With the ETA PVM, excess electricity from the photovoltaic system is directly converted into usable heat and efficiently integrated into the heating system. This will increase your self-consumption, relieve the strain on your heating system and allow you to use self-generated energy even more economically. Even without its own photovoltaic system, the ETA PVM offers advantages: As a supplement to existing heating systems, it can be used flexibly as a hybrid solution and provide additional heat.
ETA
PV heating module
Use solar power intelligently
With the ETA control, you can set individual charging times and use solar power precisely when it is available. This maximizes your self-consumption, efficiently utilizes surplus energy, and reduces costly peak loads.
Everything in view, everything under control
Thanks to seamless communication with the ETA-Touch controller, you can easily control and optimize your PV module locally or remotely. The result is a fully automated system that guarantees maximum efficiency and operational reliability.
ETA PV heating module
Your benefits
Easy to install and saves space
The ETA PV heating module does not need much space and can either be directly mounted on the buffer or on the wall. The installation effort is minimal as all components are already assembled and pre-wired.
Precise power control for maximum savings
Intelligent heating elements starts heat transfer even with minimal PV surpluses from 335 W or 667 W, so you hardly waste any solar power. An adjustable surplus reserve also automatically protects you from expensive grid electricity when other appliances in the house are running.
Flexible performance expansion
Cascadable for increasing demands – whether for a large photovoltaic system or a commercial application – the ETA PVM grows with your needs. Multiple modules can be flexibly combined in a cascade, enabling higher heating outputs.
Individual charging times:
Use solar power when it is available
Individual charging times can be defined via the ETA rule. This allows the self-generated solar power to be used specifically during the peak production hours at.
The advantages:
- Higher self-consumption
- Efficient use of energy surpluses
- Reduction of power peaks
- Relief for the public electricity grid
Example: Charging times can be scheduled for midday.
Control system:
Full integration into the ETA-Touch control system
Everything in view, everything under control: The PV Module is treated as a fully-fledged member of the eta family. All regulation, visualization and optimization is done intuitively via the proven ETA touch display or remotely via meinETA. The module communicates perfectly with the ETA Touch control system.
The result: A perfectly coordinated overall system that ensures maximum operational reliability and highest efficiency fully automatically.

Power-to-Heat explained in a nutshell
The intelligent connection of solar power and heat (Power-to-Heat) is the key to maximum independence. While the basic logic sounds simple – converting electricity into thermal energy – the secret to efficiency lies in the details. Our PV-Module (PVM) leaves nothing to chance, but stratifies the heat at a usable temperature precisely where it is needed, thanks to smart control technology.
Control System
Depending on the surplus electricity from the PV Plant , the heating elements are controlled.
Flow
Flow to buffer
Cooled power electronics
Safety valve with drain pipe
Installation
Mounting on the buffer with the familiar mounting set or on the wall with screws provided by the customer or the screw set with sound insulation.
Tank with heating element
The heating elements integrated into the tank are controlled in precise increments and heat the heating water to the target temperature.
Return
Buffer return
Check valve
An integrated non-return valve prevents reverse circulation
Speed-controlled pump
The heating elements are controlled depending on the surplus electricity from the PV Plant. Once the heating tank reaches the target temperature, the pump delivers the heat to the heating system at a controlled speed.
