What are the Reasons behind Choosing Solar Pool Heat Exchanger?

A solar pool heat exchanger is a highly efficient way of heat transfer between two different liquids. Both liquids can have different physical properties like water and glycol. Or they may need to be separated due to their different operational pressures. Whatever the reason maybe, Northern Lights solar heat exchanger ensures transferring energy more efficiently without any virtual heat loss.

Northern Lights Solar Solutions provides a special high-flow pool heat exchanger capable of handling higher secondary side flow as well as high chlorine levels very well. It has better quality flow characteristics making it an ideal alternative for both solar pool heating and hot tub heating purposes.

Solar Pool Heat Exchanger

If you want to use a solar pool heat exchanger for applications involving salt water, it’s recommended that you should consider investing in the titanium version of the solar pool heat exchanger. This version is highly resistant to chlorine and salt water.

What are the Main Reasons behind Using Solar Pool Heat Exchangers?

  • The solar pool heat exchanger available at Northern Lights Solar Solutions is specifically engineered to operate at high secondary side fluid velocities with low pressure drops.
  • The pool heat exchanger has a helical coiled tube design which makes the system unique from other shell and tube heat exchangers available right now on the market. Due to its exceptional design, the heat exchanger provides efficient heat transfer performance and is useful for a diverse range of applications.
  • If you want to maximize the overall performance of the solar pool heat exchanger, you should get it installed by using counter-current flow method. The hot or heating fluid flows through the tube or the primary side whereas the cold or heated fluid flows through the shell or secondary side.

For example: In a swimming pool, the pool water flows through the shell side and the boiler water flows through the tube side.

What are the Main Features of Solar Pool Heat Exchangers?

The solar pool heat exchanger has high heat transfer tubes and a smooth shell ensuring high velocities inside the unit. The tubes make the heat exchanger a very reliable, efficient and affordable alternative to transfer heat indirectly between any solar heating or boiler circuit and pool or spa circuits apart from other applications.

  • High efficiency and co-efficient of performance for up to 14000 w/m2 deg C
  • The heat exchange capacity of three to seven times than the traditional equipment
  • A compact configuration that occupies a small area i.e. one-tenth of the traditional exchanger
  • Stainless steel and/or titanium material for endurance against high temperature, pressure and corrosion
  • Helix screw thread elasticity heat exchange bundle that eliminates the stress
  • Design flux speed of 5.5m/s and less dirt
  • High flow volume
  • Easy and simple installation process and higher durability

Bottom Line –
