General
VPB 500 UK is a water heater which is suitable for con-
nection to heat pumps.
The water tank consists of a steel jacket, with a copper
lining to protect against corrosion. The water heater is
equipped with a copper coil of finned tube.
The water heater is designed and manufactured for a
maximum cut-off pressure of 6 bar. Maximum permitted
temperature is 95°C.
The insulation is polyurethane, which provides excellent
heat insulation. The insulation and outer shell of grey
plastic is easy to remove.
The VPB is equipped with a immersion heater connec-
tion and a submerged tube for control of water heating.
Removing part of the insulation
The backside of the insulation on VPB can be removed
in order to facilitate handling in confined spaces (this
will save 50 mm).
1.
Remove all screws along the joining plates.
2.
Lift off the top cover.
3.
Pull the insulated jacket halve straight off.
Carry out assembly in reverse order. If the screws are
difficult to fit in the old holes, the plate can be turned
upside down, which produces new holes in the insu-
lated jacket halves.
