Danfoss ECtemp 532
Electronic Thermostat
Introduction
ECtemp 532 is an electronic thermostat provided with a 2-pole switch, a room
sensor to control the room temperature, and an additional floor sensor to
limit the maximum
floor temperature. It can be either flush-mounted or surface-mounted.
The thermostat has a button for adjusting the temperature setting with a scale
from 5-35°C. Furthermore, it has a LED indicator showing standby periods
(green light) and
heating periods (red light).

1.2 Safety Instructions
Make sure the mains supply to the thermostat is turned off before
installation.
IMPORTANT: When the thermostat is used to control a floor heating element
in connection with a wooden floor or similar material, always use a floor
sensor, and never set the maximum floor temperature to more than 35°C.
Please also note the following:
- The installation of the thermostat must be done by an authorized and qualified installer according to local regulations.
- The thermostat must be connected to a power supply via an all-pole disconnection switch.
- The sensor is to be considered as live voltage. Have this in mind if the sensor must be extended.
- Always connect the thermostat to the continuous power supply.
- Do not expose the thermostat to moisture, water, dust, and excessive heat.
Mounting Instructions
Please observe the following placement guidelines:
| Place the thermostat at a suitable height on the wall (typically
80-170cm.).
---|---
| In wet rooms, always place the thermostat according to local regulations on
IP classes.
| Do not place the thermostat on the inner side of an exterior wall.
| Always install the thermostat at least 50 cm. from windows and doors.
| Do not place the thermostat in a way that it will be exposed to direct
sunlight.
| Note: A floor sensor enables a more accurate temperature control and is
recommended in all floor heating applications and
mandatory under wooden floors to reduce the risk of over-heating the
floor.
- Place the floor sensor in a conduit in an appropriate place where it is not exposed to sunlight or draft from door openings.
- Equally distant and >2cm from two heating cables.
- The conduit should be flush with the floor surface -countersink the conduit if necessary.
- Route the conduit to the connection box.
- The bending radius of the conduit must be min 50mm.
Follow the steps below to mount the thermostat:
-
Open the thermostat:
• Press the release tab in the bottom of the thermostat using a flat object.
• Carefully detach the front cover.
• Carefully detach the frame. -
Connect the thermostat according to the connection diagram.
The screen of the heating cable must be connected to the earth conductor of the power supply cable by using a separate connector.
Note: Always install the floor sensor in a conduit in the floor. -
Set the maximum floor temperature between 20° and 50°C by turning the screw with temperature indications in the upper left corner.
-
Mount and reassemble the thermostat:
• Fasten the thermostat to a flush-mounting box or a surface-mounting box by driving the screws through the holes in each side of the thermostat.
• Install the frame and front cover in the reverse order of disassembly. -
Turn on the power supply.
Settings
How to change the minimum and maximum floor temperatures
- Remove the adjustment button.
- Move the pins to the desired positions.
- Put the adjustment button back in place.
Note: Please be aware of the following:
- The floor temperature is measured where the floor sensor is placed.
- The temperature of the bottom of a wooden floor can be up to 10 degrees higher than the top.
- Floor manufacturers often specify the max temperature on the top surface of the floor (usually 27-28˚C).
- By default, the maximum floor temperature is set to 35°C.
- Always use a floor sensor or a room + floor sensor combination to control floor heating. Without a floor sensor, the temperature control may be less accurate and you risk overheating the floor.
