Product Description; Heat Generator For Reheating - IVT LATENTO XW Serie Instrucciones De Montaje

3. Product description

The LATENTO XW is an unpressurised hot water storage tank that was develo-
ped for employment in a one-/two-family house. Apartment houses (multi-family
houses) can be supplied via several LATENTO XW Tichelmann-system connected
units. The LATENTO XW has been designed for saving energy for the domestic hot
water generation. The insulation of the storage tank has been designed such that
the accumulated energy can be stored over several days.
The LATENTO XW may be operated with different heat sources to be heated up to
the temperature required to guarantee supply of sufficient hot water. The LATENTO
allinclusive regulation allowing control of the entire heating system, enables adap-
tation to your individual requirements.
Latent Material
The LATENTO XW is operated with latent material. The latent material melts at a
temperature of approx. 65 °C. While doing so, it absorbs heat energy without the
temperature changing in the storage tank at all. So energy can be stored without
major heat-losses – as it is the case at temperature rise, for instance. When the
storage tank cools below 65 °C, the latent material will resolidify dissipating the
stored energy to the storage water.
Moreover, the latent material prevents evaporation of the storage water. This will
minimize losses of water and energy. For that reason the LATENTO XW has been
factory filled with a small quantity of latent material. The latent material does not
pose any health hazard.
4. Heat generators for reheating
To guarantee sufficient hot water supply, the supply of the heat generator must
have at least a 15 °C higher temperature than the desired hot water temperature,
i.e. temperature of DAW 60 °C, supply of heat generator with 75 °C.
