This graph illustrates the energy storage capacity of the
Quantum Cylinder across a range of temperatures.
This graph illustrates the standing heat loss of a range
of Quantum Cylinders against arange of references.
Notes
• Dimplex Quantum values measured for direct electric cylinder in
accordance with EN12897 at a temperature difference between
water (65°C) and ambient (20°C) of 45K.
•
CHeSS standard and best values in accordance
with central heating system specification CE 51 2008,
and Energy Saving Trust publication.
•
Red Jacket calculation based on 80mm fibre glass insulation.
• Spray foam cylinder heat loss data taken from competitor
product range. The stated insulation thickness is 35mm.
•
It should also be considered that cylinder replacements are
covered under Part L1B of building regulations (conservation
of fuel and energy). Part L1B refers to the Domestic Building
Compliance Guide which calls for cylinders to have a heat loss of
no more than the high level products as specified in CE 51 2008.
