ESBE VTR300 Thermostatic Control Units Circulation Set User Guide
Introduction
The ESBE circulation set series VTR300 and VTR500 offers an easy installation of HWC (hot water circulation). With non-return valves and all needed connections included, the installer can rest assured that the installation is made not only faster but also with guaranteed performance. The VTR300 and VTR500 comes with a custom tailored insulation shell to prevent any unnecessary heat losses, especially important in HWC systems.
OPERATION
The Circulation Set offers instantly available hot water, scald protection and comfort in a compact and efficient way. Using only thermostatic components (non-electrical) the unit is completely independent and provides very easy installation, with connections and check valves included.
If a hot water circulation system is not properly insulated, energy may be lost as heat radiation occurs continuously from uninsulated pipes and fittings. VTR300/VTR500 comes with an insulation that is easy to assemble and which can be opened and re-assembled without loss of function.
Insulation is also a safety feature to prevent burn injuries.
FUNCTION
To get access to hot-water at a tap without waiting, an HWCpipe with circulation pump should be installed and each tap connected to the HWC-pipe. The recirculation can be built up in several different ways where the challenge is to ensure that the correct temperature is available at the tap without losing energy. If the system is installed incorrectly the stratification in the accumulation tank can be lost.
To simplify for the installer to make the installation correctly the ESBE VTR300/VTR500 has all components needed included. Just connect the Circulation Set to the tank and the HWC-circuit.
