Year-round heating supply and coverage of refrigeration requirements in summer for a 40,000 sqm service and hotel complex in a landscaped environment near Bordeaux airport
Total capacity of the SPECTRUM heat pump: 1 MW heating and 740 kW refrigeration
The entire building complex and the individual buildings themselves will be certified according to the standard for high environmental quality (BREEAM)
The quarter wants to become future-proof and eco-friendly and no longer be dependent on wildly fluctuating oil and gas prices
The SPECTRUM Water feeds into a heating/refrigeration network that supplies the building complex with hot water (55 °C) for space heating and with cold water (7 °C) for space cooling in the winter
The two QUANTUM Air machines, each with a refrigeration capacity of 1 MW, cover additional cooling requirements in the summer
Future-proof heating: not dependent on fluctuating oil and gas prices and changing legal regulations
Low running costs: due to high efficiency and low maintenance costs
Low noise emissions and reduced space requirements
Supply reliability and operational reliability: ensuring pleasant room temperatures for maximum tenant convenience
Coverage of heating and cooling needs: comfort climate control; attractive to tenants
Expanded capacity range: the entire complex can be supplied by a central heat pump
Top industry-beating seasonal efficiency values (heating SCOP 45/55 to 6.11; cooling SEER to 8.26), especially under part load (~ 75% of the operating time); these result in lower operating costs and lower indirect emissions for the system
Due to the oil-free magnetic bearing of the compressor shaft, there is no loss of power or efficiency and no mechanical wear throughout the machine’s service life
Eco-friendly low-GWP refrigerant HFO R-1234ze for very low direct emissions from the system in regard to the TEWI value, and for bonus points in the BREEAM sustainability certification for buildings
Hydraulic switching allows the system to be used both for refrigeration (space cooling) and for heating (space heating)
In chiller mode, waste heat is used to regenerate the probe array, among other things, which allows optimal utilisation of primary energy and the ground as a heat store
Maximum operational reliability due to redundant compressor distribution and an oil-free machine design
The extremely compact, light and simple machine design reduces the effort required for installation and maintenance, and it also saves space
A very low noise level ensures that sound emissions are low, so the machine can be integrated unobtrusively in the landscape concept of the quarter
