Low Loss Header 28kW, 1" insulated
Description
ELTERM products are made of high-quality mild steel, manufactured in accordance with the highest testing and certification standards. All products are designed and welded to meet the strictest quality requirements.
.Our factory has over 30 years of experience in the heating industry. Throughout these years, we have developed and invented numerous products that have become widely used. We distribute these solutions across Europe and other continents, ensuring quality and innovation in every application.
Please note: We (Culm Stores Distribution Elterm Ltd) do not offer any products made of so-called "galvanized stainless steel." Our products are made from genuine materials that meet rigorous EU & BS safety and quality standards.
This is a modern, cost-effective solution for heating systems using Low Loss Headers (also known as Hydraulic Balancers). These components help optimize the operation of multi-boiler and multi-circuit heating systems by separating boiler circulation from heating circuits, thereby enhancing efficiency and system longevity.
Key points:
- Compatibility: All headers are tested for pressurized systems up to 10 bar.
- Functions: They balance flows automatically and incorporate desilter and air vent functions.
- Operation Modes: The balancer adjusts its operation based on the heat demand relative to the boiler’s output:
- When heat demand equals boiler output, it maintains a stable flow.
- If the demand is less, it signals the boiler to decrease power or switch off.
- If the demand exceeds the boiler’s output, it signals the boiler to increase power.
- Model Example (SHE 1"):
- Max flow: 1.8 m³/h
- Max power: 28 kW
- Temperature tolerance: up to 110°C
- Pressure: 10 bar
- Capacity: 1 l.
Advantages for investors:
- Up to 30% longer boiler service life due to protection from low return water temperature
- Increased operational comfort thanks to system desilting and aeration
- Up to 30% longer pump service life due to undisturbed mutual operation
- Quicker boiler response
- Up to 50% cost savings compared to 3- or 4-way valves
Advantages for installers:
- No system regulation needed due to automatic pump operation
- Reduced claims caused by improper system operation or air locking
- Automatic operation simplifies installation and maintenance
Available variants:
- SHE – LLH: Power ranges from 28 to 420 kW
- SHE-OC: Insulated versions (PUR foam + leatherette coating), powers from 28 to 115 kW (models with 225 and 420 kW can be insulated with ROCKWOOL if requested)
- SHE-SP: Balancers with stainless steel replaceable air separators, powers from 25 to 209 kW
Summary: Using Low Loss Headers (Hydraulic Balancers) provides a reliable, efficient, and economical solution for heating systems—contributing to longer system lifespan, improved comfort, and cost savings.
