What Is an Ultra Low Ambient Heat Pump (ULAHP)?

An Ultra Low Ambient Heat Pump (ULAHP) is a high-performance heating system designed to operate efficiently in extremely cold climates — even at temperatures as low as –35°C. Unlike conventional heat pumps that lose capacity or shut down near freezing conditions, a ULAHP continues to extract heat from the frigid outdoor air and deliver stable, reliable heating for industrial, commercial, and residential applications.

Using advanced refrigerant cycles, robust reciprocating compressors, frost-resistant heat exchangers, and intelligent PLC/HMI controls, ULAHPs ensure consistent hot water output (up to 40°C) and dependable performance in high-altitude, cold-desert, and snow-prone regions. This makes them a next-generation solution for energy-efficient, zero-combustion heating in the harshest winter environments.

These systems utilize:

  • High-efficiency reciprocating compressors
  • Advanced thermal or electronic expansion valves
  • Specialized low-temperature refrigerant circuits
  • Intelligent PLC/HMI control logic
  • Durable heat exchangers designed for frost-prone conditions

 

This deep-tech engineering allows ULAHP systems to extract heat even when ambient air appears to contain none.

Trigen DC’s Ultra Low Ambient Heat Pumps are optimized for:

  • Industrial process heating
  • Commercial heating needs
  • Large residential complexes
  • Industrial temperature control in cold deserts and snow-covered regions
  • Applications where conventional heat pumps fail

With capacities extending up to 100 kW and beyond, these systems can be customized for a wide range of environmental, industrial, and residential applications.

Product Overview:
What Are Trigen DC’s Reversible Heat Pumps?

Reversible Heat Pumps (RHP) from Trigen DC are advanced dual-function thermal systems that seamlessly switch between heating and cooling modes depending on process requirements. This integrated system eliminates the need for separate boilers, chillers, or electric heaters—reducing both operational complexity and energy consumption.

These systems are intelligently engineered using high-efficiency screw compressors, advanced thermal/electronic expansion valves, PLC-based controls, and resilient metallurgy to ensure maximum durability even in demanding environments.

Trigen DC’s Reversible Heat Pumps are ideal for industries that require seasonal, daily, or even hour-to-hour switching between heating and cooling—making them one of the most cost-efficient and flexible thermal utilities available today.

Built on years of thermal engineering innovation, Trigen DC’s RHP portfolio offers:

Key Advantages of Trigen DC’s Ultra Low Ambient Heat Pumps

 

Extreme cold typically causes heating equipment to lose capacity and efficiency. But Trigen DC’s ULAHP systems are engineered specifically for ultra-low ambient performance, ensuring:

- Consistent heating output
- Reliable thermal comfort
- High energy efficiency
- Smooth operation regardless of external temperatures.

This capability makes them ideal for industries operating in Himalayan states, high-altitude zones, cold storage regions, and global cold-weather markets.

Trigen DC utilizes optimized refrigerant selection, heat exchanger geometry, and cycle engineering to ensure strong heating performance in freezing temperatures. This advanced thermodynamic design maximizes heat extraction even from extremely cold air.

 

Despite operating in extreme weather, the ULAHP systems maintain a COP (Coefficient of Performance) of up to 2.1, which is significantly higher than:

- Electric resistance heaters
- Diesel-fired heaters
- Oil-fired boilers
- Direct gas heating

This means industries and facilities get more heat output per unit of electricity consumed—leading to major cost savings.

The rated outlet water temperature of 40°C makes ULAHP ideal for:

- Building heating systems
- Radiant floor heating
- Space heating
- Preheating for industrial processes

This versatility supports a wide variety of cold-climate applications.

Equipped with PLC or embedded controllers with HMI, Trigen DC’s ULAHP systems offer:

- Automated defrosting cycles
- Smart temperature optimization
- Real-time system diagnostics
- Parameter visibility and control
- IoT enabled
- Predictive behavior insights

These intuitive controls ensure the system performs optimally regardless of weather fluctuations.

The compressors/heat exchangers and other components use in the construction are internally engineered and designed for rugged operating condition to ensure durability, frost resistance, and long-term performance in harsh environments.

Regions in northern India and globally that depend on:

- Diesel burners
- Electric heaters
- Kerosene heaters
- Firewood heaters

can dramatically reduce energy cost and carbon emissions by switching to Trigen DC's clean, electrified heating systems.

With no combustion, no soot buildup, and no fuel storage, Ultra Low Ambient Heat Pumps deliver:
