Congratulations! You have chosen a Sauter heating controller. The
equitherm
EQJW 145 is a quality product from one of the leading
manufacturers of control technology products for the heating, ventilation and
air conditioning industry.
The EQJW 145 is a compact, weather-compensated heating controller used
to regulate flow temperatures and domestic hot water preparation. In
automatic mode, the EQJW 145 reduces the room temperature during the
night (reduced mode) by means of switching commands from the weekly time
switch (weekly switching programme), and during the day it switches to the
normal temperature. Domestic hot water preparation is switched on or off via
another switching programme. There is a choice of two adjustable
temperatures for domestic hot water. The EQJW 145 is suitable for buildings
of all types. A fixed basic programme (factory setting) ensures that
commissioning is simple. Any adaptations to the heating system which might
be needed are implemented using SERVice parameters. Automatic
summertime/wintertime change-over eliminates the need for residents to
adjust the time twice a year. The equitherm
EQJW 145 incorporates a
variety of protective functions such as the anti-frost function and the pump
anti-jamming facility. Additional functions such as automatic switch-off are
also implemented. For every installation, these features ensure optimal
comfort with the minimum use of energy.
Analogue or digital room operating units can be connected to the EQJW 145,
enabling convenient remote control of the controller from the living room.
A programmable output is provided for additional tasks. For example, it may
be used as a pilot timer output, as a signal for a collective fault alarm, and to
activate a circulating pump for domestic hot water. The communication
interface makes it possible to network several controllers, to connect to a
control station and to send alarms to a mobile telephone via SMS.
1.2Safety information
Special care is required in order to prevent injuries, damage by fire or
damage to equipment. After the device has been installed by a specialist in
accordance with the Installation Instructions enclosed with it (MV506103),
please read these instructions on operating it. Local regulations must be
followed during installation. The controller is not a safety-relevant component.
The anti-frost, overheating protection and flow temperature limitation
functions do not replace the relevant safety equipment.
Normal mode corresponds to nominal mode as per EN 12098-1.
Back-up mode means that the heating is switched off and the anti-frost function is active.

If the rotary switches are used to select a prohibited combination of positions,
e.g. simultaneous entry of setpoints for heating and domestic hot water
preparation, the controller will show this symbol:
In this case, one of the switches should be set to the symbol or to another
mode.
You can use the input knob to scroll through menus, and
to select or change values. Unless explicitly described
otherwise, you can scroll through or change
menus/values in a ring structure. There is no 'limit stop'
for adjusting values or scrolling.
The input knob has a key function, i.e. you can press it.
This is used to select the parameter just shown for
changing, or to confirm a flashing value, or to access a
lower menu level.
Press the ESC key to cancel operations, or to return from
a lower menu item to the next level up.
2.6Display
The device has an LC display (see 2.1), which can show various items of
information at the same time. The next illustration shows what the symbols
mean:

An overview of the SERVice parameters and explanations for individual
SERVice parameters is given in these sections: 'List of SERVice parameters'
and 'Explanations for individual SERVice parameters'.
In SERVice level, a specialist can adapt the basic setting of the EQJW 145 to
the installation so as to meet specific requirements. For this purpose, also
please note the installation instructions enclosed with the EQJW 145
(MV506103).
Incorrect parameterisation (setting) of the heating controller
It can cause major faults on the installation, injuries to people or damage to
the installation.
SERVice mode must only be enabled by a specialist.
Some of the parameters cannot be changed - they can only be viewed
(version number, status information).
3.3.5Explanations for individual SERVice parameters
SP01
SP02
SP03
SP04
View software version
The controller's software version number is shown.
View device status
SERVice parameter 2 allows you to read the device status of the EQJW 145.
Value 0 means that the EQJW 145 is operating without faults. The coding for
faults is shown in section7.1.2. Once the fault is rectified, the value for the
SERVice parameter is reset automatically.
Note: this coded error description is primarily used to signal faults via bus,
modem or SMS. Faults can be conveniently read directly from the ERROR
display on the controller (see7.1).
Logbook
This is not a parameter but an indicator for the logbook, in which the date,
time and type of fault is entered for every fault that occurs during operation.
Further information on this function can be found in section 7.2.
Software reset
Switching commands and/or SERVice or communication parameters are
returned to the factory setting. To do this, the value of the SERVice
parameter must be changed and confirmed. After this, the EQJW 145
performs the relevant reset and assigns value 0 to the parameter.
SP05
SP06
Manual mode
SERVice parameter SP05 is used to disable or enable manual mode. If the
value of the parameter is 0, manual mode is disabled.
Control model
Various control models are stored in the EQJW 145. Use this parameter to
specify the model that the EQJW 145 uses as the basis for control. The
following control models are available for selection.
MOD1: one control valve on the primary side
(SP06 =1)
MOD2:one control valve on the secondary side (SP06 = 2)
MOD3:two control valves on the primary side (SP06 = 3)
With MOD1 and MOD2, it is possible not only to control a heating circuit but
also to prepare DHW. SERVice parameter 33 can be used to configure the
DHW preparation.
With MOD3, the second control valve on the primary side is used for fixedvalue control (e.g. for DHW preparation). The assignment of TF2 or T
RF2
to
the appropriate terminal is done automatically (see wiring diagram). More
information about the control models and the most important applications is
given in the section on 'Information on applications'.
Effect of binary / pulse input (terminals 21, 22)
If the external switching contact is closed, this SERVice parameter can be set
appropriately (SP07 = 0, 1 or 2) to influence the heating programme, as long
as the controller is in automatic mode. If the contact is opened again, the
controller will operate according to the weekly / calendar switching
programme again and the following apply:
0 = HK in back-up mode if contact is closed
1 = HK in reduced mode if contact is closed
2 = HK in nominal mode if contact is closed
Alternatively, the input can be used for quantity metering (and therefore for
quantity limitation as well), to limit see page or to forward a fault signal (using
a modem via SMS or via the configurable relay output to another device). For
SP07, the values mean:
3 = input used as pulse input for quantity metering
4 = input used to limit seepage
The minimum flow can be limited. A signal from the auxiliary contacts of a
control unit can be used to do this. If the contact input is closed, the valve
on the primary side closes and is not opened again until the setpoint for
the flow temperature is 5K higher than the actual value.
5 = input is a fault signal input, used to forward fault signals from other
devices
SP08
Room temperature recording
Various types of room temperature sensor can be connected:
0 = no room temperature recording
1 = connect room sensor
2 = connect EGS52/15 or EGT333 with room sensor
3 = connect EGS52/15 or EGT333 without room sensor
4 = only for MOD1,2 with second tank charge pump (SP49 = 2): the
analogue input (terminal 28) is not used as a room sensor but as a second
flow sensor for DHW preparation (also see the section on 'Application
examples').
Room operating unit EGS52/15 allows you to switch over the controller's
mode remotely. Room operating unit EDB100 can also be connected via the
device bus and used to switch the mode over. The mode on the EQJW145
can also be changed using a control station via Modbus. In case of
contradictory commands, the following priority applies: direct settings on
EQJW145 have priority 1. A setting using room operating unit EDB100 via
device bus or a preset via Modbus have priority 2. The setting via the binary
input has priority 3. Settings on room operating unit EGS52/15 have the
lowest priority. If the setpoint for the room temperature is changed via the
setpoint transmitter of the EGS 52/15 or EGT 333 room operating units, it
also changes the actual value for the room temperature at the sensor input of
the EQJW 145. This, in turn, means that the flow temperature and, therefore,
the heating capacity, for the room are altered accordingly.
SP09
SP10
Connect room temperature
A room temperature sensor (resistance sensor or device bus) is required for
this function. The flow temperature setpoint is changed – in divergence from
the setpoint according to the heating characteristic – if the room temperature
in the reference room diverges from the room setpoint. The change in flow
temperature is limited to a maximum of ± 30K.
SP09 = 1 or 2 can be used to allow the room temperature connection to
influence the flow setpoint in one direction only. The meanings are:
0 = flow temperature is not changed, i.e. the room temperature connection
is not enabled
1 = flow setpoint can only be reduced, i.e. the room temperature
connection is only enabled if TRi> T
2 = flow setpoint can only be increased, i.e. the room temperature
connection is only enabled if TRi< T
3 = flow setpoint can be reduced and increased, i.e. the room temperature
connection is enabled if TRi<> T

Scanning time for room temperature if connected
If the room temperature connection is enabled, this SERVice parameter
determines the period within which a one-off adaptation of the flow setpoint
can occur. In "heavy" buildings with sluggish heating systems, a higher value
is more suitable than it would be for buildings of lightweight construction and
heating that reacts quickly. This time must not be too short, so as to prevent
control fluctuations. The algorithm prevents hunting by changing the flow
setpoint more quickly (at a rate of ±2 K within a scanning period) when the
deviation of the room temperature is diminishing than when it is increasing (at
a rate of ±1 K within a scanning period). If the deviation of the room
temperature is less than 0.25 K, the flow setpoint is not altered. In most
cases, the factory setting (20 minutes) provides satisfactory results for
residential buildings. As a general rule, the factory setting (20 minutes) leads
to satisfactory results in residential buildings.
Open windows or other cooling or heating loads can influence control!
Sudden removal of these influences can lead to the value moving above or
below the room temperature in the opposite direction for short periods!
Correction to room temperature
The measured value for the room temperature is calibrated with the help of
this SERVice parameter. The value that was entered is added to the
measured value for the room temperature.
Correction to outdoor temperature
The measured value for the outdoor temperature is calibrated with the help of
this SERVice parameter. The value that was entered is added to the
measured value for the outdoor temperature.

Return temperature recording
If a return temperature sensor is to be used, this parameter must be set to 1.
Correction to return temperature
The measured value for the return temperature is calibrated with the help of
this SERVice parameter. The value that was entered is added to the
measured value for the return temperature. If there are two return sensors
(MOD3), this parameter only affects the TRF of the heating circuit.
Proportional band
SERVice parameter 15 specifies the proportional band (XP) of PI control for
the flow temperature in K.
Proportional band – 2nd control circuit (only MOD3)
SERVice Parameter 16 specifies the proportional band (XP) of PI control for
the second control circuit in K.
Reset time
SERVice parameter 17 specifies the reset time (TN) of PI control for the flow
temperature in seconds.
Reset time – 2nd control circuit (only MOD3)
SERVice parameter 18 specifies the reset time (TN) of PI control for the
second control circuit in seconds.

Runtime for actuator of control valve
Valves with a motorised actuator need a specified time to open or close
completely. This is known as the valve runtime. This SERVice parameter is
used to set the equitherm
EQJW 145 to the runtime of the valve drive that is
used. Optimal control quality and various protective functions are only
ensured if the valve runtime is set correctly.
Runtime for second actuator
Depending on the control model, a second control valve is used on the
primary side, or a changeover valve is used on the secondary side. SERVice
parameter SP20 is used to set the valve runtime for the second actuator.
Minimum and maximum limits for flow temperature
The setpoint for the flow temperature can be limited. The value of SERVice
parameter SP21 sets the lower limit in this case, and the value of SERVice
parameter 22 sets the upper limit. Parameters SP21 and SP22 specify a
minimum and maximum flow temperature.
Limiting function for the return temperature
A limiting function can be set for the primary-side return temperature of the
converter. If the value falls below the limiting function, the flow temperature is
adjusted (also see SP28). The following illustration shows the limiting
function.
The following parameters are available to set the limiting function:
SP23
SP24
SP25
Upper value of maximum limit for primary return temperature
(T
) for heating.
LO(RF)
Lower value of maximum limit for primary return temperature
(T
Outdoor temperature (T
) for heating.
LU(RF)
) at which the sliding portion of
A(RF)
the limiting function for the primary return temperature starts
during heating.
SP26
Slope (S
) of the sliding portion of the limiting function for
L(RF)
the primary return temperature for heating.
SP27
Maximum limit (T
LOBW(RF)
) for the primary return temperature
during DHW heating.
In MOD1 or MOD2, if the heating is in reduced or normal mode and DHW
heating occurs at the same time, the maximum limit value for the primary
return temperature is checked with the outdoor-temperature-dependent value
for the heating circuit and the fixed value for the DHW during this time.
To make the return temperature limitation effective, return temperature
recording must be enabled (see SP13). In summer mode, or if the heating is
in back-up mode, the limitation on the return temperature for the heating is
not enabled.
Intervention intensity if return temperature is exceeded
If the limiting function for the return temperature set with SP23-SP27 is
exceeded, the setpoint for the flow temperature is reduced by the value
indicated in SP28 for each degree of the excess.

SP29 - SP31
Maximum limit values for quantity metering
SP29, SP30 and SP31 specify maximum limit values for quantity metering
(i.e. usually for the flow or heat quantity/power). SP29 defines the maximum
limit value for heating and DHW, SP30 only defines this value for the heating
and SP31 only defines it for DHW. The value is always entered in units of
'pulses per minute'. See the following examples of converting the limit value
for the flow volume or power to the 'Pulses per minute' variable.
Example 1:
The flow volume should be limited to 1.6 m³ / hour.
The flow sensor transmits a signal of 50 pulses / litre.
The following conversion: 1.6 m³ / hour = 1,600 litres / hour and 1600 litres /
hour = 26.67 litres / minute, and the flow sensor variable of 50 pulses / litre,
give a limit value that must be entered on the EQJW145 (SP29, SP30 or
SP31) of 26.67 litres / min x 50 pulses / litre = 1333 pulses / min.
Example 2:
The power in heating mode should be limited to 35kW. With simultaneous
heating operation and DHW heating, 50 kW should be allowed. A heat
quantity meter is available which outputs 1200 pulses / kWh.
The following conversion: 35 kW = 35 kWh / h and the given variable for the
heat quantity meter provide 35 kWh / h x 1200 pulses / kWh = 42,000 pulses
/ h. This gives a value that must be entered on the EQJW145 of 42,000
pulses / h = 42,000 : 60 pulses / min = 700 pulses / min. The second limit
value is 50 kW. The same conversion: (50 kWh / h x 1200 pulses / kWh x 1h
/ 60 min = 1000 pulses / min) gives a value of 1000 pulses / min that must be
entered in the EQJW145. In the EQJW145, a value of 1000 should be
assigned to SP29 and a value of 700 to SP30.
The EQJW145 switches automatically between the following two measuring
methods.
measurement of time interval (time interval measurement) between two
pulses and calculation of the 'pulses per minute' variable
measurement of the number of pulses per minute (pulse measurement) .
If the three set limit values (SP29 to SP31) are in the range 0.1 - 16.0, the
EQJW145 automatically switches over to time interval measurement. If a
value between 60 and 16.000 is entered for one of SERVice parameters
SP29 to SP31, the controller switches over automatically to pulse
measurement.
