A Substation is an essential part of a heat generation, transmission and distribution system, sitting between the heat source and the buildings heating / cooling network. Its primary role is to provide hydraulic separation and to regulate the flow of hot or cold water into the buildings network using a combination of plate heat exchangers, control & balancing valves, temperature & pressure sensors and pumps.
Each substation should be designed to help maximise the efficiency of the heat generator using carefully sized components and should interface with the buildings heat network and controls to ensure the network load is always satisfied 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
We have partnered with one of the most experienced manufacturers of substations in Europe. They have been manufacturing high quality products in the industry for over 50 Years and have a customer base spanning the whole of Europe and as far afield as Canada. Their manufacturing processes and quality control are second to none and their careful attention to detail means that you, the customer, will be provided with all the technical documentation about your product, including a full 3D Cad image, so that you can sign it off prior to manufacture. Their ability to fabricate a high quality product, together with components from industry leading manufacturers, such as Siemens, Danfoss, SWEP and Grundfos and our ability to manufacture extremely advanced heat network controls and monitoring systems means that you can be certain your substation will perform to the highest level alongside your heat network.
