EcoFlow PH SERIES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Packaged Heat EcoFlow PH series of Brazed Heat Exchanger, Packaged, Hot Water, Thermal
Stores are available in a range of outputs from 56kW to 231kW, (based on a primary
0 0
temperature of 80 C), and 33kW to 152kW (based on primary temperatures of 70 C) coupled
to thermal storage vessels with nominal capacities of 300 to 1000 litres. The vessels are
manufactured from 316 grade stainless steel, fully insulated with rigid polyurethane foam, all
enclosed in a durable P.V.C. zip on cover.
The Plate Heat Exchangers have very high outputs, low water content and low thermal inertia
making them ideal for use in systems requiring high outputs, fast recovery with varying heat
loads. The thermal store allows for those high peaks which occur at various times, without the
need for increased boiler capacity.
The Thermal Store and Heat exchanger kits are all suitable for unvented systems however a
suitable set of unvented kit equipment is required to do so. This is available as an option.
All units are designed to operate up to a maximum primary operating temperature of 90°C and
up to a maximum primary pressure of 8 barG.
For larger applications a number of units may be installed in parallel.
All of the EcoFlow PH units consist of a brazed plate heat exchanger “kit” which is site
assembled by others onto a stainless steel thermal storage vessel. To complement this there
are 3 different controls packages available.
Model CC - Electrically operated, 2 port control valve (24Volt, 0-10V signal), ½” BSPF
connection for sensor (sensor not included), secondary pump and secondary flow setting
valve. No controls are included with this package.
Model AC - Electrically operated, 2 port control valve (230V), EcoFlow temperature
controller, secondary temperature sensor, primary pump, secondary pump and secondary flow
setting valve.
There are full descriptions of each of these later in the manual.
The Thermal Stores are designed to accept a back up immersion heater if required, an adaptor
flange for the Lateral Hole is available to do so which will accept a 2/1/4” threaded immersion
heater, kW ratings and further details available on request.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
3
Thermal Storage Vessel Dimensions (Excluding heat exchanger kit)
A clearance of at least 250mm should be allowed around the assembled unit for access
and maintenance. If an immersion heater is the be fitted then the clearance in front of the
Thermal Store Control Panel and Lateral Hole should be increased to match the diameter
of the vessel.
-For all other vessel connections please refer to the drawing included later in this document
N.B. Model CC is not supplied with a primary pump, correct selection of this pump is
important to ensure the duty is achieved. In addition, if a fixed flow pump is used (as
opposed to a variable speed) an additional bypass or differential control valve will be
required. See below for primary flow rate and pressure drop figures.

OPERATION
The control panel fitted to the thermal store incorporates an enable thermostat and a manual
reset high limit thermostat. The enable thermostat is used to bring the Econoplate package
online, either by starting the secondary transfer pump or enabling the Econotrol which it turn
starts the pumps.
The secondary circuit of the heat exchanger incorporates a transfer pump and flow
commissioning valve which ensures water circulates at the pre-set flow rate from the bottom of
the thermal store, through the heat exchanger where it is heated and returns it to the store
ready for use by the hot water draw offs.
The applicable temperature control system (provided by others on Model E) then senses the
secondary water flow temperature from the heat exchanger and modulates the control valve
fitted to the primary circuit to maintain a constant secondary outlet temperature to the thermal
store.
The electrical supply is made in to the Control Panel on the Thermal Store. The panel
must be removed to access the terminal strip.
A single phase supply is required in all cases, wired to terminals L, N & E, through a
local isolator, all in accordance with current IEE regulations.
Electrical loads vary for different models, this is as a result of the number and type of
pumps fitted.
The EE Models also have a motorised valve and controller which have a small power
consumption. Therefore add a further 0.2A for Model EE.
-Primary pumps (Model EE only) : UPS2 25-80, 230V, 1.1A 140 Watt max or
: UPS2 32-80, 230V, 1.1A 140 Watt max
The heat exchanger package is supplied in kit form comprising of various sub-
assemblies and components which are ready for connection to the thermal store. The
whole package has been previously pre-assembled, hydraulically tested and then
disassembled, at the various union connections, prior to delivery.
Refer also to the Thermal Store / Vessel drawing for details of the connections.

Model M -The incoming supply wiring, should now be made to terminals L, N & E,
in the control panel on the thermal store. The control panel requires drilling to suit, in
a location as indicated below. In addition the panel should be drilled at this time to
suit the PG11/M20 gland provided for the transfer pump cable. The flying lead from
the pump should be wired to terminals 7 for the Live and 4 for Neutral. A link must
also be added from terminal 3 to terminal 5. All cabling can then be “zip” tied
together.

valve actuator wiring as detailed below.
The incoming supply wiring, should now be made to terminals L, N & E, in the
control panel on the thermal store. The control panel requires drilling to suit, in a
location as indicated above. In addition the 5 core cable from the Econotrol
needs to be wired as below, this is for the supply and enable wiring to the

COMMISSIONING
The Thermal Store Control Panel incorporates a combined thermostat for the
enable (adjustable) and manual reset high limit thermostat (preset to 90°C).
The enable thermostat should be adjusted and set to the SWITCH ON temperature
for hot water generation. There is a spring clip on the rear of the dial which can be
used to restrict the setting of this thermostat if required (see below).
The Thermostatic Control Valve/ Econotrol should be set to give the desired
secondary domestic hot water temperature set point - this should be set 5K above
the setting of the enable thermostat.
The secondary flow rate around the heat exchanger and store should be set on the
Taconova Setter Valve as indicated.
The figure in the Performance Guide under Continuous Output is the flow rate that
should be set, for the Econoplate BV model supplied.
Primary flow rates should be set, on units without primary pumps (Models M & E)
to the figure shown in the Technical Specification section of this document.
For Model EE, the Econotrol manual should be referred to for set up however the
default settings will provide hot water from the heat exchanger at 60°C, 24/7. The
only setting which MUST be changed is the Low Alarm which should be set to the
correct differential to equal a 10°C setting, e.g Set the Low alarm to 50 when the
set point temperature is 60.
