AEV Expansion Tanks

« Back

Summary
ApplicationsClosed Loop Heating and Cooling circuits
Description
Expansion tanks use compressed air to maintain system pressures by accepting and expelling the changing volume of water as it heats and cools. Diaphragm or bladder tank designs isolate the expanded water from the pressure controlling air cushion – which is pre-charged at the factory and can be adjusted in the field to meet final system requirements
Materials
- Carbon steel tank with Butyl Bladder, Rubber Diaphragm
Performance RangeAEV LD – up to 6 bar, AEV MB - 10 bar and AEV HB -16 bar applications.
Temperature
-10 to 100 deg C
Size
8 Liters to 1000 liters

ADEPT Select

Low operating cost and risk

Nitrogen gas filling for longer retention of pre-charge
Stabilizes system pressure, maintaining optimum levels of a critical operating parameter.
Eliminates air ingress and dampens pressure transients (water hammer) for reduced system corrosion and stress, ultimately extending service intervals and overall system life

The fixed bag-type diaphragm prevents the water to come in contact with the bare steel of the vessel
