4.15.2 External electrical controls

The boiler terminals 3, 4 and 5 are for connecting exter-
nal electrical controls such as a time switch and/or
room thermostat. Terminals 3 and 4 are linked together
when the boiler is supplied. If external controls are used,
this link must be removed, and the controls connected
across terminals 3 and 4. Terminal 5 is an additional
neutral connection for external neutrals such as from
the anticipator of a room thermostat.

If a room thermostat is to be connected in addition to a
time switch the wire between the time switch "ON" termi-
nal and boiler terminal 4 should be broken by the contacts
of the room thermostat (see schematic layout, fig. 4.18).

4.15.4 Vaillant optional plug in timer accessories

Refer to the instructions supplied with the optional
accessories for connection details. Upon completion of
all electrical connections refit the terminal box cover by
pushing into place. The cover is secured by two locking
clips.
4.15.5 Connection details using the VR 65 Control
Center
The VR 65 Control Center is an eBUS system component.
In a storage unit installation, it is responsible for the
communication between the storage unit, the ecoTEC
plus system boilers and external 2- or 3-way-valves.
Connect the VR 65 Controll Center as described in the
enclosed manual.

4.16 Thermostatic radiator valves

The boiler has a built in automatic by-pass valve making
it ideal for use in systems with thermostatic radiator
valves (no separate system by-pass is required). For
optimum fuel economy where TRV's are used they must
be used in conjunction with a boiler control interlock. A
programmable room thermostat or separate timer and
room thermostat will ensure complete boiler shut down
when the heating demand is satisfied. (The radiator in
the room containing the room thermostat should not be
fitted with a TRV).
