13.2 Mode of operation
With plant types 2–x through 4–x, this function block controls the secondary flow tem-
perature of the heat converter according to the temperature acquired by flow sensor B1.
• With plant types 2–x and 3–x, it is the heat converter that supplies heat to the heat-
ing circuits and the d.h.w. circuit via the common flow
• With plant types 4–x, it is the heat converter that supplies heat to the heating circuits
With all types of plant, it is 2-port valve Y1 in the heat converter’s primary return that is
controlled.
This function block also provides minimum and maximum limitation of the flow tempera-
ture acquired with sensor B1.
13.3 Control process
If the actual flow temperature deviates from the setpoint, 2-port valve Y1 offsets the
deviation in a stepwise fashion. The controller drives an electric or electrohydraulic
actuator. The ideal running time of the actuator is 2...3 minutes.
The actuator’s running time, the P-band and the integral action time are to be set on
operating lines 81...83, depending on the type of plant. In addition, the heat converter’s
setpoint boost can be adjusted.
13.4 Maximum limitation of the flow temperature
The maximum limit value is to be set on operating line 85. The setting range for the
maximum limit value lies between the minimum limit value (setting on operating line 86)
and 140 °C.
At the limit value, the heating curve runs horizontally. This means that the flow tem-
perature setpoint cannot exceed the maximum value.
This function can be deactivated (entry of --- on operating line 85).
Maximum limitation is not a safety function; for that purpose, a thermostat, thermal re-
set limit thermostat or similar must be used.
13.5 Minimum limitation of the flow temperature
The minimum limit value is to be set on operating line 86. The setting range for the
minimum limit value lies between 8 °C and the maximum limit value (setting on operat-
ing line 85).
