Chromagen has fine-tuned the design and manufacture of solar collectors to an art. Collectors are assembled using quality materials and advanced techniques, which result in highly efficient, durable products you can depend on for years to come. The products are environmentally friendly, remarkably versatile and offer high performance even in extreme environments. The wide range of solar collectors enables Chromagen to provide cost-effective solutions which comply with a variety of international standards.
1. Absorber Plate - Made of copper or aluminium sheet, laser or ultrasonically welded to copper tubes, ensuring high efficiency and durability.
2. Absorber Plate Coating - Selective paint or ultra selective sputtered coating with excellent energy absorption and very low energy emission for high performance even in cooler climates.
3. Insulation - The absorber plate is encased in 23 mm rigid polyurethane foam,with an option to additional layer of glass wool, retaining the collector’s heat.
4. Solar Glass Glazing - The single-pane 3.2 mm patterned and tempered solar glass has high solar transmittance of 91% and excellent durability.
5. Casings - Anodized aluminium extrusion casings are made of solid construction available in a natural or black colour.
Galvanized steel casings are available in black, grey or white polyester paint finish.
6. Tubing Grid - 16 mm or 8 mm copper risers brazed to 28 mm or 22 mm copper manifolds with optimal flow distribution.
7. Piping Connection - Four 3/4” BSPP female brass adaptors or clear cut edge for connector brazing.
8. Back Plate - The back plate is made of black polypropylene sheet.
9. Aluminium Foil - The aluminium foil, integrated to the insulation, acts as a barrier against out-gassing.
