5 Use and operation
The desired heating circuit required flow temperature
in heating mode is set for an outside temperature of -
15°C
7
and +15°C
8
. Between these outside tem-
peratures, the required flow temperature is calculated
from the characteristics of the heating curve (inter-
polated).
Example for calculation of required flow tem-
perature
(see the following illustration):
Flow temperature at outside temperature of -15°C =
45°C
Flow temperature at outside temperature of +15°C =
22°C
Current outside temperature = -5°C
In the heating circuit operating mode
Heating mode,
the following applies:
> The calculated required flow temperature (
Pos.9
) is
37.4°C
> The heating circuit is supplied with 37.4°C.
In the heating circuit operating mode
Reduced mode,
the following applies:
Reduction = 10°C
> The calculated required flow temperature (
Pos.10
)
is 27.0°C
> The heating circuit is supplied with 27.0°C.

i
Note the currently set temperatures before
you change the values.
A change in heating curve cannot be felt immediately.
Instead, this depends largely on the kind of heat dis-
tribution system (e.g. underfloor heating) and the buil-
ding standard (brick, lightweight construction etc.). It
is advisable to adjust the heating curve in small incre-
ments (+/- 2°C) with corresponding pauses (1 to 2
days). Depending on the current outside tem-
perature, different adjustments need to be made.

3-point heating curve
i
Function must be activated by qualified per-
sonnel.
Depending on the standard of building and insulation,
it is advisable to change over from the 2-point to a 3-
point heating curve. In contrast to the 2-point heating
curve, it is possible to stipulate a third temperature
11
, i.e. the heating curve can include a sharp deflec-
tion or bend.
