INFORMATION
The permission signal for the auxiliary boiler is located on the EKRP1HBAA (digital I/O
PCB). When it is activated, the contact X1, X2 is closed and open when it is
deactivated. See illustration below for the schematic location of this contact.

# Code Description
9.C.3 [C-03] Range: –25°C~25°C (step: 1°C)
9.C.4 [C-04] Range: 2°C~10°C (step: 1°C)
The higher the value of [C‑04], the higher the
accuracy of the switch-over between the heat
pump system and the auxiliary boiler.
To determine the value of [C‑03], proceed as follows:
1 Determine the COP (=coefficient of performance) using the formula:
Formula Example
COP = (Electricity price / gas price)
(a)
×
boiler efficiency
If:
▪ Electricity price: 20c€/kWh
▪ Gas price: 6c€/kWh
▪ Boiler efficiency: 0.9
Then: COP = (20/6)×0.9 = 3
(a)
Make sure to use the same units of measurement for the electricity price and gas price
(example: both c€/kWh).
