How It Works!

The Packaged Storage Water Heater is designed to heat domestic hot water using existing plant steam or
hot water. The control valve regulates the heating medium through the tube bundle.
As there is a demand for domestic hot water, the temperature control bulb will sense the drop in water
temperature. The temperature bulb sends a signal to the control valve to open and allow steam or hot
boiler water into the heat exchanger tube bundle. As the steam or hot water passes through the tubes,
the domestic water in the tank is heated.
The circulator constantly circulates the domestic water over the heat exchanger coil, contributing to the
heat transfer.
