NEW PRODUCTS COOLING DISTRIBUTION UNIT


Liquid cooling unit for high density data


AIR CONDITIONING Easier installation and greater efficiency


The ZT Series is MHIAE’s next- generation residential air conditioning range that replaces the existing ZS Series. The ZT range has been reworked to improve energy efficiency, simplify installation and servicing, and reduce operational noise. The indoor units incorporate a newly designed heat exchanger, a high- efficiency fan motor, and an enlarged fan blower diameter, achieving better airflow to deliver a long reach of up to 11m. In addition, the ZT Series offers two silent operation modes – Silent and Ultra Silent. In Ultra Silent mode, sound levels are reduced by up to 9dB achieving noise levels as low as 36 dB(A) while still maintaining the unit’s powerful performance. Achieving higher SEER and SCOP ratings than the ZS range, the ZT units


are said to set a new benchmark for energy efficiency and environmental sustainability, ensuring users benefit from reduced energy costs and a lower carbon footprint. The ZT also maintains efficient operation at nominal heating capacity even when outdoor temperatures fall to -10 °C. A major enhancement for the ZT Series is its expanded energy-tracking capability. The app now provides detailed energy-use graphs, showing power consumption, efficiency, heating and cooling capacity, outdoor temperature and setpoint indoor temperatures. These insights provide users a clear understanding of their system’s performance and energy consumption throughout the day,


month or year. ■ mhiae.com


CARRIER has introduced a new Coolant Distribution Unit designed to support the growing use of liquid cooling in UK data centres. The unit is manufactured by Carrier and forms part of the company’s QuantumLeap data centre solutions portfolio. It is designed to help operators manage higher rack densities while improving control over energy use, resilience and space utilisation. The Coolant Distribution Unit is designed to manage secondary coolant loops used in liquid-cooled IT systems. Its control system enables precise regulation of flow rates and temperatures, to reduce pumping energy and maintain stable thermal conditions across varying load profiles. The unit uses modular heat exchangers capable of achieving approach temperatures as low as 2°C, compared with more typical levels of around 4°C. Reliability features include redundant pumps and power supplies to support continuous operation during maintenance or fault conditions. The unit is intended for use in mission-critical environments where uninterrupted cooling is required. Integration into


existing data centres is designed to be straightforward, allowing liquid cooling to be added with limited disruption. The product range covers capacities


from 1.3 MW to 5 MW, enabling deployment in both current and future high-density applications. The system is compatible with different liquid cooling configurations and can be monitored through Carrier’s controls platform for centralised oversight and performance

HEAT PUMP BATTERY STORAGE


Cyber-secure large-scale battery system


TESVOLT, a provider of battery storage systems, project development and energy trading services, has launched a new 5 MWh Tallon storage container. The large-scale battery system increases the cybersecurity of battery parks and co-location storage projects through a


proprietary battery park control system and European inverters. Municipal utilities benefit from a one-stop shop: from planning and installation to operation, monitoring, services and power trading – all from a single provider. “Today, many battery containers hardly


differ from one another, and almost all of them come from Asia. We also source them there, selecting robust, high-performance systems – but then we do something differently from many others: we integrate our own battery park control system, which provides significantly higher protection against cyber attacks,” explains Simon


EIBI | FEBRUARY 2026


Schandert, CTO and co-founder of Tesvolt. “This control system incorporates several years of experience gained from numerous battery park projects.” All data connections of the Tesvolt


Energy Controller EZA pro L to the internet, for example, are exclusively routed via dedicated VPN tunnels to prevent external manipulation. In addition, outbound data connections are designed as one-way links only, and the plant controller is protected against direct internet access by dedicated hardware. Thanks to its modular concept, the


Tallon storage container provides greater flexibility in planning, operation and later


expansion of storage systems. ■ www.tesvolt-projects.com


Modular heat pump for large buildings


The Amicus Altus 112 is LOCHINVAR’s new addition to its Amicus Altus range of air-to-water


heat pumps. Designed specifically for large-scale commercial heating, cooling and hot water applications, the Amicus Altus 112 is said to deliver ‘outstanding’ performance, flexibility,


and sustainability for projects where reliability and efficiency are critical. Delivering outputs from 112kW up


to 1,120kW per cascade, and capable of achieving water flow temperatures of up to 75 °C, this heat pump is suited to applications such as healthcare facilities, sports and leisure centres, hotels, and renovation projects. Its modular design allows systems to be precisely sized to meet project requirements, whether for new-build or retrofit installations. Using R290 (propane), a natural


refrigerant with an exceptionally low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 3, this product is a sustainable solution for decarbonising heat without


compromising on performance or operating temperatures. As a fully electric system, the Amicus Altus 112 produces zero on- site emissions. When combined with renewable electricity or photovoltaic systems, it enables completely carbon- free operation, supporting long-term sustainability and net-zero objectives. Available in 2-pipe or 4-pipe


configurations, the system includes flow and return header arrangements and a primary pump per unit, simplifying


installation and system design. ■ lochinvar.ltd.uk
