Tubes can be rotated for optimum

alignment with the sun.

In a heat pipe vacuum tube, heat

capture d by the absorbe r evaporates

the water in the heat pipe, whi ch rises

to the cond enser. Heat is trans ferred

to the solar fl uid circu lating throug h the

header, where it condenses.

The Vitosol 200-T, SPE is ideal for fl at

roof installations or large arrays.

Clean and dependable solar heating

As the cleanest, most abundant and easily

accessible form of energy on earth, solar

energy is the per fect addition to any heating

system − whether for domestic hot water,

pool heating or to supplement your space

heating or cooling loads. Putting the sun to

work saves you as much as 60% on your

hot water bill or up to 25% when using solar

energy for hot water and space heating.

High performance design

Vacuum tube collectors achieve excellent

results, not just year-round, but par ticularly

in cold and windy conditions. The collectors’

absorbers are located inside vacuum tubes,

which, much like a thermos, have excellent

insulating qualities and prevent heat loss.

Solar energy is captured by a selective

surface coated copper absorber sheet inside

the evacuated glass tubes. With highly

effi cient heat pipe vacuum tubes such as

those on the Vitosol 200-T, the captured heat

evaporates water inside a heat pipe, which

then rises to a condenser. Fully encapsulated

condensers inside a cast aluminum block

(SPE) or integrated within a Duotec double

pipe stainless steel heat exchanger (SP2A)

transfer the heat to the circulating solar fl uid.

Combined with highly-effective thermal

insulation in the header casing, these designs

ensure extremely effi cient heat transfer and

minimize additional heat loss.

Flexible mounting options

From residential homes to large commercial

and industrial systems, the Vitosol 200-T

provides numerous installation possibilities.

The Vitosol 200-T can be installed on sloped

or fl at roofs, horizontally (laying fl at) or

freestanding. On sloped roofs, collectors

may be positioned vertically (tubes at right

angles to roof ridge) or horizontally (tubes

parallel to roof ridge). The Vitosol 20 0-T,

SP2A adds a horizontal wall mounting option

and is available in a 10-tube model designed

for installation on balcony railings or walls.

The Vitosol 200-T, SP2 A is available in 10,

12 and 24-tube models, while the Vitosol

200 -T, SPE is offered in 9 and 18-tube

versions. In commercial applications, up

to 96 tubes of the Vitosol 200 -T, SP2A or

108 tubes of the Vitosol 200 -T, SPE can

be easily connected in a single array with

quick-connect fi ttings and easy-to-use,

pre-engineered mounting systems.

Easy installation

Roof-mounted

systems with rafter brackets,

angled frames or wall-mounting brackets

simplify installation, saving both time and

money. Flexible pipes with O-rings enable

quick connections, and a connection set

with compression fi ttings enables the

collector array to be readily connected to

the pipes of the solar circuit. A temperature

sensor is fi tted into a sensor well built into

the collector header. New retaining caps

prevent the tubes from slipping off during

installation and maintenance; if service is

required, “dr y connections” allow individual

tubes to be replaced quickly and easily

without draining the system.
