- Frost protection: The pumps are switched on on the
basis of outside temperature irrespective of demand
for heat.
If outside temperature drops below -4°C the pumps
are switched on. If outside temperature is between -5°
and 1.5°C, the pumps are switched on for 10 minutes
at intervals of 6 hours. If outside temperature is above
1.5°C the pumps are switched off.
- Chimney sweep: The burner is ignited to obtain
the conditions necessary for combustion analysis.
To obtain continuous burner functioning, maximum
operating temperature is set at the boiler’s maximum
setpoint.
All loads are switched off to start with, in order to bring
the boiler to its 64°C setpoint as quickly as possible.
When the boiler reaches 64°C, the heating circuits are
opened one by one to dissipate the heat and allow the
burner to continue functioning.
- Limit thermostat (parameter 2310): This function shuts
the burner down if boiler temperature exceeds the
maximum permitted limit, which coincides with the boi-
ler’s maximum setpoint (parameter 2212 = 80 °C).
- DHW charging priority: if an optional remote storage
cylinder is installed and domestic hot water is drawn
off while the central heating circuit is also in use, this
function directs boiler power mainly to the DHW circuit.
- Boiler switching differential: This establishes a mini-
mum run time for the burner, to stop it igniting and
shutting down repeatedly. The burner shuts down
only if boiler temperature exceeds a predetermined
threshold (parameter 2240).
- Solar collector protection:
- Collector frost protection (param. 3840)
- Collector overtemperature protection (param. 3850)
- Pump protection against vapour in heat transfer fluid
(param. 3860)
