Overview

Manufactured from two sheets of thin gauge stainless steel which are welded and then hydroformed to form multiple heat pipes within the section, the panel is unique in its design.

LASER WELD





2 sheets of stainless steel are laser welded together.



HYDRO-LO-RES





This welded assembly is then hyroformed to create 98 separate heat pipes within the 1M2 sheet.

The unique ‘wave’ formation creates a stable structure for the collector during all operational states. This also shows the high absorption and low emissivity selective coating which helps the collection of the sun’s energy through the full spectrum, during both sunny AND cloudy conditions.



Remarkably, it has the same characteristics as a flat plate, but delivers the performance of a glass tube system, without the fragility.

Our collector reacts very quickly to the sun's energy, and is capable of operating up to 150 degrees C - essential if the requirement is for solar powered air conditioning or refrigeration systems.

Thinner at only 52mm, lighter at only 23kg and measuring only one square metre, it is easy to both handle and install.

Suitable for both domestic and industrial/commercial applications, our panels can be mounted between 25 degrees and vertical, either flush into the roof structure or via a purpose built mounting system.

Whilst Domestic use includes in house water heating or swimming pools, in the commercial and industrial markets, our exceptional collector can be used for water heating, cooling and process heating (ie the heating of any fluids for use in a multitude of manufacturing processes)
