Q: Which temperature control systems hold the greatest potential for optimisation?
A: Temperature controlled pump in single circulation systems.
Q: Which temperature control systems hold the greatest potential for optimisation?
A: Unregulated temperature control systems that do not adapt operation according to the load.
Q: Which temperature control systems hold the greatest potential for optimisation?
A: Three way valve Regulated temperature control systems that adapts operation according to the load.
Q: What is the most efficient and simple way of controlling heating, cooling and refrigeration systems?
A: Intelligent three way valves controlling the amount of water to the pump and heat exchanger accordingly.
Q: What is the most efficient and simple way of controlling heating, cooling and refrigeration systems?
A: Intelligent pumps equipped with temperature sensors that measure the outlet temperature and signal the pump to regulate its flow accordingly – without the use of valves.
Q: What is the most efficient and simple way of controlling heating, cooling and refrigeration systems?
A: Thermos element three way valves controlling the amount of water to the heat exchangers.
