2.1. CSM module

 

The CSM modules are Rubitherm’s standard multi-purpose PCM panels. They are made from aluminium with an efficient anti-corrosion coating and can be filled with both our RT and SP materials, providing maximum flexibility to the user, depending on intended use.

The core advantages of the CSM panel are

   
  • flexible volume and storage capacity with thicknesses from 5 to 27mm available
  • can be filled with all our proven PCMs RT, RT high capacity and SP
  • wide temperature range from -10 to 86°C depending on intended use and requirements
  • stable and rugged casing for maximum resistance to rough conditions and treatment, survives drop test from 3m height
  • excellent heat transfer from medium to PCM through aluminium casing
  • leak proof, 100% test of CSM panels to ensure pressure tightness
  • anti-corrosion coating inside and outside – usable in most heat transfer media including sea water
  • non-flammable
  • maximal use of available volume and automatic volume adaptation to PCM expansion
  • suitable for large order quantities
  • easy and fast to clean smooth metal surface, ideal for HVAC applications
  • flexible surface design and colouring available on request
  • other types are producible by adequate quantities
   
  other Applications
 
  • PCM Compact Storage Unit
  • special air / heat Compact Storages for specific buildings
  • Transport of fragile, temperature sensitive devices, machines and optical
    equipment, protection of products from temperature fluctuations, that could
    lead to impairment, damage or de-calibration
  • Integrated solutions in Safety cabinets and building elements like walls, etc to increase comfort,
    fire load limit and thermal protection / fuse
  • Radiant panel cooling and heating systems - e.g. cooling ceilings as part of
    HVAC solutions
