Pump starts for a short time and switches off, and then switches on again, etc.
Temperature difference at the controller
too small?
No
Yes
Change
ΔTon
and

function with you controller?
Mount the collector sensor at
solar flow (warmest collector
output); use immersion sleeve
of the respective collector.
Wrong position of collector sensors?
No
Yes

(e. g. flat screw sensor instead of sensor
in immersion sleeves).
