Class and
contribution
Boiler with
variable delivery
temperature
(controlled by
communication
bus)
Connection via communication bus to
RiCLOUD.
Delivery temperature to the
boiler calculated on the basis of at least
3 distinct room temperatures. At least 3
RiCLOUDs (sensors) connected to at least
3 zone valves (actuators) are required.

Denition of classes
Class I – On/off room thermostat: a room thermostat that controls the on/off
operation of a heater. Performance parameters, including switching differential
and room temperature control accuracy are determined by the thermostat’s
mechanical construction.
Class V – Modulating room thermostat, for use with modulating heaters: an
electronic room thermostat that varies the ow temperature of the water
leaving the heater dependent upon measured room temperature deviation
from room thermostat set point. Control is achieved by modulating the output
of the heater.
Class VI – Weather compensator and room sensor, for use with modulating
heaters: a heater ow temperature control that varies the ow temperature of
water leaving the heater dependent upon prevailing outside temperature and
selected weather compensation curve. A room temperature sensor monitors
room temperature and adjusts the compensation curve parallel displacement
to improve room comfort. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the
heater.
Class VIII – Multi-sensor room temperature control, for use with modulating
heaters: an electronic control, equipped with 3 or more room sensors, that
varies the ow temperature of the water leaving the heater dependent upon
the aggregated measured room temperature deviation from room sensor set
points. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the heater.
