Troubleshooting
The electric boiler is operating
irregularly. It increases a few
stages and is then reduced
immediately, etc.
Water flow through the electric boiler too low.
Check that circulation pumps and valves are working.
This is an easy way to get an idea of the level of flow through the boiler:
a. Limit the power stages of the boiler so that the power is constant, for example to one
power stage.
b. Let the boiler's temperature become stable.
c. Measure the temperature increase between the flow and return lines of the boiler.
d. Calculate the flow through the boiler using the formula below.
e. Check against the details on page 7 whether the flow is adequate.

∆
t
=
temperature difference between the boiler's flow and return line in °C.
1.16 =
the water's thermal absorption coefficient.
Tables for temperature sensors
When the resistance of a temperature sensor is measured, it must be disconnected from the circuit board.
For voltage measurement of sensors J12, J13 and J14, there are measurement points on the circuit board at the connections.
The voltage of other temperature sensors is measured in their connection to the terminal block.
