Distribution and Control

The heating and cooling manifold from Variotherm regulates the flow volume and distributes the water evenly in the surface heating and surface cooling systems for floors, walls and ceilings. This means that rooms are comfortably warm and pleasantly cool.

There’s something here for every application, whether you plan to connect up to 17 heating and cooling circuits to the VarioManifold 5.0 or wish to combine an old heating system with modern, low-temperature surface heating. If you want to refit a single room with surface heating, the pump microstation is the right choice for you.

VARIOMANIFOLD 5.0 FOR SURFACE HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEMS

The purpose of a heating/cooling distribution manifold is to ensure even distribution of water in the surface heating and cooling systems for floors, walls and ceilings by controlling the flow quantities precisely. That guarantees comfort in all rooms.

VarioManifold 5.0 – the modular all-rounder

Low profile in any cabinet
The individual segments are just 50 mm wide and 55 mm deep. With their compact dimensions, they fit manifold cabinets just 80 mm deep. A real space-saver!

Flexibe installation
The manifold blocks can be moved freely relative to one another and configured exactly as required – horizontally and vertically. The position relative to the floor or ceiling is also flexibly configurable.

Precision configuration

The optimal flow is set for each heating and cooling circuit on commissioning. Simply fix the ring and you’re done. Once it has been adjusted, the control valve can be returned to the value already set even after it has been closed. As a result, the ÖN DIN EN 1264-4 standard is met in full.

Expandable any time

The VarioManifold 5.0 can also be retrofitted with additional individual elements. Up to 17 heating/cooling circuits can be installed as required in this way.

Easy to clean

The transparent viewing glass of the flow meter is easy to unscrew and clean. This can be done while in operation, under pressure. Cleaning means that the flow volume (litres per hour) can be read easily and clearly at all times!

Flexible installation

One of the major advantages of Vario distribution manifold 5.0 is the modular system design. In the standard version, up to 17 individual elements can be installed next to one another as 2-block manifolds. Can also be installed as a 1-block manifold.

Special forms and different connection options can be implemented as required in practice.

PUMPED VARIOMANIFOLD 5.0 – COMB. OF SURFACE AND HIGH-TEMPERATURE HEATING

Combination of low-temperature surface heating and high-temperature heating system

If you integrate a low-temperature surface heating system in an existing high-temperature heating system, you encounter the problem of having to combine the two different flow temperatures with each other. Variotherm has developed a special pumped manifold. It means that, e.g., existing radiators (maximum design temperature approx. 60°C) can be combined with a surface heating system from Variotherm (approx. 30°C).

The hydronic system fits

The Variotherm solution guarantees that the additional pump does not affect the existing hydronic system in any way. In other words, both the radiators and the surface heating system can continue to work at full capacity!

The Variotherm pumped manifold is an intelligent injection system and depending on requirements, it either mixes hot water from the high-temperature flow into the surface heating circuit or cold water from the low-temperature return. The aluminium multi-layer composite pipes are connected to the ¾ inch Eurocone connections.

Area of use of a pumped manifold

High and low-temperature heating systems are often connected to each other for attic conversions, bathroom renovations and extensions to existing houses. Between two and 15 low-temperature heating circuits can be connected with a Variotherm pumped manifold. The thermometer clearly shows the temperatures in the heating circuit.

  2. Regulating valve
  3. Pump PMS (WILO Yonos Para 15/6)
  4. Feed & drain cock, rotating
  5. Immersion sleeve for remote sensor
  6. Thermometer
  7. Manual air-vent
  8. Flow valve, adjustable via flow indicator
  9. 230V AC, 50 Hz (provided connection cable: 3 x 0.5 mm² [max. 3 A]
  10. Locking ball valve (3/4″ female thread)
  11. Variotherm clamping screw fitting 3/4″ Eurocone
  12. Shut-off valve for easy conversion to actuator
  13. Variant with weather-guided control station
  14. Variant with fixed value control station
  15. Maximum temperature limiter

The benefits at a glance:

  • Rinse and venting option directly on the distributor
  • Hydronic balancing by way of flow rate valves
  • ¾” Eurocone connections to the surface heating circuit
  • Adjustment of the total flow rate by way of the integrated regulating valve
  • Compact design and therefore less space required
  • Two regulator options for the flow temperature – a fixed value regulator or a regulator that is guided by atmospheric conditions
  • The special compact heating pump ensures the necessary quantity of water in the low-temperature circuit

PUMP MICROSTATION – MANIFOLD SOLUTION FOR INDIVIDUAL ROOMS

The distribution manifold solution for individual rooms

The pump microstation is compact, with an individually controllable temperature: the ideal partner for extending and refurbishing individual rooms. Up to two heating circuits can be connected. This makes the pump microstation ideally suited for fitting bathrooms with surface heating.

Like the pumped VarioManifold, it was specifically developed to combine high-temperature heating systems with low-temperature surface heating systems.
