Choosing the right storage tank accessories
Storage tank accessories include technical components that may be required for the integration, expansion, protection, or maintenance of storage tanks in heating systems. Depending on the type of storage tank and the system concept, different accessories are used, for example connection components, valves, sensors, insulation material, expansion vessels, safety groups, pumps, fittings, or mounting material.
Whether an accessory is suitable always depends on the specific storage tank, the heat generator, the hydraulics, and the installation situation. Especially for buffer tanks, hot water tanks, hygiene tanks, solar tanks, or heat pump tanks, connection sizes, pressure ranges, temperature ranges, and system compatibility must be carefully checked.
Advantages of suitable storage tank accessories
- Clean system integration: Suitable accessories support the professional connection of the storage tank, heat generator, and heating circuit.
- Better system overview: Connection sets, valves, and mounting components facilitate structured planning.
- Expansion and retrofitting: Depending on the system, sensors, insulation parts, or hydraulic components can be added.
- Maintenance and replacement: Storage tank accessories help with repairing, maintaining, or adapting existing storage tank systems.
Areas of application and target groups
