GAHP A Gas Absorption Heat Pump

Judge’s Remarks:

“The GAHP A Gas Heat Pump is an innovative design and one of the first of its kind. The judges appreciate the highly efficient gas heat pump technology and see this product as an important decarbonization bridge solution.”


Description:

The Robur GAHP-A is an ultra-efficient air source gas-fired heat pump, utilizing a water-ammonia absorption cycle.

With a gas efficiency at rated conditions of 129% this unit is perfect for integrated systems boosting the plant efficiency of traditional boiler systems. Compared to condensing boiler systems the Robur units can increase the average building heating efficiencies by approximately 40%.

The GAHP-A can heat water up to 140 °F, with stable operation down to -20 °F and up to 113 °F.

The cycle of the operation is driven by thermal energy provided by a gas burner. Therefore, the required electric energy is reduced by 87% compared to electric compressor units. The GAHP-A is fed by natural gas or LPG and supplied with 208-230 V – 60 Hz Single Phase electrical power. A viable solution in limited electric applications.

The modular design allows for greater heating capacity and built-in redundancy.  Highly reliable due to fewer moving parts which helps ensure the longevity of the system.  And minimal maintenance requirements allow for low life cycle costs.

Robur units utilize a natural refrigerant making it a green product having zero Ozone Depletion Potential and zero Global Warming Potential.  With the bonus of having no phase out date.

The ability to use gas to decarbonize and reduce emissions allows the Robur GAHP A to meet the energy goals of tomorrow with a product available today.
