(button only appears if boost
backup is activated)
TIP: With the hot water boost backup, limit the use of grid power by avoiding the
switch-off at maximum temperature. To do this, set the value higher than the cut
out temperature on the immersion heating element thermostat and site the
temperature sensor between the immersion heating element and the top edge of the
storage tank. In this way, in boost backup mode only the volume above the sensor
will be heated to the minimum temperature, while when there is excess PV, the
entire contents above the immersion heating element will be heated.
Specific settings for operating mode M1
Hot water 1 temperatures
Adjustable is the maximum permitted temperature to be reached at the my-PV temperature sensor
(factory setting = 60 °C). This has nothing to do with a bimetal thermostat which may be installed!
If the cut out temperature of an immersion heating element with a bimetal thermostat is set
too low, the AC•THOR may possibly be unable to reach the desired temperature!
If the optional automatic temperature boost backup is shown "On" in the window on the right
(factory setting "Off") or the relay output has been selected, a minimum temperature can then be
set (factory setting 50 °C). It cannot be set higher than the maximum temperature.
Automatic temperature boost backup "On":
The AC•THOR can ensure a minimum temperature at the my-PV temperature sensor through the
immersion heating element connected. This is supplied with maximum power.
Relay output:
Alternatively, the minimum temperature can be maintained by enabling an external heat source.
Enablement is by means of a potential-free contact. For details of wiring the potential-free contacts,
please refer to the assembly instructions in the chapter "Connections".
TIP for AC•THOR (not AC•THOR 9s):
If as an external heat source a second immersion heating element (maximum 3 kW)
is used, it can be suitably connected up for 6 kW operation. This differs from the 6
kW operating mode in that here the second immersion heating element is only used
for temperature boost backup and not as an extension to the normal control range!
Hot water 1 min switching times
This setting can be selected when the temperature boost backup is "On" under "Hot water 1
temperatures", or when the relay output has been selected.
