The Hygienik Buffer Tank



 

The Hygienik buffer tank is a 2-in-1 layer thermal storage system: in the upper section, hot water is available for heating the drinking water. The separate lower section contains the buffer storage tank for low-temperature space heating.

The tank needs to be combined with a heat source, such as heat pumps, gas heaters or water heating fireplaces. In a special modified version of the tank it can additionally be combined with a solar thermal system.

Endless possibilities open up, how to squeeze the highest energy efficiency out of a heating system.

 

 
 
Hygienic and fresh hot water for your wellbeing
Hot water refreshes you, when you take your morning shower and relaxes you, when you take a hot bath after a long day. Hot water symbolises purity, but that can be a misconception.
All sorts of germs can accumulate in conventional hot water tanks. For more than 20 years, the Hygienik fresh water system from the IDM power family has set its own standards in hygiene: fresh water heating on demand, with large-area stainless steel heat exchangers, provides clean, healthy water for your home.
You will soon see: with the Hygienik buffer storage tank with fresh water technology, taking a shower will become one of your family's favourite pastimes.
 
 
Conventional hot water tank:
Here, the hot water stands in the tank
for long periods of time. Sludge and dirt
accumulate at the base of the tank
– the ideal breeding ground for germs.

IDM Hygienik buffer storage tank:
Hot water is only heated when you actually need it. The only water in the storage tank is for heating purposes. This means that your hot water for domestic use, such as shower and cleaning is always fresh.
 


 

The Hygienik service provides fresh hot water in seconds. Only the actual amount of water required is heated,
without storing any hot water. This prevents the formation of microorganisms such as Legionellae and other bacteria. It is good to know that the hot water you enjoy is clean.

 

Comfort through hygiene
The Hygienik is a 2-in-1 layer accumulator: in the upper section, hot heating water is available for heating the drinking water. High temperatures up to 60°C are possible, due to an additional hot gas heat exchanger. This technology decreases the condensing pressure of the heat pump signifivantly, thus optimising its energy efficiency and reducing operating costs.

As soon as the hot water in the shower, sink or washing machine is turned on, an external plate heat exchanger transfers the heat from the heating water of the tank to the drinking water in the bathroom and kitchen – quickly and hygienically.

The separate lower section contains the buffer storage tank for low-temperature
space heating and is supplied by the condenser heat exchanger of the heat pump.

The benefits to you: No additional geysers or hot water storage required,
instant hot water, preventing the formation of Legionellae and you can
shower or bathe in complete relaxation.
