Solar thermal systems

The sun is the biggest supplier of energy to the earth, and provides the starting point for an environmentally sound way to obtain energy: solar thermal energy. To supplement a gas, oil or electrically powered heating system or as a constituent element in an ice storage heating system, a solar plant converts free solar power into heat. To achieve a regular plant service life of 20 to 25 years, every single component needs to be manufactured to a high quality standard.

As a collector or storage sensor, we recommend the TF45 insertion thermometer, available with a vast array of measuring elements and switchgear. Pressure monitoring plays an equivalently important role to temperature monitoring. The pressure conditions in the solar circuit have a decisive impact on the efficiency and service life of a solar power plant. To monitor the prevailing pressure, you can choose from a range of pressure gauges (111) as well as pressure sensors (PMT).
