1. Operating Instructions

1.1 Technical Description

Storage heaters store electrically generated heat during low-cost electricity tariff periods (depending on the electricity supply company, mainly during the night hours) and discharge it through the surface of the unit.

The unit is operated by the control panel (1) on the right side wall (fig. 1).

The degree of heat storage (charging) is determined by the selector knob (fig. 16). A distinction needs to be made here between operation of the storage heater with or without cen- tral weather-controlled charging control unit (is in the sub-distributor). If there is no central, weather-controlled charging control unit (manual operation, fig. 17), the selector knob should be set as follows:

• = no charging 1 = Transitional period (Spring/Autumn) – corresponds to about 1/3 full charge 2 = Mild Winter days – corresponds to about 2/3 full charge 3 = Winter days – corresponds to full charge After a short while you will soon have the necessary experience to find the right setting every time. If there is a central, weather-controlled charging control unit (automatic operation), the selector knob should be set to position 3. The weather-controlled charging control unit then takes care of the right charging. For varying control of individual storage heaters, the charging volume can be adapted manually with the selector knob even when a charging control unit is available (fig. 16). Observe the operating and installation instructions of the charging control unit or group control unit for this.

1.2.2 Heat Discharge

The heat is discharged through the surface of the unit by natural convection, radiation and heat conduction. For the User 03 GB WSP_1510S.p65 27.01.2004, 16:322223 English

1.3 Safety Instructions

2.2.1 Function Principle

The storage blocks are heated up by the heating elements between the rows of storage blocks. Charging is set continuously with the charging control unit (selector knob fig. 16) Start and duration of the charging time are determined by the responsible electricity supply company. A built-in safety temperature controller (17) and a safety temperature limiter (18) prevent overheating of the unit. Whilst the safety temperature regulators switch on again automatically, the safety temperature limiter must be switched back on by the technician by pressing in the knob in the middle of the limiter after eliminating the cause of the error. The heat stored in this way is then re-discharged through surface of the unit by natural convection, radiation and heat conduction.

2.2.2 Electronic Charging Control Unit

Behaviour in case of fault The charging control unit in the heater is set at the factory to ”positive fault behaviour (80 % PS), i.e. in the case of a defective charging control unit (e.g. failure of the control signal), the unit is fully charged. The unit can be switched to ”negative fault behaviour” (no charging of the storage heater) by moving the plug-in bridge X16 to position ”80 % NS” when the device is connected to a digital charging control unit. Operation with the charging control unit The appropriate notes in the operating and installation instructions of the charging control unit must be observed. Control signal The electronic charging control unit can be connected to different control signals (ED) of control units and can therefore be integrated in existing systems. It is factory set to an AC control signal (AC voltage signal at terminals A1/A2) with 80 % ED. Other ED signals (68/72, 37/40 %) can be selected by moving the plug-in bridge X16. This is necessary when the unit is integrated in an already existing system which controls the charging with one of the named ED signals. For the Fitter 03 GB WSP_1510S.p65 27.01.2004, 16:322728 Connection to DC control signal (X3) (see circuit diagram page 18) If a charging control unit with DC control signal (DC voltage 0.91 V-1,43 V) is installed in the system, the control signal must be connected to the control terminals covered at the factory ”DC +” (plus pole) and ”DC-” (minus pole) (Pay attention to polarity!). The 230 V AC control signal may not be connected to the ”DC +” and ”DC –” terminals. The charging control unit would otherwise be destroyed. Operating and fault indicator (V4) on the electronic charging control unit. LED lights ”green” ⇒ no fault The charging control unit is working perfectly. LED lights ”red” ⇒ Fault a) Selector knob for charging (R1) and/or brick sensor (B1) defective or not connected. b) Plug-in bridge X17 for charging factor reduction is missing. No charging takes place.

2.3 Rules and Regulations

• Pay attention to the packing slip!

• The national building and garage regulations must be taken into account.

• The installation area must have a sufficient floor load capacity. In case of doubt a building surveyor should be consulted (for weights of the storage heaters, see ”Technical Data”).

• The minimum distance from adjacent object surfaces must be kept (figs. 2 and 2a).

• All electrical connection and installation work must be performed in accordance with the VDE regulations (0100), the regulations of the electricity supply company responsible and the pertinent national and regional regulations.

• The device must be disconnectable from the mains at all poles by an supplementary device with a disconnection distance of at least 3 mm. Contactors, fuses and similar can be connected for this.

• A later increase in the output must be approved separately by the responsible electricity supply company. Failure to notify the electricity supply company of the increase in the output constitutes a breach of the electricity supply contract.

• The operating equipment must be designed for the rated consumption of the units.

• The unit’s rating plate must be observed! The specified voltage must match the rated voltage.

• Unit fastening for meeting the VDE standing safety requirement.

The storage heater must be secured by a wall or floor fixture (fig. 8) to meet the VDE standing safety requirement. There is a hole in the back wall of the heater through which the heater can be fixed to the wall with a suitable screw to prevent it from tipping over. Alternatively the storage heater can be screwed to the floor through 4 holes (∅ 9 mm) in the feet of the heater or to the consoles when floor consoles are used.

2.4.1 Installation Site

The unit may not – be operated in rooms where there is a risk of fire or explosion due to chemicals, dust, gases or fumes; – be operated in the immediate vicinity of pipes or containers which carry or contain inflammable or explosive substances; – be operated when the minimum distances from adjacent object surfaces are not kept. In rooms in which exhaust fumes, oil and petrol smells occur, the unpleasant smell may linger and could possibly cause soiling. Floors The standing surface of the unit must be level and sufficiently stable so that the housing is not deformed. A temperature resistance of the fastening wall of at least 85 °C and of the floor of at least 80 °C must be ensured. The units can be placed on any conventional floor but changes may occur in the rail area on PVC, parquet and long pile carpeted floors under the influence of pressure and temperature. In this case heat-resistant underlay tiles must be used (to be provided on site). For the Fitter 03 GB WSP_1510S.p65 27.01.2004, 16:322930

2.4.2 Fastening of the Units with Floor Clearance with Wall Consoles

Before installing the unit, two wall holders (19) must be screwed to the wall under consideration of the safety distances (dimensions see ”Technical data” page 9). The following must be observed with this installation site: If a stable wall is available, the unit can be fixed to the installation wall with the wall holders provided. Attention: It should be checked thoroughly whether the fastening wall and the enclosed screws and plugs are suitable to take the full weight of the unit. With wall of limited stability floor clearance for the unit WSP 1510 S is only possible in connection with the combination wall holder/support console (special accessories).

2.4.3 Installation with Floor Consoles

If no suitable fastening wall exists, the unit must be fixed to the floor with the floor console (special accessory) (screw fitting unit/console and console/floor).

2.5 Unit Installation (fig. 3-14)

Before installing the unit, make sure that the permissible minimum distances from adjacent objects are kept. Two wall holders are fixed to the back wall of the unit which must be unscrewed before installa- tion.

• Unscrew the front wall (4) at the bottom edge, swing forward and remove by lifting slightly at the top edge;

• Unscrew the inside front wall (7) at the side lugs, swing the top end forward and pull out from above;

• Lift the right side wall (3) slightly and remove;

• Feed the power cables and connecting cables for charging control unit and discharge control unit through the opening in unit rear panel (14) and connect according to section 2.5.2 (lay connecting cable about 210 mm and shorten as required so that it does not obstruct the air vents in the side panel);

• Install the unit according to section 2.4;

• Remove cover plate (9), cardboard inlays and operating button and mounting material kit (screws and plugs) from inside (fig. 9). This must be completely free of foreign bodies such as packing leftovers. Check the thermal insulation in the unit for transportation damage and replace if necessary. Insert the storage blocks (fig. 10 and 11) The storage blocks are delivered packed separately. Storage blocks with slight transportation damage may still be used. This does not impair the function of the heater. The heating elements (15) must be lifted slightly to insert the storage blocks (8) (fig. 10). Place the first storage block with the heating element recess at the top some distance away from the right thermal insulation under the heater and push to the right and rear thermal insulation. The elongated holes form the heating channels. When lifting the heating elements, make sure that the through holes in the side thermal insulation are not widened by the heating elements. Then push the cover plate (9) removed from the interior over the top storage blocks (fig. 12).

2.5.2 Electrical Connection

The electrical connection is made with 1/N/PE ~ 50 Hz 230 V. Direct connection with NYM is possible. The number of supply cables and wires as well as cable cross sections depends on the connection rating of the unit and the type of mains connection and on special electricity supply company regulations. Observe the appropriate circuit diagrams for this. When connecting the unit to an automatic charging control unit, voltages may occur at the terminals A1/Z1 and A2/Z2 even when the fuses are removed. For the Fitter 03 GB WSP_1510S.p65 27.01.2004, 16:323031 English Connection Relieve the strain on the electrical connecting leads as required and connect according to the electrical circuit diagram in the device (on the inside of the right side wall) or the connection diagram opposite. If the angle plate in the switching area for holding the mains terminals is poorly accessible due to too small a spacing, it can be swung forward during connection work after loosening the screw (not removing) in the rear wall. Voltage (230 V) must be applied to the terminal ”L” of the terminal strip X2 during the charging time. If no separate power supply is available for this, the terminal ”L1” can be bridged with ”L”. In this case the terminal ”N” of the terminal strip X2 must always be bridged terminal ”N” of terminal strip X1. Please make sure that the protective earth is connected properly! The cable for connecting a DC control signal must be insulated with a hose inside the unit from the strain relief to the connecting terminal before connecting. Control without heater contactor If no heater contactor is to be installed (partly energy supply company requirement) the thermal relay installed in the storage heater at the factory can be used. For this, either the energy supply company signals ”LF” and ”N” or the signals ”SH” and ”N” of the respective charging control must be connected directly to the terminals ”L-SH” and ”N” of the storage heater. The notes marked * in the connection diagram must be observed.

For the Fitter The heating elements in the unit are not switched on until the energy supply company has released the LF and the electronic charging control unit starts charging. A bridged must be inserted between ”N” and ”A2/Z2” for operation with ”single-wire control”** ! Observe the unit rating plate!

2.5.3 Unit Ready for Operation

Cleaning the unit (fig. 13) The open unit must be cleaned after installation and insertion of the storage blocks. Close the unit (fig. 14 and 15)

2.6 First-time Operation

Short-circuit danger charging control unit When measuring the voltage at the thermal relay contacts the charging control unit is destroyed in the case of ground connection – slipping of the measuring peaks. The display still lights ”green”!

The unit can be started without initial heating. Charging takes place either manually with the adjuster of the electronic charging control unit or automatically with the available Elfamatic charging control unit. During initial charging, the charging in kWh must be determined and compared with the maximum permissible charging from the cold state specified in the ”Technical Data”. The determined charging may not exceed the maximum permissible charging from the cold state. During initial charging, a smell may be produced, the room should therefore be adequately aired (1.5 times air change, e.g. tilted windows). Initial charging in the bedroom should not take place when sleeping in it if possible.

2.7 Repair, Conversion of Unit

Proceed according to these installation instructions as for the initial installation for re-installation of a unit which has been dismantled for repairs or which was in operation somewhere else. In these cases the following must be paid special attention: Parts of the thermal insulation at which there are visible signs or damage or change which could impair the safety must be replaced by new parts. The insulation must be tested and the rated consumption measured before commis- sioning.

2.7.1 Conversion of the Unit
