This system comes with a non toxic substance composed of distilled water similar to Glycol (Anti-freeze) in the heat pipes. it will never freeze.
This type of unit is used in the Antarctic missions for its efficient technology to heat the water faster and keep it hot for long periods of time under extreme weather conditions.
The Vacuum Glass Tubes with the Heat Pipes work under the day light, transforming this energy to heat the coil exchanger thousands of times, keeping the tank as a thermal store; therefore, heating the water very efficiently.
How it works?
It uses the principle that at sea level the water boils at 100C (212F) but if you climb to the top of a mountain the boiling temperature of the water is less than 100C (212F) due to the difference in the atmospheric air pressure.
Based on this principle we achieve the same results evacuating the air from the tubes. This results in that the collector boils the water at less than 30C (86F) with distilled water and other components inside the heat pipes, and every time the heat pipe is heated by the sun light at this temperature the water vaporizes. This vapor rapidly rises to the top of the pipes transmitting energy, and when the vapor reaches this point, this energy heat is transmitted to the tank condenser. As the heat is transmitted to the coil condenser, the vapor condenses to form a liquid and returns to the bottom of the heat pipe to repeat the process hundreds of times.
In order to have a clear idea of how fast your water will heat,
your tap water temperature even in the coldest cities of the US like New York, Chicago, etc is (40F~45F) in the US South, like Miami, Dallas, etc. it is warmer, around 65F. Why? because the pipes are under 5 to 6ft underground which keep it warmer spite of the weather conditions above ground could be colder.
You have to take into consideration that the safety water temperature used in water heaters to take a shower without suffering burns is between (105F~115F ) The differences in the temperatures enable the system to achieve hot water much faster.
Since the system boils the water at 86F, that means as soon as the tap water comes in contact with the coil exchanger in the tank it becomes hot to your desired temperature, managed by a sensor in the tank and the digital controller unit.
Thermal Tank
This type of Solar Water Heater provides mains pressure via a high effective
copper coil heat exchanger (200 Feet long) located in the tank, it works as a
close loop system. The Heat exchanger inside the tank provides more than 15 sqf2
of heat transfer area. After connecting the main pressure water tap into the
copper inlet coil, when the outlet valve is open, the water flows through the
coil absorbing heat from the water inside the solar collector tank.
The solar collector tank is therefore a thermal store.
When people turn on the tap, there is immediately hot water and the water is so
clean because the water in use is directly from the tap, not from the tank.
Features:
• Two layers of vacuum tubes and one absorber fin to ensure high absorption and
conductivity.
• Heat conducted by the medium inside heat pipe transfers the heat faster and
more efficiently.
• Reliable high pressurized water inner tank of 1.5 mm thickness and 55 mm of
insulation to lockup the temperature.
• Freeze proof. Since there is no water in the vacuum tubes it will not freeze -
ever. It will not affect the efficiency of the heat transfer
• A couple of hours of daylight are enough to have a permanent hot water supply
even on rainy and cloudy days. Since the glass vacuum tubes absorb infra-red and
ultraviolet rays.
• Since the vacuum tubes have a circular shape always the sun is striking their
rays perpendicular to the tubes
• The sealed glass evacuated tube provides a stable supply of heat even during
intermittent weather. There is minimal “peaking and toughing” of heat supply as
the clouds intermittently block the sunlight. Heat supply can therefore continue
even when there is no sunlight striking the collector, due to the store of heat
within the evacuated tube.
• If a tube breaks there is no water leak
• If a tube breaks it can be easily replaced without the system having to be
shut down.
• No lime or water scale.
• Turn on the tap, there is immediately hot water and the water is so clean
because it uses the water directly from the tap, not from the tank
• When you take a shower you feel the pressure of the water, like feeling a
relaxing and powerful massage.
• Thermal tank keeps the water hot up to 3 days if there is rain or cloudy days.
• Electric backup heater of 1500W. A useful if weather condition does not
improve.
• Digital Solar Water Temperature controller to keep your water hot at your temperature
desired.
• Free maintenance.
• DIY Installation easy to follow step by step.
• Can be installed on Ground , Flat Roof or Pitched Roof facing the South.
• Easy Dissambled in case of Hurricane Protection.
• 15~ 20 years life span.
