Wilo has unveiled Sinum, an automatic de-aeration system designed to optimise building services by eliminating trapped air and ensuring proper pressurisation.
The Sinum has been designed for suitable operation across a host of applications, including buildings, schools, hospitals and data centres.
The unit, which consists of a pump unit and pressureless expansion vessel, automatically eliminates trapped air (often known as ‘degassing’ amongst the industry) and solid particles within sealed heating systems and chilled water cooling systems.
Jason Cox, sales director at Wilo, said: “Heating and cooling processes are widely known to account for a substantial portion of global energy consumption and emissions.
“Given this, it’s imperative that new buildings and their heating and cooling systems are as efficient as possible. This is where the Wilo Sinum comes in. By removing trapped air and dirt from water, it means pumps that move this water around the system do not have to work as hard. Ultimately, energy consumption is lowered as a result.”
The pressureless expansion vessels supplied with the Sinum come in a variety of sizes, including 100 – 1,000 litres in accordance with EN 13831, and 1,200 – 10,000 litres in accordance with AD2000. Meanwhile, the Sinum’s pump unit comes as a ‘mono’ or ‘double’ unit, depending on the needs and size of the system chosen.
“The Wilo Sinum is the perfect solution when standard equipment with a diaphragm expansion tank reaches its limit,” said Jason. “It features a range of advanced technology, including volumetric controls and auto-topping up and replenishing of water systems, offering a long service life and easy maintenance.”
