Clivet polyvalent heat pump on R513A

ITALY: The ScrewLine4-i (WiDHN-KSL1 PL) series is Clivet’s new water-cooled polyvalent heat pump for indoor installation, with R513A refrigerant and inverter screw compressors.

The WiDHN-KSL1 PL is described as the ideal solution to meet the simultaneous needs of hot and chilled water in four-pipe systems.

It is available in an EXC version which offers high efficiency in all operating modes – SEER up to 7.85 and SCOP up to 4.67 – with a capacity range from 440kW up to 945kW.

Employing inverter dual-rotor screw compressors and two circuits, the WiDHN-KSL1 PL also offers two acoustic levels: standard ST version, with dB(A) from 97 to 101, and a super-silenced version (EN) with its integral acoustic enclosure reducing the noise level by a further 18dB(A).

Capacity modulation is available from 100% to 20%. Hot water production is up to +55°C and cold water production up to +4°C.
