Alpha-Thermostat
Alpha-Thermostat Control
AR 20.. C2 (230 V) | AR 40.. C2 (24 V)
The Alpha-Thermostat Control is a digital room thermostat for
the control of surface heating systems with thermal actuators
(e. g. OEM actuator: A 2004 / A 4004).
This thermostat is equipped with microprocessor technology; it
shows excellent PI controlling behaviour with increased regulating
comfort for the user. Temperature pre-selection is in 1/4 degree
steps. The selector switch (switching ball) allows the setting of
the desired operating mode (DAY, NIGHT or AUTOMATIC). The
plug-in digital clock can be removed for programming.
The thermostat must be mounted to the pre-installed Alpha
Mounting Base AS 1000, onto which it can be plugged at any
time and to which it must be electrically connected. In order to
avoid damage to this valuable thermostat during the construction
phase, the system base is not included in the scope of delivery;
it can be ordered already in advance for the necessary electric
installation.

The Alpha-Thermostat 20../40.. C2 is a PI thermostat for the control
of thermoelectric actuators (e. g. OEM actuator). The output voltage
is switched on or off depending on the difference between the
room temperature measured by the thermostat (actual value) and
the desired temperature (set value). The bigger the difference is
between set value and actual value, the longer are the switching
cycles. When the room temperature approaches the set temperature,
the switching cycles of the output voltage are reduced and find
their balance at an almost constant value corresponding to the
heating power for this room.
Selector switch
The desired operating mode can be selected with the selector switch.
The operating modes Normal (sun symbol), Economy (moon
symbol, e. g. for night operation) and Timer (clock symbol) are
available.
Valve protection function (only NC)
If an actuator is not triggered during more than 24 hours of normal
operation, the electronic system switches the actuator for 6 minutes
once every 24 hours. This prevents the thermostat valves from
clogging outside the heating season.
Antifreeze protection
If the set value element of the Alpha-Thermostat is set to the right
stop (symbol
), a room temperature of 5 °C is set as target value
in order to prevent the installation from freezing.
Overcharge protection
The switching output of all Alpha-Thermostats with microprocessor
technology is protected by an internal temperature monitoring
system in order to prevent the system from overcharge damage. In
case of an internal temperature rise due to overcharge the electronic
system automatically disconnects the output until the inside
temperature has dropped again to normal values.
