The Solar Pump Station |
|
The Pump Station forms the basis for a Closed Loop system. It circulates a Water/Glycol mixture to the collectors and back to a heat exchanger, where it transfers the heat to the potable (drinkable) water loop for storage and use. In a closed loop system, there are two “loops”, or piping circuits. The “solar loop” travels to the solar collector and back, and the “potable loop” draws water from the storage tank and returns it warmer. The two loops are separate and do not mix, but both connect to the Pump Station where the heat is transferred from the solar to the potable loop. For the solar loop, the unit contains the heat exchanger, a circulator pump, pressure/temperature gauge, fill/drain valve, pressure relief valve, and check valve. For the potable loop, the unit contains the heat exchanger and a circulator pump.Animated Graphic |
