CTC EcoEl operating temperatures
CTC EcoEl operates in the temperature range up to 80°C. When connected with a CTC
heat pump, the operation temperature would be 35-55°C, depending on the current
heating requirement on the supply line. This is completely normal and is monitored
by the control system, which continuously ensures that you are provided with optimal
function
Indoor sensor
You can select “
Indoor sens No
” in the
Installer/Settings menu
. This can be
necessary if the room sensor is poorly positioned, if you have several apartments, if the
floor heating system has a separate room sensor or if you use a fire place or open stove.
The alarm diode on the room sensor functions however as normal.
If you use the fire or open stove only occasionally, the firing can affect the room sen-
sor and reduce the temperature supplied to the radiators. Other rooms in the house can
therefore become cold. The room sensor can temporarily be deselected during firing.
EcoEl then provides heating to the radiators using the set heating curve.
The radiator thermostats reduce the heating supplied to the section of the house in
which you are using wood firing.
Where there is a fault on the Outdoor sensor/indoor
sensor
If a fault occurs on the outdoor sensor, an outdoor temperature of –5°C is simulated so
that the house does not become cold. The alarm is triggered.
If a fault occurs on a room sensor, EcoEl automatically switches to operation using
the set graph. The alarm is triggered.
Summer basement heating
Background heating is often wanted in basements/recreation rooms/bathrooms in the
summer months, to avoid damp air. Your EcoEl can provide this by you setting a “mini-
mum permitted supply line temperature” at a suitable temperature (15–65°C).
See the
Installer/Settings/Setting house paramt
This means that the temperature of the water supplied to the radiators does not fall
below a selected temperature, for e27°C.
Functioning radiator thermostats or shut off valves in the rest of the house are re-
quired to achieve this. These shut off heating to the rest of the property. The function
can also be used for bathroom floor heating, for summer floor heating.
