This guide provides an overview of the general principles for the safe installation of a accumulator tank. A properly installed tank operates safely, lasts a long time, and functions as intended by the system. Errors\u2014such as missing pressure relief, leaks, or air trapped in the system\u2014can damage the system or pose a hazard. Review the following points and follow them; always take into account the instructions for each specific device and local requirements as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When lifting and installing the storage tank, use appropriate and necessary lifting and handling equipment. Make sure that the lifting equipment is rated for the load and that the tank is securely fastened throughout the entire moving process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
To compensate for pressure fluctuations, always install an expansion tank<\/strong> with a capacity of at least 10\u201320%<\/strong> of the total volume of the accumulator tank, heat source, and heat transfer fluid. Without a sufficiently large expansion tank, the system cannot safely accommodate pressure fluctuations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Always install a safety valve<\/strong> on the accumulator tion tank with an opening pressure equal to or lower than the pressure indicated on the tank\u2019s label. The safety valve must never be set higher than the pressure specified on the label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Install the storage tank in accordance with the system design and specifications. The locations and configuration of the connections must comply with the system requirements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After installation and filling, do the following before putting the system into service:<\/p>\n\n\n\nSafety valve<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
