Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive information on NUOS heat pump water heaters, focusing on their energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, and flexible programming features. It also includes application stories demonstrating their practical benefits.
Working Principle: NUOS heat pump water heaters operate by using a refrigerant fluid to absorb heat from the air, which is then compressed to increase temperature. This heat is transferred to water in the condenser, and the refrigerant returns to its original state through an expansion valve.
Key Features:
  • Flexible Programming: Allows users to set two water draw-off times for automatic temperature control.
  • Anti-Legionella Function: Regularly heats water to 65°C for hygiene and safety.
  • Operating Modes: Includes GREEN mode for efficiency, AUTO mode for energy saving, and BOOST mode for rapid heating.
Cost Efficiency: A cost comparison chart shows NUOS as a cost-effective solution for heating 200 liters of water daily compared to other energy sources.
Application Stories:
  • Shaftesbury, Dorset: Installation in a terraced house with solar PV integration, highlighting ease of installation and energy efficiency.
  • Dumbarton, The Glencairn: Installation in a pub, resulting in significant energy savings and improved water delivery.

NUOS, a philosophy of energy and total peace of mind Expansion valve Refrigerant fluid HEAT TRANSFER Refrigerant fluid ELECTRICAL ENERGY Working Principle 1 - The refrigerant fluid crosses the evaporator and absorbs the heat from the air drawn in by the fan. This process ensures that the refrigerant changes phase by evaporating. 2 - The compressor increases the pressure of the refrigerant gas which causes it to increase in temperature. 3 - Inside the condenser, the refrigerant gas passes its heat to the water contained inside the cylinder. This exchange process ensures that the refrigerant begins...

FLEXIBLE PROGRAMMING If GREEN mode is selected, only the heat pump works, ensuring the most efficient operation. ANTI-LEGIONELLA FUNCTION If BOOST mode is activated, the heat pump and heating element work at the same time. This mode has to be manually selected by the end user every time hot water is required in as short a time as possible. With the NUOS heat pump water heater, it is possible to set two water draw off times. By monitoring both the stored water and the ambient air temperatures NUOS will start automatically to ensure that the stored water reaches the desired temperature at the time...
