Description of controller
B.3. - About the controller
The Temperature Difference Controller SR14 facilitates efficient use and function con-
trol of your solar or heating system. The device is impressive most of all for its func-
tionality and simple, self-explanatory operation. For each step in the input process the
individual entry keys are assigned to appropriate functions and explained. The control-
ler menu contains headwords for the measured values and settings, as well as help
texts or clearly-structured graphics.
The SR14 can be used as a temperature difference controller for the various system
variants illustrated and explained under B.5.
Important characteristics of the SR14:
- Depiction of graphics and texts in a lighted display
- Simple viewing of the current measurement values
- 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 changes of settings
- Resetting to factory settings

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

C.1.1
Caution
C.1.2
C.1 Wall installation
Install the controller only in dry areas and under the ambient conditions de-
scribed under 2.1 “Specifications”. Carry out the following steps:
1.Unscrew cover screw completely
2.Carefully pull upper part of housing from
lower part.
3.Set upper part of housing aside, being
sure not to touch the electronics when
doing so.
4. Hold the lower part of the housing
(C.1.2) up to the selected position and
mark the 2 mounting holes. Make sure
that the wall surface is as even as pos-
sible so that the housing does not become
distorted when it is screwed on.
5. Using a drill and size 6 bit, drill 2 holes
at the points marked on the wall and push
in the plugs. Also possible is the installa-
tion with 4 drill holes.
6. Insert the upper screw and screw it in
slightly.
7. Fit the upper part of the housing and
insert the other screws.
8. Align the housing and tighten the
screws.
