the solar pump is switched on for 15 seconds (solar pump
boost) if the temperature at the collector temperature sensor
has risen by 2 K/hour. This transports the heated solar fluid
to the point of measurement more quickly.

With this function, you can define a temperature
threshold for the calculated collector temperature in the
solar circuit.
If the available solar heat exceeds the current heat demand
(e.g. all cylinders fully charged), the temperature in the col-
lector field may rise steeply. If the protection temperature
set at the collector temperature sensor is exceeded, the
solar pump is switched off to protect the solar circuit (pump,
valves, etc.) against overheating. The solar pump is switched
back on once the system has cooled down (35 K hysteresis).

Purging time

This function supports the purging of the solar circuit.
The controller stops the function once the specified purging
time has elapsed, the solar circuit protection function is act-
ive or the max. cylinder temperature has been exceeded.

Switch-on diff.
–
This function allows you to define a differential value
for starting solar charging. The temperature difference
is measured between the lower cylinder temperature
sensor and the collector temperature sensor.
If the temperature difference exceeds the differential value
set and the minimum collector temperature set, the controller
switches the solar pump on. The solar cylinder is charging.
The differential value can be defined separately for two con-
nected solar cylinders.

–
This function allows you to define a differential value
for stopping solar charging. The temperature difference
is measured between the lower cylinder temperature
sensor and the collector temperature sensor.
If the temperature difference falls below the differential value
that is set, the controller switches the solar pump off. The
solar cylinder is no longer charged. The off temperature dif-
ferential value must be at least 1 K less than the set on tem-
perature differential value.

Maximum temperature
–
This function allows you to define a maximum value as a
limit for the solar cylinder temperature, in order to guar-
antee the highest possible yield from the solar cylinder
heating, but also to ensure protection against calcifica-
tion.
If the maximum temperature set on the bottom cylinder tem-
perature sensor is exceeded, the controller switches the
solar pump off. Solar charging is only enabled again once
the temperature at the bottom cylinder temperature sensor
has fallen by between 1.5 K and 9 K, depending on the max-
imum temperature. The maximum temperature set must not
exceed the maximum permissible cylinder water temperature
of the cylinder that is used.

You can use this function to define a differential value for
starting the temperature difference control, such as solar
heating support.
If the difference between temperature difference sensor 1
and temperature difference sensor 2 exceeds the specified
switch-on differential and the minimum temperature at tem-
perature difference sensor 1, the controller then controls the
temperature difference output. The temperature difference
control starts.
