Limit and protective functions
9.8.1 Frost
protection
Here, the setting is made whether or not function “Frost protection for the plant” shall
act on the pump for precontrol.
For more detailed information about frost protection for the plant, refer to section 5.4
“Pump overrun and mixing valve overrun”.
Function “Frost protection for the plant“ is only available if an outside sensor is installed
(locally or connected via KNX bus). The function can be deactivated.
The minimum flow temperature is monitored. If the flow temperature falls below 5 °C, a
heat demand signal is sent to the heat source and the mixing valve opens. The function
will be ended as soon as the flow temperature has risen to 7 °C. The function will be
active for a minimum of 5 minutes.
9.8.2 Limitations
This setting provides maximum limitation of the flow temperature setpoint.
This setting provides minimum limitation of the flow temperature setpoint. Minimum
limitation is only active when there is demand for heat.
Using setting --- (none), the function can be deactivated.
This function is only available with primary controller type 1. The rate of increase of the
flow temperature setpoint can be limited to a maximum (heating up brake). In that case,
the maximum rate of increase of the flow temperature setpoint is the selected tempera-
ture per unit of time (K per hour).
Purpose of heating up brake:
•
Preventing cracking noises in the pipework
•
Preventing excessive loads on heat generating equipment
Setting --- deactivates the function.

Refer to subsection 9.8.3 “Limitation of the return temperature”.
With setting “System pump locking signal“, it can be parameterized whether or not the
system pump shall respond to critical locking signals.
