Brief description of the IRT 30
What does room temperature controlled regulation mean?
- The IRT 30 continuously measures the temperature in the
room where it is fitted.
- The measured temperature will be compared with the desired
(set) temperature.
- The IRT 30 determines how intensely the boiler has to burn to
heat the CH-water, in order to achieve and maintain the
desired temperature.
- The IRT 30 calculates the lowest possible water temperature,
so that the boiler has to burn no more than necessary.
- In general, the boiler will therefore burn for a longer period at
a lower capacity.
- By means of this principle of control, hot CH-water is available
nearly all the time. If, in another room, a closed radiator valve is
opened, the room will quickly be brought up to temperature as
a result.
When to apply the room temperature controlled regulation?
- When the house is heated only by means of radiators.
When not to apply the room temperature controlled regulation?
- When there is no appropriate reference room in the house to
install the IRT 30.
- When your house is heated (also) by means of floor heating,
air heating or convectors.
In practice, the room temperature controlled regulation is the
principle which will be selected in most cases.
Weather dependent regulation
This is a principle of regulation in which the determination of the
CH water temperature is achieved by the outside temperature
and a number of preset values in the IRT 30.This can be necessary
when no reference room is available. Furthermore, this principle
is used in buildings where it must be possible to heat the rooms
independently from each other (for example old people’s homes
or office blocks). For this principle, the separate rooms should be
equipped with radiators with thermostatic radiator valves, in
order to regulate the temperature in each room.
