Innovation master.system: Solar hot water production with a unique plug & work solar module on the roof

Trade show highlight at Intersolar North America 2012 from Sun Master: the new master.system with the integrated installation system enables simple installation on the roof and self-explanatory connection to existing heating systems.

Today at Intersolar North America 2012 in San Francisco Sun Master Energiesysteme GmbH (Austria/Europe) introduced the worldwide innovation, master.system, for the first time. The plug-in solar system includes all installations and can be easily connected to existing heating system and is completely self-explanatory.

“Only one unique solar module is required for a single family home, which can be very easily affixed and connected on the roof. After just a few hours the sun is already providing hot water for the whole family,” Sun Master Managing Director Dr. Gerhard Huber explained the simple functional principle of the new master.system.

Expansion step into America

Sun Master has set itself the strategic aim of positioning itself as one of the top 3 producers worldwide. With the opening of the first distribution & service branch in Texas in June 2012, exhibiting at the Intersolar North America 2012 trade show for the first-time and launching master.system Gerhard Huber intends to successfully establish the company on the American market: “Our master.system is technologically refined, easy to mount, the purchase price is attractive and it can even be moved as needed. We have hence developed a product that is perfectly suited to American needs and lifestyles.”

Plug & Work

The master.system offers the possibility of using solar energy at an attractive price and without elaborate water or electronic installations.
Traditional solar systems consist of the solar collector, a pump group, control unit, expansion tank and various components, which have to be coordinated with one another. In addition to the required water installations, as a rule copper pipes have to be laid from the roof down to the cellar (storage tank).

The new master.system is an all-in-one collector and includes all system components in the collector. Fully self-explanatory the solar system - optionally with a small photovoltaic module to generate power for the integrated pumps – has to be connected to the existing heating circuit and/or to the hot water system. No elaborate water installations are required. Instead of copper pipes PVC tubes are used, which can be flexibly laid from the collector to the storage tank.

Innovation 2012: master.system and bionic.absorber

Sun Master Energiesysteme GmbH (Austria/Europe), with more than 30 years of experience, is a leading manufacturer of solar thermal collectors and operates on a global scale. Intensive research and development work in the areas of solar process heat and solar cooling and solar sea water desalination are part of the company’s philosophy and make Sun Master a market and innovation leader within the sector.

With the master.system Sun Master is already presenting its second top innovation in solar thermal energy this year. The bionic.absorber was recently presented for the first time at Intersolar Europe 2012 in Munich. The innovation in this new generation of solar collectors now permits the heat transfer medium to flow directly along the absorber panel – instead of through pipes as to date. The heat is thereby exchanged over the entire surface and no longer at single points, as with traditional solar energy collectors.

Sun Master’s long-standing experience, the international parent company’s Greiner Holding AG use of resources as well as collaboration with universities and research institutes form the basis for the successful establishment of new and further developments on the international market.
