Eltrode makes sure Hønefoss Arena stays cool for a basketball tournament

‍

When Hønefoss Arena urgently needed extra cooling capacity ahead of a basketball tournament, time was the most critical factor. Eltrode received the order, mobilized immediately, and delivered a complete solution – with delivery, installation, and commissioning all completed on the very same day.

Mobile and energy-efficient cooling

The mobile CHP 50.2 inverter heat pump was positioned outdoors and connected to the arena via flexible air ducts. The solution delivered stable and energy-efficient cooling, ensuring the arena was prepared with optimal conditions for players, spectators, and organizers alike.Hønefoss Arena is a modern multi-purpose facility with the capacity to host large sports events, where the indoor climate is crucial for both comfort and performance.

The delivery:

• Order received, delivered, installed, and commissioned on the same day
• CHP 50.2 inverter air-to-air cooling and heat pump
• Temporary cooling without permanent installations
• Reliable solution ready before the event started

Technical solution:

• Cooling capacity: 38 kW
• Airflow: 10,000 m3/hour
• Operating range: -35 degrees to +43 degrees
• Energy savings: uptil 70 percent lower energy consumption compared to traditional electrical heating solutions during heating, while the same unit delivers effective cooling when the need arises
• Mobile plug-and-play solution with fast connection to existing buildings

Result:

The project demonstrates how quickly Eltrode can establish temporary climate control when the need arises. From order to a fully operational solution on the same day. The arena reached the desired temperature in time for the tournament, without any structural interventions or the need for permanent installations.

This type of solution is particularly well-suited for:

• Sports halls
• Arenas
• Data centers
• Concerts and events
• Trade fairs and exhibitions
• Temporary cooling needs
• Emergency backup for cooling system failures

This delivery demonstrates how the CHP 50.2 combines high cooling capacity, energy-efficient inverter technology, and rapid mobilization – a solution developed for clients who demand quality. Read more about our cooling solutions.
