Fischer Aquafficient - Aqua3
Heat battery for instant electric hot water heating.
Heat battery for instant electric hot water heating. Suitable for:
Aquafficient is an innovative, modern and highly efficient solution to heating water. This instant electric water heater uses a single heating element and patented thermal storage technology, to provide instant hot water without the need for tanks. Instead, the hot water is produced from stored heat energy within a unique phase change material.
The unit stores heat in a unique phase change material, known as a heat battery. Once the battery has been fully charged, it will pass the heat energy that has been stored inside to the cold water coming into the unit.
The cold water comes into a highly efficient heat exchanger that has been embedded within the battery, and this transfer of heat only happens when hot water is called for. This instant electric water heater provides hot water until the battery is depleted. The battery will recharge itself to ensure you have access to hot water 24/7.
The instant electric hot water heater has a 'lifespan' of approximately 40,000 heating cycles which is equivalent to 50 years of use and is also supplied with a 5-year warranty.
With no requirement for additional valves or even a water discharge pipe, the installation is mess and stress-free.
The unit can store four times more heat than a domestic water cylinder and provides up to 370 Litres of hot water at 40 degrees centigrade, depending on the size of the unit installed. The product is half the height of an average water cylinder making it a discreet electric heater for hot water to residential housing, businesses and other commercial projects.
Compatible with Economy 7, Solar PV and other renewable electricity sources, helping to reduce carbon emissions.
Power is supplied to the Heat Battery via the Double pole isolating Switch, 16A (minimum). The Heat Battery will remain in operation whilst it is connected to the mains. The Heat Battery will switch off if disconnected from the power supply.
