HubbellCarbon Steel Buffer Tanks

SHARE

The primary function of a buffer tank is to prevent short cycling of a boiler or chiller. Our carbon steel buffer tanks store energy produced in a boiler or chiller and release this energy as required into the system. Typical systems operate well below design loads and the use of a buffer tank introduces this stored energy in lieu of cycling the boiler or chiller, this reduction in cycling increases equipment longevity. Hubbell offers traditional two and four port design configurations with a range of connection sizes as referenced in our submittal data sheets. To meet the wide scope of job site specific connection sizes, the Hubbell buffer tank can also be configured with owner specific requirements.
