Hamworthy Heating has improved on an icon with its latest range of condensing boilers. The Wessex ModuMax mk3 boiler builds on the heritage of a range that has been in production for 10 years. Features include enhanced built-in control, ∆T of up to 40 K and a 10-year warranty on the primary heat cell.

Thee boilers stack vertically , offer close load matching and sit on a very small footprint. The ability to operate on a temperature difference between flow and return of 40 K helps maximise condensing performance and assists in designing heat networks.

The Wessex ModuMax mk3 is a stainless-steel, high-efficiency, fully modulating condensing, pre-mix floor-standing boiler.

There are five modules with outputs at 80/60°C of 97, 116, 147, 196 and 254 kW. Individual boilers can be stacked up to three high in up to 15 combinations.

The built-in Siemens controls enable control of up to 16 boilers in a master/slave configuration — removing the need for separate controls or building-management systems in smaller applications.

An air-inlet feature keeps combustion air and burner free of dirt particles and speeds up service and maintenance. It is all housed in a new robust steel casing with an easy-to-remove front cover.

Keith Thompson, sales and marketing director, says, ‘Although the look of the boiler has changed, it has retained the benefits of this well-loved boiler range. Plus, we’ve included all the new features at no extra cost to our customers.’
