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 upperand 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
