GEROtherm® VARIO

The conical, pressure loss-optimised geothermal probe

Category:

Description

Principle:

Double-U probe for shallow geothermal use. Resists internal pressure up to PN16 at 20°C and PN20@20°C.

Design:‎

The geometry of the probe foot (U-bend) is identical to that of the DUPLEX double-U probes. Optimised probe pipe with the same outside diameter as the DUPLEX double-U probes with variable wall thickness made from PE 100-RC.

Product Details

Material
  • Polyethylene PE100-RC (RC = resistance to crack)
Applications
  • Temperature range: –20°C/­+40°C
  • Pressure resistance: up to PN16@ 20°C/­SDR 11
