Katherm HK E

It’s unique! The hygiene of Katherm HK units conforms to VDI 6022. Katherm HK can be cleaned simply and easily, thanks to its well thought-out design in accordance with the requirements of the Hygiene Directive VDI 6022. Katherm HK units are hygienically flawless, thanks to the removable condensate tray for complete cleaning and reliable discharge of condensate in cooling mode.

Electric heating with a continuously variably controllable electric heating coil is possible in addition to water-based heating and cooling with the 2-pipe Katherm HK E version with an integrated electric heating coil. Compared to a pure 2-pipe system, the room user has the option of individually determining their room climate independently of the heating or cooling system setting. The use of Katherm HK E offers benefits compared to a traditional 4-pipe system, which also have a positive impact on the sustainability rating of a building.

The Katherm HK E, at the cost of a 2-pipe unit, provides considerable savings compared to a traditional 4-pipe system in terms of the entire pipework within the floors and riser pipes, including the distribution pipes, connection piping, fittings and valves. The unit therefore conserves raw materials, material costs as well as installation and commissioning costs. With massively reduced CO₂emissions along the value chain, the use of the Katherm HK E has a positive impact on the carbon footprint of a building.

The Katherm HK is equipped with intelligent KaControl room automation. It is factory-fitted and can be used for KaControl networks or for building automation systems, such as KNX, modbus or CANbus, and meets the requirements of the most modern building automation systems.

The arrangement and air guidance have both been optimised on the Katherm HK and guarantee maximum comfort levels in all rooms.The unit is enhanced with air flow-optimised roll-up and linear grilles.

We have the right grille and the right frame trim for every installation situation – even incorporating curves, angles and slopes.

We also supply decorative wooden grilles in addition to our metallic Optiline grilles made of aluminium, brass and stainless steel.

We look at the environmental impact of our products over the entire life cycle – “cradle to cradle”! This results in Environmental Product Declarations (EPD). EPDs can be easily submitted for all common building sustainability certification systems, such as DGNB, BREEAM or LEED, and are available in the Download area. In addition, the product is registered in the building products platform DGNB Navigator.
