Latento Solar Cylinders

Latento solar cylinders are setting the bar in terms of innovation in the design of cylinders used in solar thermal water systems. These brand new solar cylinders are not only capable of vastly superior heat collection and retention but they are designed with ease of installation in mind as their square shape allows for the maximum use of space in tight fitting hot presses and utility rooms.

Technical Specifications

On top of all that’s mentioned above the main body of the “cylinder” (more like a cube actually..) is made of plastic! As copper and stainless steel become more and more expensive and obsolete in the future these cylinders will become the norm.

Details The Latento cylinder is designed for an unpressurized plumbing system. It is a plastic solar storage tank according to DIN 4753 and DIN 4708 with integrated latent insulating material particularly suited for operation with regenerative systems (at low reheating, e.g. by solar panels), with integrated PUR insulation. Gross volume is 540 litres, with hot water, heating and solar heat exchanger of long-wave stainless steel corrugated pipes for improved heat yield. Download the technical specifications.

Price of the 540 litre version is €2799 ex VAT. A 300L version is expected to become available to Ireland in 2011.
