Description
Heat Pump Training Stand – Technical Overview
The heat pump training stand is an advanced educational tool designed to demonstrate the principles of heat pump systems, hydraulic connections, commissioning, and operational adjustments. It provides a hands-on environment for simulating real-world operating conditions, measuring key parameters, and analysing both energy consumption and system efficiency.
Key Features:
Robust Construction: Built from a modular aluminium profile system, the stand includes industrial wheels with brakes for mobility and pipe brackets with rubber damping for vibration control.
Core Components:
Heat Pump Unit: A premium ground/water heat pump capable of heating, cooling, and hot water production, complete with a digital controller and mounted on an aluminium frame with information panels.
Hydraulic System: Equipped with membrane expansion vessels, pressure protection devices, copper piping, and precision valves for reliable operation.
Additional Elements: Includes water tanks for system supply/return and a fully plumbed network.
Electrical Installation: Features a 400V 3-phase connection with automated protections, durable industrial cabling, and ergonomically designed controls with robust environmental protection.
Design Highlights: Ergonomic layout for easy access to measuring devices and servicing points, with a focus on durability and leak prevention.
Training Capabilities:
Heat pump operation cycles and parameter monitoring.
Hydraulic system configuration and valve management.
Energy consumption evaluation, including COP calculations.
Fault diagnosis with simulated errors and troubleshooting exercises.
Control automation practices, including programming and safety verification.
System design principles, piping layout, and thermal loss analysis.
