Operating principle
All heating and domestic hot water functions offered by
SATK20 series HIUs are controlled by a digital controller.
The controller is factory set with different parameters and settings
depending on the model (Table 1).
There are a number of specific DIP SWITCHES on the controller
circuit board; the way these are configured will determine the
settings of the various models and the optional functions enabled.
• Trimmers for set point settings
These allow setting of the temperature set point for the heating and
domestic water cycle (on low and medium temperature models)
and view the associated set value on the display.
Heating cycle

User interface
The user interface, built into the PCB, consists of the following
devices:
• LED indicator
The various functions and faults are signalled by either flashing or
steady illumination of the LEDs.
ON - Electric supply 230 V (ac)
DHW - Domestic cycle
CH - Heating cycle
FAULT - Fault detected
• RESET key
This allows restoration of normal function after the
safety thermostat has been triggered and

Error codes associated with faults signalled by illumination of the
FAULT LED are also shown on the display.
Probe fault
If a temperature probe fails, the associated cycle will be stopped
immediately and disabled.
Any requests to run cycles not associated to the previous one will
continue to run normally.
Normal operating conditions are restored automatically once the
faulty probe is working properly again (see page 12).
Safety thermostat cut-out
SATK20103HE - LOW temperature
Error code 69
The HIUs configured to support low temperature heating
continuously monitor the safety thermostat controlling the flow
temperature.
If the safety thermostat is activated during a general cycle, the
heating circulation pump immediately comes to a stop and the
modulating/mixing valve is completely closed. The thermal safety
lock valve (SATK20103HE) is closed.
In the event of a power failure, the thermal safety valve prevents hot
water from entering the heating system.
After the user has reset the block imposed by the safety thermostat,
the shut-off valve can only be re-enabled when the
mixing/modulating valves are completely closed again.
This means that if a domestic water cycle is in progress, the
activation of the shut-off valve will be postponed until the end of that
domestic water cycle.
Removing a fault
To restore the operating mode press the manual
RESET button.
Incorrect dip-switch configuration (heat interface unit disabled)
Error code 80
Removing a fault
The heat interface unit is disabled due to incorrect setting of the
dip-switches. Restore correct setting according to table 1
(page 6).
Automatic controller functions
Reset mixing/modulating valve to zero
Immediately after the power supply has been switched on, the
position of the installed mixing/modulating valves is reset to zero.
Pump anti-clog
When the pump is not in use, it is powered on for a period of
5 seconds every 24 hours.
Mixing valve/modulating valve anti-clog
The anti-clogging cycle for the mixing/modulating valve is run every
24 hours.

Domestic water cycle
This cycle always takes priority over the heating cycle
When DHW cycle activation is requested due to DHW tapping by
the user detected by the domestic water flow meter, the regulator
controls the opening of the modulating valve in order to adjust the
temperature detected by the domestic water probe to the selected
set point value.
When tapping ends, the modulating valve is fully closed.
The active domestic hot water cycle is signalled by yellow DHW
LED steady on.
The domestic hot water cycle temperature set point can be set
using trimmer P1 and shown on the display.
Heating cycle
Set point regulation
When heating cycle activation is requested by the room thermostat,
the circulation pump is powered while the mixing valve is activated
gradually until the set point temperature is reached.
At the end of the heating cycle, the circulation pump comes to a
stop and the valve is closed.
The active heating cycle is signalled by yellow CH LED steady on.
The heating cycle temperature set point can be set using trimmer P2
and shown on the display.
Floor slab heating function - SATK20103HE
Facilitates the installation of underfloor heating systems at low
temperatures. This function can only be activated and executed if
there are no faults.
It can be activated by pressing and holding the RESET button for 8
seconds.
The yellow CH LED blinks while the floor slab heating function is in
operation.
The function lasts 240 hours and is carried out by simulating a
request to run in heating mode starting from a set point of 25°C and
rising in regular intervals to a temperature of 45°C. Once the
maximum set point has been reached, the function is executed,
following the same procedures, in reverse (from the maximum set
point to the minimum set point).
This function has priority over heating and hot water cycles, and
can be suspended at any time by pressing and holding the RESET
button for 8 seconds.

Optional functions (to activate/deactivate the optional functions
the electric power supply must always be turned off!)
Domestic cycle
DHW pre-heating function
The function is enabled by setting dip switch 5 to the ON position.
During periods when the domestic water cycle is not used, if the
DHW probe detects a temperature 10°C below the SET value, the
controller partially opens the domestic hot water modulating valve for
the time required (max. 5 min.) to bring the exchanger to the
condition wherein it can assure rapid DHW production.
The domestic hot water pre-heating function is signalled by the
flashing yellow DHW LED.
This function is less of a priority than any domestic water or heating
cycles.
Heating cycle
Modulating temperature regulation with compensated set point
SATK20103HE - SATK20203HE
The function is enabled by setting dip switch 1 to the OFF position.
When the function is enabled, the flow temperature is modified
according to the temperature detected by the compensation probe
(located on the user return pipe). This allows constant monitoring of
the effective thermal output of the floor slab with the consequent
minimisation of system response times.
If the function is enabled the display shows the return temperature,
and the flow temperature is adjusted in accordance with the
following formula:
D
Flow temperature = Return temperature +
In MEDIUM/HIGH temperature configuration:DT 8–22°C
In LOW temperature configuration:DT 2–8°C
