Slimline 170L Unvented Cylinder
The Megaflo Eco Slimline Indirect 170L is designed for properties where installation space is restricted. Its 491mm diameter provides a slimmer footprint than a standard-width cylinder while retaining a useful 170 litre nominal capacity.
With a maximum specified flow rate of 70 litres per minute at 3 bar, it is designed to provide mains-pressure domestic hot water for residential installations where space and hot water performance both need to be considered.
Indirect Boiler Heating
This Megaflo Eco Slimline model is an indirect unvented cylinder, using a boiler as the primary heat source for stored domestic hot water. The supplied specification gives a heat-up time of 31 minutes at 15 L/min with an 80°C primary supply.
A 3kW backup immersion heater at 240V is also included, providing additional electric heating capability when required.
Efficient Insulation
The cylinder uses 50mm CFC-free polyurethane foam insulation to help reduce heat loss from stored hot water. Its specified standing heat loss is 1.72 kWh/24h.
Internal Floating Baffle
The Megaflo Eco Slimline Indirect 170L incorporates an internal floating baffle, meaning an external expansion vessel is not required according to the supplied product specification.
Factory-Fitted Unvented Components
The cylinder is supplied with a range of factory-fitted components to support its unvented configuration, including:
- T&P valve
- 3 bar PRV
- Tundish
- Wiring centre
- 2-port motorised valve
Pressure Performance
The cylinder has a specified 3 bar operating pressure and a 16 bar maximum mains pressure. Its maximum flow rate is specified as 70 litres per minute at 3 bar.
Kiwa Approved and Made in the UK
The Megaflo Eco Slimline Indirect 170L is Kiwa approved and manufactured in the UK, making it a suitable choice for domestic unvented hot water installations where a slimline cylinder format is required.
