Entering Parameters For The Heating Circuit - Vaillant VRC 430f Operating And Installation Manual

The desired room target temperature or the frost pro-
tection function is set. The display changes from high-
lighted to normal.

Entering parameters for the heating circuit

You can enter the following parameters:
Set-back temp
Outside the specified time windows, the
room temperature is reduced to the set-back temp.
If your heating engineer has set the frost protection
function the set-back temperature will automatically
be 5 °C. This is not displayed as a set-back tempera-
ture.
Heating curve
The relationship between the outside temperature and
the required heating flow temperature is represented
by a diagram with different heating curves (see
Fig. 4.15). Each heating curve (from 0.2 - 4.0) gives a
value for the heating flow temperature (vertical dia-
gram axis) for a specific outside temperature (hori-
zontal diagram axis).
Fig. 4.15 Diagram with heating curves for a target room tem-
perature of 20 °C
Example:
If heating curve 1.5 has been selected with a target
room temperature of 20 °C the controller
ensures a heating flow temperature of 56 °C at an out-
side temperature of 0 °C.
A range of steep heating curves show whether the heat-
ing flow temperature should be increased at a faster or
slower rate, depending on the outside temperature.

Note!
h
In a well-insulated appartment a comfortable
room temperature can be achieved even with a
flat heating curve. This saves heating energy.
Your heating engineer will provide advice as to
which heating curve should be selected.
To change the heating curve: (example heating circuit 1):
Turn the left-hand dial until you reach Screen
"HC1 Parameters".

The display shows "Select temperature" in the comment
field.
Click the right-hand dial.
The field is highlighted.
Turn the right-hand dial until the desired
value is displayed (values from 5 °C to 30 °C in half
degree steps are possible).
Click the right-hand dial.
The required set-back temperature is set. The display
