Dutch company Triple Solar has launched a residential thermal battery with a heat loss rate ranging between 0.67 kWh/day and 0.84 kWh/day. The new product can reportedly provide hot water at temperatures ranging from 45°C to 55°C, with a minimum heat source temperature ranging from 65°C to 80°C.
Netherlands-based Triple Solar BV has launched a thermal battery for residential applications.
The manufacturer said that the thermal storage system can be used in combination with its heat pumps. “Compared to a traditional hot water boiler, the thermal battery is up to four times smaller,” he said in a statement.
Triple Solar markets the new product in three different sizes. The smallest battery measures 640mm x 365mm x 575mm and weighs 136kg. It has a heat loss rate of 0.67 kWh/day and its capacity is 167 l.
The medium device has dimensions of 870 mm x 365 mm x 575 mm, a weight of 187 kg and a capacity of 217 l. It has a heat loss rate of 0.77 kWh/day. The largest product has dimensions of 1,050 mm x 365 mm x 575 mm and weighs 233 kg. Its capacity is 333 l and it has a heat loss rate of 0.84 kWh/day.
All products operate at a maximum pressure of 10 bar and can reportedly supply hot water at temperatures ranging from 45ºC to 55ºC, with a minimum heat source temperature ranging from 65ºC to 80ºC.
“Homes and their dwellings are getting smaller and smaller. Therefore, there is often no space for a large boiler,” explains Cees Mager, COO of the company. “The thermal battery is so compact that it even fits in a kitchen cabinet.”
Triple Solar began selling the new thermal battery on October 12. The Dutch company also manufactures heat pumps and photovoltaic thermal panels. |
