Smart Heat Pump

Heat pumps offer the most energy-efficient and green way to provide heating and cooling in many applications. They extract heat from a source (air, water, ground) to increase the temperature of water/air for domestic heating or sanitary hot water. Thanks to the energy transfer by the Carnot process (i.e. reversed fridge), heat pumps have an electric energy efficiency of up to 400%.

This solution combines the best-in-class motor control solution for heat transfer and optimized power consumption to increase efficiency even more. It also allows for the opportunity to add additional smart features for a value proposition as an end product by being used in conjunction with the Smart Heat Pump Controller solution.
