1. Description
The DH E RS /BW non programmable digital thermostat can
be used to control heating floors with electrical current − with
a resistive load − ranging from 0 A to 16 A at 120/208/240
VAC. It has an easy user interface. It keeps the temperature
of a room (
mode) and a floor (
mode) at a requested
set point with a high degree of accuracy.
Floor Mode
(factory setting)
This control method is ideal in areas where you want a warm
floor at any time and when the temperature of the ambient
air can be high without causing discomfort. For example, in
a bathroom.
Ambient Mode
/
(you only have to press down the
A/F button to switch from one mode to the other)
This control method is ideal when you want a stable ambient
air temperature (without fluctuation). Usually, this mode is
used in large and often occupied rooms where temperature
variations can be uncomfortable. For example, in a kitchen, a
living room or a bedroom.
Some factors cause variations in ambient air temperature.
They include large windows (heat losses or gains due to
outside temperature) and other heat sources such as a
central heating system, a fireplace, etc. In all these cases,
the
mode will ensure a uniform temperature.
This thermostat is not compatible with the following
installations:
• electrical current higher than 16 A with a resistive load
(3840 W @ 240 VAC, 3330 W @ 208 VAC and 1920 W @
120 VAC);
• inductive load (presence of a contactor or relay); and
• central heating system.
