Flat buffer tank IVAR.PUFFER 50 KOMPAKT – 50 l, for heating and cooling – SALE
Code: IVAPUF50KRelated products
Product detailed description
The IVAR.PUFFER 50 KOMPAKT (code IVAPUF50K) is an ultra-flat buffer tank with a 50 l capacity for heating and cooling systems. Two heat sources, such as a heat pump and a gas boiler, connect on the primary side and two distribution boiler modules on the secondary side – so the tank also works as a hydraulic separator.
Design
- two chambers divided by a partition plus an internal zone separator for optimum stratification
- heat pump connection for flow rates up to 4.5 m³/h, using the full tank volume
- 6/4" socket for an electric heating element up to 3 kW, for example where no boiler is available
- 4 × 5/4" for the primary heat sources, 4 × 1" for the boiler modules or a magnetic dirt separator kit
- S235 steel with cataphoresis coating, 40 mm EPP insulation (λ 0.034 W/mK)
Installation and accessories
The tank hangs on the wall on the supplied bracket; by turning it through 180° you can choose a left or right connection, provided flow and return stay correctly connected. Also supplied are an automatic air vent, a 1/2" male sensor pocket, gaskets, screws and 6/4" plugs. Options include the IVAR.DIRT 50 magnetic dirt separator kit, plug and fitting sets and 1500, 2000 or 3000 W heating elements. Before commissioning, the manufacturer recommends flushing the entire system thoroughly.
