Our Core Promises
Why Manufacturers Choose Intecma
With our own R&D team, we continuously improve our products. From the ongoing development of our soft starters to new generations of frequency converters, every step is driven by focused engineering, extensive testing and practical feedback from OEM manufacturers.
The Challenges in Our Market
Heat Pumps Place New Demands on Power Electronics
The European heat pump market is growing rapidly, and control requirements are growing with it. Grid congestion, stricter certification standards and the transition to natural refrigerants are forcing OEM manufacturers to choose smart, proven power electronics. Intecma develops exactly what your product needs.
The market is changing faster than the standards. Intecma supplies power electronics that are ready for the future.
Grid Congestion and Peak Currents
Uncontrolled compressor starts cause current peaks that burden the grid and wear your installation. A soft starter builds up voltage gradually and structurally limits inrush current.
Certification and Compliance
VDE certification (EN 60335-1, EN 60335-2-40) and Kiwa compliance are decisive for admission to the European market. Non-certified components block your market access. Intecma supplies certified solutions as standard.
Modulating Heat Pumps and BLDC
Modern heat pumps modulate using BLDC motors that require precise frequency control. Our frequency converters control these motors without sensors, tailored to how your system operates.
The Market
The Market Demands Certified Quality
The European heat pump market is recovering and growing: according to the EHPA, 2.62 million heat pumps were sold in sixteen European countries in 2025, 10% more than in 2024. At the same time, standards are becoming stricter and the market is closing itself off to non-certified components. Intecma is leading the way.

The Smartest Choice for Controlling Your Air Conditioner or Heat Pump
Two core technologies together provide the complete solution for controlling compressors in heat pumps, air conditioners and cooling systems. The soft starter ensures a controlled start without peak current, while the frequency converter continuously regulates speed for maximum efficiency. Which one suits your product? That depends on your application, and we are happy to help you decide.
