For example, read control curve C as follows:
CONTROL CURVES
* If the room temperature is always too cool, turn knob
B in the + direction.
* If the room temperature is always too warm, turn
knob B in the - direction.
One step of the scale of knob B changes the outgoing
water temperature by 4°C, corresponding to about 1°C
in the room temperature.
Select a house-specific control curve
with knob A.

Curve C is selected in this example. If the room
temperature goes down when the weather gets cold,
select a steeper curve. If the room temperature goes up,
select a lower curve. A suitable curve for your house may
be between the plotted curves.
If the room temperature is even, but
it is too cool or warm, make a fine
adjustment with knob B.

The OUMAN controller contains a wide range of
control curves that are designed to respond to very
different kinds of heating conditions. It also has low
curves suitable for houses with floor heating.

MIN - MAX - LIMITS
The settings located behind the
instruction booklet under the clear
cover are usually set only when the
controller is taken into use the first time.
The minimum limit knob sets the lowest
allowable outgoing water temperature
(if sufficient heat is available).
The maximum limit knob sets the
highest allowable outgoing water
temperature. This is especially beneficial
in floor heating systems, where overly
hot water may cause damages.

OUMAN automatically adjusts the
temperature of the water entering the
network. The heat requirement varies
according to the outdoor
When the weather gets cooler, OUMAN
releases just enough heat into the network
to maintain an even room
temperature.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The OUMAN 80 can also be used manually. Unplug the
transformer to disconnect the operating voltage. Press
the button on the bottom right all the way down while
turning the valve to the desired position with the manual
control lever.
NOTE ! If you wish to disconnect the controller for a
longer period (e.g., in summer), disconnect the operating
voltage (13 VAC) connector from the controller. The
clock battery will also be disconnected to avoid unnecessary
battery drainage (battery life = about 180 days). The
battery is a backup power supply for the clock and
programming during power shortages.
