Compression heat pumps In touch with heat pumps for industry and commerce engineering for a better world

In industry and commerce, the requirements for heating and process heat are highly specific. Heat pumps can very often satisfy these needs. Thanks to their efficiency and short amortization ­period, they represent an environmentally compatible and economically attractive alternative to conventional heating systems. In touch with your processes and your requirements Efficient heat pump solutions The name GEA Refrigeration Technologies of course indicates company affinity to the production of cooling systems. Our engineers, however, are also accomplished s ­ pecialists with heat pumps. To be...

The sustainable, reliable solutions offered by heat pumps are rapidly improving in efficiency and payback periods. For the “greenest” office in the Netherlands, an ammonia-based heat pump with V compressor provides heat energy in the winter with exceptionally great efficiency.

Instead of separately generating cold for refrigeration and heat for pasteurization, a British dairyproduct processor at its plant in Manchester counts on GEA heating-cooling cogeneration with heat pumps. In touch with Robert Wiseman Dairies Milk in a contrast of temperature cycles The refrigeration plant at Robert Wiseman Dairies in England had become obsolete. The company was confronted by the choice of replacing the refrigerant R22 by a more environmentally friendly solution, or of investing in a completely new plant based on ammonia as refrigerant. Although planning revealed that an...

To ensure that milk is not only tasty, but also healthy, GEA systems with heat pumps provide the required process heat and refrigeration – at extremely energy-efficient levels, thanks to “heat recycling”. This was the point at which our new refrigeration plant, plus heat pump, came into play. This heat pump can raise the waste-heat temperature from 32 °C / 89.6 °F to over 80 °C / 176 °F, a ­ evel at which the heat can be used for the hot-water circulation cycle of l the pasteurization unit. A precisely controlled valve mixes cooler water into the ­ ycle c to achieve the ­ ptimal water...

A new greenhouse in Holland? At first glance, nothing spectacular. The orchid breeder Maurice van der Hoorn, though, has installed the first greenhouse in the Netherlands that functions without natural gas. A heat pump supplies his Phalaenopsis orchids with heat and cooling – throughout the entire year. In touch with Van der Hoorn Orchids A green greenhouse It is no secret that the Dutch love flowers. In 2006 the orchid breeder Maurice van der Hoorn, owner and operator of Van der Hoorn Orchids, gave this passion an environmentally friendly face. In his new greenhouse in Ter Aar, near...

Every blossom is a work of art. With a heat pump, Van der Hoorn Orchids can – in an environmentally friendly system – control down to a precision of one degree the temperature for orchids from the tropic rain forests of Southeast Asia and Taiwan.

The German company Wohlhaupter, makers of precision machining systems, requires heat as well as refrigeration for its production – and for the heating and air conditioning of its shop floors. In 2010 the company replaced its old oil heating system, which had been in service for over 20 years, by a geothermal heat pump. In touch with Wohlhaupter Heat pumps also deliver cooling for air conditioning A total of 44 geothermal probes have been installed at the Wohlhaupter company site, which is ­ocated on the edge of the Swabian Alb mountains in southwest Germany. l These sensors contain a...

The source of heat, for example, can be water; without a heat pump, quotas for CO2 and other greenhouse the heat in water would not be at a temperature level high enough for practical uses. ­Other gases (as per Kyoto Protocol) systems use extracted air as heat source. Even though its name indicates ­ omes • An aid in achieving European Union thing else, a heat pump can also simultaneously serve as a refrigeration unit. GEA objectives: e.g., to...

The name of our company – GEA Refrigeration Technologies – indicates a focus on the development and manufacture of cooling systems. Our specialists, however, are also well qualified and experienced in work with heat pumps. In fact: heat pumps and refrigeration systems operate on the same physical principles, and key components in both systems include such elements as compressors and heat exchangers. In touch with your needs Our compression heat pumps Compression heat pumps They are the heart and, literally, the pump of the heat pump: piston and screw c ­ ompressors by GEA Refrigeration...

With the necessary big picture, but also with love of detail – this is how GEA Refrigeration Technologies creates its products. They embody the knowledge of generations – expertise in technology and, above all, in its application. After all, your success is our success. And this means that you can place your trust in our technology. Control systems Control systems often remain unnoticed, since their performance cannot be measured in impressive kilowatt ratings. But they can be expressed in intelligence – which ­assures the reliable and efficient operation of a heat pump and helps to find...
