4. Function
With the Homematic IP Valve Drive – motorised you can control the valve po-
sition and thus regulate the water flow rate to regulate the room temperature.
The valve has to be operated in connection with a Homematic IP Floor Heat-
ing Actuator – 12 channels, motorised (HmIP-FALMOT-C12).
5. Installation
The valve drive can be installed in any position (e.g. upside down).
For installation, no tools are required.
To install the valve drive, proceed as follows:
• Make sure if the valve drive fits to the thread size M30 x 1.5 mm. We rec-
ommend to use the valve template available for download in the download
area of www.eQ-3.com. If the valve drive differs, you will need a corre-
sponding adapter.
• Attach the supplied valve adapter (VA 80) to the valve.
• Attach the valve drive to the adapter. Make sure that the valve drive engages
properly.
To disassemble the device press the catch and remove the valve drive
from the adapter.
6. Connection to the floor heating actuator
For the regulation of the room temperature, the valve drive must be con-
nected directly to the Homematic IP Floor Heating Actuator – 12 channels,
motorised (HmIP-FALMOT-C12). To do this, please proceed as follows:
• Connect the connecting cable of the valve drive to the clamp terminals of
the floor heating actuator.
7. Maintenance and cleaning
The product does not require any maintenance. Enlist the help of an
expert to carry out any repairs.
Clean the device using a soft, lint-free cloth that is clean and dry. Do not use
