Description; The Design Of Suitable Volume And Tank Installation - Nibe UKV 300 Operating And Installation Manual

1 DESCRIPTION

UKV are storage tanks designed to replenish heating water in heating systems with heat pumps, and also for
heat pumps with cooling. Using UKV storage tanks ensures that the heat pump operates completely
smoothly, eliminating the number of heat pump compressor starts and extending the service life of the heat
pump.
The tanks are produced in volumes of 300 and 500 liters. The tanks are made of steel, with the inner surface
untreated. The individual versions are also fitted with two G 1½" mm sockets with the option to install a series
TJ 6/4" electric heating element. The tanks are insulated with 50 mm-thick polyurethane foam. A plastic
casing (hardened polystyrene) is fitted onto the tank.
2 THE DESIGN OF SUITABLE VOLUME AND
TANK INSTALLATION
An ideal size of the storage tank is designed by a design engineer, or a person sufficiently qualified to design
heating systems.
Product assembly must be implemented by an authorized person (confirmed in the warranty certificate).
Installation basics
The UKV storage tank is designed as a stationary tank to be mounted vertically on a solid floor.
The tanks are not designed for storing domestic hot water.
The appliance has to be mounted at a convenient place, it means that the appliance must be
easily available for potential necessary maintenance, repair or replacement, as the case may
be.
