the micromat boiler appliance

Functions of the Control Panel Buttons and Dials
Reset Button

This button has two functions

1. Resetting of fault conditions: - When the display text is flashing on and off, a boiler fault is indicated. The 

type of fault is displayed on the screen.  Please refer to the fault finding section on page 52 for a description
of these faults. The boiler control is reset by pressing the Reset button once.

2. Inspection of boiler operating parameters:-  When the display is not flashing (ie when the boiler is in normal

operation), the Reset button may be used to inspect the boiler operating parameters.

Press once - Display shows “T1 Fl1 --

°

C”   -  This is the flow water temperature from heat exchanger 1.

Press twice - Display shows “T3 Fl2 --

°

C“ -  This is the flow water temperature from heat exchanger 2.

Press three times - Display shows “T3 Ret --C”  - This is the return water temperature to the boiler.
Press four times - Display shows “T5 Sto --

°

C”  - This is the Domestic hot water storage temperature.  A temperature

is shown only if the hot water temperature sensor (RVR Stock no: SBA021) is connected.
Press five times - Display shows “Fan Sp 1 ---- RPM”  - This is the burner blower speed for heat exchanger 1.
Press six times - Display shows “Fan Sp 2 ---- RPM”  - This is the burner blower speed for heat exchanger 2.
Press seven times - Display shows “Pump 1 --%”  - This is the speed of the circulation pump as a percentage of
it’s maximum speed.
Press an eighth time and the display returns to normal displaying the supply water temperature.

Engineers Button

The user will not normally need to use this button.  It is used by the service technician to enable measurement of
flue emissions even without heat requirement being present.

NOTE: This function will not be available if the MICROMAT EC and the heating system have reached their maximum
temperatures.

If the Engineers button is pressed once then the MICROMAT EC operates with half power. The display shows [Flue
Emissi]. If the Engineers button is not pressed again within 10 minutes the MICROMAT EC will switch back to
automatic operation after this period. Pressing the button again when [Flue-Emissi] is displayed brings [10min Low]
onto the display. In this condition the power output of the boiler can be adjusted using the green potentiometer
between 11kW and 57kW (EC62H) and 14kW and 72kW (E76H)

Turning it to the right : Less Power

Turning it to the left: More Power

Pressing the Engineers button again while [10 min. low] is shown in the display switches the MICROMAT EC back
to automatic operation. After 10 minutes partial output the MICROMAT EC will return to automatic operation

TEST Button

The Test button is used to simulate the function of the hot water High Limit Stat.

Whilst theTEST-button is pressed the display shows [Limit F/R]. During this display the function of the MICROMAT
EC is blocked.  When the button is released the boiler will return to normal operation.

If the button is pressed for more than 3 minutes  [Wat 1 Lockout] will blink on the display.  The function of the
MICROMAT EC is then locked.

The MICROMAT EC can also be locked by simultaneously pressing the TEST and ENGINEERS button.

When the RESET button is pressed again the MICROMAT EC returns to automatic operation.

ECO and ECO PLUS Operation

In ECO PLUS mode the pumps in the MICROMAT EC maintain a temperature differential of 20K (10K with underfloor
heating) if the system design allows this. This ensures the most effective use of energy.

In ECO mode the temperature differential is only regulated if the return temperature exceeds  50

°

C. With lower

temperatures the pumps work at full speed. This also ensures the maximum heat dissipation. The ECO mode setting
is recommended if individual rooms do not get warm enough and hydraulic balancing is not possible.

Green Potentiometer

The green potentiometer is used to adjust the Domestic hot water storage temperature, if the boiler has been
configured for this.  See page 48 for more information.

Red and Blue potentiometers

These are used to alter the weather compensation settings. See page 45 for more information.
