Worcester Greenskies FK240 Solar Panel
Global responsibility for nature and the environment
As part of the Bosch group, Worcester is committed to environmental protection. Product development is prioritised in the interests of the safety of people, the economical use of resources and environmental sustainability.
With this in mind Worcester is proud to offer a solar panel package for hot water heating which allows the consumer to take advantage of renewable and sustainable energy.
Worcester Greenskies FK240 Solar Panels harness the power in both direct and diffuse sunlight and convert the energy to heat for the production of hot water for the home.
The solar panels have been designed as a complement to existing heating systems which use a store of hot water in a cylinder. The existing cylinder is exchanged for a cylinder with two heat exchanger coils; one from the boiler in the property and a second from the solar panels.
The Worcester Greenskies FK240 Solar Panels are an ideal partner to the new range of condensing Greenstar regular and system boilers, with different models available in both oil and gas, which require a separate cylinder for the storage of hot water. When used together a Greenstar boiler with solar system provides a highly efficient system to give heating and hot water comfort.
A typical well sized solar system should provide around 50% of the domestic hot water requirements of a home, representing a very worthwhile saving on hot water heating costs. The remaining hot water requirement is provided by the boiler.
Using The Solar Panels
Worcester Greenskies FK240 can be used in a variety of different properties. Up to 9 panels can be connected to each pump station to provide flexibility in meeting the renewable energy needs of the property.
- Captures free solar energy and uses it to heat domestic hot water.
- Efficient collector with 95% absorption rate increases panel performance.
- Selective coating on the collector allows the panel to absorb energy from the sun even on cloudy days.
- Panels are equipped with quick fitting connections which save time and money.
- A simple controller allows quick setting of functions and features a graphical display to provide more information.
- Strong solar glass cover protects the collector from damage.
- Flat, one piece design makes panel more robust than other solar panel types.
- Panels are environmentally friendly and do not produce any direct emissions. All materials are recyclable.
