Polypipe UFHPROGB Programmable Room Thermostat

Overview

The Programmable Room Thermostats Range (UFHPROGB & UFHPROGRFB) provides time and temperature control for a space of up to 40m2. Both units are compatible with the Remote (wet room) sensor PB23020 and should be installed 1.2m above floor level and away from direct heat sources. Wiring Details are provided in the additional documentation. The UFHPROGB and UFHPROGRFB units are designed to be used in conjunction with our range of hardwired and wireless Master Wiring Centres and Slave Units. Depending on the application, additional RF receivers (PB REC RF) may required. Details on how to initiate communication with the receiver units in RF applications are provided in the additional RF documentation. This user guide provides user settings and Programming details, these and the advanced settings can also be downloaded from www.polypipeufh.com in A4 format.

Temperature settings
The Programmable Room Thermostats operates at 2 different temperatures:

Comfort – When the space is occupied – the desired temperature.
Setback – when the space is unoccupied – the temperature the room will not fall below.

This is to assist the response time of the heating system. For solid floor systems it is recommended that the Setback temperature is set no more than 4ºC lower than the Comfort temperature. You may find that other systems can be set with a higher differential

Time settings

The room thermostats are preset with a function called Optimum Start (ITCS In the menu function) This means that you do not need to adjust each room for the warm up time from Setback to Comfort. The On Time in the pre-set programs, or the start time as defined by users in the User Defined programs, is the time by which the room will be at the Comfort temperature by, not the time the heating will start to operate. Each thermostat will learn the warm up time of the room and start the heating at a time to achieve Comfort by the time required, this optimisation self adjust for changes in outside temperature.

When this function is operating, i.e. the thermostat is heating prior to the actual time setting, the will be displayed (flashing). If required this function can be de-activated in the user menu so as the heating will actually switch on at the chosen pre-set time.

To do this you will need to access the hidden user menu by setting the thermostat operation to AUTO and then holding down the (OK) button for 10 seconds. Then using the navigation button scroll to menu 07 and press (OK) then use the (+) to choose no and press (OK). Then using scroll to End and press (OK).
