ensor Designation USDT 2004 accepts two different sensor types or a reference
value . User can program a constant reference temperature instead of a sensor output.
The factory-preset sensor is the thermistor (KTY 10) type. The KTY 10 tank sensor,
white wire, should be used in a conditioned environment and will not be permanently damaged up

Sensor wires can receive electromagnetic pulses, which can result in a wrong temperature
reading. The USDT 2004 reads sensor values every 50 ms. It can bundle several readings and
process their average.
AV 1 Sensor 1 average
AV 2 Sensor 2 average
AV 3 Sensor 3 average
The numbers of samples can be programmed from 4 to 20. The impedance characteristics of
sensors temperature dependencies are represented in the following table:

rost and overheating protections - Pump operation can be manipulated by the user in
both collector stagnation and frost conditions. The set-up is possible in System Guard,
SGUARD, domain.
Overheating protection The Circulation pump may not be powerful enough to circulate the
heat transfer fluid in the solar loop with air pockets. User can program the pump to stop at a
desired maximum collector temperature, shown by ? symbol, to protect the pump. The USDT
2004 will take over the normal operation after the temperature decreases to an acceptable
working temperature, shown as =. This feature is disabled at 299

F set point.
Frost Protection Frost protection in the sun-belt region is provided by circulating water in the
solar loop when freezing conditions exist. Regardless of the temperature difference ? T, the
