Flat Plate
Solar Water Heating
by South Africa's Leading Supplier
Flat plate solar collector technology is one oldest
and most widely used technologies in solar water heating panels. The simplicity
of the technology makes it easy to manufacture offering absolutely great value
for money.
ITS Solar is known to be a leader in the design and manufacturing of flat
plate solar collectors and manufactures one of the most efficient flat plate
collectors on the market. The ITS FTP2.0 flat plate collector recently earned
us much praise for achieving the highest efficiency rating at SABS. ITS has
decided to standardize on the manufacturing of our 2m² horizontal flat plate
due to its installation versatility and efficiency
Key features:
- Class leading efficiency
- Through careful design ITS is able to offer class leading efficiency
on our collectors. Unlike many of our competitors, we are not only manufacturing
a panel that is aesthetically pleasing, but we also utilise the proper
materials and material thicknesses on the inside of the collector to ensure
a high thermal output even after many decades of operation.
- Sleek low profile
design - Designed to be aesthetically pleasing and with minimal
visual impact and wind resistance.
- Beautiful finish
- ITS uses only high quality finishing materials on our products to ensure
the product will even after years of exposure to the outside elements
still remain as good looking as the day you bought it.
- Superior corrosion
resistance - ITS uses high purity metals and quality finishes in
the manufacturing of our collectors to ensure superior corrosion resistance.
- Freeze resistance
– Flat plate collectors are prone to freeze when exposed to sub zero temperatures
for extended periods but when our panel is combined with our advanced
control system it will withstand even the harshness of an European winter.
- Hail resistance
– Covered with a 4mm tempered glass our FTP2.0’s have survived some really
serious hail storms. At SABS it was tested with hail stones of up to 38mm
without any damage.
- Easy installation
and maintenance free operation - ITS solar collectors are designed
with a groove in the frame to enable easy mounting with clip in brackets.
The collector also includes a dedicated temperature sensor pocket for
easy integration with a system controller. ITS collectors are designed
to be maintenance free.
- 5 year warrantee
- ITS flat plate technology comes standard with a 5 year warrantee. Due
to our advanced EPDM sealing techniques and high quality materials the
products have a life expectancy of more than 20 years. ITS solar collectors
have survived rigorous testing by the SABS.
