1.2 Application area of Superstatic 470/479
The Superstatic 470/479 enables the Seasonal Performance Factor (SPF) of a heat pump to be
measured and its power determined. The performance factor is equivalent to the ratio between the
delivered heat capacity or useful energy and the electrical energy absorbed during a given lapse of
time. The measured values for the performance factors are shown on the Superstatic 470/479
display and can be read out via the M-Bus Communication Interface incorporated into the heat
pump-module.

The Superstatic 470/479 contains a heat pump-Module, i.e. an additional double module with an
M-Bus output, four configurable non-galvanically separated digital inputs and a temperature
sensor input (not operational at present).
The main connection board of the computer unit has two additional inputs.
2.2 Safety notes
Before using the Superstatic 470/479, avoid electrostatic discharges during fitting or use. Before
touching the computing unit or the heat pump module, you are advised to touch an earthing source
(e.g. a water pipe or a hot water pipe) to effect an electrical discharge from your own person.
2.3 Recognition of the heat pump module
By means of the Prog470/Prog479 software the configuration of the Superstatic 470/479 and the
parameterisation of the inputs used for calculation of t he performance factors can be detect ed and
displayed.

2.4 Differences between SPF1, SPF2, SPF3
Three different performance factors can be measured and displayed using the Superstatic
470/479.
he SPF1 value displays the performance factor of the heat pump over a particular period of time.
T
The SPF1 can be equated with a seasonal performance factor (COPA). The value of the previous
period is stored and can be displayed.
The value SPF2 shows the performance factor of the heat pump since its initial commissioning.
The SPF2 is never reset.
he SPF3 value shows the performance factor of the heat pump in an event period of one day.
T
The SPF3 is reset daily at midnight. An overview of the past 31 days can be shown on the display.

3. Functional de scription
3.1 Supply and safety
The Superstatic 470/479 must be operated with a mains power voltage of 230/90 VAC or 24 V
AC/DC.
A battery supply is not permitted.
Please respect the following notes.
3.1.1 Power supply modules
The mains power module 230/90 VAC – 45/60 Hz is to be protected by an (inert) 1AT fuse.
lectrical connection of the power supply modules
E
The electrical connection is to be established by a qualified person in compliance with the valid
standards and having regard to local safety requirements. The mains power line is to be laid in
such a way that no hot parts (pipes etc. above 80 °C) may damage its insulation. The electrical
connections must not come into contact with water.
3.1.2 Safety instructions
The Superstatic 470/479 has been manufactured and tested in compliance with safety standard
EN60950 and was perfectly safe at the time of dispatch from the factory. To maintain that condition
and ensure safe operation of the appliance the user must comply with the instructions set out in
this document. When opening covers or removing components parts which carry voltage may be
exposed. All interventions and repairs must therefore be performed by a specially trained and
authorised professional. If the housing and/or the connection cable are damaged the power supply
module must be disconnected and secured against accidental re-starting. In general, an installation
situation with above average heat accumulation must be avoided. Above average heat
accumulation is prejudicial to the service life of the electronic components.
For protection against damage and dirt, the packaging should not be removed until immediately
before installation.
For cleaning purposes use only a cloth moistened with water. Do not use cleaning fluids or
solvents.
The connection cables must not be secured to the pipe and under no circumstances may they be
insulated.

5.1 Operating instructions Prog470 / Prog479
5.1.1 Introduction
The Prog470/Prog479 software permits programming and read-out for the Superstatic 470/479.
The installation instructions for the Supercal 531 computing unit and the installation instructions for
the Prog531 software remain valid for most functions. The change from the Supercal 531 consists
in the fact that the Heat pump module is an integral part of the Superstatic 470/479. When the
module is detected by the Prog470/Prog479 software, the “SPF Module” tab is added. The
configuration of the digital inputs is effected in this tab.
The following chapters provide important information about installation and use of the Prog470/
Prog479 software and about the parameterization of the different inputs which are used to
calculate the various performance factors (SPF1, SPF2 und SPF3).
