    well

    If I'm correct it's for balancing hot water zones in a house with no zone valves. If one area warms up too fast you can back that zone down a bit.

    .

    we had a customer that had something like this. IIRC, the big pipe goes to the return. I think there is a pipe that goes to a supply, and the others go to the zones. Kind of a balancer/ thermal shock preventer sort of thingy.

    was looking for a replacement for this on an earlier posting. Check the older posts for a replacement, if it is needed
