Scheduled mode
In scheduled mode ( ), the DHW tank produces hot water
corresponding to a schedule. The best time to allow the tank to
produce hot water is at night, because:
▪ The space heating demand is lower
▪ Electricity tariffs are lower
Example:

▪ Initially, the DHW tank temperature is the same as the
temperature of the domestic water entering the DHW tank
(example:
15°C
).
▪ At 00:00 the DHW tank is programmed to heat up the water to a
preset value (example: Storage comfort
= 60°C
).
▪ During the morning, you consume hot water and the DHW tank
temperature decreases. As long as the DHW tank temperature
stays above
40°C
, hot water is available.
▪ At 14:00 the DHW tank is programmed to heat up the water to a
preset value (example: Storage eco =
50°C
). Hot water is
available again.
▪ During the afternoon and evening, you consume hot water again
and the DHW tank temperature decreases again.
▪ At 00:00 the next day, the cycle repeats.

to determine when to turn ON and OFF the pump.
When turned ON, the pump runs and makes sure
hot water is instantly available at the tap. To save
energy, only turn ON the pump during periods of
the day when instant hot water is necessary.

Sch reheat mode
In sch reheat mode ( ), the domestic hot water control is
the same as in scheduled mode. However, when the DHW tank
temperature drops below a preset value (=Reheat; example: 45°C),
the DHW tank heats up until it reaches this preset value. This
ensures that a minimum amount of hot water is available at all times.
