Solar heating for a nursery home
This solar thermal system, measuring 70 m² in size, serves to heat domestic water and support heating.
For this nursery home in Hude, Germany, a 70 m2 large solar thermal system with vacuum tube collectors was installed, which loads into a specifically designed 4000-litre buffer. Both withdrawal from and stratification into the buffer occurs based on demand and current temperatures of the strata, which guarantees optimal usage of heat.
Controllers
Two UVR16x2 serve as universal controllers for the system, which also control buffer withdrawals and heat distribution across two heating circuits. These two controllers also activate a gas boiler and a ventilation system.
Monitoring
Thanks to wide-ranging monitoring, including output of error messages, “Weser Solar” is informed via e-mail about any problems in a timely manner. Remote access to the whole system via C.M.I. is always available. This allowed optimisation and adjustments based on logged data, even after implementation and during operation.
