HP-60 Hydronic Expansion Tank

60-Liter (14 Gallon) Tank for Hydronic Heating & Cooling Systems| Aquasky HYDRO-PLUS Series | Made in Taiwan

HP-60 is designed specifically to absorb expanded fluid in closed-loop residential or commercial hydronic heating and cooling systems, effectively regulating pressure buildup and ensuring system safety.

HP-60 has a total volume of 60 liters (14 gallons). The tank is designed for a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar (150 psi) and a maximum operating temperature of 130 °C (266 °F). It is factory pre-charged to 1 bar (15 psi) for stable system performance and is fully compatible with propylene glycol mixture concentrations of up to 50%.

With a diameter of 39.0 cm (15.4 inches) and a height of 59.0 cm (23.2 inches), this stand-model tank comes with a heavy-duty base, providing massive expansion absorption for demanding commercial and large residential climate-control systems.

HP-60

Product Overview

The HP-60 is a 60-liter (14 gallon) hydronic expansion tank engineered specifically for closed-loop hydronic heating and cooling systems. As the fluid in your climate-control system changes temperature, it expands and contracts; the HP-60 safely absorbs this expanded fluid volume, effectively controlling the excessive pressure generated inside the system and preventing potential hazards.

Constructed from robust sheet steel tanks compliant with IAPMO and EN standards, the HP-60 is welded according to strict ASME & EN procedures by certified welders, ensuring long-lasting durability and safety. Utilizing a specialized, high-temperature-resistant EPDM rubber diaphragm, it ensures exceptionally reliable operation. To guarantee supreme robustness, every single Hydro-Plus model undergoes rigorous hydraulic testing at a pressure 1.5 times higher than the design pressure.

Manufactured with premium materials, Aquasky HYDRO-PLUS tanks are the ultimate safety choice for your hydronic heating system, delivering dependable performance and peace of mind.

Materials & Design Advantages

How the HYDRO-PLUS Pressure Tank Works

In closed hydronic heating and cooling systems, fluid volume changes drastically as the temperature rises and falls. The HP-60 safely absorbs this expanded fluid using a sealed, compressible air cushion space. It stores the fluid securely against the high-temperature EPDM rubber diaphragm, while the air chamber compresses to accommodate the volume change. This mechanism seamlessly controls excessive pressure, protects valves and piping, and maintains safe system parameters without venting fluid.

Key benefits

  • Absorbs excess fluid volume during thermal cycles.    
  • Protects system components (boilers, piping, valves) from damaging high pressure. 
  • Delivers a safe and stable system for residential and commercial hydronic applications. 
  • Guarantees peace of mind through strict manufacturing standards and a 1.5x design pressure hydraulic test.

Typical Applications 

  • High-capacity closed-loop residential and commercial hydronic heating systems
  • Large-scale hydronic cooling installations
  • Non-potable water applications (compatible with up to 50% propylene glycol mixtures)

Frequently Asked Question (FAQ)

Q1 : Does the 14-gallon HP-60 hang on a wall like the smaller models?

A: No, starting with the HP-60, these larger models are stand models that come with an integrated base so they can sit securely on the floor.

Q2 : Can I use the HP-60 for my domestic drinking water system?

A: No. The HYDRO-PLUS series, including the HP-60, is strictly designed for non-potable (non-drinking) water systems. For domestic drinking water applications or hot water heaters, please refer to our THERMAL-PLUS or RO-PLUS series.

Q3 : Are the pipe connections bigger on this floor model to handle more water flow?

A : Yes, the connection size upgrades from 1/2-inch to a 1-inch connection on this model.
