2 - INTRODUCTION
The Thorix EVOLUTION manages and controls a mixed heating
circuit (circuit n°2) according to outdoor temperature and as an
option to a direct heating circuit (circuit n°1) which is controlled by
a thermostat or ambient temperature sensor, using energy provided
by a boiler or a heat pump.
2.1 - Operating
The Thorix EVOLUTION is equipped with an electronically-
controlled, 3-way mixing valve which adjusts the temperature of the
outgoing water (to the radiators or underoor heating) according to
outdoor temperature (with an outdoor sensor) and the temperature
in the space that is to be heated (with or without a thermostat or
interactive ambient temperature sensor).
it is equipped with an electronically-controlled motorised 2-way
valve, which allows the water coming from the boiler to ow straight
to Circuit 1 (direct) - radiators or underoor heating - according to
the temperature in the space that is to be heated (a thermostat or
ambient temperature sensor is necessary in this case).
The advantages: • The technology of theThorix EVOLUTION is
reliable and low-noise (electronically-controlled
circulator pump and valve).
• Quick and easy access to components.

2.6 - Installation recommendations
This connection is optional in cases where the generator is equipped
with a 3-way valve which ensures a total switch to domestic hot
water production when requested.
The underoor heating circulator pump slows down automatically
depending on the drops in pressure (max. value corresponds to
PAR.263).
To ensure that domestic hot water takes priorityit is possible
to set an external contact input ( PAR.204 = 1: controls when heating
circuits are stopped) and connect a dry contact switch from the boiler
onto the Thorix EVOLUTION.
If there is a domestic hot water request the dry contact opens and
causes the heating circuits to stop.
2.6.1 - Domestic hot water production linked to a
heat generator
When underoor heating is connected to circuit 2 on the THORIX
Evolution, the underoor temperature limiter (UTL) on the THORIX
MUST be used to monitor power supply from the heat generator.
See § "Electrical connections" for details.
2.6.2 - Underoor heating as circuit 2

3 - INSTALLATION
The Thorix EVOLUTION must be installed in an open space to allow
the electronic components (regulation and low-energy pump) to
cool down by means of natural ventilation.
The ventilation holes underneath and on top of the appliance should
be left free.
The appliance must absolutely not be installed in a conned space
such as a closed cupboard.
The maximum room temperature must not exceed 25 °C.
Leave a free space of 50mm on each side of the appliance so that
the casing may be removed easily.
3.1 - Installation site
Connection to the primary boiler circuit and heating circuits
must be made using a PEX 25 tube, a steel 3/4’’ tube or a copper
22-1 tube and 3/4’’ at swivel joints.
3.2.2 - Connecting to primary circuit and
heating circuits
Power absorbed: 4 to 70W depending on the speed.

To heat with radiators or fan coil units, the heating water temperature
must not exceed 80°C. This limit is automatically set when the circuit
selected in the "Configuration" menu is "Radiators".
Thermostatically-controlled valves: these valves should primarily be
used on premises which benet from a lot of free energy calories
from the sun.
In an installation where all valves are thermostatically controlled,
it is essential to use a bi-passage function (e.g. a dierential valve).
For installations which include thermostatically-controlled valves
and a room temperature control (thermostat or room temperature
sensor), the premises where the room temperature control is located
MUST have radiator(s) equipped with manual valve(s).
It is IMPERATIVE to refer to the installation and assembly
instructions of the thermostat or the room temperature sensor to
ensure that you get the best results from it.
3.2.5 - Application for radiator or fan coil unit
circuit(s)
3.2 - Hydraulic connections
3.2.1 - Buer Volume on Generator Return
To prevent the generator from overheating when the radiator(s)
circuit(s) or heating oor(s) are no longer in demand (closing the
thermostatic valves and/or closing the Thorix 3-way mixer valve)
and in the case of installation with a generator having a low
inertia (low volume of water and/or low mass) install obligatorily
on the return of the generator a buer volume sucient and
corresponding to the largest power stage of this generator.
Note: in the case of a modulating generator, the largest stage is in
fact its minimum power (= 0 if 100% modulating or its minimum
power «Pmini» if modulating from «Pmini» to «Pmax»).
Example 1, larger-stage electric boiler P = 4kW, operating with
a dierential control ΔT = 2°K and for operation of a minimum
duration Δt = 2 minutes, the minimum volume of the boiler and
the buer volume must be:
Vmini = P(kW) x ∆t =
2(kW) x 4 (hour)
x 1000 ≥ 57 (liters)
If the boiler contains 5 liters of water, the minimum buer volume
is 57 - 5 = 52 liters.
Example 2, gas boiler or fuel oil «Pmini» = 8 kW, operating with
a dierential control ΔT = 7°K and for operation of a minimum
duration Δt = 5 minutes, the minimum volume of the boiler and
the buer volume must be :
Vmini = P(kW) x ∆t =
8(kW) x 5 (hour)
x 1000 ≥ 82 (liters)
If the boiler contains 30 liters of water, the minimum buer volume
is 82 - 30 = 52 liters.
Example 3, Larger Power Stage of Heat Pump P = 11 kW, operating
with a dierential control ΔT = 5°K and for operation of a minimum
duration Δt = 5 minutes, the minimum volume of the heat pump
and buer volume must be :
Vmini = P(kW) x ∆t =
11(kW) x 5 (hour)
x 1000 ≥ 158 (liters)
If the heat pump contains 5 litres of water, the minimum buer
volume is 158 - 5 = 153 litres.

Several dierent types of material are used to make a heating circuit.
Instances of corrosion may occur through galvanic coupling in new
and old installations alike.
The water circuit must only be lled using untreated (unsoftened)
water from the drinking water circuit. If water from any other source
(e.g. a well or a drill-hole) is used, the warranty will be rendered null
and void.
Water lling:
Ensure that all valves are open when the heating circuit is lled
with water.
3.3.2 - Water for lling the tank
3.3.3 - Heating circuit treatment
Central heating installations must be cleaned to eliminate debris
(copper, bres, soldering waste) which can come from setting up
the installation or chemical reactions between metals.
Treatment products from other manufacturers may be used if they
guarantee suitability to all the materials used in the installation and
they oer eective corrosion resistance. In this case, please refer to
their insruction manuals.
We would recommend the use of SENTINEL products for preventative
and curative heating water circuit treatment.
• Fitting the appliance onto new installations (under 6 months) :
- Clean the installation with an all-purpose cleaning product to
eliminate installation debris (copper, bres, soldering waste).
For example : SENTINEL X300 or SENTINEL X800.
- Rinse the installation thoroughly until the water is clear and
completely free of impurities.
- Protect the installation from corrosion with an inhibitor, (for
example SENTINEL X100) or from corrosion and frost with an
inhibitor and an anti-freeze agent (for example SENTINEL X500
or SENTINEL R600).
• Fitting the appliance onto existing installations:
- De-sludge the installation with a product for eliminating sludge
from the intallation, for example SENTINEL X400 or SENTINEL
X800.
- Rinse the installation thoroughly until the water is clear and
completely free of impurities.
- Protect the installation from corrosion with an inhibitor, (for
example SENTINEL X100) or from corrosion and frost with an
inhibitor and an anti-freeze agent (for example SENTINEL X500
or SENTINEL R600).
The corrosion inhibitor:
- Limits limescale formation,
- Prevents "pinhole" corrosion,
- Prevents sludge accumulation and the spread of bacteria in
new installations (algae in low-temperature circuits)
- Prevents hydrogen formation
- Eliminates noise from generators.
The oxygen present in air is very corrosive. Therefore, manual or
automatic degassing air valves should be tted to each high point
of the installation and manual air valves should be tted onto each
radiator to ensure a continuous degassing of the installation (see
§ "Purging").
3.3.4 - Degassing the installation
Any deterioration of the appliance which
is due to unsuitable lling water quality,
corrosion, absence of the treatment products
which are described above and / or incorrect
degassing of the appliance will render the
warranty null and void.
INVALIDATION OF WARRANTY
Before tting the Thorix EVOLUTION, the installation must be rinsed
with a suitable product.
This helps to eliminate all traces of debris such as soldering waste,
joint ller, grease, mud or metallic particles in radiators, underoor
heating circuits etc.
3.3.1 - Preparing the hydraulic circuit
3.3 - Treatment of heating circuit water
For underoor heating, the heating water temperature must not
exceed 50°C. This limit must be set in the "PARAMETRes" (P252 <
50°C) menu when the circuit selected in the "configuration" menu
is "underfloor".
The mixed circuit (n° 2) is equipped with a manual reset aquastat
set to 65°c at the heating circulator pump outlet.
If circuit n°1 is also an underoor heating circuit, it is obligatory to
add another safety measure by tting another 65°C aquastat with
manual reset, which will cut o the boiler circulation pump in case
of over-heating.
3.2.6- Application for underoor heating
circuit(s)
If your second circuit is an underoor
heating circuit it is OBLIGATORY to
control the power supply of the boiler from
the underoor heating temperature limiter
on the Thorix EVOLUTION (see § "Electrical
connections").
Furthermore, it is important to protect central heating installations
from risks of corrosion, limescale, and microbiological development
by using a corrosion inhibitor which is suitable for all types of
installation (steel radiators, cast iron, PEX underoor heating).
Products used for heating water treatment must be approved by
your local or national public hygiene and health authority.

The appliance is delivered from the factory fully wired. However, it
is still necessary to connect to the following items to the correct
terminals:
- Amb1(RTS1) = Primary direct circuit room temperature sensor
(Ref.751009) or room thermostat (obligatory with the 2-way
motorised valve option).

- Amb2 (RTS2) = secondary mixed circuit room temperature
sensor (Ref. 751009) or room thermostat.
In order to obtain optimum comfort levels and to benet from
the extra functions on the appliance (overriding timer settings
from a distant position, optimising the heating cycle...) we
would recommend that you use the room temperature sensor
(Ref. 751009).
For installations with thermostatic mixing valves and a
thermostat or room temperature sensor, the premises where
the thermostat or the room temperature sensor is located must
have radiator(s) equipped with manual valve(s).
The ambience controller must be positioned on an inside wall
of the premises which will be monitored by the appliance.
It should not be positioned on a wall which leads outside on
the other side.
Do not place the ambience controller too near to a window,
curtain or door. Do not install it in an alcove, a cupboard or
behind any kind of wall covering.
Do not place it above a heat source ( e.g. radiator or replace)
or on a wall with a replace behind it.
Do not place it in strong sunlight or powerful lighting.
Fit the sensor 1.50 m above the ground and at least 50 cm away
from neighbouring walls. Insulate the end of the protective
sheath on the electric installation on the side of the appliance to
prevent any drafts that may aect temperature measurement.

To transmit an ambience request to the boiler for
at least 1 heating circuit, set parametre 219 = 1 and
connect the alarm signal to the room temperature
sensor input on the boiler.
- OS = Outdoor sensor
Position the outdoor sensor on the coldest outside wall of the
building (generally the north-facing wall).
It should not be exposed to morning sun.
It is preferable to t the outdoor sensor in the middle of the
building’s facade or heating zone, a minimum of 2.5m above
the ground.
Do not place the outdoor sensor:
• above windows, doors, air outlets or other heat sources
• under balconies or gutters.
In order to avoid errors in measurement due to air circulating,
insulate the end of the electrical sheath at the sensor. Do not
paint the outdoor sensor.
• A contact input or alarm signal output (see markings on
electronics board):
- Contact = 0 /1 input or voltage-free dry contact input. This
input is activated if the contact is open (no current can pass).
The purpose of the contact must be dened by PAR.204 (for
example used to prioritise domestic hot water).
-Alarm = 0 / 1 output or dry contact output. The purpose of the
contact should be dened by PAR.219.
Incompatible with the activation of the stop heating function
(P204 = 1 to 3).
Using the "outdoor temperature deduction" function (PAR.209 =
yes) means that you do not need to connect an outdoor sensor
to the Thorix EVOLUTION in cases where the boiler has an
outdoor sensor and a heating curve. The Thorix EVOLUTION
measures the temperature delivered by the boiler and deducts the
outdoor temperature. This temperature is then used by the Thorix
EVOLUTION as if it came from its own outdoor sensor.
As this function uses both the T boiler and T return sensors it is
necessary to activate them (PAR.229 = yes).
3.4.5 - Using the‘‘outdoor temperature
deduction’’ function
As the ‘‘heat pump de-icing assistance’’ function (PAR.264=yes)
uses both the T boiler and T return it is necessary to activate them
(PAR.229 = yes).
This function may only be activated if circuit 2 (the mixed circuit) is
an underoor circuit which is not controlled by thermostatic mixing
valves or any other external control, but must be controlled by a
room thermostat or room temperature sensor, as in the following

warrants the change in operating mode)
P208 - Heating advance: the heating advance is a learning function
by the clock / timer for any switch in mode from ‘‘Frost
protection’’ or ‘‘Holiday’’ to ‘‘Comfort’’ level.
This function needs an ambient temperature
controller in zone 1 or 2.
The initial heating advance = t0 = 4 hours in the underoor heating
circuit and 45 minutes in modulated radiators, depending on the
outdoor temperature (OT).
Successive heating advance periods are calculated using the
following formula: t2=t1 x (P202 - P203) / (P202 - Text) < 12 hours
P209 - Incompatible with the activation of the stop heating function
(P204 = 1 to 3).
The ‘‘outdoor temperature deduction’’ function means that the
outdoor sensor on the Thorix EVOLUTION does not need to be
connected when the boiler has an outdoor sensor and a heating
curve.The Thorix EVOLUTION measures the temperature delivered
by the boiler and deducts the outdoor temperature from it. This
temperature is then used by the Thorix EVOLUTION as if it came
from its own outdoor sensor.
The automatic summer / winter switch is no longer valid.
The following parametres must be lled in:
P210 - Generator maximum target temperature(GMa TT)
P211 - Generator minimum target temperature(GMiTT)
p212 - Generator maximum outside temperature(GMaOT)
P213 - Generator minimum outside temperature(GMiOT)
You can return to the previous screen without saving any changes

The outside temperature
is deducted from the
temperature read by the
‘‘T chaud’’ sensor, as in the
following example:
The target temperature
for the leaving water from
the 3-way valve is deduced
from the temperature read
by the ‘‘T boiler’’ sensor:
P219 - Purpose of the voltage-free alarm signal:
The voltage-free alarm signal can be used:
- to signal the appearance of an error on the Thorix
EVOLUTION to an external control
- to transmit a heating request to the boiler from at least
one heating circuit. Connect the alarm signal to the room
thermostat input on the boiler.
P229 - Activation of leaving and return ow sensors on the boiler
which are essential for using the following functions:
- P209 = yes = activation of the‘‘outside temperature
deduction’’ function
- P264 = yes = activation of the‘‘heat pump de-icing
assistance’’ function.
The boiler should be left running at all
times to ensure that requests for frost
protection from the Thorix EVOLUTION can be
met. Set the alarm signal to P219 = 1 = ‘‘heating
request’’ and connect the alarm signal to the
boiler’s room thermostat input.

Example of heating curves with the parametres below:
4.6.3.1 - Circuit 2 (mixed) heating curve
4.6.3.2 - Heat pump de-icing assistance
The thermal inertia of the underoor heating circuit is used to serve
as the heat reserve which is needed for the de-icing cycles.
P264 - Yes, possible if P229 = yes = boiler leaving and return water
temperature sensors are activated.
The "heat pump de-icing assistance" function is only possible
when there is an underoor heating circuit on the
mixed circuit controlled by a thermostat or room
temperature sensor (no thermostatic mixing valves).
P265 - Dierence in temperature required to activate the heat pump
de-icing assistance (between 0 and 20°K, with default value
of 2°K).
As soon as the heat pump begins a de-icing cycle it is detected by
the two temperature sensors:
- if T boiler< 25°C and if T boiler < T return – P265 (~ 2°K) or if
T boiler < 18 °C, the 3-way valve opens.
- if T boiler ≥ 25.5°C and if T boiler ≥ T return + P265 (~ 2°K) the
leaving water target tempeature for the 3-way valve becomes
the normal temperature established for the heating again.

4.7 - Adjusting ow rates ("Balancing"
function)
The Circuit 2 (mixed) ow rate should be adapted depending on
its use.
The ow rate is determined depending on the heating capacity and
the dierence in the desired temperature.
1. Operating at a xed speed for the mixed circuit
This is the default operating mode with P250 = 0
The speed can be xed using P260 (max. speed = 100 % by
default).
Note: Max. pressure drop can be xed using P263 (max.
pressure drop = 6m by default).
2. Operating at a constant ow rate for the mixed circuit
Set parametre P250 = 1
The ow rate can be adjusted using P261 (0.4m3/h by default).
Note: Max. pressure drop can be xed using P263 (max.
pressrue drop = 6m by default).
3. Operating with constant pressure losses for mixed circuit
Set parametre P250 = 2
The drop in pressure can be xed using P262 (3m by default).
This function allows the system to operate with constant
pressure drops by varying the circulator pump speed.
Check that all valves and all thermostatic mixing valves are fully
