2 Safety instructions
2.1 Intended use
The SDC / DHC Smile family of controllers was designed for the
sole purpose of regulating and controlling hot-water, heating and
district heating systems (including hot-water production) that do
not exceed a maximum flow temperature of 120 °C.
2.2 Requirements for start-up
ATTENTION
The heating system must be complete and filled with water
so that the pumps do not run dry and the heating boiler is not
damaged.
The control equipment must be installed in accordance with
the installation instructions.
All electrical connections (voltage supply, burner, mixer
motor, pumps, sensor wiring etc.) must be carried out by the
technician in accordance with the applicable VDE regulations
and correspond with the circuit diagrams.
If floor heating is connected, a limiting thermostat must also
be installed in the flow line after the heating circuit pump.
This switches off the pumps at excessive flow temperatures.
Before starting up the controller, have the heating technician
check all requirements listed above.
NOTE
The current time and date are already set at the factory and are
backed up by a battery.
The time switch functions based on a basic program and the
control functions are preset for common heating systems with lowtemperature boilers.
EN2H-0221GE51 R0808 11
Safety instructions SDC / DHC
2.2.1 Power supply
Do not disconnect the controller from the mains supply!
The battery for saving all individualised data is otherwise
unnecessarily strained. The frost-protection function of the
controller is deactivated.
2.2.2 Connection conditions
All electrical connection work may only be carried out by qualified
personnel!
2.2.3 Cable cross-sections
1.5 mm2 for all cables carrying 230 V (power supply, burner,
pumps, actuator).
0.6 mm2 for bus cables (recommended type J-Y(St)Y 2 x 0.6).
0.5 mm2 for sensors, selectors and analog signal cables.
2.2.4 Maximum cable lengths
Sensor, selector and analog inputs
We recommend using cables no longer than 200 m. Longer
connection lines could be used, but increase the risk of
interference.
Relay outputs
Unlimited cable length.
Bus connections
Max. length of 100 m from the first bus subscriber to the last one
(incl. wall modules).
2.2.5 Cable installation
Install cables for sensors apart from the cables carrying 230 V!
Branch boxes in the sensor cable must be avoided!
12 EN2H-0221GE51 R0808
SDC / DHC Safety instructions
2.2.6 Grounding and zeroing
Local regulations on the connection of equipment must be
observed!
2.3 Hot-water temperature greater than 60 °C
ATTENTION
Note that there is a danger of scalding at all hot-water drawoff points (kitchen, bathroom etc.) in the following cases.
Add sufficient cold water in these cases.
Automatic anti-
legionella mechanism
When the automatic anti-legionella mechanism is activated, the
hot water is automatically heated to the anti-legionella
temperature (65 °C at the factory) on the selected day and at the
selected time to kill any legionella bacteria found in the hot-water
tank.
Manual mode /
Emission
measurement
In the manual mode / emission measurement operating mode, the
hot water is heated up to the highest possible boiler temperature,
as the burner and all pumps are switched on and the mixer is
opened fully. There is an acute danger of scalding at all
connected hot-water draw-off points! Add sufficient cold water or
switch off the hot-water loading pump (at the switch of the pump,
if present). Heating and hot water are in unregulated continuous
operation. This operating mode is for special use by the chimney
sweep for emission measurement or if the controller is defective.
The high hot-water temperatures can be prevented, however, by
setting the boiler thermostat to a max. boiler temperature of
approx. 60 °C.
EN2H-0221GE51 R0808 13
Safety instructions SDC / DHC
2.4 Connection of accessory parts
WARNING
According to VDE 0730, a separator for each mains terminal
is to be provided in the voltage supply to the control
equipment. Observe the local regulations regarding
grounding and zeroing.
As soon as the mains voltage is applied to terminals 21, 22,
2, 6, 12 and 18, headers X3 and X4 can also carry mains
voltage.
If the heating circuit and hot-water loading pumps do not
have an On / Off switch, but manual switch-on and switch-off
capability is still desired, the appropriate switches must be
installed by the customer. All accessory parts (sensors,
selectors etc.) are to be connected to the respective circuit
diagram.
2.5 Maintenance and cleaning
The controller is maintenance-free. The device can be cleaned
externally with a moist (not wet) cloth.
14 EN2H-0221GE51 R0808
SDC / DHC Safety instructions
2.6 Safety precautions for EMC-compliant installation
Mains lines and sensor/data bus lines must be installed separate
from each other. A minimum of 2 cm space must be present
between the lines. It is permissible to cross lines.

ensured. If cable ducts are used, they are to be provided with cutoff bridges.
EN2H-0221GE51 R0808 15
Safety instructions SDC / DHC
When installing control or wall devices, a minimum spacing of
40 cm to other electrical equipment with electromagnetic
emissions, e.g. relays, motors, transformers, dimmers, microwave
ovens and televisions, audio speakers, computers, cordless
telephones etc., is to be ensured.

16 EN2H-0221GE51 R0808
SDC / DHC Safety instructions
The mains connection of the heating system (boiler – panel –
control equipment) must be designed as a separate circuit.
