The Danfoss Heat Recovery Module helps to eliminate the technical challenges of managing heat recovery in DC. The HRM is an integrated modular solution for heat recovery from the Data center cooling system. Recovered heat can be sold to district heating grids or industrial heat of takers in nearby area.
The HRM is packed with Danfoss Universal programmable controller - Alsmart® . It controls heat recovery process and monitor all operating parameters of the unit. Unit offers possibilities for external communication with Ethernet or serial communication using Modbus or BACnet protocols. Connecting units to the BMS ensure remote controlling, monitoring and alarming functionalities from the substation.
The HRM is designed as standalone containerized heat transfer station and it is delivered in one piece, with possibility to add additional modules connected in parallel. Enclosure is in size of the 40ft High Cube container which allows the HRM to be transported without any special permits. Sondex gasket plate heat exchanger increase substation performance and lifetime. Standard unit layout allows to prepare connection piping before unit is delivered. Piping prepared with automatic welding machines ensure highest possible welding quality.
The HRM is environmentally friendly, and it significantly reduce Data center CO2 emissions. Export of the excess heat can also reduce operational cost of the data center by reducing need for usage of the cooling system. Cooling power need is limited to supply pumps, driven by recovered heat. Depend on the operational model Data center can gain additional source of income as heating provider.
The HRM is produced based on a 3D model prepared by our design department. All components for example: heat exchangers, control valves, pumps and measuring equipment are virtually connected with piping. Based on 3D-drawings pipes are cut and welded with support of automated machines ensuring supreme quality and short delivery time. Units are designed as modular constructions, which makes transportation and assembly easier. HRM includes an electrical wired panel, which is functionally tested and ready to use after connecting power supply on site.
Danfoss substation is a complete product: designed, produced and tested – ready for use. Danfoss has more than 40 years of experience in production of Heat Transfer Stations, which guarantees great functionality.
The HRM significantly reduce Data Center CO2 emissions and operational cost.
The prefabricated substations reduce time needed for heat recovery implementation in the design.
Easy installation, commissioning and monitoring via protocols like Modbus and BACnet.
All Danfoss products are manufactured according PED 2014/68/ EU and is compliant to ISO9001/ISO14001/ IATF 16949 automotive.
