Three New Cylinders Added to Aquarea Range
29/10/2015
Panasonic has introduced three new hot water cylinders to its Aquarea heat pump range. The new cylinders have been designed and developed with the UK’s growing heat pump market in mind. Implementing HCFC free EnviroFoam insulation, these cylinders offer some of the lowest levels of standing losses on the market, whilst also achieving an environmentally friendly solution, attaining an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of zero and an industry leading Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 0.5.
"To ensure performance and restrict energy losses to a minimum, our new cylinders have been specially developed to avoid pressure loss whilst maximising the heat exchange surface area,” explains Marc Diaz, UK & Ireland Country Manager for Panasonic Heating and Cooling Solutions. “Our Aquarea range of cylinders is designed to offer specifiers and installers a wide choice, providing options to suit any home and hot water requirement.”
Panasonic’s unvented cylinders work with the existing Aquarea heat pump range. Manufactured in the UK, the cylinders are designed to simplify installations and to deliver on-site time savings. The cylinders are all supplied with compression fittings and locating bosses, a G3 kit, temperature sensor, 3-way valve, 90° draw-off elbow and lift up pressure relief valve, ensuring ease of install.
The heat pump cylinders - PAW-TE18E3STD-UK, PAW-TE30E3STD-UK and the PAW-TE18C2E3HI-UK - have an increased heat exchanger to maximise the lower temperature available from the heat pump. Most heat pumps will not raise the stored temperature to above 60°c, which is necessary to prevent the growth of legionella. To help prevent this, these cylinders have an increased size of up to four square metres to maximise the heat exchange. These cylinders are also supplied with an immersion heater and thermostat.
