- Compatibility: Compatible with all COMAP M30 RTH bodies, as well as Heimeier and Oventrop integrated valve radiators.
3. Setup and Installation
The COMAP Senso RI Thermostatic Head is designed for straightforward installation. Ensure your heating system is compatible with an M30 x 1.5 connection before proceeding.
Compatibility Check:
- Verify that your existing radiator valve body has an M30 x 1.5 thread.
- This thermostatic head is compatible with COMAP M30 RTH bodies, Heimeier, and Oventrop integrated valve radiators.
Installation Steps:
- Ensure the heating system is depressurized or the radiator valve is closed to prevent water leakage during installation.
- If replacing an existing head, carefully unscrew and remove the old thermostatic head from the valve body.
- Align the COMAP Senso RI Thermostatic Head with the M30 x 1.5 thread on the radiator valve body.
- Screw the thermostatic head onto the valve body by hand. Tighten firmly but do not overtighten. No special tools are required for this step.
- Once installed, the system can be repressurized, or the radiator valve can be opened.
Note: For detailed instructions specific to your radiator valve body, refer to its respective manual.
4. Operating Instructions
The COMAP Senso RI Thermostatic Head allows you to control the temperature of your room by adjusting the heat output of the radiator.
Temperature Adjustment:
- Rotate the numbered dial on the thermostatic head to select your desired temperature setting. Higher numbers typically correspond to warmer temperatures.
- The liquid sensor within the head will react to the room temperature and adjust the valve opening to maintain the selected setting.
Temperature Limitation Function:
The integrated limitation ring allows you to set a specific temperature range or a fixed temperature.
- To set a maximum or minimum limit, or to fix the temperature, manipulate the captive ring located on the front of the thermostatic head.
- Specific instructions for adjusting the limitation ring are typically provided with the product packaging or can be found on the manufacturer's website. This adjustment does not require any tools.
5. Maintenance
The COMAP Senso RI Thermostatic Head is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance.
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the thermostatic head with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check for any signs of damage or loose connections. Ensure the head rotates smoothly.
- No internal user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.
6. Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your COMAP Senso RI Thermostatic Head, consider the following common points:
- Radiator not heating:
- Ensure the thermostatic head is set to a sufficiently high temperature.
- Check if the radiator valve is fully open underneath the thermostatic head.
- Verify that the central heating system is operational.
- Bleed the radiator if it feels cold at the top and warm at the bottom, indicating trapped air.
- Room too cold/warm despite setting:
- Ensure the thermostatic head is not obstructed by curtains or furniture, which can affect its ability to sense room temperature accurately.
- Check if the temperature limitation ring is set correctly.
- Head feels loose:
- Gently re-tighten the thermostatic head onto the valve body by hand. Do not use tools.
If problems persist after checking these points, contact a qualified heating technician or COMAP customer support for assistance.
