The Solaris range of non-toxic heat transfer fluids with antifreeze function, are industry proven to maximise heat output, reduce maintenance, lower running costs, and provide system longevity.
This system consists of a solar collector array that absorbs solar radiations and transforms it into thermal energy. Heat transfer fluid that may be water, any other liquid or air can be passed through the collector to absorb the heat. Heat transfer is either by active/forced circulation mode or passive/natural mode.
Integration of solar thermal energy into industrial process heat Solar energy systems can either be applied as the power supply in terms of electrical energy or directly to a process in terms of industrial process heat (IPH).
