Why Do You Install Solar Pool Exchangers for Pool Water Heating?

Generally, pools and spas have additional amount of chlorine and bromine. It seems difficult to maintain the flow requirements at the pool or hot tub. That’s why flat plate solar heat exchangers aren’t ideal for them. This is where a special high flow pool heat exchanger comes in handy.

A solar pool exchanger can handle the higher secondary flow and high levels of Chlorine efficiently. It has the better flow characteristics, making it ideal for solar pool water heating. A titanium solar pool heat exchanger is recommended for applications that use salt water. This is highly resistant to chlorine and salt water.

Why Do You Consider Installing Solar Pool Exchangers for Solar Pool Heaters?

Northern Lights solar pool exchangers are usually designed to operate at high secondary side fluid velocities with low pressure drops. They come with a helical coiled tube design, making it unique from other shell and tube heat exchangers available. Their exceptional design ensures highly efficient heat transfer performance and diversity in their uses.

If you’re looking to maximize the overall performance of solar pool exchanger, you should get it installed in a counter-current flow process. However, the hot fluid flows through the tube or the primary side whereas the cold fluid makes its way through the shell or secondary side. For example, the pool water needs to flow through the shell side and the boiling water flows through the tube side in a swimming pool.

What are The Special Features?

Solar pool exchanger has high heat transfer heat exchanger tubes and smooth shell that ensures high velocities inside the unit. That’s why this heat exchanger is considered as a trustworthy, cost-effective, and efficient way to transfer heat in an indirect way between solar heating or boiler circuit and any spa or pool circuit.

What are the Main Reasons Behind the Installation of Solar Pool Exchangers?

• High efficient and co-efficient up to 14000 w/m2 deg C
• Heat exchange capacity three to seven times than the traditional equipment
• Stainless steel and/or titanium material enduring high temperature, pressure, and corrosion
• Helix screw thread elasticity heat exchange eliminating stress
• Big volume of flow
• Easy installation process and durability
• 5.5m/s design flux speed and less dirt
• ASME standard VIII-1
  

What are The Design Parameters of Solar Pool Exchanger?

There are four pool exchanger design parameters available i.e.

• Shell side pressure – 60 PSI (4 bar)
• Shell side temperature – 140F (60C)
• Tube side pressure – 150 PSI (10 bar)
• Tube side temperature – 250F (120C)
