a+++ HeatingFeatures & benefits
- Single phase heating outputs including 4kW, 6.5kW and 9kW, each rated at -5°C air temperature and 55°C water flow temperature
- Featuring sound-reducing features, such as acoustic cotton sound insulation in the casing and twin eccentric cam levers with balancing weights, each heat pump operates with ultra-low sound levels and is Quiet Mark accredited
- Designed for installation with the Aerona Smart Controller, the Aerona R290 can be remotely managed and monitored to assist heat pump installers with off-site diagnostic support as well as facilitating weather and load compensation, heating curve adjustments and set-up support
- Features built-in PWM circulating pump, DC twin rotary compressor, low- and high-pressure protection controls, discharge temperature protection controls and factory-fitted automatic air vent and 3-bar pressure relieve valve
- Uses electronic expansion valve to precisely control the flow of R290 refrigerant into the evaporator as well as a 4-way valve to divert the refrigerant flow for the defrost operation
- Incorporates R290 refrigerant safety features including a refrigerant leak sensor and independent ventilation channels allowing for fresh air intake
- Units have an anti-freeze protection heater on the plate heat exchanger and heated base tray. Mechanical anti-freeze valves can be used to protect the external system pipework, as glycol antifreeze cannot be used
- Multiple condensate drain holes in the base tray and overflow holes facilitate the clear removal of condensate from the heat pumps
