Summary: We generalise the classical Weyl pseudo-differential calculus on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to the setting of two $d$-tuples of operators $A=(A_{1}, \dots , A_{d})$ and $B=(B_{1}, \dots , B_{d})$ acting on a Banach space generating bounded $C_0$-groups satisfying the Weyl canonical commutation relations. We show that the resulting Weyl calculus extends to symbols in the standard symbol class $S^{0}$ provided appropriate bounds can be established. Using transference techniques we obtain boundedness of the $H^{\infty}$-functional calculus (and even the H\"ormander calculus), for the abstract harmonic oscillator $L = \frac12\sum\limits_{j=1}^d (A_j^2+B_j^2)-\frac12d$.
