5 Operating the air heater
5.1 Minimum operating time
The heater will always run for a minimum of 30 seconds,
even if the heat demand stops. With an MTC thermostat
this minimum time is 10 seconds. This is to avoid large
amount of starts and stops.
After this, the fan will run for 2 - 3 minutes to cool down,
depending on the temperature.
When the cooling time has passed, a new heat request will
be granted.
5.2 Delta-T-regulation
The air heater can function as a de-stratification fan. This
is called delta-T regulation and it is done via the Smart
Controller, with a temperate measurement sensor that is
located on the air heater.
The system fan is activated when the temperature-
dierence between the sensor on the heater (the delta-T
NTC sensor) and the sensor in the Smart Controller is bigger
than 8oC (standard factory setting). This procedure ensures
an even distribution of temperature throughout the building,
thus acting as a fully automatic de-stratification fan.
5.2.1 Switch o delta-T-regulation
Delta-T regulation can be switched o when it is not desired
(e.g. when it causes discomfort). This can be done in the
Settings menu on the Smart Controller. See the user manual
of the special Smart Controller for more information.
NOTICE Delta-T regulation is automatically switched
o when the delta-T sensor (sensor terminal J6) is
disconnected.
5.3 Summer ventilation
The fan can be set to run in the summer. Follow the instructions
in the user manual of the Smart Controller.
5.4 Overheating protection
The air heater's heat exchanger is protected from
excessive temperatures.
5.4.1 Heat exchanger
An NTC sensor is located near (or on) the heat exchanger.
This sensor monitors the heat exchanger temperature.
If the heat exchanger becomes too hot, this sensor will
cause the heating process to stop. Depending on the
temperature, the air heater performs the following actions:
• Step 1: Power reduction (when possible).
• Step 2: Burner stop, followed by an automatic
restart when cooled down (thermostat display).
• Step 3: Burner stop, followed by a Lock Out. A
manual reset is required. (thermostat display).
NOTICE A manual reset can be done on the electronic
circuit board or remotely with the special room thermostat.
