Description:
1. Flat-plate collector doesn't require vacuum with steady thermal performance. Perfect unity and long-term use. 2. In flat-plate collector system, water or working fluid flow in the metal pipe without touching the glass cover, so the tipe will not burst for sudden heat or sudden cold.
3. Flat-plate collector can be installed without space or be installed compactly. It not only supplies hot water but also owns the roof feature functions such as insulation, shading, water-proof and etc., which substitutes some even all of the roof materials.
4. The heat collector can be designed in various shape, size can be designed to match building materials and the structure.
5. Good pressure performance enables stability of the system. To learn more about Solar water heater services, contact us today.
Introduction of flat plate collector
Flat-plate collectors are the most common solar collectors for use in solar water-heating systems in homes and in solar space heating. A flat-plate collector consists basically of an insulated metal box with a glass or plastic cover (the glazing) and a dark-colored absorber plate. Solar radiation is absorbed by the absorber plate and transferred to a fluid that circulates through the collector in tubes. In an air-based collector the circulating fluid is air, whereas in a liquid-based collector it is usually water.
Flat-plate collectors heat the circulating fluid to a temperature considerably less than that of the boiling point of water and are best suited to applications where the demand temperature is 30-70° C (86-158° F) and/or for applications that require heat during the winter months.
Flat collectors can be mounted in a variety of ways, depending on the type of building, application, and size of collector. Options include mounting on a roof, in the roof itself, or free-standing.
