Pre-Fabricated Megaflo Cylinders

See also: DPS Pre-Fabricated Pandora Heat Bank Thermal Store - They do everything that a Megaflo will, but have the added advantages:
1. Higher pressures (up to 9 bar) allowing better performance to multiple outlets.
2. DIY installable without the need to notify building inspector.
3. No annual maintenance requirements.
4. No discharge pipe.
6. Immune to build up of limescale in store.

Pre-Fabricated Megaflo Cylinders cut down on site installation time considerably, and ensure that the basic controls for the hot water and heating are installed, wired and tested to exacting standards.

In addition to the domestic water controls, the unit is fitted with the full array of primary controls required for a sealed system. Installation of the unit simply consists of pipework connections to the boiler, radiators, mains, water outlets, and drain, with wiring to the boiler, room unit and immersion heaters. The wiring is simplified by the use of Honeywell Smartfit controls. Connection to the boiler is made from the fitted junction box, while the room unit operates on 12v and requires only two wire polarity-free connection to the Smartfit control centre.

An added benefit of using a pre-fabricated Megaflo is the assurance of tidy pipework. One is always at the mercy of the installer when it comes to the way controls and pipework are arranged in a cylinder cupboard. Time on site is not cheap, and space to work is often limited. Sometimes the results are rushed & untidy. In addition, badly though out pipework can obstruct service engineers access to system components.

When systems are factory assembled, the advantages of being able to design pipework layouts in advance and put them together with ample working space and the correct tools becomes clear. Components are located where service engineers can gain easy access. Pipework is straight, supported and pressure tested, with air vents and drain points located where necessary, and all wiring clamped neatly to the unit.

Shown here as a basic lockshield type. Also available with automatic differential pressure by-pass

All controls are fitted close to the body of the cylinder. This reduces the footprint of the units and helps to strengthen the pipe supports.

A Honeywell Smartfit control system provides the latest technology in home control. Hot water and heating times, room temperature, and cylinder temperature are controlled from a single room unit, without the need for an additional programmer. Connection to the room unit is made by 12v dc polarity-free 2-pole wiring from the base unit. Full control system diagnostics are provided, along with an automatic commissioning sequence. Wiring connections to the motorised valves & cylinder thermostat stat are made by telephone style connectors, and valve heads are push-fit, cutting down on servicing times.

Other options available include 6 metre head primary pump, Grundfos UPE electronic primary pump, 28mm primary controls, automatic by-pass, fitted immersion heater controller with wiring to immersion heaters, & towel rail connection.
