U-pipe Solar Manifold Collector – Ideal Solution for High Temperature Water Heating Requirements

Now a days, U-Pipe type solar manifold collectors becoming very popular.The heat energy, transferred from sunlight by evacuated tubes, will be delivered by fins and the U-pipes made of copper, into the heat transferring fluid to heat the water inside the tank via pump. Inside the glass vacuum tube lies a copper pipe folded into a U-Shape with aluminum thermal conductors to transfer the solar energy from the inside wall of the glass tube to the collector case. The heat transfer fluid flows into each copper pipe, then connected in parallel to the upper part of the panel to a single collector.

Collector Panel U Pipe Application:

The solar collector can be installed in solar heating system to heat water for wide variety of uses, including home, hotel, school, business project and industrial uses. When in series or parallel connection, it also can be used to heat swimming pools, and supply heat for under floor heating.

Collector Panel U Pipe Feature:

  1. No water flows in the evacuated tubes, so water scale and tube exposition are avoided, Single broken tube will not affect the working of the system.
  2. No freezing problem in winter – can be used in cold area.
  3. It can be integrated with architecture perfectly and be connected with existing pipes.
  4. High performance evacuated tube collectors.
  5. Ideal for industrial application wherein high temperature requirement. 
  6. Can be mounted free-standing or on a pitched roof, easy to install, simple roof fixing.
  7. U pipe – offer low maintenance.
  8. Triple layer selective absorber coating, absorption > 94%
  9. Aluminium frame – Strong structure, light weight.
