Description

The TCF025 bench allows the study of a home heating system; it consists of a production system (floor-standing gas boiler), a circuit with control valve with three-way valve and an electrical box incorporating a digital heating controller. The boiler heats the circuit water at a fixed temperature and the three-way valve adjusts the starting temperature based on the parameters set by the students (heating curve, outside temperature). Students will first make the system commissioning (impoundment ...) then make basic measurements to validate the operation. They can then make a more complete study of the system using the integrated instrumentation (thermal balance, study of the regulation ...) and the proposed optional modules.

The robust design of this device makes it suitable for use in schools.
The equipment is set up on an Anodized aluminium frame on casters wheels. This gives it great strength and a flexibility of integration into your premises. The manufacture of this equipment complies with the European machine directive.
This equipment can be used alone or with other compatible equipment from our range (see last section of this document).

The bench consists of the following elements:

1.     A floor-standing condensing gas boiler, power 23KW

2.     A heating safety valve calibrated at 3 bar with manometer

3.     A safety pressure switch lack of water

4.     A flowmeter 160-1600L/h on the hot water of the boiler

5.     A dial thermometer 0/120°C on the hot water of boiler

6.     A three-way valve with servo electric motor installed in mixture

7. A flowmeter 160-1600L/h on the mixing branch of the three-way valve

8. A water pump 25-80 with pressure measurement kit

9. A dial thermometer 0/120°C on the hot water circuit towards the dissipation

10. An injection pot volume 12L with insulation valves, drain valve and air vent valve

11. A differential pressure valve
