Primary Pump Command

In order to avoid tensions in the heat exchanger and for calcification protection, a primary pump can be installed. This reduces   the primary supply temperature "PriSupTemp" below the district heating supply temperature "SysSupTemp". For this configuration the heating valve must be a three way valve.


Fig. 9.   Primary Pump Control

For the primary pump the same conditions apply as for the secondary pump, except the maximum temperature thermostat condition (see Secondary Pump Command section).

Start-up hint

Take care that the primary pump always starts earlier than the secondary pump. The primary pump start-up delay must be shorter than the secondary pump start-up delay. The secondary pump must stop later than the primary pump.
