Our climate control system acts as a secondary circuit that provides comfort in the crew compartment, independent of the main air conditioner of the armored vehicle chassis, which only cools the driver and front passenger. It is a fully functional air conditioner with a separate compressor, condenser, evaporator, and control panel.
The system has a cooling capacity of 9 kW and is specifically designed for export to countries with hot climates to ensure crew comfort in extremely high temperatures. For this purpose, an additional high-power evaporator with a separate air duct, specially developed based on the customer’s requirements, is installed in the rear part of the troop compartment. The air conditioning system can create a comfortable microclimate inside the armored vehicle even at ambient temperatures up to +55 °C.
A specially developed and designed climate control system provides cooling and heating of the armored personnel carrier under extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to +55 °C.
The climate control system for the Khorunzhyi armored personnel carrier consists of a Webasto Thermo Pro 50 Eco independent engine pre-heater, a Webasto Air Top Evo 40 independent air heater, as well as TPU evaporators with heating and cooling functions, designed and manufactured according to individual requirements. For integration into the Khorunzhyi armored personnel carrier, the engineers at Thermo Projects Ukraine developed an integrated front HVAC unit with a cooling capacity of 6.2 kW and a heating capacity of 8.5 kW, as well as a rear VAC unit with a cooling capacity of 9 kW.
The proposed solution ensures the required temperature inside the vehicle according to the customer’s specified technical requirements.
An integrated solution for extending the standard air conditioning system for armored vehicles. For a domestic customer, we equipped the “Kozak” series vehicles with an additional evaporator for cooling the troop compartment. According to the technical specification, it was necessary to provide air conditioning for the crew compartment by enhancing the power of the existing air conditioner. The new unit had to be vertical and fit into a 400 mm niche. Thus, to meet the customer’s needs, TPU engineers calculated the required power and developed the new “Kyiv-50” evaporator, which became the ideal universal solution for the entire series of armored vehicles. The evaporator is housed in a metal casing with a system for distributing cooled air.
In addition to the air conditioning system, a heater for preheating the engine is installed, allowing for a quick start without additional wear on the vehicle’s equipment. An autonomous air heater for the cabin is also included. This allows for the effective use of the vehicle in harsh operating conditions, ensuring comfort and reliability regardless of the circumstances.
