at the valve base

It refers to the pressure at the boiler side of the valve; i.e. the pressure that would be measured if the valve were removed and replaced with a pressure gauge. Depending on the dimensions of the pipework between the boiler and the valve, the pressure at the valve base may be less than the boiler pressure.
