Industrial application

With a PRINETO thermal component activation (TBA), PRINETO surface heating pipes carrying water are laid in the lower area of concrete floors in your building. In other words, you use the enormous storage mass of your building for tempering, thus delaying the increase in room temperature in the summer until the late afternoon. The building, which has cooled down the night before, absorbs the heat, the following night it is cooled again using only little energy. Water temperatures of about 18 °C are adequate for surface temperatures of 20 – 22 °C to be achieved.

 

The basic load heating of the rooms to about 18 °C using thermal component activation is extremely economical since you work with even lower water temperatures (ca. 26 °C) than those required for classic underfloor heating. That makes the especially effective use of regenerative energy possible (solar, condensing boilers or heat pumps). The heat is mainly given off by ceiling radiation at a rate of around 20 – 25 W/m2. To achieve comfortable temperatures of 20 – 22 °C you need only small, quickly-regulated radiators (about 15 W/m2, e.g. FBH edge zones, floor convectors).

 

 

Our highly flexible PRINETO surface heating pipes of the size 20 x 2.0 mm and 25 x 2.3 m, oxygen-proof in accordance with DIN 4724 or 4726, are suitable for industrial floor heating or thermal component activation. Special high-volume 2 inch stainless steel distributors, optionally fitted with control valves or flow meters, take care of distribution in the heating or cooling circuits.

 

We produce customised pipe dimensions and collar lengths from 20,000 metres. Ask our service team – we'll be happy to help!
