DSE FLEX – Compact Substation
General description and
application
Maximum operating
parameters
New generation subst ation is suitable for the already
proven flexible, efficient and economical infrastructure of a low carbon cit y, a District Heating net work.
Danfoss district heating substations provides the
link between dis trict heating suppliers and customer
installations. They contain all the necessary equipment to adjust the heat supplied for the needs of
the object premises as specified in the heating
supply contract. In this respect they must comply
with all applicable st andards and with the supplier’s
technical connection conditio ns. Indirect conne ctions (in which district heating and in-house systems
are hydraulically isolated) incorporate components
that separate the systems (he at exchanger), limit the
flow volume to that specified in the contract, regulate the secondary sup ply temperature and measure
energy consumption. It is a an exclusive solution
designed to optimally fulfil specific requests and
stringent requirements for district heating. By use
of the Danfoss dimensioning program you can find
out if the application you need fits DSE FLEX. The
new generation substation is designed to be floor
mounted, is keeps the robustness and friendly /
appealing outlook of the old product with the
advantage of a lighter profile, smaller size and designed for a faster and safer transport.

Function
The DSE FLEX platform can be used for various
applications such as heating, domestic hot water
and / or other water based heating system. Due
to its flexibility, it is possible to deliver a 1-, 2- or
3-circuit substation with possibility to make combinations between modules if more circuits are
required. This is based on customer requests and
the needed application(s). The construction
allows easy access to all components for maintenance and servicing purposes. Heat transfer
between the district heating network and the
building installation is achieved by way of a micro
plate heat exchanger, which ensures better heat
transfer, higher energy efficiency and reduced
pressure loss. In addition to the standard controller functions, the ECL310 offers easy remote
access via an internet page with data logging possibilities and energy optimization functions such
as weather compensation and auto-tuning (adaptive settings for domestic hot water parameters).

These are only few examples of all the possible combinations. Depending on the customer requirements, type of heat exchangers, application, DN
combinations, etc. the dimensions may vary. Depth dimension C is considered for 2 and 3 circuit stations. Height dimension B is considered with the
electrical box in the minimum height position and the heating pump on the return line.
