7.3.2 Buffer with solar heating system
"BufferFlex" with solar heating system
The control principles of the solar heating system
and the different variations are described in
chapter 7.7 "
[Solar] function block".
In the overview of the buffer, the solar heating system
appears as another producer for the buffer. In the
subsequent graphic, the buffer is charged by the solar
heating system at a flow temperature of 98 °C.
Fig. 7-48: Solar heating system on the buffer
If a stratified charger for the buffer is installed, the solar
heating system can charge the upper and lower
portion of the buffer. The solar heating system is
displayed twice.
