Basic principles of application 116 for ECL Comfort 110
If the measured flow (DHW) temperature (S3) is lower than the desired DHW
temperature, the motorized control valve (M1) is opened gradually and vice versa.
The return temperature (S4) to the district heating supply should not be too high. If so,
the desired flow temperature can be adjusted (typically to a lower value) thus resulting
in a gradual closing of the motorized control valve, i.e. the return temperature will
decrease.
The circulation pump, P1, is ON when the desired flow temperature is higher than 20 °C
(factory setting) or the actual flow temperature (S3) is below 10 °C (factory setting).
Furthermore, a flow switch (FS) signal (terminals 11 + 12) can be applied in order to heat
the DHW separately on DHW demand (DHW tapping, DHW draw-off).
If a supply temperature sensor S2 is connected, the proportional band Xp is adapted
to the actual temperature in order to avoid control instability. In addition, an idle
temperature for the supply temperature can be maintained to minimize the heat-up
time for the DHW.

Setting range Factory setting
10 ... 150 °C 90 °C
Set the allowed max. flow temperature for your system. Adjust the factory setting, if
required.
The setting for ‘Temp. max.’ has higher priority than ‘Temp. min.’.
VI.KT.F6.02 © Danfoss | 2018.04 | 11
Maintenance
The controller automatically changes the desired flow temperature to obtain an accept-
able return temperature when the return temperature falls below or gets higher than the
set limit.
Influence
‘Gain - min.’ > 0
‘Limit
‘Gain max.’ > 0
Return temperature
‘Gain - max.’ < 0
‘Gain - min.’ < 0
This limitation is based on a PI regulation where P (Gain) responds quickly to deviations
and I (Intgr. time) responds slower and over time removes the small offsets between the
reference and actual measured values. This is done by changing the flow temperature
reference.
If the ‘Gain’ is too high and / or the ‘Intgr. time’ too low, there is a risk of unstable control.
Limit (return temp. limitation) 4030
Setting range Factory setting
10 ... 110 °C 50 °C
Set the return temperature you accept for the system.
Set the acceptable return temperature limit.
When the return temperature falls below or gets higher than the set value, the controller
automatically changes the desired flow temperature to obtain an acceptable return
temperature. The influence is set in lines 4035 and 4036.
A recommended setting value for ‘Limit’ in DHW systems with constant flow has the same
value as the desired DHW temperature.
This prevents that the return temperature limitation is activated when idle (no DHW tapping
/ DHW draw-off).

12 | © Danfoss | 2018.04
Maintenance
Gain - max. (return temp. limitation - max. influence) 4035
Setting range Factory setting
-9.9 ... 9.9 0.0
Determines how much the flow(DHW) temperature will be influenced if the return temperature is
higher than the desired ‘Limit’ (line 4030) (P control).
Influence higher than 0:
The desired flow temperature is increased, when the return temperature gets higher
than the set limit.
Influence lower than 0:
The desired flow temperature is decreased, when the return temperature gets higher
than the set limit.
Example
The return limit is active above 50 °C.
The influence is set to -2.0.
The actual return temperature is 2 degrees too high.
Result:
The desired flow temperature is changed by -2.0 x 2 = -4.0 degrees.
Normally, the setting in line 4035 is lower than 0 in district heating systems to avoid a too
high return temperature.
Typically, the setting in line 4035 is 0 in boiler systems because a higher return temperature
is acceptable (see also line 4036).
Gain - min. (return temp. limitation - min. influence) 4036
Setting range Factory setting
-9.9 ... 9.9 0.0
Determines how much the flow temperature will be influenced if the return temperature is lower than
the desired ‘Limit’ (line 4030) (P control).
Influence higher than 0:
The desired flow temperature is increased, when the return temperature gets below the
set limit.
Influence lower than 0:
The desired flow temperature is decreased, when the return temperature gets below the
set limit.
VI.KT.F6.02 © Danfoss | 2018.04 | 13
Maintenance
Example
The return limit is active below 50 °C.
The influence is set to -3.0.
The actual return temperature is 2 degrees too low.
Result:
The desired flow temperature is changed by -3.0 x 2 = -6.0 degrees.
Normally, the setting in line 4036 is 0 in district heating systems because a lower return
temperature is acceptable.
Typically, the setting in line 4036 is higher than 0 in boiler systems to avoid a too low return
temperature (see also line 4035).
If the return temperature measurement is used as thermometer function only, the settings
in lines 4035 and 4036 should be 0.0.
Intgr. time (time constant for return temp. limitation) 4037
Setting range Factory setting
OFF / 1 ... 50 s 25 s
Controls how fast the return temperature adapts to the desired return temperature (I control).
OFF: The control function is not influenced by the ‘Intgr. time’.
1: The desired temperature is adapted quickly.
50: The desired temperature is adapted slowly.

Control param. (control parameters) 6000
Auto tuning 6173
Setting range Factory setting
ON / OFF OFF
Automatically determines the control parameters for the DHW control. Lines 6184, 6129, 6185, 6186 and
6187 do not need to be set, when using auto tuning.
OFF: Auto tuning is not activated.
ON: Auto tuning is activated.
The auto tuning function automatically determines the control parameters for
DHW control. Thus you do not need to set the lines 6184, 6129 and 6185, as they are
automatically set to the auto tuning function.
Auto tuning is typically used in connection with the installation of the controller, but it
can be activated when needed, e.g. for an extra check of the control parameters.
Before starting the auto tuning, the tapping (draw-o) flow should be adjusted to the
relevant value (see table below).
Recommended DHW tapping (DHW draw-off) load
No. of apartments Heat transfer (kW) Constant tapping load (l / min)
1-2 30-49 3 (or 1 tap 25% open)
3-9 50-79 6 (or 1 tap 50% open)
10-49 80-149 12 (or 1 tap 100% open)
50-129 150 -249 18 (or 1 tap 100% + 1 tap 50% open)
130-210 250-350 24 (or 2 taps 100% open)
If possible, any additional DHW consumption should be avoided during the auto
tuning process. Should the tapping (draw-o) load vary too much, the auto tuning and
controller will return to the default settings.
Auto tuning is activated by setting the function to ON. When the auto tuning is ended,
the function is automatically converted to OFF (default setting). This will be indicated in
the display.
The auto tuning process takes up to 25 minutes.
The motor protection function (line 6174) has to be deactivated during auto tuning.
During auto tuning the circulation pump for tap water must be switched off. This is done
automatically if the pump is controlled by the ECL controller.
Auto tuning is only applicable in connection with valves that are approved for auto tuning,
i.e. the Danfoss types VB 2 and VM 2 with split characteristic.

Maintenance
Motor prot. (motor protection) 6174
Setting range Factory setting
OFF / 10 ... 59 m OFF
Prevents the controller from unstable temperature control (and resulting actuator oscillations). This
can occur at very low load. The motor protection increases the lifetime of all involved components.
OFF: Motor protection is not activated.
10 ... 59: Motor protection is activated after the set activation delay.
Xp1 at 65 C (proportional band) 6184
Setting range Factory setting
1 ... 250 K 50 K
Set the desired proportional band when the supply temperature (S2) is 65 °C.
A higher value will result in a stable but slow control of the flow temperature.
Xp2 at 90 C (proportional band) 6129
Setting range Factory setting
1 ... 250 K 120 K
Set the desired proportional band when the supply temperature (S2) is 90°C.
A higher value will result in a stable but slow control of the flow temperature.
Xp is related to the supply temperature, S2. Typically, when the S2 temperature increases,
Xp must increase. If the S2 sensor is not connected, the Xp value will be constant and equal
Xp1.

A low integration constant will make the controller react fast but with less stability.
Tn - idle (integration time constant) 6096
Setting range Factory setting
5 ... 999 s 120 s
When there is no DHW tapping (DHW draw-off), the saving temperature is slowly
controlled at either S3 or S2 (see also the setting in 6097).
Set a high integration time constant to obtain a slow control.
Set a low integration time constant for a fast control.
M1 run (running time of the motorized control valve) 6186
Setting range Factory setting
5 ... 250 s 15 s
‘M1 run’ is the time it takes the controlled unit to move from fully closed to fully open
position. Set the ‘M1 run’ according to the example.
How to calculate the running time of a motorized control valve
The running time of the motorized control valve is calculated using the following methods:
Seated valves
Running time = Valve stroke (mm) x actuator speed (sec. / mm)
Example: 5.0 mm x 15 sec. / mm = 75 sec.
Rotating valves
Running time = Turning degrees x actuator speed (sec. / degr.)
Example: 90 degr. x 2 sec. / degr. = 180 sec.
VI.KT.F6.02 © Danfoss | 2018.04 | 17
Maintenance
Nz (neutral zone) 6187
Setting range Factory setting
1 ... 9 K 3 K
Set the acceptable flow temperature deviation.
Set the neutral zone to a high value if you can accept a high variation in flow
temperature. When the actual flow temperature is within the neutral zone, the controller
does not activate the motorized control valve.
The neutral zone is symmetrical around the desired flow temperature value, i.e. half the
value is above and half the value is below this temperature.
If you want to tune the PI regulation precisely, you can use the following
method:
Set the ‘Tn’ (integration time constant line 6185) to its max. value (999 sec.).
Decrease the value for the ‘Xp’ (proportional band line 6184) until the system starts
hunting with a constant amplitude (it might be necessary to force the system by setting
an extreme value).
Find the critical time period on the temperature recording or use a stop watch.
Temp. Critical time period
Time
This time period will be characteristic for the system, and you can evaluate the settings from
this critical period.
Tn’ = 0.85 x critical time period
‘Xp= 2.2 x proportional band value in the critical time period.
If the regulation seems to be too slow, you can decrease the proportional band value by
10%.
