Regulation of energy surplus
The ecoSMART system is capable to determine when an energy surplus situation occurs.
In that case, and under configurable settings that determine when the regulation start
and stop, the controller adjusts the consumption of the heat pump taking advantage of
the surplus of electricity to accumulate thermal energy, so this is obtained with lower
electricity consumption and released when the production of energy of renewable
sources falls.
Consumption control by power regulation
When the electrical consumption of your installation approximates a maximum value
configurable by the installer, the heat pump can limit its own consumption to keep the
total consumption below the limit.
Tariff control by schedule
We can define up to four time bands for each day of the week setting peak and/or valley
times for winter and summer. During these hours we can change the setpoints of the
different heat pump, this way you can decrease the electricity consumption when the
electricity is more expensive and take advantage when the electricity is cheaper to
produce thermal energy.
Control of non-critical loads
We are able to program the connection and disconnection of up to four non-critical
loads by enabling four output relays powered at 230V, setting a number of parameters
associated with the energy balance between electricity supply and consumption.
"SMART GRID READY" system
ecoSMART e-systemis a system designed to integrate intelligent networks. It is possible
to communicate it with external devices that are part of the grid and allows configuring
four "SMART GRID" operating modes in which the external controller can modify the
