domestic selection guide
These recommendations are based on the guidelines in BS 6700.
Guidance should be sought for unusual applications. Eg: High flow - rate showers, large baths etc.

The reheat performance is measured from 15°C to 60°C after drawing off 70% of the capacity. The coil kW rating is a guide
to the minimum size of boiler required to achieve the reheat times stated. Faster reheat times are achieveable using twin - coil
Tribunes. With both coils fed simultaneously, reheat times can be reduced to almost half. The boiler power required would double.
Specification
Inner Container
Duplex 2304 stainless steel to EN 10088.4362.
Primary Coil 22mm diameter 36L stainless steel.
Coil in coil design for improved performance. Entire cylinder
contents are heated on indirect models. The primar y system must
be fully pumped. The primar y circuit may be sealed
(max. 7 bar).
Outer Casing (optional) Zintec corrosion proofed steel
with durable oven - hardened white paint finish.
Thermal Insulation Fire retardant polyurethane foam.
The foam is CFC free, HCFC free and has an Ozone depletion
potential of zero. Nominal thickness 50mm

parallel threaded head. Long life incoloy sheathed low noise
element 14" long. Long life incoloy sheathed thermostat pocket
11" long. Brazed construction. 11" combined thermostat and
safety cut - out. Element rating 3Kw at 240V A/C.
Installation
Fixing
The units must be fitted vertically.
Water Supply The unit must be used on an open vented
system (ie. fed from a cold water tank and fitted with a vent
pipe). The maximum working head is 40m.
Plumbing Connections Inlet / outlet - 22mm
compression. Indirect coils - 22mm compression.
Thermostat / Shower tapping - 1/2"F.
*NOTE Use D2R / Gunmetal compression fittings to make
connections onto the 22mm stub pipes.
Do not use push - fit connectors.
