2.1Beforeyoustart

Thetwoapplications,A367.1andA367.2arealmostidentical. However,A367.2hassomeextrafunctionswhicharedescribed separately.
Theapplicationsareveryflexible.Thesearethebasicprinciples:
Heating(circuit1):
Typically,theflowtemperatureisadjustedaccordingtoyour requirements.TheflowtemperaturesensorS3isthemost importantsensor.ThedesiredflowtemperatureatS3iscalculated intheECLcontroller,basedontheoutdoortemperature(S1).
Thelowertheoutdoortemperature,thehigherthedesiredflow temperature.Bymeansofaweekschedule(upto3‘Comfort’ periods/day),theheatingcircuit1canbein‘Comfort’or ‘Saving’mode(twodifferenttemperaturevaluesfordesiredroom temperature).
ThemotorizedcontrolvalveM1isopenedgraduallywhenthe flowtemperatureislowerthanthedesiredflowtemperatureand viceversa.
Thereturntemperature(S5)tothedistrictheatingsupplyshould notbetoohigh.Ifso,thedesiredflowtemperaturecanbeadjusted (typicallytoalowervalue),thusresultinginagradualclosingofthe motorizedcontrolvalve.
Inboiler-basedheatingsupplythereturntemperatureshouldnot betoolow(sameadjustmentprocedureasabove).

Furthermore,thereturntemperaturelimitationcandepend ontheoutdoortemperature.Typically,thelowertheoutdoor temperature,thehighertheacceptedreturntemperature.
