X-RCAM+ R290 MED – New !

Air treatment Heat pump 100% fresh air

The X-RCAM+ R290 MED is a double-flow heat pump with a plate heat exchanger for hygienic fresh air treatment in healthcare facilities.

It is designed to deliver hygienic fresh air at a neutral temperature, in compliance with the regulations applicable to public-access buildings (ERP), and is specifically tailored to the requirements of healthcare facilities, including hospitals, clinics and long-term care homes.
Regulation is based on the supply air temperature.

Thanks to the various innovations and materials used, the X-RCAM+ R290 MED combines performance, reliability, air quality and respect for the environment.

Complies with the requirements of standard NF S 90‑351:

  • Adjustable fresh‑air supply and extract airflow rates to achieve the required pressure levels.
  • Air filtration ISO ePM10 50% (M5) + ISO ePM1 50% (F7) minimum
  • Chequer‑plate aluminium condensate drip tray with stainless‑steel drain.
  • Air velocity across the evaporator coil: minimum 2.5 m/s.
  • Supply airstream maintained at positive pressure to prevent any return air from entering the fresh‑air stream within the heat‑recovery exchanger.

Performance (according to EN 14511 standard)

Flow range: 3 000 – 15 000 m3/h

Cooling capacity range: 10 – 47 kW

Description

This double flow rooftop heat pump is delivered ready to operate. A separate technical compartment facilitates unit control and maintenance and allows measurement and adjustment during operation.

The EU Regulation 2024/573 (also known as F-Gas III) mandates a gradual phase-out of fluorinated greenhouse gases, culminating in a complete ban by 2050.
As a result, the installation of new rooftops using refrigerants with a GWP greater than 150 will be prohibited:
* From 2027 for capacities ≤ 50 kW

* From 2030 for capacities > 50 kW

In anticipation of these regulatory changes, ETT has adapted its X-RCAM+ R290 MED range to use a refrigerant with an extremely low GWP.

X-RCAM+ R290 MED is a dual-flow heat pump with double energy recovery from the exhaust air, using propane as the refrigerant. This natural, non-fluorinated refrigerant with an almost zero GWP (0.02) makes it a forward-looking technology in the thermodynamic dual-flow dehumidification segment, completely insulated from the impending regulatory changes.

Thanks to its full aluminium structure (frame & casing) that ensures an excellent corrosion protection, this air conditioning system with energy recovery is covered by a 20-year guarantee against corrosion (frame and casing).

Energy recovery from exhaust air in winter and summer is carried out via a heat exchanger (PHE). The setpoint temperature can be maintained thanks to this recovery and, to the heat pump reversible cycle if required.

Backed by a standard 1-year warranty, this Rooftop unit comes with the full range of ETT services: Commissioning, Audits, Service contracts etc.
