1.1 Mechanism of CO

heat pump water heater for commercial use
• The CO
heat pump water heater for commercial use is a water hater that is composed of a heat pump unit with natural
refrigerant such as CO
which can produce hot sanitary water with heat pump technology and a hot water storage unit which
can store hot water. A touch panel type remote control applied to this heat pump water heater can control up to units of
heat pump units.
• The way to produce hot water with this heat pump water heater is that the heat energy retrieved from the outdoor air
through the air to refrigerant heat exchanger of heat pump unit heats up the refrigerant and such refrigerant is increased its
temperature and its pressure much higher through the compressor and is transferred to the gas cooler (the refrigerant to water
heat exchanger). In the gas cooler, the refrigerant releases its heat to increase the water temperature and is returned to the air
to refrigerant heat exchanger after depressurized through expansion valve in order to evaporate easily.
On the other hand, the water stored in the hot water storage unit is circulated by the water circulation pump to the heat pump
unit through the connection pipe between the hot water storage unit and the heat pump unit. In the gas cooler, the water
exchanges the heat from the high temperature refrigerant and is heated up to higher temperature. Such hot water is returned
to the hot water storage unit and stored in the hot water storage unit.
The hot water in the hot water storage unit is distributed to the end of hot water supply system for utilizing.
• The power actually consumed is the power supplied to the compressor, fan and water circulation pump only. However the
total energy added to produce hot water is the power actually consumed and the heat retrieved from the outdoor air so that

• It has following advantage.
Hot water at 0
℃
The size of hot water cylinder can be minimized.
The storage of heat can be controlled by adjusting storage water temperature.
The hot water can be used for washing.
