In-Line Hydronic Manifold Systems for Compact & Efficient Fluid Distribution


Overview – Compact Control for Modern Heating & Cooling Systems

Jiangsu Easywell Smart Products Co., Ltd. presents a high-performance range of in-line manifolds, engineered to optimize fluid distribution in industrial, commercial, and HVAC systems.
As a compact extension of Easywell’s hydronic control solutions, these manifolds — including premium carbon steel and durable steel models — are designed to deliver precise flow control, pressure balance, and seamless integration with various heating, cooling, and water circulation systems.

These in-line manifolds are the perfect solution for retrofit projects, wall-mounted boilers, modular HVAC systems, or tight mechanical rooms where space and performance matter most.


Material Excellence & Structural Performance


Crafted from high-grade carbon steel, stainless steel, or brass, Easywell’s in-line manifolds ensure exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and flow stability.
Each manifold undergoes precision machining to provide smooth internal flow paths, minimizing turbulence and improving energy efficiency.


MaterialKey FeaturesTypical Application
Carbon SteelHeavy-duty design, pressure-resistant, corrosion-treated finishIndustrial boilers, district heating, high-flow HVAC systems
Steel (Standard)Cost-effective, reliable performance, quick installationCommercial and residential heating systems
Stainless SteelMaximum corrosion resistance, hygienic surfaceMarine, food processing, and humid environments

Carbon steel manifolds deliver superior performance in demanding applications,
while standard steel models are ideal for general HVAC or plumbing installations.

Installation Guide – Step by Step


Step 1. Preparation

  • Check all ports for debris or thread damage.

  • Confirm circuit count and pipe diameter with the system design.

Step 2. Mounting

  • Secure the manifold horizontally with M8–M10 anchors.

  • Ensure level positioning for even pressure distribution.

Step 3. Connection

  • Apply PTFE tape or anaerobic sealant to all threads.

  • Tighten fittings without over-torquing; use wrench support.

Step 4. Pressure Test

  • Test at 1.5× working pressure for at least 30 minutes.

  • Inspect all joints for leaks.

Step 5. Balancing

  • Open each circuit valve halfway; fine-tune using flow meters after filling the system.


How to Choose the Right In-Line Manifold?


1️⃣ Determine Flow & Circuit Requirements
– Identify how many branches or loops you need (typically 2–8).

2️⃣ Define Your Application
– Heating → carbon steel or stainless steel.
