IMS Heat Pumps relying on ESBE Valves for commercial contracts
W
hen renewable energy specialist IMS Heat Pumps was called upon by repeat client Cooper Construction to provide a fl exible heating system for Coventry-based Startin Tractors’ new
workshop and offi ces, the company chose to use ESBE valves for the project.
The customised package encompassed a pair of 50kW Clade air source heat pumps, delivering a 45oC fl ow temperature via underfl oor heating circuits set in the concrete fl oor slabs, with an ESBE CRC200 valve off ering very accurate, outside temperature compensated control. IMS Heat Pumps’ operations director, Lee Brown said: “The design was based on providing room conditions of 21oC in the offi ces, with the facility to heat the workshops to the same temperature, though some of the time they will be unheated.
The factory has a 50kW design load with the offi ces being just 40kW. The client also wanted to keep the system controls very straightforward, so we designed it so that the ESBE valve takes care of it. Essentially, the three separate heating zones are all weather compensated: with Magna 3 Grundfos pumps measuring the temperature diff erential and working with the ESBE valve to ensure we are directing the right level of heat energy to each area and guaranteeing substantial energy savings will be achieved across the year.”
“We have been buying from ESBE for 10 years or more now because of the high quality, the range of choice and the reliability. Plus, we get good technical support – in this instance we spoke to ESBE about the requirements and they specifi ed the CRC200 valve to match. It was exactly the solution we needed.”
