VIESSMANN Vitocell 100-B CVB Series Dual-Coil Indirect-Fired Domestic Hot
Water Storage Tank
Product Information
A domestic hot water storage tank of corrosion-protected steel with built-in insulation made of PUR Foam. Fully hygienic, efficient, and economical domestic hot water production by solar collectors and a hot water heating boiler. The heat from the solar collectors is transferred to the domestic hot water via the lower tank coil.
Benefits at a glance:
- A corrosion-resistant tank with Ceraprotect enamel coating ensures a long service life. Additional cathode protection is provided by a magnesium anode.
- The entire water content is heated by a coiled 1” (25 mm) diameter steel heat exchanger surface which extends to the bottom of the tank.
- Large heat exchanger surfaces allow fast and even heating of the entire water content, guaranteeing a high level of domestic hot water comfort.
- Increased energy savings thanks to highly effective, foamed-in-place HCFC-free insulation keeping standby losses at a minimum.
- Two thermometers to show the DHW temperature at the top of the tank and at the midpoint of the tank.
- The Vitocell-B 100 119 USG (450 L) capacity tank is supplied with removable soft PET insulation for easier handling.
- For dual-mode DHW heating with solar panels in conjunction with a boiler. The solar energy gathered by the solar panels is transferred to the DHW by the lower indirect coil. For mono-mode DHW heating with a boiler or heat pump – both indirect coils can be connected in series.
- Certified to CSA Low Lead Content Certification Program; including US Safe Drinking Water Act, NSF/ANSI 372 as well as other applicable US State requirements.
Cross Section

- The upper coil is designated for connection to a hot water heating boiler or a heat pump.
- The lower coil is designated for connection to solar collector panels or heat pumps.
- When planning for the recovery rate as stated or calculated, allow for the corresponding circulation pump. The stated recovery rate is only achieved when the rated output of the boiler is equal to or greater than that stated under “Recovery rate”.
- Measured values are based on a room temperature of 68°F (20ºC) and a domestic hot water temperature of 149°F (65ºC) and can vary by 5%.
- For other dimensions, see the illustration and table on.
- Adjustable feet can be adjusted up to 2 in. (50 mm).

Heating water supply temperature over 230ºF (110ºC)
These operating conditions require the installation of an additional safety
high limit into the DHW storage tank, preventing the temperature from rising
above 203ºF (95ºC). A domestic hot water tempering valve must be used.
Temperature and pressure relief valve
A 150 psi temperature and pressure relief valve (T&P relief valve) is supplied
with the tank. The heating contractor must install the valve on each tank in a
method meeting code requirements. If local codes require a different relief
valve, substitute the manufacturer’s supplied valve. The tank is approved for
100 psi where a Canadian Registration Number (CRN) is required. The maximum
operating pressure is 150 psi. The T&P relief valve supplied with the tank is
tested under ANSI Z21.22 Code for Relief Valves and Automatic Gas Shut-off
Devices for Hot Water Supply Systems.
Backflow preventers
Where backflow preventers are required, a domestic water expansion tank
installation is recommended in the cold water inlet piping before the cold
water enters the Vitocell. For the backflow device, observe local plumbing
codes and regulations.

Warranty consideration
Viessmann DHW tanks require that the water to be heated must be of drinking
(potable) water quality and that any water treatment equipment in use must
function correctly.
Viessmann accepts no responsibility for damage howsoever caused and reserves
the right to withdraw the product warranty if the product has been improperly
installed or misapplied by the installer, contractor or final user. In order
to qualify for a product warranty, strict adherence to the installation and
service manuals must be assured.
In the event that Viessmann’s non-approved components are utilized, Viessmann
reserves the right to withdraw all expressed or implied warranties without
written notice. The water to be heated with the Vitocell must be drinking
(potable) water quality. If the tank is used to heat other media, the warranty
will be null and void. Damage resulting from excessive pressure or temperature
is clearly not the responsibility of Viessmann. The amount of chloride and
sulfate acceptable to the tank is limited. In areas where high concentrations
of chloride and sulfate are present in drinking water, please consult
Viessmann for directions. For full warranty details, please read the product
warranty sheet.
