Flowthru Expansion Vessels
Vessels for cold-water applications are long-life and ideally suited for controlling the pressure in domestic as well as industrial applications. Providing potable water at a pre-defined pressure.
The purpose of an expansion tank is to compensate for the variation in the volume of water caused by a change in temperature within the heating system.
Flowthru Expansion Vessels
The Flowthru range of tanks are ideally suited for systems where the stored water in the tank is not circulated due to a maintained level of pressure in the system.
Our Flowvess Expansion Vessel range includes vessels for both heating systems and potable water and sizes from 2 litre all the way up to 1000 litres or more for use on commercial applications. We can supply horizontal or vertical vessels with 6, 10, 16 and 25 bar versions available.
Potable Expansion Vessels for cold-water applications are long-life and ideally suited for controlling the pressure in domestic as well as industrial applications. Providing potable water at a pre-defined pressure.

Flowthru Vessels range of tanks are ideally suited for systems where the stored water in the tank is not circulated due to a maintained level of pressure in the system. Complete with a Flowthru connection diverts system water into and, more importantly, out of the tank while the pump is running. This constant flushing action assures that the water in the tank remains as fresh as possible and eliminates the possibility of stagnant water during normal system operations.
How do expansion vessels work? An expansion vessel is a small tank that is used to absorb the expansion of water in a closed water heating system or domestic hot water system. As the water heats up, it expands. This expansion of water can cause a number of problems in a closed water heating system, such as:
High pressure: As the water expands, the pressure in the system can rise to dangerous levels. This can damage the pipes, valves, and other components in the system. Water hammer: When the water expands, it can create a shock wave that travels through the system. This can cause the pipes to bang and vibrate, which can damage the pipes and fittings. Corrosion: High pressure and water hammer can also contribute to corrosion of the pipes and other components in the system.
