Keraflo, manufacturer of ‘Aylesbury’ float valves and tank management systems, has launched an enhanced version of its digital water tank control system, Tanktronic.
Designed for buildings with water tanks servicing a big reserve of water, such as hospitals, the electronic tank management system ‘provides a complete solution to monitoring water levels and temperature, managing and controlling tank filling, and feeding information back to building management – all in one box’. It has been on sale for three years, and is already installed in many prominent buildings, including London’s O2 Arena.
New features on the ‘enhanced model’ include ‘add-ons’ such as the S Module, that expands the system’s operational capability; the Repeater Panel, which enables control from up to 100 m away, and the Battery Module, which provides up to two days’ normal operation in the event of power failure.
Tanktronic now also has a calendar (holiday) setting that enables users to vary tank capacity to match demand – ‘a particularly beneficial feature in preventing stagnating water breeding Legionella and other deadly bacteria’.
