A


s one of industry’s most trusted suppliers of hydronics, ESBE considers its ‘Flex Box’ concept offers customers the optimum


solution for managing space heating: featuring as it does high efficiency and the ability to control multiple zones, using a prefabricated, space-saving piece of equipment. The ESBE compact. Manifold Box GMB600


is a modular distribution unit, developed to accurately control two or three zones, which can be fitted with the manufacturer’s powerful Gxx300 series circulation units (Size DN20) either in insulated or uninsulated format. Encompassing ESBE’s renowned standards of design and engineering, the GMB600 features left and right connection ports for the supply line. The two incoming ports for supply line are to avoid unnecessary piping and speed up the installation. A cap (C) is included to plug the unused supply line, while an air vent valve permits 3600orientation for mounting in challenging situations. GRC is only available in DN25/32. GMB Manifold is for DN20 circulation units. Darren Myers, ESBE’s Sales Director for the


UK and Ireland, commented: “The Manifold Box GMB600 represents one of our best- selling lines as it offers ease of installation and dependable performance to suit a wide variety of situations, including commercial, education or healthcare settings such as care homes or even small hotel and leisure centre. Their design and straightforward commissioning characteristics – such as the simple screw setting for hydraulic separation - save engineers time on site while the units are also very low maintenance. The Manifold box can be fitted with a thermometer, while ESBE also produces a cover strip to make the transition when units are being installed within the wall construction. Full technical specifications for the GMB600 are contained on the product data sheet, while project specific advice is available from ESBE’s regional sales engineers or the company’s distribution partners.
