Brief description of the IRT 30
3.2 Selecting the correct kind of temperature
regulation
In paragraph 3.1 the three kinds of temperature regulation for
which the IRT 30 is suitable, are mentioned:
- room temperature controlled regulation
- weather dependent regulation
- weather dependent regulation with room temperature
compensation.
For the last two mentioned, it is necessary to place an outside
temperature sensor (which determines the outside temperature
and sends this information to the boiler) on the outside wall of
your house.This must be a wall where the sun does not shine on
directly and where the outside air can freely circulate around the
sensor.
Room temperature controlled regulation
This is the simplest principle of regulation. It gives a high comfort
level and has a high performance.To ensure the installation will
operate according these principles, a number of conditions
should be satisfied.There should be a room in your house in
which the temperature is representative for the temperature in
the rest of your house.This must be a room where, for example,
the fireplace does not burn all day long, or the outside door or
windows are not open very often. Such a room is called a
reference room.
Reference room
A reference room is a room (for example the living room) where
a temperature can be measured which is representative for the
entire house.
We assume that the temperature in other rooms (for example
kitchen or bathroom) is equal to the temperature in the reference
room.
An other reason to appoint a specific room as reference room is that
most of the time will be spent in this room.Therefore, it is important
that the temperature regulation of this room is correct.The other
rooms in the house can have a lower (or higher) temperature.
