PRESENTATION

Water accumulation tanks CAS, CAS-S, CAS-B and CAS-BS are manufactured with the most modern welding technology, made from high quality steel. They are made in several different volumes (325, 465, 727, 920, 1426, 2122, 2960,3820 and 5022 litres) and four different versions: water accumulation tank (CAS), with inbuilt tube heat exchanger for solar collector connection (CAS-S), with inbuilt stainless steel domestic hot water (DHW) tank (CAS-B), and with inbuilt stainless steel DHW tank and tube heat exchanger (CAS-BS). We highly recommend You to follow our technical manual with attention which brighten the construction, operation, installation and maintenance of the water accumulation tank in order to assure a long life and proper operation condition of the product.

USE

Accumulation tanks CAS, CAS-S, CAS-B and CAS-BS are intended for accumulation of energy (for example in the central heating systems with solid fuel boilers for accumulation of thermal energy) and provide more economical and efficient operation of the system in which they are installed. Lot of versions of the water accumulation enables simultaneously use of more renewable energy sources what makes them ecologically and energetic very acceptable.

STATUS AT DELIVERY

For easier transport and positioning into boiler room, accumulation tanks CAS, CAS-S, CAS-B and CAS-BS are not supplied with built-in thermal insulation but separately as follows: – the body of the accumulation tank on a wooden pallet (the body of the accumulation tank 3003, 4003 and 5003 does not come on a wooden pallet) – thermal insulation packed in a protective PVC foil, rossete packed in PVC bag

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT

SENSOR INSTALLATION

Insert the temperature sensor(s) under the sensor holder at the height where you want the sensor measure the accumulation tank temperature.

FLOW RESISTANCE OF CAS, CAS-S, CAS-B, CAS-BS

INSTALLATION

Accumulation tanks CAS, CAS-S, CAS-B and CAS-BS are delivered on a wooden pallet. Before placing the accumulation tank in the boiler room it needs to be removed from the wooden pallet. Installation and assembly of accumulation tank and installation of additional equipment on the tank
must be performed by a qualified person. Accumulation tank need to be placed on a horizontal solid foundation for the anticipated load that causes the full weight of the accumulation tank. Boiler room must be protected from freezing. Accumulation tank has to be positioned so that it can be properly connected and simultaneously, enabling tending of accumulation tank control during operation. For mounting of thermal insulation on the accumulation tank see ”Technical instructions for installation of thermal insulation and jacket for accumulation tank CAS, -S, -B, -BS” which are delivered with thermal insulation of the tank.

LABEL WITH BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE PRODUCT

Figure 2. Position of the label on the accumulation tank

The accumulation tank label is in the plastic bag along with the technical documentation. The label must be placed to the bottom of the accumulation tank body during the mounting the thermal insulation (see Figure 2).

INSTALLATION OF THE ACCUMULATION TANK TO CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
Connection of the accumulation tank to central heating system should be done by recommendation and schematic drawing from boiler (heat source) manufacturer, according to this technical manual and good technical practice.

CONNECTION OF THE ACCUMULATION TANK CAS-B AND CAS-BS TO WATER SUPPLY

INSTALLATION

Connection of stainless steel domestic hot water (DHW) tank positioned in the accumulation tank CAS-B / CAS-BS to water supply installation has to be done by an expert professional and all installation works have to be performed in accordance with available technical standards (Scheme 1.). Cold sanitary water supply line has to be connected to connection (9) (Scheme 1.) (connection 3/4”) and the connection (7) (Scheme 1) (connection 3/4”) is intended for disposal of hot sanitary water. Connection for circulation line (8) (connection 3/4”) is located on the right side of the cold water connection.
The following has to be installed at the entry of supply line of cold sanitary water in DHW tank:

• expansion vessel for sanitary water;
• safety valve with opening pressure of 6 bar;
• reducing valve which reduces cold sanitary water pressure to 4 bar (if its pressure is higher);
• non-return valve.

Scheme 1. Example of installation accumulation tank CAS-BS to water supply system

1 – Accumulation tank CAS-B/CAS-BS
2 – Expansion vessel for sanitary water
3 – Safety valve with opening pressure 6 bar
4 – Non-return valve

• 5 – Pressure reducing valve
  6 – Stop valve| 7 – Hot sanitary water
  8 – Circulation
  9 – Cold sanitary water
  ** 10 – Thermal 3-way mixing valve for sanitary water
  11 – Sensor tube
  12 – Connection 6/4″ (female thread)
