In addition to a next generation Altherma 4, Daikin Europe is set to launch new heat pumps running on lower GWP refrigerant R454C and propane (R290).

Daikin has supplied a further eight water-cooled chillers to the CERN nuclear research facility for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider which is due to be operational from 2029.

Daikin has recently been involved in the commissioning of three water-cooled R1234ze chiller units at CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research and home of the Large Hadron Collider.

A new Daikin refrigerant announced last year as a more efficient alternative to R1234yf in electric vehicles has been designated as R474A by ASHRAE and given an A2L classification.

Daikin has extended its DWSC centrifugal chiller series with the addition of models using the low GWP refrigerant R1234ze.

Daikin hopes to introduce a low GWP refrigerant replacement for the current R32 in air conditioners in 2023.

Daikin has announced an extension to its DZ oil-free centrifugal chiller portfolio, with the introduction of three new compressors in larger sizes.

Daikin has enlarged its oil-free centrifugal chiller range with new increased capacity water-cooled machines running with R134a and R-1234ze(E) refrigerants.

Epta’s FTE transcritical CO₂ refrigeration system has won the innovation award at the German Refrigeration Prize 2018.

Amongst a host of new products expected this year, Daikin has revealed that its Applied division will launch chillers using the HFO refrigerant R1234ze.

More pre-launch details have emerged of Daikin’s proposed new chillers using the low GWP refrigerant R1234ze.
