The fuly-assembled manifold made from PE 100 is integrated into the manifold chamber. The manifold has @ pohmer ball vave DN 32 for each connection inthe flow segment as a cut-off device and a flowmeter which can be adjusted and cut ff of also a polymer ball ‘valve nthe return segment The ball valve DN 25 which is already installed onthe top ofthe manifold aids optimum filing, rinsing and ventlation, Pipe sockets {ed from the chamber forthe fd circuit connections and the header pipe connections which are welded tight to the chamber wall. Inthe cease of chambers with 6 outlets, welded pl pipes are available on request. The manifold chamber has a seal in the cover. The manifold is pressure tested inthe plant; the manifold chamber is tested in the plant for leaktightness. The cover ofthe manifold chamber can be lacked. bal valves inthe main 9.2 Safety Installation Use in line with specification The manifold chamber isto be used exclusively forthe connection of ground:-source systems, The manifold chamber i intended for construction inthe ground. ~The heat transfer fuid used must meet the specification in section 7 ‘Working inside the manifold chamber Work in the manifold chamber must generally only be cartiod out by {ualfied and trained personnel Following completion of the workin the manifold chamber the cover is tobe locked and secured against unauthorised entry using the locking sorews, Bo «Fisk of suffocation in the chamber - Sufficient ventlation sto be ensured ~ Atleast one person should remain outside the chamber for saety reasons ~The chamber can be walked over witha welght of upto 200kg, not trven over.
