1.DESCRIPTION
The
Microsol
BMP Advanced
is a differential thermostat for solar heating with
three sensors and two outputs, which operate in the water circulation pump control and in
thermal support. It is equipped with a clock and an event schedule for economic and
rational use of the thermal support, as well as the exclusive Vacation* function that adds
protection and energy saving to the solar heating system in low hot water consumption
periods.
The controller has functions that avoid overheating and the freezing of the water in the
solar collector. It's equipped with access protection to the parameters settings.
The
Microsol
Advanced
line is characterized by its unique design for use in
residential environments, by the easiness of operation with keys for easy access to the
controller's main resources and by the use of the custom display. The display technology
employed allows presenting in a complete and simple manner the solar heating system's
information, such as: output status, pump operation mode, and sensor position and
temperature.

5.2 SUPPORT HEATING TEMPERATURE (SENSOR T3)
Defines the support operation temperature (T3).
To set this parameter, give a short touch on key
SET
. Use keys or to set value. To
confirm give a short touch on key
SET
and the value will be saved in the controller
memory. This parameter can be
adjusted between the values defined in the advanced
settings for the parameters:
[,F17]
- Minimum value for the support temperature and
[,F18]
- Maximum value for support temperature.
Note:
When the T3 sensor is deactivated in
[,f24]
, the support is controlled by the T2
sensor.
5.3 WATER PUMP OPERATION MODE
For every touch on key the water pump operation mode is switched. The water
circulation pump between the solar collector and the thermal reservoir can operate in three
distinct modes. A description follows:
Obs.:
In the pump mode settings, the controller takes on the new mode 5 seconds after its
selection. This also is the time necessary for the parameter to be stored in its memory.
When the MAN mode is selected (MANUAL), the operation mode remains in this state for the
period defined in function
[,F09]
- Maximum pump time turned in manual mode. After, the
controller takes on the AUT mode (AUTOMATIC). If you wish to return to AUT mode before this
period, press the key at any time.
