FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What is the SKU for this unit?

The 3000 L unit is part of the KS100 industrial range; the exact SKU is confirmed against configuration, material and electrical loading.

What electrical loading does a 3000 L unit need?

48 kW – 84 kW, stepped control is the usual range, and staged recovery; 6 hours at 84 kw plus secondary heat source. Loading is built to order, so cabling and protection must be checked before an upgrade.

Vertical or horizontal?

Horizontal, floor-standing, multi-vessel banks common. Horizontal vessels are chosen where plantroom head height or door access rules out a vertical unit.

Mild steel or stainless steel?

Mild steel with Carboguard 545 or glass-flake epoxy lining is the standard, cost-effective option. Stainless steel is specified where water quality, hygiene requirements or expected service life justify it.

What working pressure is it rated to?

Up to 400 kPa as standard, with a 600 kPa option. Over-pressure and over-temperature safety valves are fitted, and the expansion arrangement is checked at every service.

Is 3000 L enough for our site?

Sizing follows peak draw-off, not daily total. Large institutional and industrial plant, usually banked with heat pumps or boilers. If your peak exceeds that, vessels are banked or the loading increased rather than simply swapping to the next size up.
