Checking water volume and initial pressure of expansion vessel
The expansion vessel of the Hydro Unit has a capacity of 12 litres.
The initial pressure of the expansion vessel is 0.1 MPa (1 bar).
The pressure of the safety valve is 0.3 MPa (3 bar).
Verify whether the capacity of the expansion vessel is sufficient using the following expression. If the
volume is insufficient, install an appropriate external expansion vessel.
V
Action
< 12 L
Internal Expansion Vessel Size OK
> 12 L
Internal Expansion Vessel Size too small.
Install appropriate external expansion vessel
V: Necessary total vessel capacity (L)
Ɛ: Water expansion coefficient at average hot water temperature
Vs: Total water volume in the closed system (Do not include Hot Water Cylinder)
P1: System pressure at tank setting position (Mpa_abs*).
(Pipe inner pressure during pump operation before heating device operates = water supply
pressure)
P2: Maximum pressure used during operation at tank setting position (MPa_abs*).
(= safety valve setting pressure)
* The absolute pressure value (abs.) is obtained by adding the atmospheric pressure (0.1 MPa (1 bar)) to
the gauge pressure.

Example
Maximum Hot Water temperature: 55°C
Initial water charge: 0.2MPa
System volume: 200 L.
Calculate Vessel capacity (V):-
In this case V < 12 L therefore the internal expansion
vessel is sufficient, so there is no need to install an
external expansion vessel.
