The completely diffusion-resistant geothermal probe with protective jacket
The completely diffusion-resistant GEROtherm® DUPLEX-REX geothermal probe prevents the penetration of gaseous substances. The double-U probe for shallow geothermal use. Resists internal pressure up to PN16 at 20°C and PN20 at 20°C.
The foot (U-bend) features the same geometry as the double-U probes PN20, but with a vapour-deposited metallic film layer and protective lacquer coating. The core pipe, which carries the medium, is made from state-of-the-art, crack-resistant PE100-RC and is certified to SKZ HR3.26. The pipe’s diffusion resistance is achieved by using a polymer-matrix film with an integral diffusion barrier. It also features a scratch-resistant protective jacket for mechanical protection.
Core pipe made from PE100-RC (RC = resistance to crack); polypropylene PP protective jacket
