14. Selection of control mode
System application
Recommended for most heating systems, especially in systems with relatively large pressure losses in the
distribution pipes. See description under proportional pressure.
In replacement situations where the proportional-pressure duty point is unknown.
The duty point has to be within the AUTO

This setting ensures minimum energy consumption and noise level from valves, which reduces operating costs
and increases comfort.

This control mode is suitable for systems where a maximum flow limit, FLOW

Main pumps in boiler applications where a steady flow through the boiler is required. No extra energy is used for
pumping too much liquid into the system.
In systems with mixing loops, the control mode can be used to control the flow in each loop.
Benefits:
Enough water for all loops at peak load conditions if each loop has been set to the right maximum flow.
The dimensioned flow for each zone (required heat energy) is determined by the flow from the pump.
This value can be set precisely in the FLOW
When the flow is set lower than the balancing valve setting, the pump will ramp down instead of losing energy
by pumping against a balancing valve.
Cooling surfaces in air-conditioning systems can operate at high pressure and low flow.
In systems with relatively large pressure losses in the distribution pipes and in air-conditioning and cooling systems.
Two-pipe heating systems with thermostatic valves and
– a dimensioned pump head higher than 4 metres
– very long distribution pipes
– strongly throttled pipe balancing valves
– differential-pressure regulators
– large pressure losses in those parts of the system through which the total quantity of water flows
(for example boiler, heat exchanger and distribution pipe up to the first branching).
Primary circuit pumps in systems with large pressure losses in the primary circuit.
Air-conditioning systems with
– heat exchangers (fan coils)
– cooling ceilings
– cooling surfaces.
In systems with relatively small pressure losses in the distribution pipes.
Two-pipe heating systems with thermostatic valves and
– a dimensioned pump head lower than 2 metres
– dimensioned for natural circulation
– small pressure losses in those parts of the system through which the total quantity of water flows
(for example boiler, heat exchanger and distribution pipe up to the first branching) or
– modified to a high differential temperature between flow pipe and return pipe (for example district heating).
Underfloor heating systems with thermostatic valves.
One-pipe heating systems with thermostatic valves or pipe balancing valves.
Primary circuit pumps in systems with small pressure losses in the primary circuit.
In heating systems with a fixed system characteristic, for example domestic hot-water systems, the control of the
pump according to a constant return-pipe temperature may be relevant.
FLOW
can be used with advantage to control the maximum circulation flow.
LIMIT
If an external controller is installed, the pump is able to change from one constant curve to another, depending
on the value of the external signal.
The pump can also be set to operate according to the max. or min. curve, like an uncontrolled pump:
The max. curve mode can be used in periods in which a maximum flow is required. This operating mode is for
instance suitable for hot-water priority.
The min. curve mode can be used in periods in which a minimum flow is required. This operating mode is for
instance suitable for manual night setback if Automatic Night Setback is not desired.
In systems with pumps operating in parallel.
The multi-pump function enables the control of single-head pumps connected in parallel (two pumps) and
twin-head pumps without the use of external controllers. The pumps in a multi-pump system communicate with
each other via the wireless GENIair connection.
