User manual
INTRODUCTION
This manual covers the installation of the heat interface unit and the relative applicable instructions. These
must be followed to ensure the proper and trouble-free operation of the heat interface unit. You will also
find general technical details and information about maintenance, any errors occurring and their possible
causes. This document forms part of the heat interface unit and must be kept with the interface unit.
APPLICATION
The interface unit is used in collective heat distribtuion systems. This interface unit is suitable for both
heating and preparing domestic hot water. The water that runs through the different systems connected to
the interface unit needs to meet the water quality standards mentioned in document 53261 “Requirements
on water quality for Heat Interface Units for District Heating systems”. The interface unit needs to suffi ce
with the IWUN guidelines 06283 and 06285 and the NEN2768 standard.
STATUS INDICATION LED LIGHT OF THE INTERFACE UNIT
General
Flashing blue : Interface unit is in hot domestic water position
Flashing red : Interface unit failure
Continuously white (only for heat supplier) : Interface unit is in service mode
No LED : Interface unit off
Interface unit with room thermostat connection cable and with priority
Flashing green slowly (approx. once per second) : Interface unit in rest position; there is no heat demand
and the CH control valve is closed.
Flashing green quickly (approx. twice per second) : Interface unit in CH position; there is heat demand and
the CH control valve is open.
Interface unit without room thermostat connection cable or priority switching
Flashing green slowly (approx. once per second) : Interface unit in rest or CH position.
OPERATION
Central heating system
The interface unit is fitted with a differential pressure regulator that keeps the differential pressure
constant throughout the CH installation. The differential pressure ensures continuous flow of heat from the
district heating network through the CH installation.
Room thermostat connection
A (smart) room thermostat can optionally be connected to the heat interface unit. The interface unit will
then respond to heat demand from the room thermostat. The connection of a room thermostat is not
necessary for the proper operation of the interface unit. A conductor is connected to the thermostat
connection cable ex-works (default). This conductor ensures a closed contact and therefore ensures heat
demand at the interface unit.
Note!
Only (smart) on/off room thermostats can be connected which have a potential-free contact or the
Honeywell round on/off (T87G2014) type thermostat with power-stealing technology. Thermostats without
a potential-free contact and/or not of the on/off type are explicitly not allowed.
Note!
High temperatures of parts in the interface unit, pipework and radiators
The interface unit is designed for district heating networks with water temperatures to 95 ºC. The pipework
and parts in the interface unit as well as pipework and radiators in the CH installation can reach this
temperature. Contact can result in burns.

EcoAdvance Compact
Hot domestic water
The interface unit features a double wall heat exchanger which transfers the heat supplied by the district
heating network to the domestic water supply. Electronic control together with an electronic control valve
and a flow sensor in the interface unit ensure a domestic water temperature of approx. 55 ºC. The interface
unit has a low tapping threshold of 1 l/min.
Ex-works (default) the heat exchanger is continuously kept warm to supply domestic water as quickly
as possible in case of domestic water demand. Keeping warm takes place at a lowered temperature to
minimise energy consumption. By default the interface unit is provided with an anti-Legionella’s disease
function. To prevent Legionella’s disease the heat exchanger is heated once every 24 hours to at least 60 °C
for at least 90 minutes, whereby any Legionella bacteria are made harmless.
Note!
Hot domestic water
The domestic water temperature is controlled at approx. 55 ºC. With a power outage during hot water
tapping the interface unit stops controlling the domestic water temperature. This can result in domestic
water temperatures lower or higher than 55 ºC. Hot domestic water can cause burns.
Priority switching (optional)
The interface unit is available with optional priority switching. With hot water tapping a CH control valve
ensures that the full differential pressure from the district heating network is available for the heating of
domestic water. During hot water tapping the heat supply to the CH circuit is interrupted. After tapping the
heat supply to the CH circuit resumes again. With a power outage during hot water tapping or in a situation
where there is no heat demand from the (connected) room thermostat, the CH control valve remains in the
closed position. This can result in the cooling of the CH installation.
Installation conditions
With the installation of the interface units account must be taken of the current and applicable Buildings
Regulations, safety requirements for CH installations and general instructions for potable water
installations. The interface unit may only be installed by persons accredited in this discipline. Accreditations
are issued by the energy companies and electricity and water companies. The interface unit is only for
use in closed heating systems to a maximum temperature of 95 ºC. The plug must remain accessible after
installation and must be able to be simply removed from the plug socket.
The following conditions must be observed when installing the interface unit:
1. An associated pre-fix bracket of the same make must be used to ensure the proper operation of the
interface unit.
2. A water heater inlet combination (BIC) of 6 bar must be fitted on the cold domestic water inlet side of
the pre-fix bracket.
3. When using a room thermostat, it must be connected to the thermostat cable on the interface unit
if possible (electronic with priority). NOTE: refer to the technical table for permitted types of room
thermostats.
4. If the room thermostat cannot be connected to the heat interface unit but is connected to the district
heating valve, then the district heating valve must be fitted to the CH return pipe as close to the heat
interface unit as possible.
5. The interface unit must be installed in a frost-free space.
6. The interface unit must not be exposed to direct sunlight.
7. Ambient temperature range: +5 ºC to +40 ºC
8. Humidity range: 20% t/m 80%

Maintenance and inspection
For proper operation of the interface unit it is advised to have the following points inspected and
maintained at least once every 24 months on the interface unit. Ask your heat supplier or your installer
about the options for service and inspection. Maintenance and repairs on the interface unit must be carried
out by approved professionals.
• For maintenance and inspection of the interface unit fi rst remove the plug from the plug socket.
• Close the supply and return valve in the district heating network.
• Close the supply and return valve in the central heating system.
• Check the couplings and connections inside and outside the interface unit for leaks. If necessary,
replace the seals and/or tighten the couplings.
• Check the strainer for dirt and clean it if required.
• Check the valves for dirt and clean them if required.
• Check the heat supply for domestic water and CH.
• The jacket can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Under no circumstances use solvents (for example:
cleaning spirit, methylated spirits, etc.)
Note!
The interface unit contains electrical components (24 V direct current). These components are not
splashproof
and must be kept dry at all times.
DURING ABSENCE OR HOLIDAYS
Do not pull the plug out of the plug socket! During (long-lasting) absence or holidays do not switch the
interface unit off and under no circumstances close the radiator valves or the valves of the interface unit
and/or the district heating network. This is to prevent frost damage to the pipework in the district heating
network or home installation. If desired it is possible to lower the radiator position to the frost protection
position (slightly open position) and/or set the room thermostat no lower than 15 °C.
After a period of absence it is recommended to fl ush all water tapping points for at least 2 minutes.
WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU: Product must be disposed of at the end of its working
life in accordance with this directive.
