Function
Heimeier Thermolux K thermostatic
valves are autonomously operating
temperature controllers which do not
require any electric power supply or
connection or any other kind of external energy. They serve to control the
individual room temperature and,
thus, save energy. The Heimeier thermostatic valves allow different temperature settings which can be marked
or temperature ranges be limited or
settings be blocked respectively.
Heimeier Thermolux K-thermostatic
valves consist of the thermostatic
head and the thermostatic valve
body . If temperature rises e.g. due
to insolation, electric appliances or
people in the room, the liquid in the
temperature sensor will expand.
The corrugated tube will be compressed and so throttles the water
supply to the radiator by means of the
valve spindle in the valve seat .
Should the room temperature drop
the described procedure will be reversed. Therefore, the thermostatic
head only needs actuation in order to
change the individual setting of the
room temperature.

Dear Customer!
You dispose now of the Thermolux K
thermostatic valve which is a product
of highest quality made by Germany’s
leading manufacturer of heating
valves.
The Heimeier Thermolux K thermostatic valves are CEN certified and were
tested according to DIN EN 215. They
offer you, on the pre-condition of a
correct usage, a maximum of comfort
and energy saving.
This user information intends to make
you acquainted with the operation
and useful application of the thermostatic valves. Even if you know
already well the operation and handling, you still should read these
instructions carefully and please keep
this booklet in a safe place and pass
it on to any possible later user.
For easier reference and orientation
please consult the coloured subdivisons of the table of contents.
Should you look for some specific
item, please refer to page 15 containing a list of headwords.
The mounting of the thermostatic
valve should exclusively be carried
out by a qualified installer (please see
Mounting Instructions on page 4).
Your installer will help you if you wish
to block an individual temperature
setting or to limit the temperature setting range internally, i.e. unchangeable
from outside, either to a higher or to
a lower temperature level of your thermostatic valves.
Interesting accessories are offered on
page 13.
Special features
This thermostatic head offers several
distinctive features for energy savings
and uncomplicated operation:
– The most important temperature
settings are shown in an abridged
form as INFO on the thermostatic
head
– Economy clips, blue and red
– Reduced night performance
– Temperature setting aid on the front
side
– Anti-frost protection setting
Cleaning
The thermostatic head should only be

Easier operation for visually handicapped persons
With a view to achieving an easier
