User manual Declaration of Conformity No. 60/2010 Hereby, we declare under sole responsibility that the ST-480 230V 50Hz thermoregulator manufactured TECH, headquartered in Wieprz 1047A, 34-122 Wieprz, is compliant with the Regulation by the Ministry of Economy. (Journal of Laws Dz.U. 155 Item 1089) of July 21, 2007 implementing provisions of the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EC of January 16, 2007.
TECH shall not be held liable for wrong adjustment of the controller. The EL480zPID controller is a unit with a continuous output signal using a modified PID control algorithm. In this type of controller the blowing power is calculated by measuring the boiler temperature and the flue gas temperature as measured at the outlet of the boiler.
EL480zPID and the same controller without PID control: Basic terms Operation– once activated the controllers enters the operation mode and a "WORKING" message appears on the display. It is the basic state of the controller where the blower is operating continuously and the feeder operation time is set by the user (both operation time and pause time can be set).
User manual by pressing the knob. Similar procedure is followed when changing the parameters. In order for the changes to be input they need to be confirmed by pressing the pulser after the "CONFIRM" message appears. If the user does not intend to make any changes in a function the pulser should be pressed after the "CANCEL"...
EL480zPID II.d) Preset temperature of hot domestic water The option is used to set the temperature of hot domestic water. The temperature is adjustable within the range between 40°C and 75°C. II.e) Manual operation For your convenience the controller is equipped with a Manual operation module. When this...
User manual II.f.1) House heating When you select this option the controller switches over to a mode where heating is provided only to heat the central heating circuit. The central heating pump begins to run above the pump activation temperature (factory set at 38 C - see Section III.g).
EL480zPID II.f.4) Summer mode Once this function is activated the central heating pump will be off and the DHW pump will turn on above the preset activation temperature (see Section III.h) and will work continuously until the temperature drops below the activation temperature by the hot water hysteresis value or until the following conditions are met: (boiler temperature) + 2°C ≤...
EL480zPID II.l) Information about the programme This function allows the user to check the controller programme version. III. Installation menu The functions of the installation menu should be set by the person installing the boiler or service personnel of the manufacturer.
User manual III.d Main valve III.a.1 Switch on This feature allows you to temporarily make the valve inactive. III.a.2) Set-point valve temperature This setting is used to set the circuit temperature to be maintained by the mixing valve. This is the main temperature based on which the room thermostat reduction function is to be run (see Section III.a.10).
EL480zPID III.a.5) Single step You can use this function to set a percentage value for a single step in the operation of valve opening, that is to say the maximum percentage value of opening or closing that the valve can move in a single step (maximum movement of the valve in one measurement cycle).
User manual The more points there are available for constructing the curve, the greater is its accuracy, which allows you to determine its shape in a flexible way. In our case, four points seem to be a very good compromise between accuracy and ease of setting its shape. Where in our controller: = -20ºC, = 0ºC,...
EL480zPID NOTE: If the installation includes a TECH room thermostat with RS communication (four-wire cable), you may choose an option providing dynamic control for the mixing valve (see Section III.a.11) III.a.11) Operation of TECH thermostat This setting is active only if the controller is connected with a TECH room thermostat (with RS...
User manual III.b) Valve 1 NOTE: Control with an additional valve (1 or 2) is only possible after you purchase and connect the controller to an additional control module (ST-61), which is not provided as standard equipment with the controller. In order to control two valves you need to connect two ST-61 modules.
EL480zPID III.b.7) Single step (Setting as for the main valve – see Section III.a.5). III.b.8) Minimum opening (Setting as for the main valve – see Section III.a.6). III.b.9) Type of valve (Setting as for the main valve – see Section III.a.7).
User manual III.b.17) About the program When this option is selected the display will show the software version of the active valve module. III.c)Valve 2 All settings for valve 2 are made in the same way as in the case of valve 1. III.d) GSM module NOTE: Controlling of this type is possible after purchasing and connecting, to the controller, the additional control module ST-65 which is not attached to the regulator as a standard...
EL480zPID III.f) Pump activation temperature The option is used to set the activation temperature for central heating and domestic hot water pumps (the temperature is measured on the boiler). None of the pumps will operate if the temperature is lower than the preset one. If the actual temperature is higher than the preset...
User manual III.j) Floor pump The function is used to control the floor heating. The user sets the floor heating temperature in the range between 30ºC to 55ºC. After activation of the floor pump the minimum (threshold) temperature (measured on the boiler) and the maximum (preset) temperature of the floor heating (measured on the pump sensor) should be set.
EL480zPID III.m) Set the date The function is used to set current date (day and month). III.n) Pulser sensitivity With this setting you can change the sensitivity of the pulser knob within a range from 1 to 3 (where 1 means the highest sensitivity).
User manual Pause in sustain mode This option is used to set the feeder pause time when the CH boiler operates in sustain mode (operating above the setpoint temperature). Attention: Incorrect setting of both operation and pause time may result in further temperature increase! The user should make sure that the pause time in sustain mode is not too short.
EL480zPID possession of Tech Company. Protections To ensure maximally safe and unfailing operation, the regulator has a number of protections. In the case of an alarm, a sound signal is activated and an appropriate message is shown on the display.
User manual V.e) Temperature protection The regulator has an additional protection in the event of damage of the bimetallic sensor. After exceeding the temperature of 85ºC, the alarm is activated, signalling the following on the display: "Temperature too high". Despite damage of the bimetallic sensor, the controller receives information on the current temperature in the boiler from the electronic sensor.
