Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Evacuated tubes manifolds, rails, PTR valves
2 collectors each with 50 tubes

100tubes in total 58mm x1800mm tubes.

Pickup from Melbourne or can deliver anywhere in australia at buyers expense @ $20 per 100K. (I'd have to do it myself as packing them safely would be impossible)

Asking $1500. Worth over $4K new.

I just cant deal with the massive amount of heat these things generate.

Suit hydronic heating / pool heating or hot water for a school.

These are very cool,err hot.
I like that they have an inflow and outflow for fluid.
The chinese** are using heat pipes on theirs . ks
I don't know for sure but the heatpipe we bought years ago didn't really work that well.
So I'm glad to see that yours do not use that.

I'm surprised my house hot water runs the heat pipes in the tubes and works too well in summer. I have a blanket over 1/2 of it to reduce the headaches with boiling copious quantities of water and thats only 20 tubes!

the 100 tubes is a phenomenal amount of heat capture, if only 1 could justify 800L of oil (tank and tubes) then the whole thing should be more stable and could use it to heat the house too.
