2.2 Electrical connection
2.2.1 Overview of electrical connections
The controller is equipped with two relays to which loads
can be connected:
• Relays R1 and R2 are electromechanical relays:
R1 and R2 = conductor R1 ... R2
N = neutral conductor N
(common terminal block)
PE = protective conductor PE
(common terminal block)
Depending on the product version, mains cable and sensor
cables are already connected to the device. If that is not the
case, please proceed as follows:
Connect the temperature sensors (S1 to S4) to the
corresponding terminals with either polarity.
Connect the mains cable to the following terminals:
19 = neutral conductor N
20 = conductor L
12 = protective conductor

7. Functions and options
Adjustment of the minimum runtime in minutes.
The minimum time for which the solar system remains swit-
ched on after the switch-on conditions have been fulfilled.
The minimum runtime is not aborted by the maximum pool
temperature limitation.
Adjustment of the minimum break time in minutes.
The period of time for which the solar system remains
switched off after the switch-off condition has been ful-
filled.

Adjustment of the maximum pool temperature in °C.
When the adjusted maximum pool temperature is reached,
the solar system switches off. The circulation function is
not inhibited.

Adjustment of the switch-off difference (TFlow - TPool) for
the solar circuit in Kelvin. The switch-off difference has to
be at least 0.2 K lower than the switch-on difference DTon.
Adjustment of the minimum filter pump runtime in hours.
The filter pump is switched on for this adjusted filtration
period every day.
The filter runtime ends when the adjusted ending time is
reached.
The minimum filter runtime will also be complied with in
the case of a sensor failure.
Example: With a filter runtime of 4 hours, the filter pump
has to be continuously active from 16:00 o‘clock
on in order to reach the adjusted runtime be-
fore the adjusted ending time at 20:00 o‘clock is
reached.

Adjustments/TAbs.max.
Adjustment range: 60 ... 160 °C
Factory setting: 130 °C
Adjustments /DTAbs.max.

Factory setting: 10 K
The absorber maximum limitation inhibits solar loading
from the absorber if the adjusted temperature threshold
(TAbs.max.) is exceeded.
Adjustable switch-on and switch-off hysteresis (DTAbs.max.)
which prevents the controller from switching on and off
again because of very small temperature differences.

Adjustment range: 10 ... 90 °C
Factory setting: 10 °C
Adjustments/DTAbs.min.
Adjustment range: 0.3 ... 10 K
Factory setting: 2.0 K
This function ensures that a solar loading is only effected if
a given absorber temperature is exceeded.
Adjustable switch-on and switch-off hysteresis (DTAbs.min.)
which prevents the controller from switching on and off
again because of very small temperature differences.
Flow maximum limitation
Adjustments/flowmax.
Selection: “Yes”, “No”
Factory setting: “Yes”
Adjustments/Tflowmax.
Adjustment range: 30 ... 100 °C
Factory setting: 40 °C
Adjustment of the flow maximum limitation.
If this function is active, solar loading will be switched off
when the maximum flow temperature is exceeded (scald
protection).

Adjustment range: 0.3 ... 10.0 K
Factory setting: 3.0 K
Experte/Adjustments/DTcooloff
Adjustment range: 0.2 ... 10.0 K
Factory setting: 1.5 K
If the maximum pool temperature is exceeded by a certain
value (DTcool), this function cools the pool by discharging
heat through the absorber. This is only possible if the ab-
sorber is cooler than the pool by the adjusted temperature
difference DTcoolon.
Cooling is switched off when the value DTcooloff is reached
or when Poolmax. is underrun.
The adjustable minimum difference between switch-on and
switch-off temperature (hysteresis) prevents the controller
from switching on and off again due to very small tempera-
ture differences..

8. Error indication A possible failure of the pool-, flow- or absorber sensor will
be indicated on the display. The solar system will be switched
off or, if already off, remain inactive. In the case of a failure
of the outdoor temperature sensor, the system will not be
switched off or kept inactive.
Adjustment of the sensor offset.
A sensor offset can be carried out (-5 K ... +5 K, adjustment

Heat quantity balancing is possible if a flowmeter is used.
The flow rate should be read from the window of the
flow setter at 100 % pump speed and must be adjusted as
flow rate.
Note
For heat quantity balancing, S4 has to be used
for measuring the return temperature (see
chap. 3).

rature sensors, flatscrew sensors, outdoor temperature
sensors, indoor temperature sensors, cylindrical clip-on
sensors and irradiation sensors, also as complete sensors
with immersion sleeves.
