Custom Made Units.Products made to your unique specification

We can offer a custom made service to all customers. This can range from supplying either a vertical or horizontal unit to designing a heat exchanger to meet your specific heat up requirements.

We have the capability to manufacture Calorifiers to a capacity of over 5000 litres for use on both open vented and mains pressure systems. All material specifications are calculated to suit each unique application, and as part of the design service the customer can determine what size connections are used and in what position they are to be located. (This is subject to manufacturing restrictions).

On all of our indirect units we offer heat exchangers which are either a fixed coil or removable U-Tube battery. It is dependant on the specification as to which type is best suited for the application. If required

we can manufacture units with twin heat exchangers for those installations which may have more than one heat source.

Additional features we offer include inspection openings and removable bolted heads which allow access for cleaning etc. We can also offer bubble top units.

Where Legionella is a concern, we can design a unit which will help to prevent the bacteria forming. This includes fitting inspection openings, destratification pumps etc.

A problem our customers come across on numerous occasions is when a unit has gone through its working life and needs replacing but the access to the building/ boiler room is too small. We can offer a solution with a calorifier which is designed to be supplied in sections and erected on site. This means that you can replace an existing unit with one of the same capacity without any structural changes.

Direct Calorifiers



BUFFER VESSELSKingspan HWS are conscious of the fact that there are certain systems / scenarios where a storage calorifier is required without the need to have a heat exchanger fitted. This can include situations where the only energy source to the building is an electrical supply, meaning their needs are to have a storage calorifier which is heated via an immersion heater only. Another example is when an application has instantaneous water heaters that also required a storage vessel to store the hot water to help meet demands at peak times.

Like all our products we offer flexibility in the design of these products whereby the units are designed to the customers requirements. Our units are designed in accordance to construction codes BS853 grade A and B or Commercial Standard. We offer a full range of capacities up to and above 5000 litres.

Please see below our standard tapping arrangement for these products which as mentioned can be altered to each unique application.

Hot Water Storage Calorifiersavailable in Copper, Stainless, Galvanised and Mild Steel.

GeneralMaterials of construction are generally in accordance with the relevant British Standard Code of Practice. British Standards applicable to cylinder construction are codes 853 (Grade A or B). Vertical pattern units are fitted with either a ringstand or three leg mild steel stand (where applicable). Horizontal type units have rubber lined mild steel cradles, supplied loose for customer location.

Shell materialCopper is the ideal material to use with potable water because of its non-corrosive properties. The material thickness (therefore cost) is relative to the shell working pressure (head), and this must be stated at enquiry stage. Alternatives (such as stainless steel) are available particularly for large capacities and working pressuresabove 6.00 bar. Mild steel (Galvanised after manufacture) is available for particularly hard water conditions.

Primary heaterConstructed in the form of U-tubes containing extended surface copper tubes, roller expanded into a non ferrous tubeplate. Each unit is sized to specific requirements and can be adapted to suit water, steam and other heating mediums. Primary headers would be constructed from either cast iron or mild steel (fabricated).

Pressure equipment directive (97/23/EC)The majority of fluids found in calorifier systems are classed asgroup 2 fluids. The following rules pertain to calorifierscontaining group 2 fluids:

Where the maximum design pressure (in bar gauge) multipliedby the calorifier volume (in litres) is not greater than 10,000 thecalorifier is categorised as SEP (Sound Engineering Practice).However steam is classed as a group 2 gas:

When the maximum design pressure (in bar gauge) multipliedby the tube bundle volume (in litres) is not greater than 1,000the calorifier is categorised as SEP. SEP calorifiers cannot carry a CE mark. Calorifiers which fall into a higher category must carry a CE Mark

CertificationEach vessel and/or heat exchanger is subjected to a thoroughinspection and is hydraulically pressure tested to 1 ½ times itsdesign pressure. A Certificate of Conformity is issued, suitablyendorsed, assuring the customer of the Highest Quality andStandards available.

Unvented - sealed systemsUnits are available complete with ancillaries suitable for directmains (or boosted) water supplies. It is essential to advise us ofthe maximum hot working pressure to enable us to selectcorrectly. When assessing the working pressure of waterboosted systems the closed valve head (generated by thepumps) must be catered for, as this is likely to be in excess ofthe booster normal operating pressure.

TraffordSemi-Storage Calorifiers

The ‘Trafford’ High output semi-storage calorifier was developed in 1990 to meet the requirements of the Building Services Engineers demand for an effective solution to the limitations of plant space, high efficiency, Legionella elimination, energy conservation, accurate temperature control and reliability. A wealth of experience (more than 40 years) has been utilised in the design and development of the ‘Trafford’. Customers can select from a standard range of nine models (T1–T9). Any information regarding duties and dimensions can be obtained by ringing our sales office on 0161 872 3613.

The ‘Trafford’ heat exchanger incorporates a removable U-tube battery and can accommodate all types of heat sources: steam, water, oils and waste heat. The ‘Trafford’ would normally be constructed from copper however stainless steel and carbon steel are alternative materials, offered where more appropriate for the application.

Trafford semi-storage calorifiers offer the following features:-

Space limitation - The ‘Trafford’ can be designed to occupy as little as 50% of the floor space required by a conventional storage calorifier. The weight (floor loading) may be 30% of a conventional storage calorifier.

High efficiency - The ‘Trafford is designed to even out the peaks normally associated with Domestic Hot Water Services due to the combination of a high output through flow heat exchanger and storage reservoir.

Legionnaires disease - The ‘Trafford’ offers a level of confidence that during normal use the risk of colonisation of Legionella bacteria is minimised. The continuous movement of water through the minimal capacity storage vessel results in the elimination of temperature stratification associated with a conventional bulk storage calorifier. Water is initially sterilised as it passes through the heat exchanger and then held at the desired temperature in the storage reservoir prior to discharge to the H W S system. (Stagnant water and temperatures of 28oC being ideal conditions for colonisation of Legionellae Bacteria). Alternative systems (offering little or no storage capacity) are not as capable in terms of Legionellae protection as they do not hold bacteria at sterilisation conditions prior to distribution.

Temperature limits - The ‘Trafford’ heat exchanger is suitable for steam or water temperatures up to 300oC

Energy conservation - The ‘Trafford’ storage vessel is only in the region of 30% of the capacity of a bulk storage calorifier resulting in reduced standing heat losses. Peaking of primary input is virtually eliminated as the storage vessel “buffers” peak demand.

Temperature control - The ‘Trafford’ temperature control probe is sited at the outflow from the heat exchanger allowing control within a narrow band of the set point, due to the continuous flow of water over the probe (in a low volume space).

Spray Foam Finished Marine Calorifiers

Sizing your Marine Calorifier

Heat-up time is usually 20 minutes, although if a larger marinecalorifier is connected to a small engine this will take longer.Calculate usage by using the following average consumptionfigures for hot water stored at 60°C.

Shower - 6 litres/minute (dependent on shower head). 18 litres capacityBasin - 2 to 4 litres per basin. 4 litres capacitySink (washing up) - 5 to 6 litres. 6 litres capacityEg for two showers, two basins and one galley sink (2 x 18) + (2 x 4) + (1 x 6) = 50 litres

The above guide can be used to calculate an average daily usage. It is important that you ensure a store size is suitable to cater for expected demand whilst at berth. The water will stay at a useful temperature for 24 hours provided the unit has factoryfitted insulation. Twin coil units are available to take advantage of other heat sources.

Immersion heaters can be fitted to provide an extra heat inputduring extended periods at berth.




Installing your Marine Calorifier

Calorifiers are available as shown in the sizing guide. It is important that the appropriate capacity is linked to the expected usage. Albion also offer a selection of Marine Calorifiers with a set of pre-plumbed controls to make installation easier. Please note from the schematic diagram the components necessary to ensure the correct opera-tion.

Use only domestic water hoses which are appropriate for pres-sure and heat. Plumbing on board can be done with an approved pipework system, either synthetic or metallic. If the calorifier is sited more than two metres from the engine a non-return valve is not necessary.

Fixing straps are supplied with either cased or foam moulded calori-fiers, which may be mounted vertically with controls top orbottom, or horizontally. Attention must be paid to engine manufacturer’s recommendations and warranties when installing marine calorifiers. Albion also produce Marine Calorifiers which offer a more diverse range of sizes for those more awkward of installations. These Ma-rine units are manufactured to suit the onboard specification and as shown in the table below we can offer a large variety of diameters and heights to suit your needs. These Calorifiers are supplied either vertically or horizontally.

Sizing For Hot Water Demand Method of assessing recovery/storage relationships for hot water storage vessels.

When sizing hot water storage calorifiers, it is important to determine not

only the correct size but also the correct relationship between recovery

and storage to enable the most efficient selection of plant to be made. If

too high a storage volume is selected and the recovery rate determined

as a time function of the volume, then not only is the vessel and heat

exchanger oversized but likewise the primary generating plant, pumps,

pipework and controls. The effect of oversizing will vary depending on

the degree and type of building, but where the domestic hot water load

represents a substantial proportion of the total heating load, unnecessary

expenditure, both in capital and running costs, is involved. Where

inadequate storage and recovery are provided, the system will not meet

the user requirements, with the result that costly modifications may be

necessary when the building is occupied and the engineering services

in daily use. Whatever the building under construction, a pattern of hot

water usage can be projected, the actual usage being largely a function of

the building population and the type of activity that takes place within. In

determining the pattern of usage, it is important to differentiate between

the maximum daily demand and the average daily demand, so that the

implications of the system not meeting the demands made upon it can

be recognised, and the maximum requirements designed for where

necessary. To project the demand pattern over the operating period an

hour by hour analysis of hot water usage should be made. Taking into

account the building population, the level and type of activity and all

other factors which affect hot water demand, a quantitive assessment of

hourly usage should be tabulated for every hour of the operating period.

For offices and schools, a continuous 12 hour operating period may be

sufficient, but for other buildings such as hospitals and factories a 24 hour

operating period may be necessary.
