At Lorivan, we design and manufacture buffer tanks in stainless steel or coated steel. These stratified buffer tanks are used to store hot water, cold water, chilled water or domestic hot water. Made in Belgium, built on expertise.
Available finishes for our buffer tanks:
Buffer tanks for sanitary applications are made of 316L stainless steel. These stainless steel pressure tanks for domestic hot water (DHW) are fully pickled and passivated, with a 2B surface finish.
We can also insulate the buffer tanks with:
The right insulation depends on the environment, setup and desired energy efficiency. That is why we equip buffer tanks with a custom insulation solution, such as:
Lorivan also builds hydraulic separators (low-loss headers) for heating and cooling systems, designed to the customer's specifications and sizing. They help solve pressure and flow issues, hydraulically decouple circuits and can also act as an air separator or dirt separator.
Lorivan buffer tanks are in set i in HVAC systems, domestic hot water production, cooling and chilled water circuits, thermal energy storage and peak buffering. They are suitable for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
Lorivan combines Belgian production with technical know-how and a practical approach. You work directly with a manufacturer from Roeselare who thinks along with you, finishes everything properly, and delivers what is technically needed. From a single piece to a small series.
Production in Belgium
Flexibility in design and execution
Fast delivery times
Focus on safety and compliance
A buffer tank is used to temporarily store energy or volume and to stabilize the operation of the system. An expansion vessel accommodates volume changes caused by temperature fluctuations.
Yes. We will look together at which material choice best suits the medium, the environment and the technical requirements.
It depends on the application, the flow rate, the installation, and the desired buffering effect. We are happy to help you with the correct sizing.
Where required, we build in accordance with the PED directive and align the execution with the applicable standards.
Yes, provided the right choice of materials, finish and insulation. We would be happy to advise you on that.
