Description of the device
The Variomat VS 1 is a pump-controlled pressure maintaining, make-up and degassing station for heating and cooling water systems.
The Variomat is essentially a controller with pumps and at least one expansion tank. The expansion tank is fitted with a diaphragm to
divide the tank into an air space and a water space. preventing the ingress of atmospheric oxygen into the expansion water.
The Variomat VS 1 provides the following safety features:
• Optimisation of all pressure maintaining, degassing and make-up processes.
– No direct intake of air thanks to a regulation of the pressure maintenance with automatic make-up.
– No circulation issues caused by free bubbles in the circuit water.
– Reduced corrosion damage due to oxygen removal from fill and make-up water.
