Overview
Katherm HK trench systems deliver energy-efficient and sound-optimized heating and cooling at all system temperatures, also when operated with low water temperatures and heat pumps. They are suitable for use in all kinds of buildings in which there is a primarily higher cooling load owing to internal loads and the effects of sunlight due to large areas of glazing.
There are four trench widths to choose from (245/290/320/360 mm) and three width-dependent trench heights (130/160/210 mm). Depending on the requirements on site, different product-specific lengths (915-3000 mm) are available for all 2- and 4-pipe output requirements. Various modern room control configurations are also available to meet the requirements of the building.
The units are very often used in acoustically sensitive spaces, as the quietly-running tangential fans are mounted in a sound-decoupled manner by the innovative combined coupling/ball joint system. For maintenance purposes, the fan can be easily removed and reinstalled without tools. This saves significant installation time.
The hygiene of Katherm HK units conforms to VDI 6022. Thanks to their well-thought-out design, they can be thoroughly cleaned with ease in accordance with the requirements of the Hygiene Directive VDI 6022. The condensate tray, which can be pulled out toward the room, enables the tray to be completely cleaned, making the Katherm HK hygienically flawless.
Each Katherm HK unit is equipped with a condensate tray that collects condensate generated in cooling mode and safely drains it out of the trench. Condensate drains along a natural gradient or optionally by a condensate pump supplied separately or factory-fitted.
