At Chillventa 2024, to be held from 8 to 10 October in Nuremberg, CAREL will be presenting its latest technologies developed for the HVAC sector, with a strong focus on energy efficiency and natural refrigerants to meet the industry’s regulatory requirements and environmental goals.
The coming into force of the new F-GAS regulations, together with European and global decarbonization targets, make the use of low GWP refrigerants such as propane essential.
industrial heat pumps
CAREL offers complete solutions for residential and industrial heat pumps
In response to these challenges, CAREL offers complete solutions for residential and industrial heat pumps, with components designed to optimize the use of these refrigerants, thus improving energy efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
One of CAREL’s main strengths is its ability to develop advanced “A3 ready” solutions, which guarantee both safety and high performance even in applications that use flammable refrigerants, simplifying both production and certification of the units for manufacturers.
High precision and reliability
The new products to be presented at Chillventa include the three-phase inverter with an integrated active filter, which improves the performance of variable-speed compressors, as well as the hermetic electronic expansion valve, designed to manage refrigerant temperatures up to 100°C.
This technology guarantees high precision and reliability in all operating conditions, responding to the latest, stricter EMC regulations.
Software development tool for managing heat pumps
STone smart control functions for residential hydronic circuits while helping to optimize energy
Another focal point of CAREL’s offering is the STone development tool, the perfect solution for the latest software development needs, with features that combine quality and efficiency.
The applications covered include heat pumps: STone provides smart control functions for residential hydronic circuits while helping to optimize the energy performance of the components.
STone Simula and STone Virtual Loop
Moreover, STone Simula and STone Virtual Loop can be used to simulate unit operation in a virtual environment, allowing different HVAC/R unit configurations to be tested in advance.
This reduces the risk of errors and makes development and implementation much faster, facilitating the adoption of the latest technologies by the market.
Residential and commercial ventilation
In the field of ventilation, CAREL offers innovative solutions to improve indoor air quality
In the field of ventilation, CAREL offers innovative solutions to improve indoor air quality, while at the same time ensuring low energy consumption. Heat recovery systems are designed to optimize energy balance and improve sustainability. The main solutions to be highlighted at the show include µAria, for the management of residential and commercial ventilation.
This allows complete control using the CAREL Applica app, accessible via NFC and Bluetooth®. For more complex applications, k.AIR provides modular solutions for the control of air handling units, with advanced pressurization management and HEPA filter monitoring functions to ensure air quality in critical environments.
High-efficiency humidification solutions
Regarding humidification, CAREL’s HygroMatik product line - a group company since 2018 - includes the FlexLine range of steam humidifiers designed to guarantee long life and limited maintenance in commercial and industrial applications.
With both adiabatic and isothermal humidification solutions, CAREL provides a complete range of humidity control solutions, in compliance with European hygiene standards, for all sectors that require air temperature-humidity without compromising on environmental sustainability.
Technology on stage at the CAREL stand
Led by CAREL experts, the panels include question-and-answer sessions to clarify any doubts
During the event, CAREL will also host a series of “Technology on Stage” panels, during which visitors will be able to delve deeper into the digital and software aspects of the solutions exhibited.
These meetings include a presentation of the STone software development environment with advanced new features, providing a detailed overview of how these technologies can simplify the management and optimization of HVAC systems, reducing development times and improving operational efficiency. Led by CAREL experts, the panels will also include question-and-answer sessions to clarify any doubts.
Efficiency of HVAC systems
“Our solutions have been developed to respond to the most urgent energy challenges. With advanced technologies that integrate the control of heat pumps, ventilation and humidification, we can improve the efficiency of HVAC systems and reduce energy consumption, making a substantial contribution to meeting sustainability objectives,” commented Andrea Pagan, CAREL Regional Marketing Manager HVAC – EMEA.
“We strongly believe that digital innovation, combined with the adoption of natural refrigerants, is the key to pioneering the HVAC industry into a more sustainable future.”
