SSP / SST – SS Manifold Pump / Mixing Panels
Function
This panel can provide mixing (SST series only), distribution, and zoning for a wide variety of hydronic heating applications.
The effectiveness of the system is dependant on the system being designed and installed correctly. Proper consideration
of factors such as BTU loads, outdoor design temperature, indoor design temperature, room set-point temperature(s),
differential fluid temperatures, head loss, flow rates, and transfer capacities of the heat emitters is critical.
Once these factors have been considered and the system requirements determined, these can then be evaluated and
compared to the zone control panel capabilities (refer to pages 6-11).
Note:
4
This panel does not regulate or monitor the operating safety limit temperatures of the fluid leaving the heat source.

SSP / SST – SS Manifold Pump / Mixing Panels
Assembly
Screw the valve adapter onto the valve and hand tighten.
Align the actuator and push down until it snaps it into place.
Make all necessary electrical connections according to the
diagram.
Standby
After the voltage has been removed for 20 min. the actuator
is still in a standby mode. The valve is closed, however when
a voltage is applied again the actuator can respond rapidly.
Signal Noise
The actuator reacts only to voltages starting from 1V DC to
avoid reaction to signal noise.
“First open” function
The actuator is delivered in an open position. When power
is applied, the calibration process cancels the first open
function, ie. the actuator is ready for operation in ~6 min.
Automatic calibration
When voltage is first applied and approx. twice each day the
actuator performs a calibration process, in order to adjust
itself to the valve. During this process the actuator opens and
closes completely, and important points are stored. During
this process the control voltage is ignored. If the results
deviate then the calibration is repeated. After calibrating
itself the actuator response is proportional to the applied
voltage.
Adaption check
After releasing the first open function and commissioning,
the adaption between the valve and the actuator can be
inspected. When no voltage is applied, the function indicator
should be elevated slightly. It should not be flush with the
body nor should the indicator region be visible.
Function indicator
The current operating status can be seen at the function
indicator.
Disassembly
Press down on the lower front cover button and pull up the
actuator. Do not use force to open the body.
To prevent removal of the
actuator from its mount
simply remove the front
cover.
Notes
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard. A contact separation of
at least 3 mm in all poles must be incorporated in the fixed
wiring. Ensure the power supply is isolated via a safety
transformer. The actuator is not protected against valve leaks.

Panel Control Sequence
1.
When power is provided to the 110V terminals connected to the power module 1 , and the 3-way switch is placed in the
“ON” position the red LED will be lit, indicating that the panel is powered with 110V.
2.
The Bypass function for the 3-way switch is for troubleshooting purposes only. Only switch to the Bypass position if
the red and green LED’s on the power module do not light up during a call for heat. Please refer to the troubleshooting
section of the manual for further details.
3.
When the thermostat calls for heat, its internal 24V contacts close, the auxiliary terminals close, and the pump turns on.
4.
SST panels only - As the circulator
on the user settings (page 11).
5.
When the requirements of the thermostat are met, the internal contacts of the thermostat open, the auxiliary contacts

Troubleshooting
Problem
Check / Verify
Possible Cause
Low Temperature Within Room
Misplacement of thermostat location within
room.
Make sure thermostat is not being influenced
by an additional heat source, such as lighting
or air duct.
Low temperature setting of the thermostat.
Adjust the temperature setting on thermostat.
The system fails to turn on if the thermostat is
set to high setting
Thermostat may be out of calibration or
defective. Replace thermostat.
The electronic actuator fails to open during a
call for heat
The electronic actuator may be improperly
seated or may be defective. Replace if
necessary.
Low supply mixed fluid temperature.
Adjust the power box to the appropriate
setting.
Wiring from heat source to panel.
Check that the wiring is done properly. Consult
qualified electrician prior to alteration of wiring
between heat source and panel.
Output of heat source is unable to meet
demand of heating system.
Compare output of heat source to the
requirements of the heating system.
The red and green LED’s on the power module The zone valve controller may be defective or
do not light up during a call for heat.
there is no power being supplied to the panel
or the power module is not on. If this is so,
switch the power module to Bypass mode.
The green LED will be lit, indicating that the
panel is powered with 110V and the pump will
run. This will provide constant circulation so
long as there is still 110V power to the panel.
High Temperature Within Room
24
Circulator is not on during a call for heat. (Use
a stethoscope or similar device to verify)
The power box or circulator may be defective.
When zone valves are installed outside the
panel a qualified electrician should verify 24V
power is supplied to the thermostats and
actuator. The power module only supplies
enough power for a thermostat; any external
actuators must be powered from an external
24V transformer.
The 24V transformer may have failed. If this
so, switch the power module to Bypass mode.
This will provide constant circulation so long
as there is still 110V power to the panel. Prior
to Bypass mode selection, any zone valves
must be opened manually to avoid deadheading of the circulator.
Check current setting of the thermostat.
Adjust the temperature setting on thermostat
to a lower setting.
High supply mixed fluid temperature.
Adjust the Thermostatic Mixing Valve to the
appropriate settings.
Installed electronic actuators remain open
after the thermostat is satisfied.
An obstruction inside the zone valve is not
allowing the actuator to fully close or the
thermostat is still calling for heat.
Bypass may be on.
Check that the Power switch on the power box
is in the “ON” position.

Installation, Operation, and Maintenance
SSP / SST – SS Manifold Pump / Mixing Panels
Maintenance
Yearly maintenance should be done on the panel prior to each heating season to ensure the efficient and accurate operation
of the panel.
Complete the following check list:
• Raise all thermostats to cause a call for heat within the system. Verify that the circulator starts, via a stethoscope or
similar device.
• Confirm that the Auxiliary Contacts close.
• If applicable, verify that each zone valve opens during the call for heat – the actuator should be warm to the touch, the
LED will light up (on 5620x models) and the white indicator should rise from the top of the actuator.
• Return all thermostats to a desirable setting.
You are now ready for another heating season with HeatLink.
