BOSS 500L Expansion Vessel 6 Bar for Sealed Heating & Chilled Water Systems

Description

BOSS Expansion Vessel 500L (6 Bar) – Sealed Heating & Chilled Water Systems

The BOSS Expansion Vessel 500L (6 Bar) is a high-performance sealed expansion vessel designed for closed-loop heating systems and chilled water applications. Engineered to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature fluctuations, it helps maintain stable system pressure, protect critical system components, and improve overall energy efficiency.

Manufactured from a high-strength steel shell and featuring a fixed butyl rubber diaphragm, the vessel effectively separates air and water to provide dependable pressure management and long service life. Its nitrogen-charged air valve with protective cap ensures reliable operation in commercial and industrial heating and cooling systems.
