AquaCon™ Modules

The new AquaCon™ Direct and In-Direct series of heat exchange modules utilises technology developed by the District Heating Division of Danfoss A/S. It makes a perfect complement to the Modular solutions offered by SAV for building services distribution and control.

AquaCon™ is a "heat it when you need it" system that eliminates standing losses and features low return temperatures.  It's ideal for use with renewable energy sources including heat pumps, solar collectors and, of course, central boiler plant including units fired with biomass fuels.

Working in liaison with Danfoss - one of the world leaders in controls and district and group heating technology - means that SAV Modules can offer field-proven solutions including systems metered for flow and energy.

Because hot water is only generated when it is required there are no storage losses in the system.  No separate storage cylinder, or calorifier is required, yet hot water is instantly available.

Available in a range of sizes from 35-220 kW SAV AquaCon™ Modules are particularly suited to multi-dwelling applications served by a common boiler plant. Apartment blocks, prisons, hospitals etc can all have ample supplies of hot water – with energy metering where required.

Models are available for both direct and indirect systems. In the direct application hot water from the central plant is distributed straight into the unit served by the AquaCon™ Module. Indirect versions feature a second heat exchange module, which acts as an interface betweens the hot water main supply from the boiler and the circuit within the dwelling.  In this way heat energy can be taken efficiently from the central boiler, while maintaining a “sealed system” condition for the individual apartment.

The system is equally efficient with lower temperature heating circuits such as underfloor heating, which requires a maximum around 60ºC. Thanks to the low return temperatures involved in this type of system AquaCon™ Modules make perfect partners for condensing boilers and other energy efficient heat sources such as heat pumps.
