Tech III. Main menu III.a) Valve 1 In this submenu the user may adjust the basic settings of the first valve. III.a.1) Set temperature This option is used to set the desired temperature which will be maintained by the first valve. The temperature may be adjusted in the main screen, when Temp 1 is active.

III.b) Valve 2 In this submenu the user adjusts the basic parameters of the second valve similarly as in the case of valve 1. III.c) DHW pump (of the water boiler) This function enables the user to adjust the parameters of DHW pump operation.

Tech III.c.4)DHW pump activation threshold This option is used to set the temperature of DHW pump activation (it is the temperature measured by the CH boiler sensor). When the temperature remains below this value, the pump is inactive, whereas when the temperature is above this value, the pump is switched on and works until the set temperature is reached.

ST-408N – user's manual III.d) Operation modes In this function the user may choose one of the three operation modes available. III.d.1) Water boiler priority In this mode, the DHW pump is activated first and it operates until the set DHW temperature is reached (the valves close completely and the valve pumps are switched off).
Page 9
Tech III.e) Manual mode When the manual mode option is selected, the user can open and close the valves (and the auxiliary valves if they are active) manually. It is also possible to switch on/off each valve pump, DHW pump, circulating pump as well as the additional contacts in order to check if the device works properly.

ST-408N – user's manual IV.d.3) Single stroke This is a maximum single stroke (opening or closing) that the valve may make during one temperature sampling. If it is near the preset temperature, the stroke is calculated on the basis of PROP_COEFF parameter value. The smaller the single stroke, the more precisely the set temperature can be achieved.

Activation of this regulator enables the user to view the current temperature of the CH boiler, water boiler and the valves. This regulator should be plugged to RJ (telephone-type) socket of the ST-408N controller using a four-core cable with appropriate pins (to the socket at the back of the controller) Standard regulator 1, 2 and 3 ➔...

This setting determines by how many degrees the valve temperature is to increase decrease with a single unit change in room temperature (see: Room temperature difference) This function is active only with TECH room regulator and it is closely related to the Room temperature difference parameter. IV.d.9) Room temperature difference.

Tech temperature. IV.d.11) Proportionality coefficient Proportionality coefficient is used for defining valve stroke. The closer the preset temperature, the smaller the stroke. If the coefficient value is high, the valve will take less time to open but at the same time the opening degree will be less accurate.

ST-408N – user's manual The protection against too high return temperature serves to prevent the hazardous growth in CH boiler temperature. The user sets the maximum acceptable return temperature. In the case of the hazardous growth in temperature, the valve begins to open to house installation in order to cool the CH boiler down.
