نفذت شركة IBS - Integrated Building Solutions بنجاح مشروع supply, installation, testing and commissioning of a central solar water heating system لـ مشروع جامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن (KFUPM). The facility required a dependable, high-capacity hot water supply able to meet continuous daily demand across a large institutional campus, while reducing electricity consumption and long-term operating costs.

The system was delivered as a complete rooftop plant — solar collection, insulated storage, and automated control — engineered for consistent hot water availability and long-term operational reliability.

نطاق عمل IBS

كانت IBS مسؤولة عن:

  • Supplying and installing a complete solar water heating system

  • Installing flat-plate solar collector arrays on concrete bases at roof level, set at a uniform tilt angle for maximum year-round solar gain

  • Supplying and installing insulated hot water storage and heating tanks

  • Fabricating and installing fully insulated interconnecting pipework, complete with expansion vessels and safety valves

  • Supplying and installing electrical control panels for automatic operation of the heating cycle and circulation pumps

  • Integration with the facility's plumbing and utility infrastructure

  • Testing, commissioning and handover of the complete system

المنتجات الموردة
