U Pipe Heat Pipe Solar Collector with Evacuated Tubes

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Solar Energy Conversion: Utilizes evacuated tubes and U-shaped copper heat pipes to efficiently collect and convert solar radiation into thermal energy. The heat pipe system enables rapid heat transfer via vaporization-condensation cycles, ensuring high efficiency.
  • Thermal Storage & Distribution: The stainless steel inner tank retains heat, while the medium liquid (water/antifreeze mixture) circulates through the system to distribute thermal energy for hot water or space heating applications.

Key features

  • 1. Advanced Material Technology for Durability and Efficiency

    • With a corrosion-resistant stainless steel inner tank and high-conductivity copper heat pipes, you can ensure long-lasting performance and efficient heat transfer. The evacuated tube design reduces heat loss by up to 40% compared to traditional flat plate collectors*, providing superior thermal efficiency in diverse climates.

  • 2. Customizable Interactive Design for Versatile Applications

    • With modular customization options, you can adjust the number of heat pipes and collector panel size to meet specific heating requirements. This flexibility allows seamless adaptation for residential hot water systems or commercial-scale applications.

  • 3. High-Performance Heat Transfer Certified by Industry Standards

    • With SOLAR KEYMARK certification and optimized heat pipe-aluminum fin systems, you can achieve up to 30% higher heat output than conventional solar collectors*. The medium liquid (water-antifreeze mix) ensures reliable operation even in sub-zero temperatures.

  • 4. Scenario-Specific Solutions for Diverse Environments

    • With wall-mounted installation and customizable configurations, you can deploy this system in limited-space settings (e.g., rooftops) while maintaining robust performance for both domestic and commercial use. The antifreeze medium enables operation in regions with freezing temperatures.

  • 5. Comprehensive Compliance with Global Safety and Sustainability Certifications

    • With certifications like EPR_Germany_Packing, SOLAR KEYMARK, and CE, you can ensure compliance with EU safety, environmental, and performance standards. This guarantees eco-friendly design and reliable durability compared to non-certified alternatives.
