Samsung R32 heating and cooling chiller

NETHERLANDS: Samsung has launched the HVM R32 modular chiller using R32 refrigerant for smaller commercial refurbishments.

The HVM R32 is available in 15hp and 20hp sizes with heating and cooling outputs of 42kW and 56kW. 

Designed with consultants in mind, the HVM R32 is described as compact, with its footprint of 1.38m², and easy-to-install. Relatively lightweight (433kg), its compact nature is designed to help overcome challenges associated with smaller roof tops and plant room footprints.

The integration of flash injection technology enables effective heating in outdoor temperatures as low as -25°C.

The system can control one or more outdoor units to provide cooling and heating across different zones in smaller commercial environments. It can also be connected to a wide range of indoor Samsung units including its WindFree 4-way cassette, 360 cassette and concealed options.
