One Core. Endless Possibilities. - Solutions for Mobile and Stationary Applications

AKG ThermoCore is more than just a heat exchanger – it’s a compact, all-in-one thermal solution designed to transform the way heat pumps work. Whether in buildings with the ThermoCore ECO or in vehicles with the ThermoCore Motion, this intelligent system brings together seven essential components into one integrated unit.
By combining efficiency, space-saving design, and robust performance, ThermoCore simplifies installation, reduces potential leak points, and delivers reliable thermal management – even under the most demanding conditions.
Discover how AKG ThermoCore redefines what's possible in both stationary and mobile applications.

AKG ThermoCore Motion

The AKG ThermoCore Motion is an innovative, patent-protected solution designed specifically for vehicle air conditioning heat pumps. This cutting-edge system integrates seven essential components—evaporator, condenser, expansion valve, receiver, filter, dryer, and internal heat exchanger—into one compact and highly efficient unit.

At its core, the multifunctional refrigerant unit combines multiple functions in a single, space-saving component. Made entirely of aluminum and soldered as a single piece, the ThermoCore Motion offers maximum durability and performance.

AKG ThermoCore ECO for Ground-Source Heat Pumps in Buildings

The AKG ThermoCore ECO is a new, patented solution specifically developed for use in ground-source heat pumps for building climate control. 

This innovative system integrates seven components (evaporator, condenser, expansion valve, receiver, filter, dryer, and internal heat exchanger) into a single compact unit. The condenser can be made of stainless steel or aluminum, depending on specific requirements. The multifunctional refrigerant core, which includes the expansion valve, receiver, filter, dryer, and internal heat exchanger, as well as the evaporator, are made of aluminum.

Thanks to its compact design, the ThermoCore ECO requires minimal installation space within residential heat pumps. Additionally, only two refrigerant lines (suction and discharge lines) are needed to connect to the compressor. This significantly reduces the risk of leaks and shortens installation times. The short refrigerant lines also make the system less susceptible to vibrations and shocks, as confirmed by tests on the vibration test bench in the AKG test laboratory.

The heat exchangers used in the ThermoCore ECO are specifically designed for operation in residential heat pumps using propane (R290) as a refrigerant. They offer high thermal performance while maintaining low pressure losses and requiring only a low refrigerant volume.
