5.1.1 Gradient characteristic

Basically, the following rule applies: a decrease in the outdoor temperature causes the flow tem-
perature to increase. By varying the

Gradient and Level parameters, you can adapt the charac-

teristic to your individual requirements. Increasing

Gradient results in a higher flow tempera-

ture, decreasing

Gradient in a lower flow temperature. The Level parameter performs a parallel

transport of the heating characteristic in an upward or downward direction.
Outside the times-of-use, reduced set points are used for control:
Reduced flow set point

= Flow set point – Set-back difference.

The

Max. flow temperature and Min. flow temperature parameters mark the upper and lower lim-

its of the flow temperature. A separate gradient characteristic can be selected for the limitation
of the return flow temperature.

Examples for adjusting the characteristic:

4

Old building, radiator design 90/70:

Gradient approx. 1.8

4

New building, radiator design 70/55:

Gradient approx. 1.4

4

New building, radiator design 55/45:

Gradient approx. 1.0

4

Underfloor heating depending on arrangement: Gradient smaller 0.5
