Why is a expansion tank?

When heated, the boiler temperature of the liquid-coolant in it rises and the liquid expands. The liquid is practically incompressible and if the heating system is not equipped with optional device that allows to withdraw the additional amount, it will inevitably happen its destruction. To avoid this and apply expansion (compensation) tanks.

Water systems and water treatment

Tanks for water (hydraulic accumulators) - used to accumulate a certain amount of water, to be her issue at the desired pressure at the right time.

Other features tanks

Expansion tanks (like Extrol 60) may be used to prevent the destruction of the system from water hammer. Also, tanks can be used as a container with liquid in fire fighting systems, fire fighting, and as a reserve tanks in cases where electricity is turned off. Hydraulic tanks are used not only in domestic but also in industrial and agricultural water supplies. This professional series is designed for working pressure up to 16 bar.
