What it is

The Worcester Bosch 87161425040 is a 10 litre expansion vessel used in Worcester oil-fired appliances. It sits on the heating circuit and absorbs the volume change of the system water as it heats and cools, holding the pressure steady and protecting other components from unnecessary strain. This is the vessel specified for a range of Danesmoor oil system boilers.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • System pressure rises quickly when the boiler heats up and falls again once it cools
  • The pressure relief valve discharges during normal running
  • Water is heard or seen escaping from the Schrader valve on the vessel
  • The vessel feels heavy or waterlogged when the valve is depressed
  • Frequent topping up of system pressure is needed to keep the boiler running

Before you order

  • Confirm the GC number and appliance model against the compatibility list before ordering
  • Check the vessel's physical size and connection against the one being removed, as space in the casing is tight
  • Note the previous part number ZMMIS082 when matching against older documentation
  • Work on the appliance should be carried out by a competent engineer, with the system drained and isolated first
