Growing demand for training in heat pump technology

One of the greatest challenges of our time is climate change and the resulting climate crisis. Renewable and alternative energies are playing an increasingly important role in new heating systems. Heat pumps are considered the key technology for heating residential buildings.

In order to successfully implement heat pumps, more skilled workers are needed to competently plan, install and maintain heat pump systems. To provide sound training for heat pump specialists, action-oriented training concepts are needed to impart the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge and skills. With our teaching systems and training stands, as well as the accompanying didactic materials, this knowledge can be explained and conveyed in a practical and clear manner in training and further education.

Making the right choice

All Christiani heat pump training systems are developed by experienced heat pump technology experts working together with vocational educators and are continuously adapted to the latest technology and training requirements.

Independent ‘stand-alone’ teaching systems

Here we offer the compact heat pump model and the mobile floor-standing heat pump model. Both teaching systems can be operated without additional accessories.

Modular teaching system for heat pumps, optionally
with solar thermal energy and PV

The modular heat pump teaching system comprises a total of six mobile training stations. Different combinations of the training stations can be used to set up and experimentally test various heat pump system concepts.

The training stations are mobile, mounted on lockable castors, and can be combined in different ways depending on the learning objective.

Features of the teaching system

  • Mobile training stands
  • Modular combination options, depending on the learning content to be taught
  • Original components for maximum practical relevance
  • Detailed didactic experiment instructions

Learning objectives of the teaching system

The various combinations of training stations enable numerous other learning objectives to be achieved in relation to the interaction of heat pumps with solar thermal energy and hybrid collectors.

  • Understanding the operating principle of a heat pump
  • Familiarization with the key components of a heat pump and their function
  • Knowledge of the terminology and operating equipment of heat pump systems
  • Understanding of the technical system requirements of heat pump heating systems
  • Knowledge of the operating conditions of a heat pump heating system
  • Competence in measuring and evaluating the processes in heat pump systems
  • Knowledge of the physical processes in the refrigeration circuit of a heat pump
