2.2 About the controller
The Temperature Difference Controller TDC 4 facilitates efcient use and
function control of your solar or heating system. The device is impressive
most of all for its functionality and simple, almost self-explanatory operation.
For each step in the input process the individual entry keys are assigned to
appropriate functions and explained. The controller menu contains headwords
for the measured values and settings, as well as help texts or clearly-structured
graphics.
The TDC 4 can be used as a temperature difference controller for the various
system variants illustrated and explained under 2.5.
Important characteristics of the TDC 4:
- Depiction of graphics and texts in a lighted display
- Simple viewing of the current measurement values
- Heat metering
- Analysis and monitoring of the system by means of statistical graphics,etc.
- Extensive setting menus with explanations
- Menu block can be activated to prevent unintentional setting changes
- Resetting to previously selected values or factory settings
- A wide range of additional functions are available

The following illustrations should be viewed only as schematic
diagrams showing the respective hydraulic systems, and do not
claim to be complete. The controller does not replace safety de-
vices under any circumstances.
Depending on the specic application, additional system components and
safety components may be mandatory, such as check valves, non-return
valves, safety temperature limiters, scalding protectors, etc., and must
therefore be provided.

Caution
Install the controller only in dry areas and under the ambient condi-
tions described under 2.1 “Specications”. Carry out the following
steps 1-8.
A
Fig. 3.1.1
Fig. 3.1.2
1. Unscrew cover screw completely
2. Carefully pull upper part of hou-
sing from lower part.
3. Set upper part of housing aside,
being sure not to touch the elect-
ronics when doing so.
4. Hold the lower part of the hou-
sing up to the selected position
and mark the 3 mounting holes.
Make sure that the wall surface
is as even as possible so that
the housing does not become
distorted when it is screwed on.
5.Using a drill and size 6 bit, drill 3
holes at the points marked on the
wall and push in the plugs
6. Insert the upper screw and screw
it in slightly.
7. Fit the upper part of the housing
and insert the other two screws.
8. Align the housing and tighten the
three screws.

3.2 Electrical connection
Before working on the unit, switch off the power supply and secure
it against being switched on again! Check for the absence of power!
Electrical connections may only be made by a specialist and in
compliance with the applicable regulations.
Do not use the controller if the housing shows visible damage.
Caution
Danger
Low-voltage cables such as temperature sensor cables must be
routed separately from mains voltage cables.
Feed temperature sensor cables only into the left-hand side of the
unit, and mains voltage cables only into the right-hand side.
Caution
Caution
Fig. 3.2.1
Caution
The customer must provide an all-pole disconnecting device, e.g.
a heating emergency switch.
The cables being connected to the unit must not be stripped by
more than 55mm, and the cable jacket must reach into the housing
just to the other side of the strain relief.
Relay R1 is only suitable for standard pumps (20-120VA) which
are speed-controlled viathe controller. The internal wiring of the
controller is such that residual currents ow over relay R1 even in
the rest condition. Therefore under no circumstances may valves,
contactors or other consumers with low power consumption be
operated on this output.
1. Select necessary program/
hydraulics (Fig. 3.2.2-3.2.16)
2. Open controller as described
under 3.1.
3. Strip cables by 55mmmax., insert,
t the strain relief devices, strip
the last 8-9mm of the wires.(Fig.
3.2.1)
4. Open the terminals using a suitable
screwdriver (Fig. 3.2.1) and make
electrical connections on the con-
troller (Pages 10-17)
5. Ret upper part of housing and fas-
ten with screw.
6. Switch on mains voltage and place-
controller in operation.

advice
To prevent damage to the Vortex ow
sensor it is strongly recommended to
install the sensor in the return! (see also
12.7 heat metering)
The VFS has to be installed in the cor-
rect ow direction!
