Figure 1 Typical heat pump installation. Above flow chart shows a general pressure cycle utilizing any
moderate temperature source such as ground water, waste water, exhaust gases, process media, hydraulic
oil, discharge ventilation, air or similar. This is a traditional chiller, but with a high condensing pressure. A good
start but below we show you how it can be improved considerably.

Figure 2 High-pressure heat recovery cycle - the better option. Above flow chart shows how condensing energy from a refrigeration plant is recovered by means of a high pressure c
ycle. Cascade connection
is preferred to benefit the most from the different refrigerants used. Avoiding m
ixing oils between plants using
same refrigerant is obtained by a cascade connection.

Depending on main plant design and
operating conditions, energy may be
recovered from several sources.
No matter which temperature, pressure
or media, Alfa Laval has a complete spectre
of heat exchangers to choose from.

Figure 4 MAIN AND HIGH-PRESSURE CYCLE. Above illustration shows the main cycle on conjunction with the highpressure recovery cycle. Alfa Laval evaporator combined with the U-Turn liquid separator ensures extremely small
temperature loss.
