2.2 Operating Principle
Heating
Surrounding air is drawn in by the ventilator and fed via the evap-
orator (heat exchanger). The evaporator cools the air, i.e. it ex-
tracts heat from it. This extracted heat is then transferred to the
working medium (refrigerant) in the evaporator.
The heat is "pumped" to a higher temperature level by increasing
its pressure with the aid of an electrically driven compressor. It is
then transferred to the heating water using the liquifier (heat ex-
changer).
Electrical energy is used to raise the temperature of the heat in
the environment to a higher level. Because the energy extracted
from the air is transferred to the heating water, this type of device
is called an air-to-water heat pump.
The air-to-water heat pump consists of the main components
evaporator, ventilator and expansion valve, as well as the low-
noise compressor, liquifier and electrical control system.
At low ambient temperatures, humidity accumulates on the evap-
orator in the form of frost reducing the transfer of heat. The evap-
orator is defrosted automatically by the heat pump as required.
Steam may be emitted from the air outlet depending on the at-
mospheric conditions.
Cooling
The functions of the evaporator and the liquifier are reversed in
the "Cooling" operating mode.
The heating water transfers its heat to the refrigerant via the liq-
uifier which is now functioning as an evaporator. The refrigerant
is pumped to a higher temperature level using the compressor.
Heat is passed on to the surrounding air via the liquifier (function-
ing as an evaporator in heating operation).
