Boiler Identification

[jaydebruyne]

Anyone know what boiler this could be?

The casing was literally just a metal sheet covering the front and sides, no branding and just rested on the top.

Need to replace the stat on the hot water side.

Cheers

Is it a boiler? or just some sort of metering station
On a district or communal heating system

Its an electric boiler...

Pretty sure that looks like a metering station for district heating. Looking at the pipework there will be flow and return in from Heat scource. Flow and return to heating. Cold Jains. Hot and safety valve.

But it has 2 heat exchangers...??

One for heating and one for hot water production.

+1 there will be a data plate somewhere inside or on the back of the cover

Thats what it looks like to me.
Referred to as a heat interface unit, consumer interface unit or hydraulic interface unit.
A quick search found this that looks mighty similar

Sorry I thought you meant communal.. That's why I questioned about the heat exchangers.

What's district heating?

The cover was completely blank, inside and out as I looked for one...

What's district heating?

Main set of boilers in a boiler room/ house and pipes from there to each house / flat

What's the sticker by the right prv/pi

 

[jaydebruyne]

So ... Communal then? If that's the case why would it need heat exchangers if the supply is already heated?

Heat only boilers commercial size one for hot and one for heating prob in a set of two depending on size

What sort of property is this fitted in?
There will be a central plant room with a heat scorce. This feeds a flow and return around the building/ buildings. This terminates into the heat exchangers you are enquiring about. This then produces indirect hot water and heating close to the place where needed. The meters then measure how much heat you have used.
