The next generation of buildings
breathe due to Danfoss solutions
Shanghai Tower
After its completion, the Shanghai
Tower will be the tallest building in
China - second in the world.
A total of 6,700 control valves from
Danfoss will automatically provide the
Shanghai Tower with precise control
and balancing of the water ow in a
pipeline system that has a combined
length of one kilometer.
Danfoss will also supply 660 AC drives
for the heating and cooling system,
which will ensure that the pumps,
compressors and blowers only run as
fast as the current temperature settings
require.
The Shanghai Tower has already
received the American Leadership
in Energy and Environmental Design
certication in gold and the Chinese
Three-star green building award.
Prime Tower – Zurich
The Prime Tower is not only the tallest
building in Zurich - it also holds records
for its energy consumption.
The 6,150 valves and 81 drives from
Danfoss in the heating and cooling
systems make the Prime Tower one
of the most energy-ecient
buildings of today.
The building was awarded the
green property label, a new Swiss
sustainability rating that measures
properties and buildings on the basis
of ve criteria: energy, materials, use,
infrastructure and life cycle. In addition,
the Prime Tower has been certied
according to the International LEED
Gold Standard.
