CLIMATE CONTROL
THERMOCYCLIC CONTROL
did you know...?
Is the thermocyclic regulation of an indoor room based on a
totally new regulation process?
It calculates in advance when the actuator or heater should be switched on or off using a
totally new, unique regulation process that learns the properties of each heating system in
order to anticipate them and use them for its calculations.
The system begins to learn from the first time it is switched on, to provide maximum comfort in
every area and every room. It was patented on 27 January 2000 and successfully introduced in
the European market.
The tests carried out at the Institute of Thermodynamics and Technical Equipment for Buildings
of the Dresden University of Technology were confirmed in practice: the energy savings
were greater than with traditional thermostat regulation.
By means of microoscillations
of ± 0.15 ºC, the
regulator rapidly configures
the desired indoor
temperature.

And how does it actually work?
In a room with doors and windows and with people inside it, it is almost impossible for a
constant temperature to be maintained.
Energy is continually supplied and lost: the doors and windows are opened and closed,
people enter and leave the room, heaters are switched on or candles are lit, the sun shines
through the windows or it rains. The real indoor temperature varies continually: it is not stable.
The daily heating phases intensify these temperature oscillations, often by several degrees.
This inevitably gives rise to an unpleasant ambient temperature.
On the other hand, these temperature changes contain information on the system constants
and the atmospheric conditions (the orientation of the room, climate, use). This is how the
thermocyclic regulation makes its calculations: it uses this information and controls the
oscillations to very fine values. It continually evaluates the movements it has learnt and defined,
and then regulates them in real time.
The user configures the desired comfort temperature using the central control unit or the
interior units, decides how long the night period will last or how the system will be used
during the weekend, and the regulation process is performed on the basis of these.
No further configuration is necessary.
