When evaluating an industrial heat pump, the first question is what the process actually needs: hot water or steam. The highest available temperature is not automatically the most suitable choice.
Leomon’s product range includes a 90°C hot water series, a 120°C steam series and a 150°C steam series. These options serve different heating requirements and should be assessed against the equipment and operating conditions at the site.
Start with the Existing Heating Process
Check how heat reaches the process today. Does the equipment circulate hot water through a heating circuit, or does it receive steam through a steam connection?
For a hot water application, useful information includes the required supply and return temperatures, water flow and operating schedule. For a steam application, the assessment should include steam temperature, working pressure, hourly demand and feedwater conditions.
Temperature alone does not provide enough information to select a system.
Choose the Output Your Equipment Requires
The 90°C series supplies hot water. It should be considered for applications requiring a compatible hot water circuit.
The 120°C and 150°C series supply steam. Selection between them requires a review of the process duty and steam system requirements. A higher-temperature series should not be selected solely because it offers a higher headline temperature.
For an existing installation, confirm the required conditions at the point where the heat pump would connect.
Provide Conditions for a Meaningful Proposal
Before requesting a quotation, prepare:
- The required output: hot water or steam
- Operating temperatures and, for steam, working pressure
- Heating capacity or measured consumption, if available
- Daily operating hours and changes in demand
- Available heat source and seasonal conditions
- Power supply and installation constraints
Leomon reviews these details with customers and project partners before proposing a configuration. Performance and suitability must be confirmed for the selected equipment and operating conditions.
