SOLAR ABSORBER
Solar thermal collectors use the power of the sun to provide heat for space heating and hot water -- for free, reliably, and without an environmental impact. The heart of flat-plate and evacuated-tube collectors is the absorber. It takes up the energy in sunlight and converts it into heat. The more efficient the absorber, the greater the collector's output.
Absorber
With its highly selective blue TiNOX energy absorbers, Almeco sets industry standards. These products absorb 95% of incident sunlight. At the same time, they only lose some 4% of heat radiation, so that around 90% of the solar energy can be used as heat.
TINOX ARTLINE

TiNOX artline combines efficiency and aesthetic appeal in a unique way because of its individual colour scheme, TiNOX artline is the ideal product for those looking for an alternative to conventional blue absorbers – but who do not want to compromise on heat output.

TiNOX artline is particularly suited for use in Mediterranean countries, as collectors with TiNOX artline inconspicuously fit in with the rooftop landscapes of this region. TiNOX artline is also the perfect choice for many facades.

With TiNOX absorber, collector manufacturers can expand their product range with a high-performance product that also meets special requirements of property owners and architects.

TiNOX artline still achieves an especially high output whatever colour is chosen.
With its exceptionally low emissivity levels, the product is particularly powerful when collectors are required to deliver hightemperature results.

Degree of solar absorption α ~ 90 % 
Degree of thermal emissivity ε ~ 5 % 

TiNOX artline is deposited on copper and aluminum substrates up to 1,250 mm width.
With our in- house cutting facilities, the width and length of the substrates can be customized.

Highly selective, coated TiNOX artline absorbers are the heart of solar thermal collectors.
They absorb nearly all solar radiation and convert it into heat.
Losses due to thermal emission are very low.
Absorber substrates can be used equally well in glass-covered flat-plate and -air collectors.

TiNOX artline absorber substrates can be further processed using all common industry methods: ultrasonic welding, plasma welding, laser welding, soft soldering, forming, glueing.

Deep drawing and embossing are also possible. We recommend to contact us beforehand for such processing.

The temperature limits for further processing are as follows:

Air: 300°C for up to 20 minutes
Vacuum: 380°C for up to 60 minutes
