Spherical heat exchanger
The Thermal-Stor uses a copper finned tube spherical heat
exchanger to provide optimum solar stratified charging. The
spherical exchanger helps maintain optimal use of solar energy
for hydronic heating. The multi-functional design improves
efficiency in every system. Insulated with polyurethane foam,
the spherical heat exchanger and tank maintain a space-saving
design with minimal heat loss. Refer to FIG. 1-3 and Tables 1E
and 1F for additional spherical heat exchanger information
and measurements.
