System Overview
To achieve the best control from the unit and thermostat, we recommend they
are used with the SALUS system receiver configured to RX1. The system receiver
will turn the boiler on or off when requested by the thermostat. See your
boiler receiver manual for more information about the RX1 configuration.
**** The unit is modulating, which means it opens or closes partially or 100%
depending on the relationship between the actual room temperature and the
required room temperature measured by the VS10/20RF.
**** Up to 6 units can be connected to a VS10RF/VS20RF.
Checking the compatibility of your heating system
If you can not see any thread on the valve and it looks like this picture, you
may be able to use the RA adapter supplied.
TRV10 fits 30×1,5 mm thread.
Preparing to Pair the Unit
-
Press and hold the button on the Universal Gateway for five seconds. This puts the Universal Gateway in pairing mode. See your Universal Gateway manual for more information.
-
Ensure the wireless thermostat is powered up and ready for pairing. See your thermostat manual for more information.
-
If you are using the optional RX10RF wireless boiler receiver configured for remote boiler switching, ensure this has been powered up and the red LED has gone from flashing to steady. See your boiler receiver manual for more information.
Pairing the Unit
Press and hold the pairing button for 10 seconds. You can pair up to 6 units
with one thermostat. Pair the units room by room.
You have paired the unit to the thermostat when the unit LED goes off. Once
paired, the unit operates in automatic mode and receives room temperatures
from the thermostat.
Product Compliance & Safety Information
INTRODUCTION
The TRV10RFM is a battery-powered, mini-size thermostatic radiator valve (TRV)
controller using ZigBee wireless communication. Simply replace the existing,
passive head on the standard radiator valve with the TRV10RFM (referred to
from now on as the unit). Use the unit with the VS10RF or VS20RF series of
wireless thermostats and a Universal Gateway.
Product Compliance
This product is CE compliant and meets the following EC Directives: Electro- Magnetic Compatibility directive 2014/30/EU; 2014/53/EU and 2011/65/EU.
Safety Information
Use in accordance with the regulations. The unit is to be used for the control
of room temperature inside the house.
Intallaton
This accessory must be fitted by a competent person, and installation must
comply with the guidance, standards and regulations applicable to the country
or state where the product is installed. Failure to comply with the relevant
standards could lead to prosecution
Checking the compatibility of your heating system
The SALUS TRV10RFM is compatible with the majority of thermostatic radiator
valves. Before fitting, please check your valve is suitable for use with the
SALUS TRV.
Measure the thread diameter
(must measure 30mm)| Measure the pin length of the valve when it is in the
open position.
(must measure between 13-16mm)
Installing the Unit
-
Screw the units nut (finger tight) to the radiator valve and check that the LED is solid red.
-
Remove the battery door on the side of the unit.
-
Insert the batteries, ensuring correct orientation.
-
The LED on the unit flashes green then flashes red before changing to solid red. When it is solid red, place the unit over the radiator valve using the mounting ring if needed:
-
Press any button on the unit to adapt it to the radiator valve. Once all adaptation noise and LED activity has stopped, the unit is ready to pair with your wireless thermostat.
-
The unit is now ready for pairing to the SALUS thermostat. You may now start the pairing process.
Leaving the Network
Once paired to a thermostat, press and hold the pairing button on the unit for
10 seconds.
The red LED come on together for one second
Note: After you have deleted the unit from the wireless network, you must
reinstall the TRV see Installing the unit.
Using the Unit
Using the Unit
Auto Lock Function
Auto lock function is disabled until you have gone through the pairing
process. After pairing, the TRV will auto lock after 5 minute if no buttons
have been pressed.
Unlocking the Buttons
To unlock the buttons, press the pairing and close buttons together for 3
seconds.
Opening the Valve Manually
Press the open button for 3 seconds. The LED flashes green once and the valve
opens.
Closing the Valve Manually
Press the close button for 3 seconds. The LED flashes red once and the valve
closes.
Entering Fail Safe Mode
In fail safe mode, the unit opens the valve 25% for water flow to maintain
room temperature.
To enter fail safe mode, press and hold the open and close buttons together
for 3 seconds.
To exit fail safe mode, press the:
- Pairing button to put the unit in automatic mode
- Open button for 3 seconds to open the valve
- Close button for 3 seconds to close the valve
Restoring Factory Default Settingse
Press the pairing, open, and close buttons together for 10 seconds.
Protecting against Frost
When you have manually closed the valve, the unit automatically enables frost
protection. Frost protection starts only when the temperature in the room
drops below the frost temperature setpoint. The unit does all this
automatically when connected to a thermostat and you don’t have to do
anything.
Detecting Open Windows
The unit checks the rate of temperature drop in the room in which it is
located. If the drop is rapid, it assumes a window in the room has been
opened. This only works if the unit is paired to the thermostat and is in
automatic mode and the battery in the unit is not low. The unit does all this
automatically when connected to a thermostat and you don’t have to do
anything. It works between 0 and 40⁰C.
Protecting against Lime Scale
Do not leave a valve open for a long time because this could cause a build up
of lime scale. The unit has a lime-scale protection feature to prevent against
this. The valve motor automatically starts once a week if no valve movement
has been detected within a 14- day period. Lime-scale protection will continue
to operate in automatic, manual open, and manual close modes and you don’t
have to do anything.
Auto Adaptation
Once the batteries are inserted into the unit, the red light will appear. If
no keys are pressed it will auto adapt to the valv
