The basic idea of the aquatherm black system is creating a thermally balanced space that enhances the well-being of the occupants.
aquatherm black system technology is therefore not focused on air heating and circulation, but rather heat radiation from tempered walls or ceilings directly into the room and onto its occupants. The black system’s relatively large heating surfaces allow the temperature of the heating surface to be set low, which provides a soothing warmth. This is an advantage compared to small, hot surface areas such as those found in radiators or convectors.

Due to the lower flow temperature (25 to 35°C), the black system is ideally suited to work in combination with systems that generate heat at lower temperature levels, such as condensing technologies and alternative energy sources.

Another advantage is reduced air movement. This reduces dust turbulence and creates a uniform humidity.

Radiant wall/ceiling heating can save 25 to 30 percent in energy costs and makes an important contribution to a healthy indoor climate and the value of the building.

Comfort benefits

Moderate temperature setpoints (25 to 35°C) with large heating surfaces produce a uniform radiant balance. The direct heat radiation presents the human body with a comfortable, cosy warmth. The air temperature may be set lower compared to conventional heating techniques (such as radiators or convectors) yet still provide exceptional thermal comfort for the occupant.

aquatherm black system is exclusively made from fusiolen® PP-R. The physical properties specially match the requirements of the heating and cooling sector.

The exceptionally good welding properties offer a maximum in security and durability. fusiolen® PP-R also provides high temperature and pressure resistance.

A permanent operating temperature of 70 °C is no problem. Normally, the aquatherm black system operates at substantially lower temperatures than conventional heating systems.

In conjunction with the aquatherm blue pipe system (also made from fusiolen® PP-R) for climate, heating and industrial technology, aquatherm offers a complete solution for heating and cooling generators.

Connection technology part 1: Fusion

aquatherm black system grids are reconnected to each other by heating element socket welding. By heating the connection parts, the plastic merges into a cohesive and permanent connection. With the comprehensive range of aquatherm green pipe fittings, both individual connections and complete large systems can be built including distribution technology. Transition connectors to the proven aquatherm grey pipe sliding sleeve technology as well as to the aquatherm orange system and a 15 mm press connection complete the system.
