THE LCX 400 FEATURES

General

• Precise digital differential controller for efficient heat collection
• Bar Graph display of collector (manifold) temperature
• Adjustable Delta T (DT) differential from 3-10oC
• Digital display of collector (manifold) temperature
  Bar Graph display of instantaneous power collected in kW, with auto-adjusting scale
• Anti-frost thermostat for system protection
• Digital display of return (system) temperature
• 24-hr clock
• Maximum system temperature thermostat
• Digital display of Tank 1 and Tank 2 temperatures
• Two presentable divert temperatures providing a three-user zone system
• Daily maximum / minimum temperature recorder for all its sensors
• Digital display of daily collected energy in kilo-calories
• Pump control matrix providing total user versatility
• Two independent time-thermostats for heat boosting
• Graphical display of collector and tank temperatures as well as the energy gain for the current and the previous day, based on an average reading taken every 10 minutes
• Graphical display of collector daily maximum temperatures and total daily energy gain for the last 8 weeks
• Status screen for indication of the current state of inputs and outputs of the collector
• Manual override of outputs for system testing
• Alarm indicator for warning in case of sensor failure or over-temperature
• Plug-removable controller for ease of installation
• Plug-in sensors for ease of installation

Sensors

• The LCX 400 is supplied with four sensors (Collector, Return, Tank 1, Tank 2).
• If longer cables are needed, sensors are available with extended cable lengths.
• Alternatively, sensor extenders are available in a variety of lengths. If the sensors need to be extended, but factory-made extenders are not available, they can be extended using a suitable 4 core or 3 core cable.

Power Connection

• P1 - Hot Water Pump 1
• P2 - Hot Water Pump 2
• P3 - Hot Water Pump 3
• A1 - Auxiliary Heater 1
• A2 - Auxiliary Heater 2
• This device should be properly grounded. Flexible wires simplify connection to the terminals. All connections should be secure and adequately tightened. It is good practice to keep mains cables away from sensor cables and other low voltage signal cables.
• AUX1 + AUX2 : MAX 3.5A (400W)
• PUMP1 + PUMP2 + PUMP3 : MAX 2.0A (250W)
• TOTAL LOAD : 5.5A(750W)
• If the Auxiliary outputs are being used to drive a water heater element, then a mains contractor (Relay) should be used as illustrated.
