PS 600 ES+ Storage Tank
PS ES+ Thermal Stores
PS ES+ Thermal Stores are designed for storing and distributing
thermal energy from solid-fuel fired boilers. These tanks come in
three different models with capacities of 560, 860, and 1037
liters. The tanks are fitted with three side connections, one top
connection, and one connection for sensor sheath. You can install
230V or 3x230V/400V heating elements with 2-12 kW output directly
into the 6/4 connections. The tanks have no finish or
anti-corrosion protection on the inner surface, while the outer
surface is lacquered in gray.

Installation and Commissioning
Installation of PS ES+ Thermal Stores should only be done by
qualified staff in accordance with valid rules. Improper
installation, use, or handling will void the warranty. After
installation, it is recommended to clean the entire heating system
using a suitable cleaning agent (e.g. BP 400) and apply an
anti-corrosion protective liquid (e.g. BP 100 Plus).
Operation
PS ES+ Thermal Stores can be heated by various types of
hot-water boilers or electric heating elements. Connect the thermal
store to the energy source using a G 6/4 connection fitting. The
individual tank outlets should be fitted according to the circuits
to be connected.

4 – Operation
In a thermal store, heating water can be heated up by various types of hot-water boilers, or possibly also by electric heating elements. The thermal store is connected to the energy source using a G 6/4″ connection fitting. The individual tank outlets are fitted according to the circuits to be connected.

6 – Installation and Commissioning
Installation shall meet valid rules and may be done by qualified staff only. Defects caused by improper installation, use or handling are not covered by warranty. After the tank is installed and connected to an existing heating system, it is recommended to clean the entire heating system using a suitable cleaning agent, e.g. BP 400. Anti-corrosion protective liquid should be also used, e.g. BP 100 Plus.
6.1 – Connection to heat sources Place the tank on the floor, as close to your heat source as possible. Fit the insulation, cf. Installing Insulation on the Tank. Connect the heating system according to the recommended connection layout – see Chap. 5.Install a drain valve at the lowest point of the tank. Install an air vent valve at the highest point of the system. Insulate all the connecting piping.
6.2 – El. heating element installation These thermal stores can be equipped with electric heating elements of output up to 12 kW depending on the volume of the thermal store – see the table of max. output of heating elements in hot water tanks and thermal stores. They can be connected either directly (elements with integrated thermostat) or via the controller of the entire heating system. All electric heating elements shall be protected by a safety thermostat. The electric heating element shall be wired by a professionally qualified person only.
6.3 – Commissioning Ground the tank before commissioning. This tank is not designed for DHW heating. The tank shall be filled up together with the heating system, respecting valid standards and rules. In order to minimize corrosion, special additives for heating systems should be used. The quality of heating water depends on the quality of filling water at commissioning, on the top-up water quality and on the frequency of topping up. This has a strong influence on the lifetime of heating systems. Poor quality of heating water may cause problems like corrosion or incrustation, esp. on heat transfer surfaces.
Fill the heating circuits with the appropriate fluids and air-bleed the entire system. Check all connections for leaks and verify the system pressure. Set the heating controller in compliance with the documentation and manufacturer’s recommendations. Check regularly proper function of all control and adjustment elements.
7 – Installing Insulation on the Tank
Product description Fleece insulation with a hard polystyrene surface, closed by a quick locks.
Warning Insulation installation shall be done in two or three persons, depending on its size. The PU leather surface coated fleece insulation must not be installed at temperatures below 20 °C. If this cannot be avoided, the insulation shall be pre-warmed in another room to at least 20 °C. It is impossible to install insulation of lower temperature, there is a risk of damage. Do not use any tools for installation. Keep away from open fire.
Installing insulation 1. Put the bottom insulation under the tank and place the tank following installation instructions. 2. Wrap the insulation around the tank carefully. Check that the insulation adheres to its body perfectly. This can be
reached by rubbing and patting the insulation by hand from its centre evenly in both directions until the insulation adheres to the tank’s surface completely and no bubbles are left. 3. Use the holes for connections as a rest during the insulation installation. 4. At least one person presses the insulation to the tank, pulling both ends together. The other person closes the quick lock from the side. 5. Put on the upper insulation and cover. 6. Push on the covering plastic rosettes depending on the size of connections, or put on the flange plug(s) with insulation. 7. Finish the tank installation in compliance with the respective instructions and valid standards and rules.
6
Warranty on insulation The insulation is covered by a 24-month warranty. This period starts the next day after the insulation is sold. Warranty shall become null and void if:
the procedure described in the Installation Manual was not respected, the product was used for other purposes than intended. Warranty does not cover: usual wear and tear, damage caused by fire, water, electricity or another natural disaster, defects caused by failure to use the product in compliance with its intended purpose, by improper use and
insufficient maintenance, defects caused by mechanical damage to the product, defects caused by tampering or incompetent repair.

8 – Maintenance
If the tank is fitted with a heating element, disconnect it from the mains first. Clean the exterior of the tank with a soft cloth and a mild detergent. Never use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Check all tank connections for leaks.
9 – Disposal
Packaging shall be disposed of in compliance with the valid rules. When the product reaches the end of its life, it shall not be disposed of as household waste. It shall be dropped off at a Local Waste Recycling Centre. Insulation shall be recycled as plastic and the steel vessel as scrap iron.
10 – Warranty
This product is covered by warranty according to the conditions described in this Manual and according to the Warranty Certificate. A Warranty Certificate is an integral part of the supply.
