The Altherma Heat Pump system from Daikin consists of a 6kW condenser unit 'hydro-box' heating/cooling package and a 150 litre un-vented hot water cylinder, supplying under floor heating to the kitchen/living area, master and second bedrooms and bathroom/hallway. The hydro-box is small enough to be installed in a cupboard, along with the cylinder and under floor heating manifolds.
Thanks to a new water-cooled version, Daikin Europe NV has extended the operational scope of its VRVII inverter driven dx air conditioning system. The system is designed for use in new-build commercial projects where no roof or external space is available for outdoor condensing units, or where stringent noise restrictions apply. It can also be fitted to an existing chilled water/cooling tower circuit during refurbishment operations. Also, the system layout allows operation independent of the ambient condition. Cooling is achieved by means of a plate heat exchanger, located within the condensing unit casing and supplied with water at temperatures between 10 and 45°C from a cooling tower/dry cooler and - if necessary - a boiler. Capacities range from 27.3 to 81.9kW.
Available in three models, with capacities between 7.1 and 12.5kW (cooling) and 8.0 and 14.5kW (heating), a non inverter series of R-410A operated Sky Air heat pump and cooling only split conditioning systems has been launched by Daikin Europe. Designed to suit light commercial and residential applications, the system has EERs up to 2.84
Offices in the Wood House building in Woodingdean, East Sussex, are benefiting from air conditioning provided by the Daikin R- 410AMini VRVII-S equipment. The installation comprises eight Mini VRV heat pump inverter systems with capacities of 14-15.5kW (cooling) and 16-18kW (heating) supplying conditioned air via 24 ceiling - concealed indoor fan coil units.
