V50-3 Hydrocarbon Hydronic Heating Air Sourced Heat Pump

For heating up to about 400sqm floorspace for panel radiators (55^oC)

For heating up to about 500sqm floorspace for slab heating (45^oC)

Our V50-3 Hydrocarbon Hydronics Heat Pump is purpose-built to heat water for hydronic heating systems. The cabinet and refrigeration system is pre-assembled to our design. We finish them locally,charge them with Hydrocarbons, then fine-tune and put each heat pump through quality assurance testing.

Over the years we have developed our own inhouse heatpump tuning/monitoring rig.
Every machine that leaves our factory has been fine-tuned for its application, has been "run-in" for hours, and is shipped with its own performance guarantee. When it is delivered and installed, it will work faultlessly from day one.

The V50-3 can heat water to a maximum of 60^oC, hot enough for panel radiator systems (recommend design for 55/45^oC for new radiator installations), and can be user-programmed for under-floor/slab-heating temperatures, using a quality, easy to use backlit LCD panel.

Technical data: Nominal input power: 12kW Voltage: 380/415V, (3ph) Rated Current:26Amps Pipe size: DN50 Water pressure drop: <50kPa Water flow rate: 3L/s Max outlet water: 55oC Environment range: -19oC to +45oC Compressor: 2x Copeland ZR81-KCE scroll Refrigerant: hydrocarbons Weight: 650Kg Noise: <75dBa@ 3m (Low-Noise fans optional) Dimension: 1850x1000x1950mm Warranty: 3yrs *for all systems delivered after Jan 2017 Subject to suppliers sizing and installation guidelines being followed *(there may be a travel charge for on-site service if there is a significant distance) We use hydrocarbon: Our hydronic heat pumps use hydrocarbon instead of traditional refrigerant. Using Hydrocarbon as a refrigerant is not new, is claimed to be not damaging to the ozone layer, less gas is required, and makes the heat pump more efficient. Download data sheet

Hi-Tech Low Noise Fan option For up to 15% higher fan efficiency and especially for installations where noise could be an issue, we recommend using super-efficient low-noise Ziehl-Abegg "Owlet" fans.

Recommended Primary Circulation Pump for V50-3

We offer a small range of circulating pumps to suit a variety of applications.

An essential part of any hydronic heating system is the circulating pump or pumps.

The following table lists a range of circ. pumps to compliment our Air Sourced Hydronic Heat Pumps as primary circuit pump between the heat pump and the buffertank, and as the 'zone' pump(s) which circulate the water between the buffertank and the floorcoils and/or radiator panels.

The primary circulation pump must be matched to the flow-rate required by the heat pump.

The secondary or zone pumps are usually 0.5 to 1.5 Litres per second.

Some of our circulating pumps have 3 speeds to allow for varying conditions:

Recommend Purpose-made stainless steel buffertank

With the V50-3 we recommend using one of specially designed Stainless Steel multi-port 200Lt or 400Lt buffertanks. Installing a buffertank on a hydronic heat-pump allows for zoning without causing backpressure or flow-rate fluctuations which may trip the heat-pump. Hydronic Buffertanks also reduce short-cycling which increases efficiency. With an air-sourced hydronic heat-pump, heat energy is always readily available so a larger buffertank is not generally necessary and in fact can reduce efficiency in the shoulder seasons when the system is used infrequently. (one reason why we don't recommend multiple potable hot water heat-pumps for hydronics)
