Internal tank enamelled, external white metal with powder coating, and a universal frame of 2.5 mm, set of pipes and fittings for connection.
How the system works
The tank connects to a water supply source, and cold water fills the tank’s space.
The circuit of the solar collectors will be filled with a year-round heat transfer fluid provided in the basic kit, according to the instructions. As it heats up from the sun, the heat transfer fluid will rise from the collector space to the area around the tank due to natural circulation (thermosiphon principle). The heated fluid gradually transfers its heat to the water in the tank through the common wall.
Tank protection – insulation with a thickness of 40 mm, hydraulic – safety valves in both circuits of the system.
System components
The tank of the Altek LIGERO system is made of high-quality structural steel S235JR, coated with a glass-ceramic layer. The tank has a thickened inner wall (2 mm). The solar collector circuit is designed as a “water jacket” heat exchanger, through which the year-round heat transfer fluid circulates.
The collectors of the LIGERO system are perfectly suited for use in thermosiphon systems. Technical specifications are confirmed by the Solar Keymark certificate, and quality and reliability are guaranteed by the manufacturer for a period of 5 years.
