Raymer FA heat pumps-08 на 27 kW for a large greenhouse

In modern agriculture and greenhouse business, one of the key tasks is to create an optimal and stable microclimate for growing plants. Heating greenhouses is an integral part of this process, especially in the cold season.

In this context, heat pumps represent an innovative and energy-efficient solution, allowing to significantly reduce energy costs while providing the necessary conditions for plants.

Tasks and solutions

Defining tasks

The main objective of the project is to provide efficient and economical heating of a large greenhouse with minimal energy costs. To achieve this goal, it was decided to use two monobloc Raymer FA-08 на 27 kW.

Selection of equipment and solutions

The choice fell on Raymer FA monoblocks-08 for several reasons:

High energy efficiency: Heat pump technology offers significant energy savings. The system energy consumption is only 5.9 kW, which is significantly lower, than traditional heating systems.
Uniform heating: Heat pumps ensure uniform heat distribution throughout the entire greenhouse area, which is extremely important for healthy growth and development of plants.
Ease of maintenance: Raymer FA monoblocks-08 easier to maintain compared to traditional solid fuel boilers, which reduces maintenance costs.
Remote control and configuration: The ability to control the heating system remotely via Wi-Fi allows you to quickly respond to changing weather conditions and plant needs in the greenhouse.

Why is it better to install heat pumps for greenhouses?

1. Estimating the cost of heating greenhouses

The standard approach to estimating the cost of heating greenhouses often leads to an overestimation of needs. Traditional methods, such as gas heating, require not only significant energy costs, but also special operating conditions, such as providing oxygen access to open flames.

2. Calculation of heat demand

An easy way to estimate the heat requirement for a greenhouse is to request data from the manufacturer or use a formula, taking into account the total glass area, temperature difference and heat transfer coefficient. This allows you to accurately determine the required heating power and select the appropriate system.

3. Calculation example for a greenhouse

Let's take a greenhouse in Hannover with glazing area 50 m² and a temperature difference of 25°K (from -15°С outside to +10°С inside). Using heat transfer coefficient 7,6 W/м², we obtain a heating power requirement of approx. 9500 watt. Replacing glass with double corrugated glass and coating with film reduces this need due to a decrease in heat transfer coefficient.

4. Advantages of heat pumps

Heat pumps offer a solution, significantly reducing energy consumption for heating greenhouses:

energy efficiency: Heat pumps use energy from the environment, which significantly reduces energy consumption compared to traditional heating systems.
Stability of conditions: They provide uniform heating throughout the entire greenhouse area, creating optimal conditions for plant growth at any time of the year.
Ease of management: Modern heat pumps are equipped with remote control and configuration functions via Wi-Fi, which allows you to quickly adjust heating parameters in accordance with weather changes and plant needs.

5. Saving resources

Replacing traditional glass with double corrugated glass and using special film further reduces the energy requirement for heating greenhouses.

Heat pumps maximize these savings, converting every watt of electricity expended into multiple amounts of heat to heat the greenhouse.

Benefit for the client

The client receives a number of significant benefits from using heat pumps Raymer FA-08 for heating a greenhouse:

Reduced energy costs: Savings are achieved through high energy efficiency Raymer FA monoblocks-08.
Increasing greenhouse productivity: Uniform heating and a stable microclimate contribute to improved quality and increased yield.
Convenience and ease of operation: Remote control and system configuration via Wi-Fi simplifies the process of monitoring and adapting to weather changes and plant needs.

Technical aspects for installation

Installing heat pumps in a large greenhouse involves several key steps., which require careful planning and execution:

Selection of places

Selecting the optimal location for all-in-one units is critical to ensure efficient air traffic and accessibility for service.. Consideration of external factors, such as possible shading and protection from extreme weather conditions, is also important.

Connection to the greenhouse heating system

Integrating heat pumps with an existing or new greenhouse heating system requires careful design. It is necessary to ensure uniform heat distribution over the entire area, which may require the installation of additional fans or thermal curtains.

Control system

Setting up a control system and remote monitoring via Wi-Fi allows you to optimize the operation of heat pumps in accordance with the current needs of the greenhouse. This includes temperature control, humidity and other microclimate parameters.

Usage heat pumps Raymer FA-08 for heating large greenhouses is a highly efficient, economical and environmentally sustainable solution. It not only provides significant energy savings and increased productivity, but also helps create a healthy and controlled environment for plant growth.

The introduction of this technology opens up new horizons for the greenhouse business, making it more resilient to fluctuations in energy prices and climate change. Customer reviews confirm the high appreciation of this solution and its contribution to the development of modern agriculture.
