PRODUCTS | SERVICES Swep offers new corrosion resistant range of BPHEs Sweps new range of brazed plate heat exchangers (BPHEs) are designed to keep tap water applications running efficiently for longer. The secret is Swep Sealix coating, a SiO2-based thin-film technology that increases BPHE corrosion resistance, decreases the risk of fouling and scaling and increases durability. The protective Sealix layer is applied to all inner surfaces of the BPHE exposed to drinking water. This extends the lifetime and operational safety of the unit, reducing maintenance costs.

In its range, STG-Beikirch includes the Smoke Pressure System (SPS), a potentially life-saving solution in fire-related incidents. In the event of a fire, SPS also known as overpressure ventilation systems save lives by ensuring escape and rescue routes remain smokefree for building occupants and firefighters. SPS has been deployed in a number of iconic, multi-functional high-rise commercial buildings in Germany, with more installation projects under way.

The companys low-NOx Infinity HDC 1600e external wall mounted unit (together with the interior HDC 1600i version) uses Rinnais patented pre-mix burner technology with a 14:1 turn-down ratio which it claims is the largest on the market of 58.4kW-4.05kW, and is extremely quiet in operation.

According to Viessmann, they are twice as energy efficient in terms of standby losses as the industry norm. Both new versions of the Vitocell 300-V replace the previous A-rated models, and both are suitable for domestic installations with boiler outputs up to 80kW. Higher domestic hot water demands can be accommodated by combining several Vitocell 300-V cylinders into cylinder banks, with common headers. The new 300-V combines this energy efficiency with high performance. The indirect heating coil is larger than in most common cylinders and drawn all the way down to the cylinder floor to heat the entire water content. Heat-up time from 10C to 60C is just 20 minutes for the 160L cylinder and 24 minutes for the 200L cylinder. Maximum hot water flowrates are 24L per minute and 34L per minute, respectively.

The new Acoustic Top Box and Acoustic Enclosure have been designed to reduce further the already low noise levels of the MVHR units. For homeowners the most common concern with ventilation systems is that they will create noise. To mitigate this, Vent-Axia has optimised every element of the Sentinel Kinetic range to minimise the generation and transmission of both motor and airflow noise.
