Pre-wired Uponor Smatrix Controls including
Autobalancing function
Smatrix is a fully equipped control system for radiant heating
and cooling with supply temperature control as function of room
temperature.
The unique Autobalancing technology eliminates the need for manual
balancing of the loops. The smart system accurately determines and
controls the exact energy needed for an optimal room temperature.
The result is a high comfort of underfloor heating and cooling by
reduced energy consumption.
While the manual hydraulic balancing only takes account on initial
conditions, the Autobalancing function automatically adjusts the
temperature changes in the system or room, without any need for
complex recalculation or adjustment by installer.

Installation or connection of the Uponor Vario
thermal actuators
Uponor Vario 230V / 24V thermo drives are thermoelectric actuators
for opening and closing valves on heating circuit distributors of surface
heating systems. The thermo drives are connected to the flow valves
via an adapter VA 10 with M30 x 1.5 thread.

with M30 x 1,5
The drive is in the delivery state by the first-open function without
current geöff net. As a result, a heating operation in the shell
phase is possible. During commissioning, the first open function is
automatically unlocked by applying the operating voltage and the drive
is ready for operation.
Attention!
Electric shock! Electrical connections to the 230 V power
supply may only be used by authorized professionals be
made.

Hydraulic adjustment of the Uponor Comfort
Ports with each other by means of a line valve
Depending on the configuration, the ports can be equipped with an
automatic line valve (differential pressure regulator), especially in
larger heating networks with several Uponor Comfort ports. It can be
used to limit the flow of the entire distributor.
During commissioning, the string valve is set to the particular
differential pressure setpoint of the distributor installed in the Comfort
Port.
Detailed information on hydraulic balancing can be found in the
enclosed installation and operating instructions of the string valve.
