The new AFRISO SolarControl solar controller was designed for system-independent control and monitoring of thermal solar systems; it is also ideal for retrofitting of existing solar systems, for example in single-family or two-family homes.
The SolarControl microprocessor controls and visualises all program functions (solar control, temperature limitation, cooling down mode, defrosting function, frost protection and holiday function). The temperature probe and the pump are supplied directly via the unit; no additional wiring is required. A conductivity probe can be connected so that it is possible to monitor for the accumulation of liquid in the collector tank for solar liquid. Signals from alarm equipment (e.g. for system overpressure or pressure loss) can be connected via four digital inputs; customisable text messages can be assigned to the signals. All warning and alarm signals are logged in the memory, displayed on the colour display with red backlight and signalled via an audible alarm. The audible alarm can be acknowledged with a button. SolarControl is fast and easy to commission, program and operate via a text-based menu system (English, French, German). The solar controller in wall mounting housing made of impact-resistant plastic (ABS) features a graphical LC display with multiple backlight colours; it is supplied with AC 230 V and suitable for ambient temperatures from 0 to 45 °C. The scope of delivery includes probes for the solar accumulator and collector. SolarControl can be equipped with an optional EnOcean wireless module for integration into building automation systems.
