Hydraulic systems: optimally designed and correctly controlled
DencoHappel GmbH, formerly known as GEA Air Treatment, is one of the leading German providers of chillers and heat pumps. The company has now published a guidebook for the optimal integration and function of suitable hydraulic systems.
The DencoHappel product portfolio comprises chillers and heat pumps for private, commercial and industrial use in the performance range of 5 to 2,500 kW. Apart from classical air- and water-cooled units, the company also offers systems with heat recovery and free-cooling features as well as for simultaneous cooling and heating operation.
Every cold and warm water system requires an optimally designed hydraulic circuit to ensure fault-free and energy-efficient operation. Since experience has shown that users have knowledge gaps in this regard, DencoHappel has now created the manual "Hydraulic integration of chillers and heat pumps" for user support.
A total of 13 sections deal with the subject of conventional as well as unusual hydraulic switching systems, so that all chiller and heat pumps can be optimally integrated into the complete circuit. Possible installations are explained using clear diagrams and charts. In addition, the most important functional principles and components of hydraulic systems are described in detail. The manual also contains important planning information and valuable tips on the system control.
From small individual units to the parallel integration of several larger units, the essential hydraulic switching systems are successively thought through and explained. Every section is designed so that it can be read and comprehended on its own. All in all, the manual is an ideal reference tool for first-time users as well as for experts who for instance need suggestions concerning the energy-saving functions. Furthermore, the manual describes the actuation of individual components, providing planning documentation which is helpful for building management automatization.
Since August 2015, the former GEA Air Treatment has been conducting business under the name DencoHappel. The company's renaming originates in the sale of GEA company shares to the affiliate Triton.
