Utangulizi
The COMPUTHERM E280 Wi-Fi Thermostat allows you to control connected heating or cooling devices, such as boilers or air conditioning systems, via your smartphone or tablet over the internet. This thermostat is compatible with any two-wire thermostatic connector and supports both 24V and 230V control circuits. It is particularly useful for managing heating/cooling in homes, apartments, or holiday residences, especially when occupancy schedules are irregular.
Equipped with a connectable floor temperature sensor, the E280 is ideal for controlling underfloor heating systems. It features two potential-free relays that can operate simultaneously, allowing independent control of two devices. This enables the thermostat to manage a pump and a zone valve in addition to the main boiler, facilitating multi-zone heating systems without requiring a separate zone control system.

Kuweka na Kuweka
Muhimu: Installation should only be performed by a qualified electrician or heating engineer. Ensure the main power supply is disconnected before commencing any wiring.
1. Kuweka Thermostat
- Choose a suitable location on an interior wall, away from direct sunlight, drafts, or heat sources, at approximately 1.5 meters (5 feet) from the floor.
- Carefully separate the front panel from the backplate of the thermostat.
- Mark the drilling points on the wall using the backplate as a template.
- Drill holes, insert wall plugs, and secure the backplate to the wall using the provided screws.
2. Viunganisho vya Wiring
The Computherm E280 features two potential-free relays (K1 and K2) for controlling heating/cooling systems and an optional floor sensor.
Picha: Nyuma view of the Computherm E280 thermostat, detailing the terminal block for electrical connections, including power input, relay outputs (K1 and K2), and the floor sensor input.
- Power Supply (L, N): Connect the live (L) and neutral (N) wires of your 230V AC power supply.
- Relay K1 (COM, NO, NC): This relay is typically used for controlling the main heating/cooling device (e.g., boiler).
- COM: Common terminal.
- HAPANA: Normally Open (connect to this for heating applications where the circuit closes to activate).
- NC: Normally Closed (connect to this for cooling applications where the circuit opens to activate).
- Relay K2 (COM, NO): This relay can be used for an auxiliary device, such as a pump or zone valve.
- COM: Common terminal.
- HAPANA: Kawaida Fungua.
- Sensorer ya Sakafu: Connect the wires from the external floor temperature sensor to the designated terminals.
3. Mkutano wa Mwisho
- Once wiring is complete and secure, carefully reattach the front panel of the thermostat to the backplate.
- Restore power to the system. The thermostat display should illuminate.
Maagizo ya Uendeshaji
