1.30 CIRCULATION PUMP.
The boilers are supplied with various circulator
pumps, all equipped with a speed regulator.
These settings are suitable for most systems.
NOTE.:
the ∆T can be controlled compatibly
with the characteristics of the central heating
system and of the boiler.
•
Boiler circulator pump.
The boilers are sup-
plied with a variable speed circulator pump.
When the boiler operates in heating mode, the
pump speed is defined according to the “P57”
parameter setting in the M5 menu (Par. 3.9), in
domestic hot water mode the circulator pump
always runs at maximum speed.
During the heating stage the Auto and Fixed
operating modes are available.
-
Auto:
automatic circulator speed. In this mode
one can choose between the “Proportional
head” and “Constant ∆T” option.
-
Proportional head (
∆
T = 0):
the circulator
speed varies according to the power emit-
ted by the burner, the greater the power the
greater the speed. Within the parameter one
can also adjust the pump operating range,
by setting the maximum speed (adjustable
from 100 %
÷
30 %) and the minimum speed
(adjustable from 30% to the max. set speed).
-
∆T Constant (∆T = 5 ÷ 25 K):
the pump
speed varies to maintain the ∆T constant
between the system flow and return accord-
ing to set value K. Within the parameter one
can also adjust the pump operating range,
by setting the maximum speed (adjustable
from 100 %
÷
30 %) and the minimum speed
(adjustable from 30% to the max. set speed).
-
Fixed (100 % ÷ 30 %):
in this mode the pump
operates at constant speed, the operating range
is defined between minimum (30 %) and maxi-
mum (100 %).
Pump release.
If, after a prolonged period of
inactivity, the circulation pump is blocked,
unscrew the front cap and turn the motor shaft
using a screwdriver. Take great care during this
operation to avoid damage to the motor.
•
Heating / cooling and solar circuit system
circulators.
The circulators are equipped with
electronic control that allows to set advanced
functions.. For proper operation one must
select the most suitable type of operation for
the system and select a speed in the available
range.
- The heating / cooling system circulators (Fig.
1-26A) control the room heating or cooling
requests downstream of the hydraulic mani-
fold.
- The solar circulator (Fig. 1-26B) manages the
requests of the solar system.
- Constant head (ΔP C) (4 fig. 1-26A).
The
circulator pump maintains the pressure level
(head) constant as the system heat demand
decreases (flow rate reduction). With these
settings, the circulator pump is suitable for
all floor systems where all the circuits must
be balanced for the same drop in head. One
can select the power level from a minimum
one to a maximum one by turning the selector
switch clockwise in the relative power scale.
- Proportional head (ΔP V) (3 fig. 1-26A-B).
This allows the pressure level (head) to be
proportionally reduced as the system heat
demand decreases (flow rate reduction).
Thanks to this function, the electric power
consumption of the circulator pump is re-
duced further: the energy (power) used by
the pump decreases according to the pressure
level and flow rate. With this setting, the
pump guarantees optimal performance in
most heating systems, proving particularly
suitable in single-pipe and two-pipe installa-
tions. Any noise of the water flow in the pipes,
valves and radiators is eliminated by reducing
the head. Optimal conditions for thermal
comfort and acoustic well-being. One can se-
lect the power level from a minimum one to a
maximum one by turning the selector switch
counterclockwise on the relative power scale.
- Fixed (6 Fig. 1-26B).
In this mode the pump
operates at constant speed, the operating
range is defined between minimum (I) and
maximum (III).
Adjustments.
Turn the selector and set it on
the desired curve to adjust the circulator pump.
Automatic vent function (1 fig. 1-26A).
The
circulator pump is equipped with a function
that activates its operation for 10 minutes,
alternating the speed between minimum and
maximum, so that the air contained in the cir-
culator pump is expelled by the air vent valve.
Diagnostics in real time:
a light ring (2 fig.
1-26A-B) supplies, with different colours,
information relating to the circulator pump
operating status, see table below.
