Wiring & Installation
Mount on a standard recessed wall back box. Feed mains to L/N terminals; the load output switches the electric heating or carbon film circuit. Lay the 3 m NTC floor sensor beneath the floor finish between two element runs and connect it to the sensor input. For circuits above the rated load, drive a contactor from the output. Once powered, the touch menu lets you select sensing mode (air / floor / floor-limited) and set the weekly programme. RCD-protected installation by a qualified electrician.
Compatible Heating Systems
- Electric heating mats — direct switching under tile and stone.
- Carbon / graphene heating film — suspended and renovated floors.
- Heating cables — looped wet-room and whole-floor zones.
- Bathroom floor heating mat — wet-room floor-limited control.
- Underfloor heating systems — zoning design.
Programming & Operating Modes
The touch menu steps through setpoint, mode and schedule: comfort temperature for occupied hours, setback overnight or away, anti-freeze minimum for vacant periods. Guest lock freezes the programme in public rooms; calibration offset and floor-temperature limits are set on-screen. Because programming is on-panel, it works on day one with no app account, network pairing or manual lookup required.
Safety & Certifications
Flame-retardant PC+ABS enclosure, 100 % factory testing, CE and RoHS certification under ISO 9001-managed production. The floor sensor enforces a safe floor-temperature ceiling for wood and laminate; guest lock prevents tampering; freeze protection guards empty rooms through winter. RCD-protected circuits complete the installation standard.
