The FHR/FHR-B Manifold is used for controlling
water flow in under floor heating systems. Each
tube of the floor heating system is connected to
the manifold, thus making it possible to control
water flow or heat supply to each in the building
individually.
The manifold consists of a supply and return manifold. The manifold is supplied in modules of 2 to 8
outlets. The end pieces are placed at the end of the
manifold.
Two types in this series are provided:
Typ e FHR. The supply manifold includes possibility
for individual shut-off of each circuit. The return
manifold is equipped with integrated pre-setting
valves securing optimal hydraulic balance in the
system. The valves can be controlled electronically
by thermal actuators with RA connection.
Typ e FHR-B. The supply and return mani fold include
shut off function for each loop.

Capacity / commissioning
Capacity
The pre-setting of the manifold valves determines
the flow in the floor heating tubes and is therefore
an important factor for obtaining optimal hydraulic balance in the system.
A correct hydraulic balance is important if optimal
comfort shall be achieved with a minimum of
energy consumption and is easily carried out following the example shown below.
Example
Room 1:1. Determine longest tube/largest room 25 m
2. Desired cooling (ΔT)10 °C (typical)
3. Determine heat requirement for the room150 W/m
4. Conversion factor 1,16
5. Calculation of flow for the room
