Key features
- Innovative Water Heating Modes for Maximum Efficiency
The Imperium controller offers three distinct operation modes – One-Pass, Multi-Pass and Combined, to ensure flexibility and efficiency tailored to your needs.
- One-Pass Operation
Directly heats cold water from the storage tank to outlet temperature. Enables the heat pump to directly contribute to draw off capacity and allows for the use of smaller storage tanks, saving space and cost. One-pass also provides faster recovery of outlet temperatures.
- Multi-Pass Operation
Gradually heats water, ensuring a consistent temperature rise. Optimises heat pump efficiency with a standard 5K ΔT.
- Smart Switching for Optimal Performance
The real power of the Imperium system controller lies in its ability to switch seamlessly between these two modes. This ensures your system operates at peak efficiency, balancing performance with cost-effectiveness.
- System Simplification
With the Imperium controller, the need for a buffer vessel is eliminated for domestic hot water systems. The system can now draw heat directly from the heat pump to the DHW vessel. This simplifies the overall setup, reducing installation complexity and cost.
