Altecnic
Buffer Tank For Heating Pumps 12l - 569012 569012
Altecnic intermediate vessels are manufactured to meet the requirements of the Directive and Regulations listed and are suitable for heating and solar systems.
An expansion vessel must ensure the heating/cooling system can work safely, particularly during periods when hot water is not being drawn off.
The water in the system can reach temperatures up to 200°C and consequently the fluid within the system can either evaporate or reach levels that can damage all the components within the energy system over time.
In the event that the diaphragm within the expansion vessel could be subjected to temperatures above 110 ̊C, an intermediate vessel (VDI6002 directive) must be provided to protect the diaphragm.
Application
Intermediate vessels should be installed in closed solar or heating systems containing water treated to prevent corrosion.
If the return temperature in solar installation exceeds 100 ̊C or in a heating system exceeds 70 ̊C an intermediate vessel should be installed.
The intermediate vessel should be installed between the heat/cooling source and the expansion vessel.
The function of the vessel is to avoid premature ageing of the diaphragm in the expansion vessel caused by water entering the diaphragm at too high a temperature.
The intermediate vessel holds a quantity of water which is allowed to cool and it is this cooled water which enters the expansion vessel.
