Intended use of the device 

The  ABT  50  buffer  tank  is  intended  for  use  in  a  closed  heating  or 
cooling  system  in  accordance  with  EN  12828.  The  ABT  50  buffer 
tank  is  designed  for  combining  various  heat/cooling  sources  with  a 
heating/cooling system. It enables the combination of one or two so-
urces plus an electric heater.  
In the installation with heat pump, buffer guarantees an adequate flu-
id  flow  through  the  heat  exchanger.  With  air  source  heat  pumps,  it 
also ensures that there is sufficient capacity for defrosting the exten-
ral unit when required. Any use other than that indicated in point. 2.1 
is forbidden.
