Features

What is GHP?

The Panasonic Gas Heat Pump (GHP) VRF System is a direct expansion system with the same compressor as an electric VRF system. A gas engine is used as the driving source for the compressor instead of an electric motor.

Cost Reductions through Use of a Gas Engine

Significantly Reduced Power Consumption

GHP systems do not use any electricity other than that for driving fans or other auxiliary devices, so their power consumption is very low compared to EHP systems. Of course, ordinary power consumption is also reduced.

Significant Cuts in Power-Receiving Equipment Costs

As GHP systems consume less power than EHP systems, they can significantly cut power-receiving equipment repair costs and be installed with minimal investment. They can also be used for air conditioning in non-electric areas.

Waste Heat from Gas Engines can be Used for Domestic Hot Water (DHW)

The rejected heat from the engine is available for DHW production and can supply up to 46 kW of hot water at 65°C. DHW at 65°C is also ready to use without additional electric heaters.

Environmentally Friendly

Low Environmental Impact

EHP VRF systems that run on electricity can lose up to approx. 60% of power during generation and transmission. On the other hand, Panasonic GHP VRF systems run on gas, which means there is no energy loss during transmission. As a result, compared to EHP systems, Panasonic GHP VRF systems can significantly reduce environmental load.

Low CO₂ Emissions

Panasonic GHP VRF systems run on natural gas, the energy source which generates the lowest amount of CO₂ when combusted. Further, as these systems do not generate large amounts of CO₂ from electricity generation at thermal power plants like EHP VRF systems do, they can drastically reduce CO₂ emissions.

Low NOx Emissions

The GHP VRF systems have the lowest nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. In a pioneering development, the Panasonic GHP features a brand-new lean-burn combustion system that utilizes air fuel ratio feedback control to reduce NOx emissions to an all time low.

Up to 64 Indoor Units can be Connected

Up to 64 indoor units can be connected, allowing for flexible system design to meet your business requirements.

*Maximum number of indoor units depends on outdoor unit capacity.
