SUNTUBE from Riomay

 
NEG's all-weather Solar Tube Collector, SUNTUBE from Riomay is a brand-new series of third generation energy package designed to provide optimally efficient solar energy collection at minimum outlay.
 
Manufactured using a combination of state-of-the-art glass-forming technology and advanced glass- to-glass and glass-to-metal sealing techniques similar to those used in the production of cathode ray tubes, SUNTUBE assures significantly better efficiency than many other solar energy collectors. Specifically, when compared with flat-plate collectors, SUNTUBE energy packages permit 30% reduction in the required collector area. This reduction is possible for hot water supplies at 60°C (140°F). Hot water temperatures of 90°C (194°F) may also be obtained. This is a level of performance not usually associated with most solar collectors.
 
Assembled into easy-to-install units, SUNTUBE provides highly efficient all weather, year-round energy collection, assuring optimum performance in summer as well as in winter weather. Further, the durable construction of the individual collector tubes and their rugged units assures against long-term performance degradation even when installed at locations with severe environmental conditions.
 
  • All-weather, year-round energy collection. High- efficiency energy collection is possible, not only in the high temperatures of summer, but also during cold winter months or other overcast conditions.
  • Long service life. A rugged, durable enclosed construction effectively prevents recurring problems such as corrosion or leaking. Furthermore, using high quality sealing techniques, vacuum pressure in the tube is maintained over its lifetime.
 
The configuration of suntube
 
  • Fully modular, NEG , assembles all the system elements into the collector modules at its plant. This reduces installation time to a minimum:; particularly work on piping and mounting.
  • Easy-to-install. The Solar Tube Collectors can be installed horizontally-an installation method that is not possible with flat-plate collectors. This not only allows the utilization of virtually any level surface, but also ensures that the collectors can be integrated fully into their architectural surroundings.
 
Collector type determines performance
 
Solar collectors can be classified into two basic types: evacuated tube collectors and flat-plate collectors. The suntube, which is an evacuated tube collector, has a superior cost performance compared to the flat-plate type.
