AQUACIATTMLD ILD Water chillers Heat pump enviRonmentalResponsibility R-32 The AQUACIATTMcontributes to sustainable development via an environmentally responsible approach, aimed at balancing ecological and economic concerns. This enables it to meet the requirements of future European thermal regulations and to protect our environment for future generations. The impact of an air conditioning system on global warming of the planet is in large part caused by CO2 emissions released into the atmosphere when the electricity required to power the unit is produced (indirect effect) and in small part by CO2 emissions linked to uncontrolled emissions of refrigerant with global warming potential into the atmosphere (direct effect). WithAQUACIAT, it's a win-win situation: its low charge of R-32 refrigerant with low GWP reduces the direct environmentalTM impact by 80% while reducing the indirect environmental impact thanks to its high energy performance. ■ 80% reduction in the direct environmental impact (refrigerant) This performance is the result of the high-quality components used, which have all been rigorously selected: -R-32 refrigerant with low environmental impact (Ozone depletion potential =0, Global warming potential =675) -Aluminium micro-channel coil on LD chiller versions with a 40% reduction in refrigerant charge compared to a conventional coil -New generation of copper tube coil-aluminium fins on ILD heat pump versions with a 30% reduction in refrigerant charge compared to a conventional coil -Asymmetrical brazed-plate heat exchanger (BPHE) with a reduction in the refrigerant charge compared to a shell and tube heat exchanger -Systematic tightness check of units in leak detection cabinets at end of line production Refrigerant GWP Refrigerant Environmental impact (CO2 eq.) charge* (kg) (kg.CO2 eq.) 2088 100 70 2088 675 473 R-410A R-32 R-410A R-32 R-410A R-32 To conclude, the potential direct impact of AQUACIATTMon the environment with R-32 refrigerant is reduced by 80% compared to the previous generation R-410A.
