The adaptor kits needed for ESBE mixing valves are supplied
with the controller. Connect
up
the actuator
controller and mixing valve as set out in the brief
description provided with each adaptor kit.
The controller can also be used for other makes of mixing valve using various adaptor
kits that can be ordered. Installation ins tructions will be enclosed with the adaptor kit
If desired the sensor cables can be extended to a maximum of 30m using a
cable with a cross-section of at least 0.38mm². Make sure that ther e is no
contact resistance!
Position the sensor precisely in the area to be measured! Only use immersion, pipe-mounted or flat-mounted sensor suitable for the specific area of
application with the appropriate permissible t emperature range.
The temperature sensor cables must be routed separately from mains
voltage cables, and must not, for example, be rout ed in the same cable duct!
FLOW PIPE SENSOR CRS211:
The sensor is prewired, and should be secured in a suitable position on the heating
circuit’s flow pipe using the pipe clip provided. To make sure that the correct temperature is registered, the sensor should be surrounded with pipe insulation.
OUTDOOR SENSOR CRS214:
Mount the outdoor sensor in a shady position out of the wind on the north side of the
building.
Connect the cable in the sensor box – polarity does not matter in this case. Depending
on the inertia of the heating system, set the back of the sensor box into the brickwork if
necessary in order to take the residual heat of the building into account.
ROOM SENSOR CRS231:
If a room sensor is required, it should be connected as follows:
Strip a maximum of 40 mm of insulation from a 4x0.38 mm² cable and insert the end
of the cable through the free lead-in on the under side of the actuator cover. Connect the
cable to the two free terminals in the black cover – polarity does not matter in this case.
UNIVERSAL SENSOR CRS213
Mount and secure the sensor in a suitable position according to the application. To
make sure the correct temperature is registered, the sensor should be surr ounded
with pipe insulation.
HIGH TEMPERATURE SENSOR CRS215:
Install the immersion sensor pocket in a suit able place for the application. Mount the
high temperature sensor inside the immersion sensor pocket.
Safety information: Power supply must be switched off completely before
work is started on the control and connected loads.
Warning: 230 VAC
If the circulation pump is to be operated via the contr oller, remove the three safety
terminals from the preconnected cable and connect the cable to the circulation pump
as follows:
Green/yellow: Earth PE
Blue: Neutral N
Brown/black/grey: Phase L
Please note: If the pump is not connected, the electrician should remove the cable.
Safety information: Power supply must be switched off completely before
work is started on the control and connected loads.
Warning: 230 VAC
Please note: The controller replaces in no way safety devices. Precautions such as
frost, scald and overpressure protection, etc., must be provided in the installation if
necessary.
The controller must only be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with standards and/or local regulations.
The 90C controller should be wired up in the following order:
Plug the preconnected cable labelled “power supply” into a 230 V / 50 Hz socket
outlet with earthing contact.
Wiring:
Green/yellow: Earth PE
Blue: Neutral N
Brown: Phase L
COMMISSIONING HELP / SET-UP WIZARD
The first time the controller is turned on and af ter the language and time are set, a
query appears as to whether you want to parametrise the controller using the commissioning help or not. The commissioning help can also be terminated or called up again
at any time in the special functions menu 15.2. The commissioning help guides you through the necessary basic settings in the correct order, and provides brief descriptions
of each parameter in the display.
Pressing the „esc“ key takes you back to the previous value so you can look at the selected setting again or adjust it if desired. Pressing the „esc“ mor e than once takes you
back step by step to the selection mode, thus cancelling the commissioning help.
Observe the explanations for the the individual parameters on the following
pages, and check whether further settings are necessary for your application.
FREE COMMISSIONING
If you decide not to use the commissioning help, you should make the necessary settings in the following sequence:
- Menu 18. Language
- Menu 3. Time, date and operating times
- Menu 5 Settings for heat circuit, all settings
- Menu 14. Protective functions if necessary
- Menu 15. Special functions if necessary
- Menu 4.2 Operating mode „Manual“ should be used to test the switch outputs
with the consumers connected, and to check the sensor values for
plausibility. Then switch on automatic mode.
Observe the explanations for the the individual parameters on the following
pages, and check whether further settings are necessary for your application.
Do not open the unit until it has been disconnected!
MALFUNCTIONS WITH ERROR MESSAGES
If the controller detects a malfunction, the red light
flashes and the warning symbol also appears in the
display. If the error is no longer present, the warning
symbol changes to an info symbol and the red light
no longer flashes. To obtain more detailed information on the error, press the key under the warning
or info symbol.
Do not try to deal with this yourself. Consult
a specialist in the event of an error!
MAINTENANCE
In the course of the general annual maintenance of your heating system you
should also have the functions of the controller checked by a specialist and
have the settings optimised if necessary.
Performing maintenance:
- Check the date and time (see menu 3.1)
- Assess/check plausibility of statistics (see menu 2)
- Check the error memory (see menu 2.6)
- Verify/check plausibility of the current measurement values (see menu 1)
