Description
Air source heat pumps (ASHP) can be used in a number of different applications to replace the combustion of fuel.
Leomon manufactures large-scale industrial air source heat pumps to lead district heating schemes to replace gas heating systems on industrial facilities.
Industrial air source heat pump features
1. Ammonia refrigerant
2. Outlet water temperature: maximum 70°C
3. Minimum capacity 300kW. The maximum capacity of each unit is 1MW, and multiple units can be connected in parallel.
Industrial air source heat pumps can be delivered in two separate ways;
As a complete single slide set. If there is no space on the roof, this all-in-one solution can be mounted on the ground and all you need to do is connect the flow and return pipes as well as the power supply.
Alternatively, you can control the evaporator remotely. This provides flexibility, especially in places where decarbonization is difficult because they are too remote to find alternatives. You can place the evaporator fan bed on the roof of the building and place the rest of the slide inside the machine room. The flow and return pipes are connected to the skid as are the cables. Additional work is required to extend the refrigerant piping to the roof to connect to the evaporator fan bed.
Plan the details
Like our water source heat pumps, our air source heat pumps are custom designed for each individual application to ensure maximum efficiency.
1. Operating conditions:
When looking for an ASHP, it is important to understand the environmental conditions you need the design capacity to cover. For example; you need 400kW, but what is the outdoor temperature? This is important because heat pump capacity changes with source temperature (less capacity when colder, more capacity when warmer)
2. Physical dimensions:
Due to the physical properties of air, when considering large building or district heating scenarios (resulting in large units) we need large volumes of air to generate heat. 400kW ASHP (5°C ambient) Dimensions are 8m long x 3m wide
3. Cold air release:
It is important to consider that when we draw air through the evaporator, we take away heat. On a cold day this could mean X kilowatts of negative Y degrees Celsius air being blown over the roof or ground, risking damage to the surrounding area. A study should be conducted to see if there are any effects.
