The operation of the controller is determined depending on the set parameters 

and the measured temperature of the solar panel and the boiler as follows: 

А)

 

Normal operating modes

 

-  If  the  differential  temperature  (

∆t)

  of  the  solar  panel  (fireplace)  and  the 

boiler is greater than the set point 

∆Т 

+ 2 °C, the pump is switched on and the boiler 

is  heated  from  the  panels.  In  the  process  of  heating  the  boiler, 

∆t

  decreases.  Once 

the actual 

∆t

 is aligned with the set 

∆Т

, at certain intervals, a 

start

 and 

stop

 signal 

from the relay output is sent to the pump. The work and pause intervals depend on 
the  difference  between 

∆Т 

and 

∆t

.  The  smaller  the  difference,  the  longer  the 

interval for pump operation and the smaller the pause. When 

∆t

 becomes equal to or 

less than zero, the pump stops. Adjustment is with a period of 

600s (10 min).

  

- The boiler is heated under the above conditions only until the temperature 

in the boiler is equal to the set 

Tb

set

, after which the pump is switched off and the 

heating is stopped; 

-  If  the  temperature  of  the  panels  (fireplace,  boiler)  falls  below  Tpmin,  the 

pump  operation  is  prohibited,  even  though  the  conditions 

∆t>∆T+2  °C

  and            

Tb<Tb

set

 may be present; 

At  the  temperature  of  the  panels  below 

Тp

def

  and  the  anti-freeze  function 

enabled,  the  pump  is  forced  to  start,  even  though  it  was  switched  off  due  to  the 
temperature drop below 

Тp

min

-  If  in  the  previous  mode  the  temperature  of  the  boiler  becomes  lower  than 

Тb

min

, the pump is switched off by stopping the defrosting of the panels; 

 

В) 

"

Vacation

"

  mode. 

The  mode  is  intended  for  cases  when  no  hot  water  is 

consumed  from  the  boiler  for  a  long  time.  When  activated,  the  set  boiler 
temperature is set to 40 °C. The pump is switched on when necessary to prevent the 

panel from overheating (

Тp

max

). 

Activate/deactivate the mode - by pressing and holding "▄" button for more than 

3 seconds. After releasing the button, an icon         lights up on the display.  

 

C) Emergency modes

 

-  If  during  the  boiler  heating  process  the  temperature  of  the  panels  (fireplace) 

exceeds Tpmax, the pump is forced to cool the panels. This is done even though the 
temperature in the boiler may exceed 

Tb

set

If  in  the  above  emergency  mode  the  temperature  in  the  boiler  reaches  the 

critical  maximum  value 

Тb

max

,

  the  pump  is  switched  off  even  though  this  may 

cause the panels to overheat. Thus the temperature in the boiler is of higher priority; 

-  When  the  temperature  of  the  boiler 

Tb

  is  above  the  set 

Tb

set

  and  when  the 

temperature  of  the  solar  panels 

Tp

  falls  below  the  temperature  of  the  boiler,  the 

pump is switched on until the temperature 

Tb

 drops to the set 

Tbset.

 

This  cooling  can  be  delayed  from  0  to  5  hours.  Sets  using  the  parameter 

t

cool

 

(

tcc

). Default setting is 4 hours.
