Flat Plate Systems
Flat-Plate (Pressure-Bearable) Systems
Pressure-bearable Systems suited for Potable Water Reaches temperatures of 55° – 65°C
FTP Series
The blackened aluminum absorber fins
capture solar irradiation faster, and transfers it to the water via
copper risers due to high thermal conductivity, ensuring the maximum
efficiency of heating the water. As the temperature of water in the
panel increases, it rises up to the insulated storage tank, to be
replaced by cooler water from the tank – the solar-siphon effect. The
hot water is then stored ready for your use – hot water free from the
sun!
Our latest in-house technology to weld aluminum absorber fins improves
the efficiency of our product by 15% (patent pending). Black-Chrome
plated panels (instead of standard panels) are also available on request
(see Optional Components below).
