| - | There are many different types of expansion vessels. In smaller systems the membrane type with a fixed gas charge are the most commonly used.The advantage of an expansion vessel over an open header tank is that it is sealed from the atmosphere preventing oxygen entering the system. A rubber membrane separates the gas charge from the water side. The working principle of a fixed gas charge vessel can be seen in Tutorial 2 Fixed charge vessels are sometimes also referred to as variable pressure expansion vessels. | + | There are many different types of expansion vessels.
