STEP 9
Enable the device by pressing the key “I” in main display and
confirm it by pressing the key ”F1” (Yes) (green control lamp
beside the key „I” must glow.)
STEP 10
Adjust the pressure maintenance pump(s)
Due to the necessary working pressure the pump(s) must
be adjusted on the output side. This adjustment must be
done because the delivery rate of the pump(s) (acc. to their
characteristic curve) rises at low pressures.
A hint for a necessary adjustment could be:
After pump stop the overflow valve doesn‘t close completely
before approx. 0,5 bar under the upper working pressure.
The setting (1) of the regulating valve(s) must be notated at
the plant- resp. commissioning record.

STEP 11
Set the working pressure.
• Open the shut off devices from/to system return
(expansion pipe, makeup). If a EMAE-1 degassing module
is installed, the ball valve at its intake side must be closed.
Due to the size of the system the setting of the working
pressure can take up a lot of time because the pressure
has to extend into the entire connected system to be
stable for the setting.
• Go to user level 3 (see step 9).
NOTE
The adjustment of the pressure maintenance pump(s)
must be done before the setting of the working
pressure. After this neither the working pressure nor
the adjustment must be changed. If the adjustment
was done subsequently the working pressure must
be set anew.
• Select “settings” “pressure maintenance” “working
pressure”
• The display shows the current settings (complies with the
last set working pressure, e.g. default value ex factory)
CAUTION: Independent to the displayed values the
working pressure must be set again in the course of
commissioning.
• Press the key “F1” (change) to start the pump.
• Set the overflow valve to the upper working pressure
(determined in step 1), the current pressure is shown at
the display. The setting of the setpoint at the overflow
valve via
(a) black hand wheel,
(b) hexagonal nut at the spring cap
(c) set point adjustment
(depends on the used type of the overflow valve).
• Do not confirm the set upper working pressure until the
desired pressure is not stable for a few minutes. (confirm
with “F1” (apply)
• Enter the hysteresis (default value: 0,5 bar). Difference
between the set upper working pressure (set at the
overflow valve) and the start-up pressure of the pump
(=lower working pressure).
• In devices with 2 overflow valves (system Twin), both
valves must be set one by one. One of these valves must
be shut off, at the other one the upper working pressure
can be set. Then the set valve must be shut off and the
other one can be set - repeat the above steps (set both
valves to the same pressure.)
NOTE
In Twin devices only one overflow valve must be in
operation, the other one must be shut off at its intake
side. If both valves are in operation at the same time,
the control behaviour can be influenced negatively
(e.g. too big hysteresis). Therefore this must be avoided.
