Storage Calorifiers.
Semi-Storage Calorifiers
High output calorifier.
Instantaneous Plate Heat exchangers
with associated Buffer vessel.
Instantaneous Plate Heat exchangers.
Domestic Instantaneous heat exchangers.
Renewable Solutions using all the above.
Storage type
max
The DHW Plate Heat exchanger with associated Buffer vessel was developed to
help reduce the need for stored water but also reduced the Boiler power
required for the exchanger.
The plate exchangers again offer instant and continuous hot water but with the
additional stored water to help the plate and buffer meet the simultaneous
peak demands.
Reduces kW power and stored water if
compared with the Instantaneous design.
Varying Combinations can be designed to
suit each project depending on project.
Cost effective to other methods when
selected correctly.
Packaged Principle takes care of the
controls/pumps required.
2 Brazed type
Use of thermostatic flow control valves, pasteurisation cycles and large DHW
return flow rates.
Flow regulation.
Thermal adjustment.
Thermal disinfection T > 70 deg.C.
