4.1Mounting the controller on a wall
The controller is attached to the wall by three screws.
Caution: Risk of injury and damage to the casing if incorrectly mounted.
V Do not use the rear panel of the casing as a drilling template.
V Drill the upper mounting hole (Æ Fig. 3, item 1). Drive in a screw leaving the head proud by 5 mm.
Slacken the screw at the bottom of the controller and remove the cover. Hang the controller on
the wall by means of the slot in the rear panel. Mark out the lower mounting holes (Æ Fig. 3,

4.2Installing diverter valve for return boost (optional)
The "return boost" function for boosting the heating system using the solar thermal system requires
a diverter valve to be fitted. The diverter valve directs the flow of central heating water either through
the thermal store or directly back to the boiler depending on the heating system's return temperature.
Specifications of diverter valve
Max. closing pressure0.55 bar (55 kPa)
Max. static pressure8.6 bar (860 kPa)
Max. fluid temperature95 °C, 110 °C for short
periods

Observe the connection markings on the diverter valve.The valve in Fig. 4 allows fluid
to flow from AB to B when de-energised. Once the set temperature difference is
reached, the valve switches over to divert the flow from AB to A.
Caution: Risk of system damage if the valve positioner casing is damaged.
V Use spanner on union nuts not on valve body.
V Fit the diverter valve in the return pipe between the solar storage cylinder (Æ Fig. 4) and the
boiler.

Fig. 5Diverter valve (left) and fitted temperature sensor (right)
Function of valve switch
Use the "MAN" (manual, Æ Fig. 5, item 2) setting for filling, bleeding or draining the system or as
the safety setting when there is a power failure. In the "MAN" position, the valve actuator is in the
centre position. This allows even flow of the fluid through both outlet connections.
V For normal operation, set the switch to "AUTO" (Æ Fig. 5, item 1).
Installing the temperature sensors
There are 2 temperature sensors supplied with the valve. They can be used as cylinder temperature
sensors or pipe contact sensors (Æ Table 1, page 6).
V Apply heat conducting paste (Æ Fig. 5, item 6) to temperature sensor S3 (Æ Fig. 5, item 5).
V Fit temperature sensor S3 using retaining plate (Æ Fig. 5, item 4) and spring strap (Æ Fig. 5, item
7) to the return pipe approx. 20 cm upstream of the diverter valve.
V Provide temperature sensor S3 with insulation at least 20 cm long (Æ Fig. 5, item 3).
V Fit temperature sensor S6 in the position provided on the cylinder (see installation instructions
for cylinder).

V Fit volumetric flow meter below the solar pumping station in the solar return pipe (Æ Fig. 7,
item 1). Pay attention to direction of flow and fitted position (meter dial must not face downwards).
V Fix temperature sensor for solar return (Æ Fig. 7, item 2) in position. For details of temperature
sensor fixing, refer to page 10, Fig. 5.
V Fix temperature sensor for solar flow (Æ Fig. 7, item 3) in position. For details of temperature sen-
sor fixing, refer to page 10, Fig. 5.

The heat meter is used only to check system function. It is not capable of metering to
EN 1434 or determining yield. Calculation of yield requires a device with a calibration
certificate, usage data (water volume, room heating heat requirement), weather data
and system simulation.
V Wire up electrical connections as shown in Section 4.4.

4.4Electrical connections
Danger: risk of electric shock.
V Disconnect the power supply (230 V AC) before opening up the controller.
V Secure the cable with the cable grip.
4.4.1Preparing cable entry
The cables can be fed into the housing from behind (Æ Fig. 8, item 4) or from below (Æ Fig. 8,
item 3).
V Maintain IP 20 protection when installing:
– Cut open only the cable entries required.
– Cut open the cable entry only as much as required.
V To avoid jagged edges, cut out the cable entries with a knife (Æ Fig. 8).
V Secure cables with the appropriate cable grips (Æ Fig. 8, item 2). The strain relief clamp can also
be fitted in the reverse position (Æ Fig. 8, item 1).

4.4.2Connecting the leads
Observe the following when connecting the cables:
– Comply with local regulations, such as protective earthing tests etc.
– Only use pumps, valves and sensors supplied by Buderus.
– Protect the controller from overloads and short-circuits.
– The power supply must match the specifications on the rating plate. See also Table 1, page 6.
2
– Connect only 1 lead to each terminal (max. 1.5 mm
– The temperature sensor leads can be connected either way round. The sensor leads can be up
to 100 metres long (up to 50 m length = 0.75 mm
).
2
, up to 100 m = 1.5 mm2).
– Route all sensor leads separately from cables carrying 230 V or 400 V to avoid inductive inter-
ference (minimum separation 100 mm).
– Use shielded low-voltage cables if external inductive interference is expected (e.g. from power
substations, high-voltage power cables, microwaves).
– For the 230 V connection, use a cable of at least type H05 VV- ... (NYM...).
– Ensure that structural fire safety features are not impaired.
– The leads from the motorised diverter valves shown in the configuration diagrams must be con-
nected as follows: brown = R, blue = N, yellow and green = Earth.
– Only connect pumps to the outputs R1 and R2 (speed control on these connections only).
– Motorised valves with OPEN/CLOSE command (or mixer units) must also be connected to ter-
minals to .
R3
R5
– The connections L3 to L5 are for the power supply for special functions of connected compo-
nents.
The use of some functions (double match flow, cooling, daily heating and heat exchanger anti-icing) requires additional components (valves, temperature sensors) that
must be purchased separately (Æ Table 13, page 53).
Warning: risk of damage to system due to pump failure.
V If a pump with internal electronic control circuitry is to be connected, deactivate the
speed modulation function (Æ Section 7.5.2, page 56).
V Connect the leads according to the desired configuration diagram (Æ pages 15 - 41).
V After completing the work, close the controller by replacing the cover and tightening the securing
screw.
