C3 - Large-scale DHW System with Standby Tank and Heat Exchanger
The collector array heats the buffer tank. If the draw-off flow rate rises above a limit value, the discharge pump of the buffer tank (primary loop) is started up. The solar energy from the buffer tank is delivered to the standby tank via the external heat exchanger. If the temperature in the standby tank is not higher than its desired temperature, the tank is heated to the desired temperature by the auxiliary heating.
The system consists of the following components:
