International. Carrier announced the launch of the new line of heat recovery and heat pump systems, variable refrigerant flow (VRF). The new system offers a modular design and the industry's most compact 20-ton heat recovery unit, thereby seeking to save space.
These new products will offer a tonnage range of up to 36 tons for heat pump systems, up to 28 tons for heat recovery systems and multiple styles of indoor units with a variety of control offerings.
The heat pump is a modular design available as single, double and triple modules while the heat recovery system is a single cabinet design with small, medium and large cabinet offerings. The systems are equipped with direct-drive, inverter-driven asymmetrical scroll compressors with backup capability available on some tonnage-based models.
"Our 20-ton heat recovery system has a footprint of nearly 30 percent smaller compared to the competition, which saves space and reduces structural design costs for our customers," says Meredith Emmerich, managing director of Carrier, Ductless & VRF "The VRF industry is an essential focus for Carrier and our latest product innovation is evidence of our commitment to growing the product line and providing our customers with the products they need for today's demanding building environments."
This product was initially presented during the last AHR Expo in Las Vegas.
