Solar Expansion Tank

Extrol expansion tanks accept expanded fluid in closed loop hydronic systems to control pressure buildup improve comfort and help reduce energy costs.

Solar expansion tank.

All therm x trol expansion tank. This ultimately protects it from damage. When water is heated it expands due to a phenomenon known as thermal expansion. As the liquid heats up and expands the pressure of the system increase to an amount greater than the air pressure inside the expansion vessel and causes the membrane to take up more liquid to the air side.

The radiant extrol expansion tank is specifically designed for low temperature radiant flooring systems. Amtrol st 5 thermal expansion tank from the manufacturer. The expansion tank serves as a backup system to prevent overworking your plumbing. This prevents the water heater pressure relief valve from opening saves energy and eliminates a potential safety hazard.

Solar heating expansion tanks. The solar expansion tanks has a rubber membrane which separates the solar liquid loop and the other side is filled with pressurized air. Amtrol invented the thermal expansion tank to control pressure build up in closed hot water systems. The excess water volume instead of causing too much pressure on the plumbing rushes into the expansion tank and lowers the pressure in the water heater to safer levels.

35 psi pre pressurized vertical solar water heater expansion tank 120 psi model r8019681s4000000 69 77 69 77. 150 psi pre charge pressure. Solar system expansion tanks with straight thread. 35 psi pre pressurized vertical solar water heater expansion tank 120 psi model r8040681s4000000.

15 250 f max diaphragm temp. Expansion tanks are essential for solar water heater systems. A water heater expansion tank can often be replaced without having to replace your entire system. The solar extrol expansion tank is.

Expansion tanks are designed to safely absorb the excess water created and prevent relief valves from triggering. If you have more questions about water heater expansion tanks please give us a call or fill out the form below. If you have more questions about water heater expansion tanks please give us a call or fill out the form below. This helps keep the pressure consistent and relieve pressure from the piping as the working fluid increases in temperature.

Nearly seven decades after inventing the first diaphragm expansion tank amtrol s lineup now includes specialty models engineered for modern high efficiency systems. We offer a range of expansion tanks for potable and non potable applications. The red expansion tank is used for relieving pressure build up in the closed loop system. Set your store to see local availability add to cart.

What size expansion tank do i need. 35 psi max percentage of glycol.
