Underfloor Heating

Controller heating / cooling input

Circulation pump relay The Uponor Control System can operate a circulation pump on heating/cooling demand. The controlled use of a circulation pump improves the efficiency and responsiveness of the underfloor heating. Example of an installation:

WARNING Do not apply voltage to the controller heating / cooling input. Damage to the Uponor Control System will occur.

Should your system include a cooling unit, it is possible to manage the Uponor Control System with the help of a heating / cooling switch input. The contact may be operated in different ways: timer, ancillary control system, 2 position switch. The heating / cooling input operates with the connection of a dry contact. When the contact of the relay is open, the system is in heating mode. When the contact of the relay is closed, the system is in cooling mode.

WARNING See the circulation pump supplier documentation before performing the connection.

33 Uponor Control System - Operation Manual

1. General recommendations
Safety measures Read and follow the instructions. Installation must be performed by a qualified person according to local regulations. Don't make changes in hardware or software, send damaged control devices to Uponor if they need to be repaired. It is prohibited to make changes or modifications not specified in this manual. Power must be switched off when carrying out the wiring. We decline any responsibility concerning damages and breakdowns that may result from the non-observance of these instructions! Power supply WARNING The Uponor Control System uses a 230VAC 50Hz power supply. In case of emergency, immediately disconnect the plug from the 230V mains. Do not use water to clean the Uponor Control System. Do not expose the Uponor Control System to flammable vapors or gases.

Limitations for radio waves The Uponor Control System uses radio waves. The frequency used is reserved for similar applications and the chances of interference from other radio sources is very low. However, in some rare special cases, it may not be possible to establish a perfect communication. The transmission range is sufficient for most applications, but each building has different obstacles affecting communication and maximum transmission distance. If communication trouble exists, Uponor can support the system with accessories, such as repeaters, for solving the exceptional problems.

Symbols used in this manual WARNING Risk of bodily injuries or pinching. Non observance may harm health or cause damage to product components.
STOP

CAUTION Important note on functionality. Non observance of this note may cause malfunctions. Information. Important operating advice and information. Reference to another document.

2. The Uponor Control System

The Uponor Control System is a complete management for underfloor heating systems. Comfort, user-friendliness and temperature control for each room can be combined through the different components. The controller Installation and Operation Manual allow an optimum installation and setting. An ergonomic interface can be added in order to facilitate the setting and optimize the management. If your system is equipped with an interface, see interface Installation and Operation Manual.

Thermostat T-55 The thermostat is easy to use. The temperature settings can be adjusted with the help of a simple dial. The cover may be removed to allow min/max temperatures to be set. The 21C position is marked.

2.1

Overview of the system

The controller manages the operation of the actuators, when required by the thermostats following a demand for heating or cooling. It is possible to add an interface to centralize and optimize the management of the system.

Thermostat Public T-53 The thermostat is designed for public location. An alarm is triggered as soon as the cover is opened. The button, switches and potentiometers are all hidden by a cover. The cover may be removed to allow min/max temperatures to be set. An external sensor can be connected.

Controller with antenna and actuators

The Uponor Control System may be controlled with the help of three types of thermostats. Designed for maximum comfort, the thermostats communicate with the controller through radio waves. They may be used individually or in combination with each other. They are fitted with the same battery type for power supply.

The controller drives the actuators according to the setting in the interface and the temperature information received from the thermostats. The controller is typically located near the hydraulic system manifolds.

5 1
Thermostat Display T-75 The thermostat shows the ambient or set temperature on its screen. The thermostat is designed for operative measurement, it is affected by temperature of surrounding surfaces as well as the ambient air temperature.

Interface I-75 (possible option) The interface gives you the opportunity to centralize and optimize the management of the system. The interface allows you to display and update easier and faster the operating parameters of the system. The interface also displays the causes of any alarms. It is simple and easy to use.

Operating your installation

3. Thermostats
Thermostat Display T-75

The Uponor Control System controls your heating installation according to your needs. You simply have to set the temperatures you wish on the thermostats located in each room. Principle of operation: The temperature setpoint is setting with the thermostats. The order to change the temperature setpoint is controlled by the controller. Is there a temperature deviation the actuator opens or closes the valve, which varies the heat supply.

LCD display

For more information on your system, please see to the Installation Report in the fold-out.

Default display (Indication of room temperature)

Normal operation When the system is running in normal mode: The Power LED is on (visible on the upper right side of the controller cover), In Heating mode, in case of room temperatures lower than the temperatures set on the thermostat, the actuators are open. In Cooling mode, in case of room temperatures higher than the temperature set on the thermostat, the actuators are open. This can be seen in the small windows of the actuators.

Thermostat Display T-75

The minimum and maximum temperatures (5 C and 35 C) of the Thermostat Display T-75 are pre-set. It is however possible to tailor these temperatures to your system if it is equipped with an interface.

Thermostat T-55

If your system includes a floor sensor, a potentiometer fitted behind the cover of the Thermostat Public T-53 allows you to adjust the minimum or maximum temperature settings for the floor. The floor sensor can be used for maximum or minimum limitation of the floor temperature, regardless of the room temperature. The maximum limitation can be used, for example, to prevent a sensitive floor covering from exposure to a too high temperature where there is a high heat demand. The minimum limitation can be used, for example, to keep a tile floor warm even when there is no general demand for heat supply to the room.

Regular checks on your system components are recommended in order to optimize performance. This system requires no maintenance, but every few years the batteries are to be changed. You have the possibility of centralizing and optimizing the management of the system by connecting an interface to the controller. The interface allows you to display and update easier and faster the operating parameters of the system. The interface also displays the causes of alarms and facilitates diagnosis.

5. Diagnosis and resolution of alarms and faults

5.1
5.1.1

Normal system operating conditions:

Controller

The Power LED of the controller is lit up. All the channel LEDs are off if there is no demand for heating or cooling. The LEDs light up when the corresponding actuators are activated. While on stand-by, waiting for the actuators to be activated, the LEDs flash.

5.1.2 Thermostat batteries: The thermostats are powered by batteries. Discharged batteries must be replaced. See: "5.2 Alarms", page: 11. Controller: The Power LED of the controller is always lit up. When it blinks, this means that an alarm has been triggered. Open the controller cover. The LED of the channel from which the alarm originated is blinking rapidly. See: "5.2 Alarms", page: 11. Automatic exercise function: The system is fitted with an automatic exercise function. Set every 6 days +/- 24 hours, this function consists of a test-run designed to prevent the pump and actuators from seizing up, when they have not been activated since the last test.

: To find out if a problem is caused by the supply system or the control system: loosen the actuators from the manifold, wait some minutes and check if the flow pipe of the floor heating loop warms up. After some more minutes, the return pipe also should warm up. If the pipes do not warm up, the trouble lies in the warm water supply, if the loops warm up, the cause could be the room control system. Supply system defect: no warm water in manifold. Check boiler and circulation pump.
