Clivet has developed a high efficiency packaged unit, the Zephir2, which provides filtered fresh air while simultaneously extracting energy from the exhaust air. The system ensures that full air renewal and purification are achieved at maximum efficiency.
The unit is available with electronic high efficiency filters effective against smoke, fine dust particles, viruses, and bacteria. Available to cater for air flows ranging from 4,500 to 16,000m3/h, the Zephir2 uses a thermodynamic circuit to recover energy contained in the exhaust air flow, and transfers it to the conditioned area using heat pump technology, without introducing the high pressure drops associated with cross-flow heat exchangers in “traditional” systems. It also eliminates the external fresh air load, thus providing additional capacity to maintain the comfort of the conditioned space. The heating or cooling energy produced reduces the power requirement of additional air-conditioning systems, in turn reducing costs.
