Evacuated tubes with CPC Reflector (Patented)

CPC Reflector (Patented) Introduction of CPC Reflector

SMART SOLAR Solar Water Heaters are the most well equipped set of systems to bring you the best performance in a Solar Water Heater at an affordable price!

Evacuated Tubes, A Pressurized Water Tank Made with 316L Stainless Steel and the main feature in this video, these unsuspecting pieces placed smartly beneath the solar collectors - the CPC Reflectors.

What are CPC Reflectors? How do they work? And Most importantly, How does CPC make SMART SOLAR the Most Effective Solar Water Heater in Malaysia?

In the Malaysian Market, evacuated tube solar water heaters are rising in popularity. But only a few of the heaters are provided with a CPC Reflector.

The CPC (Compound Parabolic Concentrator) is a special layer of metal that is engineered to improve the heat absorption of evacuated tube solar collectors.

Without the CPC, many brands of evacuated tube water heaters will seek to increase the heat output by adding more tubes. This will create more parts, more weight & more points of failure in your system.

What are the different between Solar water heater with and without CPC reflectors?

To illustrate our point, let’s use the data from the SS-300 (Our Latest Model) vs the STH-300 (An Old Model) as an example for comparison. The STH-300 is an old model that uses 30 Evacuated Tubes and has No CPC.

Even with all these tubes and a bright & sunny day, the STH-300 can only produce a measly 1800W of output. In contrast with the STH-300, thanks to its CPC Reflectors, the SS-300 only needs 20 Evacuated Tubes to produce a whopping 2300W of output. Easily demonstrating why more tubes doesn’t always mean more power.

But How? You may ask. It is simple. Without a CPC, most evacuated tube systems can only generate heat from surfaces facing the sun. This means at any time, only 50% of the tube is effectively producing heat.

With a CPC, the reflector bounces back the energy that would’ve gone to waste back onto the underside of the tube. Thus allowing the sun’s rays to be absorbed from every angle of the tube throughout the day and greatly improving the efficiency of the solar water heater.

SMART SOLAR is currently the only Evacuated Tube Solar Water Heater that is equipped with CPC in Malaysia. If you’re looking for the best, affordable solar water heater on the market, choose SMART SOLAR. A Smarter Choice for a Healthier Life, With SMART SOLAR.
