German Quality
Apricus pump stations are German designed and
manufactured and meet the highest quality
standards.
Easy System Monitoring
The Apricus pump station incorporates a
number of feedback devices to help monitor
the operation of the solar system:
- Two temperature gauges to clearly show
the delta-t between the supply and return.
- Flow meter to show the flow rate through
the collector.
- Pressure gauge, to check system charge
pressure
In addition the Apricus Sentinel controller
provides comprehensive system information,
includes 4 different temperature readings,
pump operation time and even kWh heat
output record.
If an Apricus Sentinel S6 model controller
is chosen, an external LCD display or data
logger can be easy attached.
Insulated Casing
The pump station casing is made from a
moulded EPP foam, which provides excellent
insulation and forms a rigid, protective
shell.
Scaleability

For an application with more than 90tubes,
multiple Apricus pump stations can be used
in parallel.
Fast, Easy Installation
The Apricus pump station is designed with
ease of installation as a key feature.
Mounting is possible on a wall, or directly
onto a tank, and gauges are removable with
the system running. With the integrated an
air eliminator and flow meter is it a
straightforward job to bleed the system
clear of air and ensure optimal flow rate
is established.
Neat!
Combining many components into the one
unit, the Apricus pump station makes the
installation a lot neater. This helps to
make the water heating system look more
like an appliance rather than a mess of
pipes and cables.
