<p>A valve (1) to be fitted in a fuel/air-mixture duct (2), combustion air duct or flue duct of a heating apparatus with a burner, wherein the valve comprises a valve plate (3) arranged in the duct, which valve plate is pivotable between a closed position and an open position about a pivot (4) extending parallel to the valve plate and positioned eccentrically relative to the center of the valve plate or the duct in which it is located, so that on a first side of the pivot, the valve plate extends by a larger valve plate subsurface (3a) and on the other side of the pivot, the valve plate extends by a smaller valve plate subsurface (3b), wherein the valve is an antiresonance valve comprising a closing spring (5) adapted to exert a closing moment on the valve plate, so that it is biased in the closed position, wherein the moment of mass inertia of the valve plate is minimized, so that, in use, oscillations of the valve plate are minimized. The invention also relates to a heating apparatus having a valve according to the invention. <IMAGE></p> |
