Information regarding design and operation
Note
As contact protection, Viessmann stagnation coolers (see page 106)
are equipped with a plate without flow due to the anticipated high tem-
perature on the surface. When using commercially available radiators,
contact protection must be provided and the connections must be dif-
fusion-proof. All components must be able to withstand temperatures
of up to 180 °C.

Expansion vessel

For layout, function and specification of the expansion vessel, see
chapter "Installation accessories".
The expansion vessel can be calculated once the steam spread has
been determined and any heat sinks that may be used have been
taken into consideration.
The required volume is determined by the following factors:
■ Expansion of the heat transfer medium in its liquid state
■ Liquid seal
■ Expected steam volume, taking account of the static head of the
system
■ Pre-charge pressure

Selection of the expansion vessel
The details in the following table are standard values. They allow quick
estimates at the design and calculation stage. These values must be
verified by appropriate calculations. The selection relates to system
hydraulics with a liquid "bag" (see page 152) and to the use of a 6-bar
safety valve.
