Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel, often also called "enamelled sheet" or "emaile," is a special type of material that combines the properties of steel with those of glass. The production of enameled steel is a technically demanding process, which includes…

energetická účinnosť

Energetická účinnosť je pomer medzi výstupom výkonu, služby, tovaru alebo energie a energetickým vstupom zlepšenie energetickej efektívnosti je zvýšenie energetickej účinnosti v dôsledku technologických zmien, zmien správania…

Energy classes

The system of energy classes in heating is a standardized way of evaluating the energy efficiency of heating systems and equipment. It helps consumers identify and compare different products in terms of their energy performance and efficiency. This…

enthalpy exchanger

An enthalpy exchanger, also known as an enthalpy recuperator, is a device used to exchange heat between two different streams of liquids or gases. Its main function is to transfer heat or cold from one stream to another, while trying to…

EPDM

EPDM is short for ethylene-propylene-diene rubber, which is a special type of synthetic rubber. It is an elastomer that has excellent properties and is widely used in various sectors of industry and manufacturing. EPDM rubber has several…

Epoxid (Epoxy)

Epoxy (Epoxy) is a polymer, specifically a thermosetting polymer, which is formed by the reaction of epoxy compounds with a hardener. This reaction leads to the creation of a strong and durable material that has different uses in different…

Epoxy

Epoxy is a type of polymer that is mainly used as an adhesive, sealant, coating or even as a building material. It is a thermoplastic substance that, after mixing two components (epoxy compound and hardener), becomes a solid and durable…

EPP

Extruded polypropylene (EPP) is a polymer material that is produced by extruding polypropylene plastic. Extrusion is a process in which plastic material is pushed through a mold to obtain the desired shape and texture. EPP is specific in that…

Equithermal regulation

Equithermal regulation is a term from the field of heating and air conditioning that refers to temperature regulation in several rooms so that an even temperature is achieved between them. This approach to temperature control aims to ensure…

equithermal regulator

Equithermal regulation of the temperature in the room consists in setting the temperature of the heated water (by regulating the heat source) based on the outside temperature. At a lower outside temperature, a higher temperature of the supplied…

ESBE

ESBE is a Swedish manufacturer and supplier of regulation and control systems for thermal technology, heating, cooling and hot water. ESBE creates various products that help optimize the operation of these systems, improve energy efficiency…

Ethernet

Ethernet is a standard type of computer network that allows data to be transferred between different devices on a local area network (LAN). It is the most widely used type of computer network for connecting devices such as computers, printers,…

exhaust fan

An exhaust fan is a device used to remove air, gases or vapors from enclosed spaces. Its main function is to create an air flow that ensures the removal of unwanted substances, odors, moisture, smoke or other polluting particles from the room…

Expansion

Expansion is a physical phenomenon that occurs when the temperature of a material changes. Since most materials have different thermal expansion at different temperatures, their volume or dimensions change. Thus, dilation refers to the…

expansion belt

It serves to prevent thermal expansion during the expansion of the floor heating and to prevent the transmission of noise between structures, e.g. wall and floor. At the same time, thanks to the additional film, it prevents the screed from leaking…

expansion tank

An expansion vessel is a vessel that serves to balance changes in liquid volume caused by temperature changes. It works as an excess pressure regulator in the system. Expansion vessels are commonly used in heating and solar systems and can also…

expansion valve

The expansion valve is an important part of refrigeration and air conditioning systems, which is used to regulate the flow of refrigerant and its pressure in the refrigeration circuit. Its main purpose is to ensure that the refrigerant passing…

Expansion vessel

The expansion tank is a component that is often used in thermal engineering and hydraulic systems, especially in heating, cooling and hot water supply systems. It is a container that serves to maintain a constant pressure and amount of liquid…

Expanzomat

An expanzomat (also called an expansion vessel) is a device used in heating and cooling systems as well as fluid media systems to compensate for changes in volume due to changes in temperature and pressure. Its main task is to ensure proper…

External storage

More often referred to as an external drive, external storage is storage that is not part of the internal parts (external) of the computer. These drives often connect to a computer using a USB, eSATA or FireWire connection. Pictured is a Drobo…
