7. PUMP CAPACITY/ HEAD These models are tted with a circulation pump. This silent-running high-head pump is suitable for use on any type of heating system. The pump, mounted inside the appliance, is tted out for operation at maximum speed (III). Speed I should not be used as ow rate/head performance does not satisfy normal operating conditions.
9. DOMESTIC WATER METER (available on request) A meter kit for measuring water consumption is available as an accessory. The kit comprises a SIEMENS WFH36 electronic volumetric meter with display and radio data transmission (featuring the same characteristics as the heat meter: see §18) and two connection pipes housed inside the frame of the user module in the holes made for that purpose.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 10. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS The appliance is sold complete with electrical connections and power cable. This machine is only electrically safe if it is correctly connected to an ef cient earth system in compliance with current safety regulations. Connect the appliance to a 230V single-phase earthed power supply using the supplied three-pin cable, observing cor- rect LIVE (L) - NEUTRAL (N) polarity.
12. WIRING THE STORAGE BOILER Depending on the models, follow the instructions below: 12.1 WALL-HUNG STORAGE BOILER BAXI SIRIUS SAT B60 To electrically connect the storage boiler and the module, proceed as follows, also consulting the instructions supplied with the storage boiler and gure 8: SIRIUS SAT module terminals T2 –...

12.2 COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE STORAGE BOILERS The diameter of the storage boiler thermostat trap must be greater than 7 mm. The storage boiler probe and the ow switch, supplied as accessories, must be used for this application. To electrically connect the storage boiler and the module, proceed as follows, also consulting the instructions supplied with the storage boiler and gure 9: SIRIUS SAT module terminals T2 –...

12.3 STORAGE BOILER WITH DHW THERMOSTAT (COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE) This application is not recommended as it does not allow all the functions on the electrical board of the module (DHW adjustment, anti-legionellosis,…) to be used. To electrically connect the storage boiler and the module, proceed as follows, also consulting the instructions supplied with the storage boiler and gure 10: SIRIUS SAT module After unplugging the appliance, remove the cover of the external connector and replace the electric heater at the ends of...
13. CONNECTING THE AMBIENT THERMOSTAT The system must be tted with an ambient thermostat for controlling indoor temperature. To connect this device, proceed as follows: 13.1 SINGLE-ZONE MODELS: RA harmonised cable “HAR H05 VV-F” 2 x 0.75 mm2 with a maximum diameter of 8 mm. 13.2 DUAL-ZONE MODELS: RA2Z These models are tted for two ambient thermostats in order to provide independent management of two zones at diffe- rent temperatures.
14. CONNECTING THE FLOOR OVERHEATING THERMOSTAT When connecting the user module to a system operating at low temperature, install an off-the-shelf manually resettable contact thermostat (calibrated to 50°C) in order to protect the oor system from elevated temperatures due to possible faults in the adjustment system.
15. INSTALLING ANC CONNECTING THE EXTERNAL PROBE (accessory available on request) The appliance is tted for connection to an external probe, available on request, which independently adjusts delivery temperature depending on the external temperature and the chosen curve. To mount and electrically connect this accessory, see the gure below and the instructions supplied with the external probe.
16. CONNECTING THE CLIMATE ADJUSTER: ECO CRONO (accessory available on request) The SIRIUS SAT module can be remote controlled using the ECO CRONO climate adjustor. Connect the ECO CRONO climate adjustor to the ambient thermostat 1 terminals on the electronic board, as described below: mm with a maximum diameter of 8 mm.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: HEAT METERING 18. HEAT METERING The modules are supplied standard with a SIEMENS MEGATRON electronic heat meter. This device measures heat consumption in the zone controlled by the user module. The electronic unit features an 8-digit LCD display. The 3 Vdc input voltage is provided by a lithium battery (lifetime 8 years).
19. AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM VIA RADIO This system allows all the consumption data of the building to be handled from a single station, thus reducing measure- ment times whilst protecting user privacy. Transmission frequency is the 868 MHz established by the national radio tran- smission plan (European standard).

19.1 START-UP Start-up of the radio system comprises several steps: a start-up signal to the WTT16 aerials. blue button on each WTT16 aerial). 19.2 OPERATING PROCEDURE During automatic system operation, the WTT16 aerials and the GATEWAY WTX16.GSM aerial exchange the consumption data of the meters on a daily basis in order to allow each single aerial to store the data of the entire building.
START-UP AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 20. FILLING THE SYSTEM Before starting the user module, open the on/off valves on the hydraulic connectors and check the system lling pressure in the boiler room and distribution columns (< 3 bar). The centralised plant must have an automatic lling device. 21.
22. OPERATING PROCEDURE 22.1 STARTING To start the appliance correctly, proceed as follows: Following a heat demand from the ambient thermostat, the water from the centralised system begins to circulate in the heating elements of the zone controlled by the user module. For dual-zone models (RA2Z) the heating bands of two zones can be managed separately by the relative ambient ther- mostats (or with the ECO CRONO climate adjustor).
