Flamco launches three new products

Flamco launches three new products

Flamco welcomed PBM to The Shard to learn about its new product launches, and to find out more about the company’s move towards sustainability.

More than five years of development is said to have contributed to Flamco’s newest line of products released in the UK, including the XStream – a new approach to air and dirt separation, the Side-Clean, an all-in-one side stream filter, and a new range of expansion vessels – the Flexcon Premium range. All newly launched products are available through merchants, and full point of sale and merchandising support is offered to support stockists.

XStream

Reportedly, the Flamco XStream effect sees up to 15% less energy consumption by the heating system, the introduction of automatic venting, less wear and tear to the system with a lower chance of a breakdown. The introduction of an ECO/MAX mode now allows the new unit to operate at maximum power to remove dirt and air from the system primarily during system start up, or whilst the system is being commissioned, before turning the system down to ECO to ensure constant activity but with a low resistance and pressure drop, which means the pump has to work less hard in the installation.

Available in three different units –XStream Vent – an air separator, XStream Clean – a dirt separator or  XStream Vent-Clean, which provides both air and dirt separation in one unit. The entire range is equipped with a 360° rotating connection which makes it possible to install in horizontal, vertical or diagonal lines so no need to take into account the flow direction of the installation

The XStream is supplied with an integral insulation jacket which ensures heat losses are kept to a minimum and is said to reduce energy consumption by 15% through improved system performance. It also comes with an integrated service indicator which shows when the filter was last flushed. With the XStream Vent, the service indicator shows when the system was last vented in the MAX mode. This air and dirt separation system comes with a 15 year warranty, highlighting the company’s confidence in the new unit.

 

SideFlow Clean

The dirt that may collect in central heating and cooling installations can reduce the installation’s performance and cause wear or even damage. The SideFlow Clean provides a solution for preventing this. The filter is suitable for installations in the commercial, industrial and utilities sectors, has a maximum working pressure of 16 bar, is suitable for system capacities of up to 120,000 litres and system power outputs of up to 10 megawatts and can also be fitted to existing installations.

The screw-on top lets the installer easily remove both the magnet holder and the bag filter for cleaning or replacement. It is also possible, for example, to mix in glycol or to add cleaning or protection agents. The SideFlow Clean – including four bag filters and a 5-year warranty – is available through heating wholesalers.

Flexcon Premium

The Flexcon Premium range features a new and unique plastic membrane for expansion vessels made of thermoplastic polyolefin, which is said to make the product much more sustainable, in terms of environmental performance and durability, while maintaining a high quality. It also provides raw materials and energy savings, and offers a 15-year guarantee.

In other respects too, the range is said to score highly in terms of sustainability. The new membrane is much lighter, because it requires up to 50% less material. This saves raw materials, energy and fuel for transport and results in a large reduction of CO2 emissions.

The life cycle of these expansion vessels has also been made to be as sustainable as possible. Cardboard packaging has replaced polystyrene, and user manuals have been optimised, by being printed on FSC certified paper.
