Altecnic Launch New High Efficiency Deaerator For Heat Pumps – CALEFFI Hed® 5516 Series

Boosting heat pump systems with leading air removal technology.

Altecnic Ltd, the UK’s leading supplier of hydronic solutions and part of the Caleffi Group, is excited to announce the release of the HED® 5516 Series High-Efficiency Deaerator. Specifically designed to enhance and protect heat pump systems, the HED® 5516 Series removes up to 99% of air from the thermal medium on its first pass, ensuring optimal system performance. By eliminating air, the unit reduces noise, corrosion, localised overheating, and potential mechanical damage, delivering smoother and more reliable heating and cooling.

Unique Design

The HED® 5516 Series’ unique design enhances air separation, guiding micro-bubbles into a calm zone for effective expulsion, reducing noise and corrosion while improving heat transfer to enhance the performance and longevity of heat pump systems.

The hygroscopic safety cap featured in the HED® 5516 Series seals to prevent leaks and ensures system protection.

Constructed from high-performance composite materials, the HED® 5516 Series is built to withstand the demanding conditions of heating and cooling systems. Its crack-resistant, abrasion-resistant design ensures long-term durability while minimizing the risk of material permeability. Furthermore, it is fully compatible with glycols and additives used in various heating and cooling circuits, making it a versatile solution for modern systems.

System Integration

The HED® 5516 Series is designed for easy integration into a wide range of system configurations, offering flexibility to suit horizontal, vertical, or angled pipe layouts. Its adaptability simplifies installation and reduces setup time, while maintaining the highest standards of efficiency and air separation.

Gary Perry, Managing Director at Altecnic, commented, “We are excited to introduce the HED® 5516 Series to the market, which represents a significant step forward in heat pump technology. This product not only ensures systems run at their best but also helps to reduce long-term maintenance and operational costs. At Altecnic, we’re committed to providing innovative, energy-efficient solutions, and the HED® 5516 Series is a perfect example of that.”
