    3 Installation 3.1 Mounting master on the wall The housing of the master is attached to the wall using 4 eyelets (1). Drill 4 dowel holes with a diameter of 6 mm into the wall according to dimensional draw- ing and insert the supplied dowels (2). Use a Phillips screwdriver to screw on the master with the 4 screws provided (3).

    3 Installation 3.3 Installing other components Extending the connecting cable Use the connector (6) for connecting two connecting cables in series. Installing the Powerbox In the case of cable lengths longer than 300 m, switch a powerbox between two con- necting cables. This way, the cable length can be extended by another 200 m to 500 m maximum.
  • Page 15 3 Installation Sub-standard assembly can cause malfunctions! If the knurled screw is not tightened correctly, the connection can work loose over time. This causes the system to malfunction! Make sure that all knurled screws of the connecting cables are tightened! Sub-standard assembly can cause malfunctions! If powerboxes are installed, these components provide voltage even when the master is switched off.
  • Page 16 3 Installation Installing the temperature sensor The external temperature sensor (3, 9952.000, PT1000) is delivered with a converter (2, output 4 - 20 mA) and connecting cable (1). Screw the temperature sensor (3) with its screw-in thread AG ¼" to the desired point of the installation.
  • Page 17 3 Installation The external temperature sensor is connected to the controller of a valve (flushing or cal- ibration valve), for this, connect the connection valve (1) to the M8 connection (8). Using the above-shown extension cables (9, 9943.005) the connection of several exten- sion cables of 5m each in series can bridge a distance of max.
  • Page 18 3 Installation Installing the flow sensor The external flow sensor (1) measures the flow through the pipe section. It is connected to the controller of a valve (flushing or calibration valve), for this, connect the connection valve (1) to the M8 connection (8).

    4 Working with the master 4 Working with the master The master allows the control and steering of all connected components. It is protected from unauthorized access by a password: 137. The available functions depend on the current configuration. A sample configuration is described here.
  • Page 20 4 Working with the master If some of the components were not recorded correctly, press button (1) to close the dia- log, switch the master off, check that all components are connected correctly and then switch the master on again. If all valves were recorded correctly, confirm dialog positively with button (2). The master overview appears.

  • Page 21: Home/Main Menu

    4 Working with the master The master is ready. The active applications are marked with a green circle. The applications currently running are marked with an animated blue circle. In area (1), all configured applications can be opened and parameterized. 4.2 Home/main menu Section (1) includes icons for all active applications.

  • Page 22: Hydraulic Alignment

    4 Working with the master 4.3 Hydraulic alignment The hydraulic alignment requires a circulation line. The corresponding valves do not close completely but only up to a adjustable leakage rate (minimum flow, Kvmin). The maximum opening angle (maximum flow Kvmax) of each valve can also be adjusted. Selecting the application icon for hydraulic alignment opens this dialog, which first dis- plays the recorded components: Select valve entry in the area (1) in order to adapt the name, leakage rate, and...

  • Page 23: General Procedure

    4 Working with the master The light fields display parameters, which cannot be adjusted. The number of a component is continuously assigned automatically, beginning with the line at the left socket of the master. Button x (2) closes the respective dialog without making any changes. Leakage rate (Kvmin, default setting 15%) and maximum opening angle (Kvmax, default set- ting 70%) can be adjusted.

Activate data using button (3) or abort dialog using button (2). 4.3.3 Process Process type in the area (1) is temperature The other fields change depending on this selection.

  • Page 25: Type = Temperature

    4 Working with the master 4.3.4 Type = Temperature The process is started upon reaching a specific temperature. Process sequence for hot water (area = hot) If the hot water becomes colder than the temperature (here: 57 °C, still thermally safe against legionella), then the process starts and opens the valve.
  • Page 26 4 Working with the master Risk of injury from hot water and components! Danger of burning and scalding during thermal disinfection! Make sure not to touch the components of the hot water circulation and the drain water during thermal disinfection. Please note that the components and the drained water require some time to cool down after the rinsing pro- cess.
  • Page 27 4 Working with the master Process sequence for cold water (area = cold) If the cold water becomes warmer than the temperature (here: 25 °C), then the process starts and opens the valve. The resulting cold water circulation lowers the temperature. T behavior cold water If the temperature is fallen below again, the valve closes again (leakage rate).

  • Page 28: Type = Temperature Static

    4 Working with the master 4.3.5 Type = Temperature static The process is started daily at a specific start-up time. The starting time must be selected so that the process of static hydraulic alignment takes place at a time when no water is withdrawn, i.e.
  • Page 29 4 Working with the master Process sequence for hot water (area = hot) At the set start-up time the first valve regulates its flow to the set temperature, in the shown example to 57 °C. Then the second valve regulates its flow, followed by the other valves, and finally the pro- cess is repeated until all valves reach the set temperature or the 4 hours have passed.

  • Page 30: Type = Flow

    4 Working with the master 4.3.6 Type = Flow The process is based on the hydraulic alignment related to the flow. For this purpose, a flow sensor is installed in each circulation line with a hydraulic alignment valve and con- nected to the controller, see Installing a flow sensor.

  • Page 31: Type = Constant

    4 Working with the master Process sequence At the set start-up time the first valve regulates its flow to the set flow rate, in the shown example to 200l/h. Then the second valve regulates its flow, followed by the other valves, and finally the pro- cess is repeated until all valves reach the set flow rate or the 4 hours have passed.

  • Page 32: Flushing

    4 Working with the master 4.4 Flushing The flushing of a line requires a valve that flows outwardly into a drain. The cor- responding valves close completely. The recorded components are first displayed. Select valve entry in area (1) in order to adapt the name of the valve - a virtual keyboard appears for this purpose.

  • Page 33: General Procedure

Here for temperature: Define the other parameters in the area (1).

  • Page 36: Trigger = Temperature

    4 Working with the master 4.4.5 Trigger = Temperature The process is started for each individual valve depending on the temperature. Process sequence for cold water (area = cold) Parameter hydraulic align- ment, cold water The process is started if the water temperature exceeds the temperature (default setting: 20 °C).
  • Page 37 4 Working with the master Process sequence for hot water (area = hot) Parameter HA, T static, warm water The process is started if the water temperature falls below the temperature (default setting: 50 °C). The lines are now flushed with hot water. The stop criterion (1) for the flushing process is selectable: Either a defined duration (default setting: 1 min), a temperature to be exceeded (default setting: 55 °C), or a specific volume for each flush valve.

  • Page 38: Trigger = Time

    4 Working with the master 4.4.6 Trigger = Time The flush process is started time-dependent and then implemented for all flush valves in sequence, starting with the first flush valve. The process is started when the set start time (default setting: 00:00 o'clock) is reached.
