A connection portincludes a cylindrical outer portto which downstream piping(discharge-side piping) is connected; an inner portto which upstream piping(supply-side piping) is connected, and which is provided in the outer port; and a lid memberwhich closes the inner port as well as the outer port. The inner port is provided so as to extend through the outer port from the outside of the outer port, and a heater H is provided on a portion of the inner port projecting outside the outer port.
