Villa stations and district heating stations covering all Indirect heating applications
An indirect substation is used when district heating network conditions, such as pressure and temperature, do not allow direct connection. When a substation is connected indirectly, a heat exchanger provides energy-efficient heat transfer. It also ensures that the primary network supply side and the secondary building installation side remain safely separated.
In this way, the building application works regardless of pressure or temperature variations in the district heating network (hydronic balancing) and is safe from pipe breaks or leaks.
Features and benefits
Integrated components ensure safe operation, increases durability and minimize whole life costs
Benefit from optimized heat transfer and system control performance
Compact design - Minimum space required for installation
Thermostatic or electronic control of heating temperature
Operates independently of differential pressure and flow temperature
Low energy loss
Wide capacity range – up to 20 MW
