Product information

  • Improved efficiency on split temperature systems due to high and low temperature return connections.

  • Non-dependent on system flow allowing wide differential temperatures.

  • Easier installation with no requirement for dedicated primary circuit and no minimum flow rates.

  • Tolerant to a wide range of system water conditions with a corrosion resistant stainless steel heat exchanger.

  • Long life backed up by a 5-year heat exchanger warranty.

  • Well insulated for low standby losses.

  • NOx emissions comply with ErP legislation lower than 56mg/kWh.

  • Match heating system loads accurately with outputs up to 637kW from a single boiler and ability to cascade multiple boilers.

  • Simplified flue system design as the flue gas non-return valve is built in to provide effective protection from re-circulation of flue gases through non-firing boilers.

  • Built in boiler sequence controls capable of controlling up to 16 boiler modules, multiple heating circuits and a hot water circuit using the master/slave principle.

  • Quick release access panels for ease of service and maintenance.

  • BIM objects available to assist in design and management.
