UNIQ HEAT BATTERIES REFERENCE MANUAL_V2.3
2.
Technical Specifications
The standard models of the Sunamp heat batteries are supplied with PCM58 and these heat batteries can be used with
any heat source which can run at flow temperature greater than 65
o
C. The discharge temperature from these standard
heat battery models will be between 52 and 55
o
C.
The overall dimensions and weights of the heat battery models in the
UniQ
range are listed in table 2.1 and their technical
specification is listed in table 2.2. The pressure loss characteristics of the heat batteries are tabulated in tables 2.3a, 2.3b,
2.3d, 2.3e. The standard and optional equipment supplied with the heat batteries is listed in table 2.4.
