Master with Display - Type REH FC-BMS3/BA3
Introduction
Type REH BA3 masters are preset and
need no adjustment. See“Master factory
settings”.
REH BA3 REH FC-BM3
Using clock thermostat
(REH CT3):
Type REH FC-BMS3 masters are equipped
with graphic display to enable simple
programming and unit operation to
be achieved using simple and easily
understood icons and symbols.
BR1025A02a BR1025A03a
If a room controller is used for area control of one room or a group of rooms, all the room sensors within this zone
will operate according to the temperatures and times dened in the room controller. However, the local room sen-
sors within the group can still be adjusted ±4°C, allowing some rooms to be set higher or lower than others. Which
room sensors form part of the room controller's group is decided by programming the room controller (see REH
CT3 instructions). Any room sensors that are not part of the room controller's group will operate according to the
temperature dened in the master, although local adjustment of ±4°C will still be possible.
NOTE: The REH CT3 is ignored in cooling mode and the master's settings are used.
Using external switch
for night setback
The day temperature setpoint is defaulted to the factory setting of 21°C and the night temperature to the factory
setting of 18°C. These default settings can be changed on the REH FC-BMS3 master.
The current operating setpoint of the master can be forced into night temperature by connecting a separate
timing device to the master. When the external switch or timer is used to switch to night setback, this overrides any
time settings in a REH CT3 room controller, including any room sensors that are part of a group allocated to that
room controller.
NOTE: In cooling mode, the night setpoint is calculated as day temperature +3°C.

Press the OK ( ) button and then the UP (△) or DOWN (▽) button to adjust the setpoint.
Night temperature When activated via an external timer, this temperature applies for all room sensors connected to the master.
Night setback can also be activated on individual room sensors (REH TM3 & REH TD3) by setting the selector switch
to“NIGHT”position. A room controller (REH CT3) will automatically switch to night setback at the programmed
times, as will all other room sensors included in its group.
OFF temperature Room sensors with a selector switch (REH TM3 & REH TD3) can be set to“OFF”position. This position is used for frost
protection. If the temperature in the room drops to the OFF temperature setting (factory setting 5°C), heating will
be activated to prevent frost damage. The 5°C setting can be changed in the master module.

Supply water temperature control
Using the supply water sensor
to limit supply water temperature:
Using the outdoor compensation module for weather compensation
When an outdoor compensation module (WLOC3) is connected to the system, the master calculates the correct supply water temperature
taking into account the heat losses that vary with outdoor temperature as well as the room temperature requirements of the system. For
example, on a day when outdoor temperature is 12°C, it is possible to run the heating system with a supply water temperature of only 35˚C.
This ensures economical boiler operation and comfortable room conditions throughout the year. The maximum permissible supply water
temperature prevents excessive water temperatures if outdoor temperature becomes extremely cold, e.g. -30°C.
Master with Display - Type REH FC-BMS3/BA3
A limit sensor must be used with the REH FC-BMS3, but can be used without an outdoor compensation module
(WLOC3. In this case, the master will control the temperature of the supply water owing into the system via a 3- or
4-port mixing valve and actuator.
