1PRODUCT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
1.1 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The construction of OKC 160 - 300 series tanks and their variety allow economic preparation of hot sanitary
water (HSW) using different energy sources. Their nominal performance provides sufficient amount of hot
sanitary water for flat units, premises, restaurants, and similar establishments. HSW can be heated by
electric energy, different types of central heating boilers, recoverable energy sources (heat pumps, solar
collectors) and combinations of those.
Sanitary water heating via thermal energy through heat exchanger
Closing valves of the heat exchanger must be opened which ensures heating water flow from the hot water
heating system. Together with a closing valve, it is recommended to install an air outlet valve at the inlet to
the heat exchanger in order to bleed the heat exchanger as needed, in particular before the beginning of
the heating season. The time it takes to heat up using the heat exchanger depends on the temperature and
flow of water in the hot water heating system.
1.2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The tank receptacle is welded of steel plate, heat exchangers of steel tube and, as a unit, enamelled to
resist hot water. There is an additional protection against corrosion in the upper part of the tank and, in
selected models, also in the side flange (see a list on p. 25) in form of mounted magnesium that adjusts
electrical potential of the receptacle's inside, thus reducing the effects of it getting corroded. Tanks have
hot and cold water outlets welded on, and a circulation opening. The receptacle is insulated with
polyurethane foam of 40 - 65 mm thickness. The shell of the tank is steel plate coated with powder dye;
connecting pieces are metal coated. The entire tank stands on three adjusting screws with a possibility of
aligning floor unevenness in 10 mm range. Under the plastic cover on the side of the tank, there is a
cleaning and revision opening ended with a flange; a heating unit of different power can be mounted in the
opening. NTR and NTRR series tanks from 200 litre capacity are equipped with a 6/4“ aperture for screwing
in an additional heater TJ. This variant is used if the tank is connected in a solar system, or in a system with
heat pump, in order to finish heating water to the desired temperature in the upper part of the tank. The
tank is placed on the ground, next to the heating water source, or in its vicinity. The tank is tested with
pressure of 0.9 MPa, heat exchangers with 1.5 MPa.
NTR version has one heat exchanger located in the lower part of the tank, and uses one source of heating
water for heating.
The NTRR version is equipped with two exchangers for an optional combination of two heating water
sources; both exchangers can be combined in a series. The NTR/BP and NTRR/BP series do not have a
heating element. The tank cannot be used for flow heating of hot water in the heat exchanger.
