Pressure drop depending on the flow rate
Please be aware that the device generates more heat as it degrades. At the beginning of life, a maximum
of 490 W per electrolyser can be extracted from the electrolyte. At the end of life, this value increases
to ca. 700 W per electrolyser. This waste heat can be available at up to 50 °C and can then be used for
any customer-specific heating purposes. Depending on the ambient temperature and the setup of the
cooling system, especially the piping, the heat losses from the cooling pipes might be significant,
resulting in a lower heat recovery. The chart is therefore not to be used as an indication of how much
waste heat can be captured for usage.
Warning!
Ensure that the cooling agent pressure on the input line never exceeds 7 barg. Make
sure that the cooling agent is filtered and free of particles. This can cause irreparable
damage to the device and create significant leakages. Enapter is not responsible for any
damage or injury resulting from the misuse of Enapter products.
Ensure the cooling agent pump can supply at least the minimum required flow rate.
Shortage of cooling can cause irreparable damage to the device.
