The "Thermosyphonic Family Unit" is the most compact, simple, economic, efficient and maintenance free solar unit. No need for a pump, no control unit and no auxiliary components.

  • Hot water is available after a few hours of sunlight (no need for direct radiation).
     
  • The polyurethane insulation of the tank
    keeps water warm from day to day.
     
  • Electric back-up for bad weather.
     
  • Pollution-free and environmentally-friendly, is the clean answer for , hot water.

The basic components are:
Solar Collector
Highly-efficient selective coated absorption plate, galvanized steel or aluminum case, tempered solar glass.
Net area: 1.5 - 2.6 m2

Solar Storage Tank
3mm steel, enamel coated interior, polyester coated exterior, polyurethane insulation, electric back-up, regular or with heat exchanger (double jacket). Capacity 80 to 300 liters.

Connecting Kit:
Including fittings, no-return and safety valves and U.V. protected pipes.

Stand:
Polyester coated, galvanized steel.
An especially elegant look with our low-silhouette configuration for flat roofs. On pitched roofs the collector lays flat on the tiles and the tank is on or under the roof.

 

 

Thermosiphonic System Configuration

There are two kinds of thermosyphonic systems which may vary according to the climate:

  1. Open loop system for non-freezing warm climates:
    Cold water runs to the tank, from there to the lower part of the collector, warms up and ascends in the collector and is stored in the tank ready for use. Simplicity and economy are this system's advantages.

     

  2. Closed loop systems for continental climates:
    Based on large surface heat-exchanger. A closed circuit where hot water from the collector passes to the outer jacket of the tank (external heat exchanger) and after heat-exchanging returns to the collector to be heated again.

    Simultaneously, cold water from the city water connection runs into the tank, warms up by the heat exchanging process and from there to the user.

    The main advantages of the system lay in:

    1. the option to add an anti-freeze solution.

    2. no build-up of scaling in the collector.

ALL THERMOSYPHONIC SYSTEMS ARE SIMPLE, COMPACT AND EFFICIENT.
