Heat pump buffer tanks, also known as thermal stores, absorb heat, store it with low losses, and keep it ready for use in the heating system. They ensure a constant supply of heat and increase the service life of the heat pump compressor by significantly reducing its activation cycles. This allows bivalent or multivalent charging from different heat sources.
OCHSNER buffer tanks function according to the stratified tank principle. This is based on the fact that hot water is less dense than cold and therefore stays at the top. The system is optimised to prevent the temperature layers from mixing. Sufficient DHW is then available, even when the tank is far from fully charged.
OCHSNER heat pump buffer tanks are perfectly matched to the heat pump thanks to their large connection dimensions.
