  • Page 32: Temperature Controller

    9.7 Temperature controller From factory MIXIT is configured so that the temperature response of the system in most cases corresponds to the centre graph in the below figure. This is the ideal response. However, in some cases it may be necessary to make adjustments.
  • Page 33: Underfloor Overheat Protection

    MIXIT will react by fully opening the valve in order to circulate hot water in the system. The return flow temperature is measured by the sensor in port B of MIXIT. To measure the air temperature, you need to either install a temperature sensor in the coil or have the temperature data sent via fieldbus.
  • Page 34: Selecting Pump Control Mode

    Main menu > Settings > Setpoint > Pump setpoint pump performance is automatically adjusted to the actual heat Once connected, MIXIT takes control of the pump. From then on all demand in the system by following a proportional-pressure curve pump settings are done via MIXIT.
  • Page 35 9.12.4 Constant flow In this control mode, the pump maintains a constant flow in the system independently of the head. Constant-flow curve We recommend that you select this control mode in air handling unit systems. 9.12.5 Constant curve/constant speed At constant-curve/constant-speed operation, the pump runs at a constant speed, independently of the actual flow rate demand in the system.
  • Page 36: Position Control

    9.13 Position control The Position control function allows you to use an external electrical input signal to control the opening degree of the MIXIT valve between 0-100%. The valve position resolution is 150 steps to avoid unnecessary movement and wear of the valve.

    You can change your setpoint settings with Grundfos GO Remote and via fieldbus. If you attempt to change the setpoint from the MIXIT operating panel, the SET setpoint indicator will start to flash as the setpoint is now controlled from an external source.
  • Page 38: Eco Schedule

    Main menu > Settings > Eco functions > Eco schedule A temperature setback can be defined for the period in which MIXIT runs according to Eco schedule. In this period, MIXIT sets the normal operating temperature back with the number of degrees set in Grundfos GO Remote. Temperature setback is only available for heating applications.
  • Page 39: Warm Weather Shutdown

    9.16 Warm weather shutdown When a defined average outdoor temperature has been surpassed one to three days in a row, MIXIT automatically closes the valve and the pump stops. MIXIT and the pump start again, when the average outdoor temperature drops below the defined limit.
  • Page 40: Supply Flow Limit

    This function is available with MIXIT DYNAMIC and is automatically activated. You can upgrade to DYNAMIC at any time. To ensure sufficient primary flow to all installed MIXIT systems, you can balance each system according to its heat demand. This is done by limiting the primary flow through the valve.
  • Page 41: Thermal Power Limit

    This function is available with MIXIT DYNAMIC and is automatically activated. You can upgrade to DYNAMIC at any time. MIXIT can be configured to limit the thermal power delivered by the mixing loop. The power limiter automatically limits the valve opening whenever the configured power limit is exceeded.
