This develops approx. 60 % heat, which we can convert into cold (in summer) or use for heating (in winter) by means of a heat-cold coupling by means of an absorption refrigerating machine. The administration building and the production halls have a ventilation system with a heat exchanger, so that heat is extracted from the exhaust air and supplied to the supply air. The waste heat from the machines from the individual machine cooling units is fed into the heat distribution system in an efficient heat exchanger and reused for cooling via a heat exchanger. About 35% of the energy generated in the CHP unit is converted into electricity, which is consumed directly on site. Translated with www.DeepL.com\/Translator (free version)<\/p>\n<p>  The remaining 5% are losses due to friction, unusable waste heat from attachment units, etc.<\/p>\n<p>By operating the CHP plant, we create constant and pleasant working conditions, as the air is cleaner and the temperature is evenly maintained. These constant working conditions form the basis for our high-precision manufacturing.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3396&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1665558186491{margin-top: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3395&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Photovoltaics<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Our roof areas are equipped with photovoltaics.
