What it is

The Sime 5139140 is a 1.6 litre expansion vessel with a 3/8 inch male connection. It is used in Sime gas boilers to absorb pressure changes in the sealed heating system. This component helps maintain stable system pressure as water expands and contracts.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • System pressure rises quickly when the boiler is running
  • Pressure relief valve discharges water
  • Boiler pressure drops repeatedly and needs topping up
  • Pressure gauge shows large fluctuations between cold and hot
  • Visible corrosion or water at the vessel connection

Before you order

  • Confirm your appliance model and GC number against the Fits list
  • Check the existing vessel has a 3/8 inch male connection
  • Verify the required capacity is 1.6 litre for your appliance
  • Check for any system pressure issues that may indicate other faults
