Swithenbanks Swimming Pool Heat Exchangers. Our swimming pool heat exchangers have 1" BSP connectors for boiler (1½" BSP on the 460,000 BTU exchanger) and 1½" BSP for pool connections (2" BSP on the 460,000 BTU exchanger) as well as a sensor pocket at the top. They should be fitted downstream of the pool pump/filter unit. The procedure adopted for rating pool heat exchangers requires high flow / high temperature input. This is unrealistic of solar installations, which would not run efficiently under these conditions. Therefore it is customary to over-size pool heat exchangers when used with solar. Assuming you maintain adiquate flow rates, you can assume that the: 60,000 BTU 18kW will be suitable for up to 1x 20 tube 58mm solar panel 100,000 BTU 30kW suitable for 20 and up to 40 tubes @ 58mm solar panel 130,000 BTU 38kW suitable for 30 and up to 60 tubes @ 58mm solar panel 170,000 BTU 50kW suitable for 50 and up to 80 tubes @ 58mm solar panel 230,000 BTU 68kW suitable for 70 and up to 120 tubes @ 58mm solar panel 460,000 BTU 135kW suitable for 100 and up to 180 tubes @ 58mm solar panel Flow rates: Filter (Secondary Flow) m3/hr 60,000 = 4, 100,000 = 7, 130,000 = 9, 170,000 = 11, 230,000 = 18, 460,000 = 39 Boiler/Solar (Primary Flow) m3/hr 60,000 = 2, 100,000 = 3, 130,000 = 3, 170,000 = 4, 230,000 = 6, 460,000 = 10 If flow rates are reduced, then output should be derated accordingly. |
