Viessmann Climate Solutions UK has launched a new air source heat pump designed for residential developments, small- to mid-scale commercial, and public sector applications.
The compact and robust Vitocal 200-A Pro is available in 32, 64, and 128 kW outputs and can be cascaded up to 1024 kW for a wide range of applications. All models provide both heating and active cooling within a single appliance and can be operated in bi- or monovalent modes.
EVI technology
Boasting highly efficient scroll compressors and enhanced vapor injection (EVI) technology, the Vitocal 200-A Pro offers an impressively high flow temperature of 65°C at −7°C. This makes it ideal for modernization projects where integration with existing systems is required.
The units have a Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP) of 4.4, and use the refrigerant R407C, which is non-flammable. This means units can be placed anywhere, including under windows or next to drains. Vibration decoupling also ensures the Vitocal 200-A Pro is exceptionally quiet in operation; at A7/W35 (outside air temperature 7°C and DHW 35°C), the total sound power level is 69.7−71.6 dB(A).
Remote monitoring and control system
Installation is faster, thanks to factory-installed operating and safety devices
Installation is faster, thanks to factory-installed operating and safety devices, while the feature-rich weather-compensated remote monitoring and control system, combined with a single refrigeration circuit across all models, mean operation and maintenance are greatly simplified, too.
“This is a very user-friendly heat pump,” said Viessmann Product Manager, Hugh Jones, adding “It’s particularly well-suited to urban environments where space is at a premium, thanks to its low noise levels, compact size, and incombustible refrigerant. You only need to see the unit to appreciate how sturdy and durable it is."
Viessmann’s pre-sales and service package
Hugh Jones continues: "We’re anticipating strong sales, particularly from organizations such as schools and housing associations that need a system that’s efficient, reliable, and easy to operate and maintain, coupled with Viessmann’s pre-sales and service package, including specification, commissioning and maintenance support.”
The launch of the Vitocal 200-A Pro means installers can now offer their commercial clients a fully integrated package of high-quality HVAC, power-generating, and system-management products from Viessmann that are designed to work together seamlessly. Free training courses are available through the Viessmann Academy.
