SC ACS 160-225 DESCRIPTION The SC ACS 160-225 is a floor-standing module for the instantaneous production of domestic hot water for large appli- cations. The function of the module is to heat domestic hot water by exchanging energy from a buffer tank.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION AND PRECAUTIONS READ THIS MANUAL THOROUGHLY BEFORE PERFORMING ANY WORK ON THE PRODUCT. The manufacturer reserves the right to modify the product without notice for the purpose of introducing technical im- provements or to facilitate production, installation and positioning. The illustrations in this manual may therefore differ slightly from the actual product.

CONTROL PANEL - The controller incorporates an illuminated display with a synoptic that identifies the unit’s active functions and instant temperatures. - In the event of a malfunction in either of the DHW pumps, the unit automatically adjusts itself to deliver up to 60% of the hot water requested.
INSTALLATION HANDLING The customer is responsible for providing suitable equip- ment for unloading and moving the unit, for checking the number of pieces delivered and for verifying the integrity of all material. The unit is delivered on a pallet. Use a pallet jack or forklift truck to move the unit.

The distance of the module from wall must be at POSITIONING minimum 0,5 m. The distance of the module from the storage cylin- der must be at maximum 7/8 m. 7000 / 8000 Bear in mind the following before installing the product: - The product is designed to mix domestic hot water from a storage cylinder.
Page 14
The connection to the sanitary water network must follow the prescriptions of the current legislation. The domestic cold water supply must be fitted with a safety valve conforming to DIN 4753 part 1. The operating pressure of this valve must be equal to the unit’s maximum operating pressure. If the pressure of the water supply reaches 10 bar, install a pressure reducer downstream from the water meter.
On completion of all transport or handling operations, always check the tightness of the water fitting ring nuts. Take particular care when connecting the unit to the water supply. When tightening a fitting, always hold the opposite fitting steady with a second tool to avoid damage. Connect up the pipes according to the legend on the unit itself and according to the instructions given in this manual.

SYSTEM VARIANT WITH SINGLE RETURN TO STORAGE CYLINDER The following procedure must be completed before putting the sys- tem into service. Proceed as follows to disable the return to the middle of the storage cyl- inder. - Close cock RP2 (primary return to middle of storage cylinder); We recommend that you screw a 1 ½”...
PUTTING INTO SERVICE Provide electrical protections on the power supply line as per current legislation. Circuit filling and putting into service must only be done by qualified personnel. Fill and bleed the primary and secondary circuits and check for leaks before putting the unit into service. - Check that the ring nuts of all the water fittings are tight.
USE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE CONTROLLER EU-Conformity By affixing the CE mark to the unit the manufacturer declares that the LFWC conforms to the following relevant safety regulations: - EU low voltage directive 2014/35/EU - EU electromagnetic compatibility directive 2014/30/EU conforms. Conformity has been verified and the corresponding documentation and the EU declaration of conformity are kept on file by the manufacturer.

DISPLAY AND PROGRAMMING With its clear graphic and text interface, the display (1) provides intuitive guidance on the operation of the con- troller. The LED (2) lights up green when a relay is switched on. The LED (2) lights up red when operating mode ‚Off‘ is set. The LED (2) flashes quickly red when an error is present.
SETUP WIZARD The first time the controller is switched on, once the lan- Setup wizard guage and the clock are set, a prompt will appear asking whether or not the setup wizard is required. The wizard Do you want to run the setup can be called up again at a later time if needed, from the wizard now? special functions menu.
MEASUREMENT VALUES Serve to display the current measured temperatures. 1.Exit Measurements If ‚error‘ appears on the display instead of the meas- 1.1.Storage ret. 19°C urement value, there may be a defective or incorrect temperature sensor. 1.2.Circulation 39°C Info STATISTICS Serve for function control and long-term monitoring of the system.
3. OPERATING MODE Auto The automatic mode is the normal mode of the controller. 4.Exit operating mode A correct controller function under consideration of the 4.1.Automatic (selected) current temperatures and the set parameters is only pres- ent in automatic mode! After an interruption of the mains 4.2.Manual voltage, the controller automatically returns to the last op- erating mode selected.
PROTECTIVE FUNCTIONS The 'Protective functions‘ can be used by specialists to activate and set various protective functions. Exit protections 5.1.Anti-legionella By no means does the controller replace the safety appliances on site! 5.3.Discharge protection Anti Legionella With the help of the anti legionella function (hereinafter referred to as: "AL", the system can be heated up at selected times in order to free it of legionella.

Min. Speed The minimum speed of the pump is determined here. During the setting, the pump runs in the respective speed and the flow can be determined. The specified percentages are variables, which may deviate more or less strongly depending on the system, pump and pump level.

Circ. Tmin. Minimum temperature If this value is undershot and the circulation is approved or there is a request through a tapping process, the circulation pump is started. Circ. Hysteresis Switch-off hysteresis of the circulation pump. If the Circ. Tmin value is exceeded by the value set here, the circulation pump will be shut down.

∆T return storage Temperature difference for the storage tank stratification via a zone valve. If the temperature in the primary return flow exceeds the corresponding storage tank temperature by the temperature difference set here, the valve switches on to stratify in the upper storage tank zone. If the temperature drops below this temperature, the valve is switched off again. When no storage sensor is connected, a temperature of 25°C is assumed.
Page 29
∆T Solar Switch on/switch off temperature difference for sensor X: If the temperature difference ∆T Solar between the reference sensors is exceeded and the other conditions are fulfilled, the controller will turn on the pump/valve on the corresponding relay. If the temperature difference falls to ∆T Off, the pump/valve will be turned off again.

For high-efficiency pumps with 0-10 V / PWM signal input, the power supply can be made via the additional func- tions "always on" or "parallel operation V1/V2" on relays. Settings of the cascade function Activation of the cascade function The controller of the cascade for fresh water systems is a special function that is activated via the hidden menu. In order to access the cascade function in the menu, press the ESC button for 10 seconds upon switching on.

of all controllers within the network. The total flow rate is calculated and displayed in each controller next to the icon for the valve. The sensor values S1 to S6 are exchanged through CAN. First it is verified whether a local sensor is connected and if this is the case, it will be used and its value transmitted through the CAN bus to the connected controller.

the time is accurately set on the controller. Please note that the clock continues to run for about 24 hours if the mains volt- age is interrupted, and afterward must be reset. Improper operation or an incorrect time may result in data being cleared, recorded incorrectly or overwritten.

7. MENU LOCK Secure the controller against unintentional changing and compromise of basic functions. 7.Exit menu lock Menu lock active = "On" 7.1.Menu lock Menu lock off = "Off" In addition, the "Simple" menu view can be used to hide menu items that are not necessary for the daily use of the controller after commissioning.
MALFUNCTIONS MALFUNCTIONS AND ERROR MESSAGES If the controller detects a problem, the red LED flashes and a warning symbol appears on the display. If the mal- function resolves itself, the warning symbol becomes an information symbol and the red LED stops flashing. To view details of the error, press the key under the warn- ing or information symbol.
REPLACING THE CONTROLLER FUSE Replace the fuse with the one contained into the document envelope. Repairs and maintenance may only be performed by a specialist. Before working on the unit, switch off the power supply and secure it against being switched on again! Check for the absence of power! Only use the supplied spare fuse or a fuse of the same design with the following specifications: T2A...
