Description
IBO C.W.U. 8 BASIC Diaphragm Vessel
IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels are expansion tanks designed for hot and cold water installations, used to maintain and equalize pressure resulting from changes in water volume. As the manufacturer, we design the C.W.U. BASIC series with a butyl diaphragm and a carbon steel body coated with epoxy paint, ensuring durable and trouble-free operation in water installations. The series is available in capacities from 5 to 50 liters.
Who is it for?
- Water and sewage installation companies – we supply proven, ready-to-install components for hot and cold water installations with complete Dambat technical documentation.
- Sanitary installation designers – we offer vessels with documented pressure and capacity parameters, facilitating system selection and planning.
- Wholesalers and technical stores – we enable you to expand your range with an economical series of C.W.U. diaphragm vessels available in a wide range of capacities.
- Service technicians and maintenance departments – we provide vessels covered by a 24-month manufacturer’s warranty and supported by Dambat’s authorized service center.
Applications
- Maintaining and equalizing pressure in hot and cold water installations – compensating for changes in water volume resulting from heating.
- Operation in installations filled with glycol mixtures at a maximum concentration of 50%.
- Protecting water systems in residential buildings, commercial facilities, and industrial installations.
- Working with pumps and pressure systems requiring certified devices compliant with Directive 2014/68/EU.
Features, description, and technical data
The IBO C.W.U. BASIC series from Dambat includes diaphragm vessels for hot and cold water installations, available in capacities from 5 to 50 liters. High-quality materials and quality control at every stage of production ensure consistent parameters and long-term equipment operation.
The vessel body is made of thick carbon steel coated with anti-corrosion varnish and an external powder epoxy coating, ensuring durable surface protection. A butyl diaphragm is installed inside the steel shell; butyl is characterized by high tensile strength and very low gas permeability. The diaphragm completely separates the water from the compressed air cushion, protecting the steel body against internal corrosion.
A sealed valve (car tire valve) is located at the rear of the vessel, under the cover, and is used to check and adjust the pre-charge pressure with a standard compressor. The vessels meet the requirements of Pressure Directive 2014/68/EU.
Parameters of the IBO C.W.U. BASIC series:
- Diaphragm: YES – butyl
- Gas permeability: very low
- Body: carbon steel coated with anti-corrosion varnish and powder epoxy paint
- Compliance: PED Pressure Directive 2014/68/EU
- Approved media: water, glycol mixtures up to a 50% concentration
Detailed technical data for individual models (pre-charge pressure, operating pressure, dimensions, and weight) is available in the manufacturer’s technical documentation. Warranty: IBO – 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Dambat is the only authorized service provider.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ) – IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels
What are IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels used for?
IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels are designed for hot and cold water installations to maintain and equalize pressure resulting from changes in water volume. The butyl diaphragm separates the water from the air cushion, stabilizing the operation of the entire system and protecting it against sudden pressure spikes.
How does the IBO C.W.U. BASIC series differ from the IBO C.O. BASIC series and GBV tanks?
IBO C.W.U. BASIC vessels are designed for hot and cold water installations and feature a butyl diaphragm. The IBO C.O. BASIC series consists of vessels for closed heating and solar installations with an EPDM diaphragm and a pre-charge pressure of 1.5 bar. GBV tanks are vertical hydrofor vessels for water supply systems, with significantly higher capacities and a different range of applications.
Where can IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly online. IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels are available from our sales partners, installation wholesalers, and authorized online distributors cooperating with the Dambat brand.
What is the warranty period and where should service requests be submitted?
IBO C.W.U. BASIC series diaphragm vessels are covered by a 24-month (2-year) manufacturer’s warranty. Dambat is the only authorized service provider – the contact form is available at dambat.pl/pages/serwis.
How do you adjust the pre-charge pressure in IBO C.W.U. BASIC vessels?
A sealed valve (car tire valve) located at the rear of the vessel, under the cover, is used to adjust the pressure. The pressure can be increased or reduced using a standard compressor. The pre-charge pressure should be selected according to the parameters of the specific installation and the Dambat manufacturer’s technical documentation.
Are IBO C.W.U. BASIC vessels suitable for operation with glycol?
Yes – IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels are approved for operation with glycol mixtures at a maximum concentration of 50%.
What material is the diaphragm in IBO C.W.U. BASIC vessels made of?
IBO C.W.U. BASIC diaphragm vessels are equipped with a diaphragm made of butyl, a material characterized by high tensile strength and very low gas permeability. The diaphragm permanently separates the water from the compressed air cushion inside the tank.
