Description

The High Temperature Air Source Heat Pump (HTASHP) is a heavy-duty thermal system engineered for industrial processes, district heating, and fossil-fuel boiler replacement. Operating on the reverse Carnot cycle, the unit absorbs low-grade ambient heat down to -25°C and delivers usable water or process heat up to 85°C without auxiliary electric heaters. Designed for system integrators and HVAC contractors, it meets strict decarbonization mandates while sustaining continuous high-temperature output.

 

Key Features

 

85°C Max Water Temperature: Direct drop-in replacement for gas/oil boilers in existing high-temperature radiator networks and industrial thermal loops.

Full Heating Capacity Down to -20°C: Enhanced Vapor Injection (EVI) scroll compressor maintains refrigerant mass flow in sub-zero ambients, eliminating severe capacity drop-offs.

Economizer Plate Heat Exchanger: Dual-stage subcooling circuit boosts overall Coefficient of Performance (COP) by up to 18% in low ambient conditions.

Low-GWP Refrigerant Options: Factory configurations available for R134a, R410A, and natural refrigerant R290, complying with F-gas regulations.

Modular Scalability: Parallel connection support up to 16 units, delivering a centralized heating capacity of up to 2.4 MW.

Technology & Performance

 

EVI Compression Mechanics
Intermediate-pressure refrigerant vapor is injected into the compression chamber mid-cycle, controlling discharge temperature and boosting mass flow at low suction pressures. This prevents motor thermal overload and sustains 80°C water output at -15°C outdoor ambient.


Dynamic Defrost Logic
Thermal imaging sensors and real-time pressure transducers monitor evaporator coil surface enthalpy. Reverse-cycle defrost initiates only when required, minimizing thermal inertia loss in the buffer tank.


Core Bill of Materials (BOM)
Expansion Valves: Electronic Expansion Valves (EEV) with 500-step resolution.
Heat Exchangers: Shell-and-tube or brazed AISI 316 stainless steel plate heat exchangers rated to 4.5 MPa working pressure.
Controller: Industrial PLC (Siemens / Carel) with Modbus RTU/TCP protocols for BMS integration. 

 

Applications

 

Industrial Processes: 75°C to 85°C water loops for textile dyeing, industrial washing, chemical reactor pre-heating, and food pasteurization.

District Heating: Multi-story residential and municipal retrofits utilizing existing cast-iron radiator networks (70°C supply requirement).

Agricultural Dehydration: Constant-temperature greenhouse heating and commercial product drying kilns.

Hybrid Boiler Integration: Baseload heat source positioned downstream/upstream of gas boilers, cutting annual natural gas consumption by 65% to 75%.

 

OEM & ODM Customization

 

Hydraulic Layout: Custom port positioning, variable-speed circulation pumps, and internal expansion vessel sizing per project schematics.

Structural Engineering: Galvanized steel frames with C4 powder coating or full marine-grade 304/316 stainless steel enclosures.

Electrical Protocols: Voltage tailoring (220V–480V, 50Hz/60Hz) and UL/CSA compliant panel layouts.

Software & Branding: Custom HMI touch-panel firmware, multi-language UI, and private-label badging.

 

Quality Control & Manufacturing Standards

 

Helium Leak Detection: 100% pressure-vessel and circuit helium mass spectrometry testing (leak rate < 1 x 10^-7 Pa·m^3/s).

Run-Test Chambers: Fully automated psychrometric testing simulating -30°C to +50°C environments to verify capacity and COP under load prior to dispatch.

Electrical Verification: 2000V high-voltage dielectric withstand testing and earth continuity checks on every unit.

Certifications: ISO 9001:2015 facilities. Compliance with CE (Machinery Directive, PED 2014/68/EU), ErP Directive (Efficiency Class A++ / A+++), and RoHS.

 

Packaging & Shipping

 

Crating: Fumigation-free plywood crating with internal elastomer compressor shock mounts. Moisture-barrier vacuum-sealed foil bagging with silica gel desiccants.

Handling: Base frame integrated with forklift slots and certified crane lifting lugs.

Logistics: Standardized 20'GP/40'HQ container loading equipped with tilt-watch and shock-watch indicators.

 

FAQ

 

Q: What is the exact heating capacity reduction at -15°C ambient temperature?

A: At -15°C dry bulb ambient and 65°C water output, heating capacity retains approximately 72% to 75% of nominal rating. Complete psychrometric performance matrices are available in our engineering datasheet.

Q: Can this unit operate with existing high-temperature radiator systems?

A: Yes. Stable water delivery up to 80°C to 85°C eliminates the need to replace existing high-temperature cast-iron or steel radiators.

Q: What is the minimum water flow rate requirement through the plate heat exchanger?

A: For the HT-100I model, rated water flow is 5.2 m^3/h with an allowable pressure drop under 45 kPa, preventing internal freezing or excessive hydraulic resistance.

Q: What documentation is provided with the shipment?

A: CE Declaration of Conformity, PED pressure vessel test certificates, individual factory psychrometric test reports, electrical schematics, and the Installation & Maintenance Manual.
