Armstrong has extended its award-winning MBS range of integrated heating solutions. Previously available for applications from 120 to 320kW, the MBS modular solution (which solves the problems associated with maximising efficiency of condensing boilers) can now be used for applications up to 690kW.
The MBS incorporates fully modulating boilers, variable primary pumps, automatic fill/pressurisation unit and integrated controls, all pre-specified for optimum efficiency, and pre-assembled for rapid installation on site. It enables excellent boiler efficiencies to be achieved and exceeded without time-consuming mixing and matching of system components.
Instead of treating the condensing boiler in isolation, the MBS matches pumps, controls and hydraulic system design. This ensures compatibility of components and enables specifiers to meet and exceed the boiler efficiency levels required under the new Part L of the Building Regulations with energy-efficient, low carbon performance designed into the system as standard.
Part L2 calls for minimum overall boiler efficiencies of 84% in new build and 80% in existing buildings. The MBS can achieve overall seasonal efficiencies of 94%, providing significant energy savings and carbon reductions throughout the lifetime of the plant.
