Reduced energy consumption and optimum comfort with flexible Autobalancing technology and wired controllers

Finding a flexible and efficient underfloor heating solution in residential buildings requires technology that is compatible with as many devices as possible, controls processes autonomously and saves costs.

The new technology of wired controllers Uponor Base Controllers X-60 and X-80 utilizes advanced algorithms to enable a more efficient system compared to manual balancing, resulting in energy savings. It constantly regulated the amount of energy required to maintain optimum comfort in each room.

Adaptive hydronic balancing is an alternative and recognized method for carrying out hydronic balancing.

X-60 and X-80 adaptive hydronic balancing is TÜV certified.

Basic principle how it works and why it works with 230V thermostats, including those from other manufacturers ¹
 

• 230V thermostats close a circuit when the temperature falls below the setpoint
• The closing of the circuit is detected by the controller and is interpreted as demand and does not go directly to the actuator.
• The controller's algorithm decides when and for how long the actuators are opened or closed.
• The demand signals are recorded and with each heating cycle the opening times of the actuators are recalculated so that the system distributes the energy over time to all zones according to demand.
• Thanks to this concept, 230V thermostats, including those from other manufacturers, can be connected ¹

¹ For adaptive hydronic balancing function 230V thermostats need to fulfil the minimum requirements of two wires for 230V power supply and an output 230V for the demand. See technical documentation for connection requirements for all controller features.
