Product description
The device under consideration, specifically model number NVX 2060, is a heat exchanger solely used with dishwashers. The purpose of the NVX 2060 is to reduce energy consumption of commercial dishwashers by recovering heat from used hot water and transferring the heat to the incoming cold water. The NVX 2060 is a heat and drain exchange system that consists of an enclosed, double walled copper vessel. The vessel’s core consists of an enclosed metal coiling surrounded by PEX coiling, used for water storage. The inner coiling allows for dissipation of the inner fluid’s heat, allowing the transfer of heat to the cooled water. The device also contains inlets, outlets and a circulator pump used for the movement of hot and cold water.
