1. General information about our surface storage heaters

With our variety of electric surface storage heaters, you can find the right solution 

for your needs in any spatial situation. The TECHNOTHERM partial thermal-stor-

age heaters are available as additional or transitional heating for all rooms in 

the living area, with the exception of the special cases stated in the safety in-

structions. They are designed for continuous operation. Prior to dispatch, all our 

products undergo an extensive function, safety and quality test. We guarantee 

a constructive design complying with all currently applicable international, Eu-

ropean and German safety standards and rules. You can see this in the labelling 

of our products with the well-known certification marks: “TÜV-GS”, “SLG-GS”, 

“Keymark” and “CE”. Our heaters are evaluated in accordance with the interna-

tionally applicable lEC-regulations. The manufacture of our heaters is constantly 

supervised by a state-accredited test centre.

This heater can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and by phys-

ically, sensory or mentally restricted persons if they are supervised or given in-

structions on safe use and understand the hazards involved as it does not require 

any experience or knowledge. This device is not a toy for children to play with! 

Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be carried out by children without su-

pervision. The use of heat radiators is to be given a particular duty of care by su-

pervisors. Children under the age of 3 are to be kept away unless they are contin-

ually supervised. Children between the age of 3 and 8 are only allowed to switch 

the heater on or off if they are supervised or given instructions on safe use and 

understand the hazards involved, provided that it has been placed or installed in 

its intended normal operating position. Children between the age of 3 and 8 shall 

not plug in, regulate and clean the heater or perform user maintenance.

Caution: Some parts of the product can become very hot and cause burns. Pay 

particular attention when children and vulnerable people are present

Warning! this device has to be grounded

This device may only be operated using alternating current and the operating voltage indicated on

2.1 User Manuel VPS RF Model
2.1.1 Setting the Room Thermostat

Press the 

receiver button

 for more than 3 seconds, until the indicator light begins to flash. Subsequent-

ly press the transmitter key in the configuration mode. (see User Manual Receiver) As soon as the indi-

cator light stops flashing the two products are assigned.

2.1.2 Setting the sender

Press  the  receiver  button  for  at  least  3  seconds  until  the  indicator  light  starts  flashing.

 

Two modes of operation are possible.

Slow flashing:    

On\Off switch

 

Fast flashing:    

instigator

To switch the mode again, press the key briefly. Take the transmitter into the Configuration mode (see 

user manual transmitter). Check that the indicator light is no longer flashing.

Application Example

The use of a room thermostat in combination with a opening detector is ideal, because the opening de-

tector will detect if a window is open and will automatically switch to frost protection. By pressing the 

receiver button for approximately 10 seconds, you can change the relay´s setting. You know the setting 

is changed as soon as the signal light stops flashing. 

2.1.3 Deleting Allocations

To delete the setting simply press the receiver key for approximately 30 seconds until you see the recei-

ver light flash briefly. All transmitters are now deleted.

6.1 Assembly instruction

This Manual is very important and has to be kept at a safe place at all times. Be sure to hand this ma-

nual to any other succeeding owner of the device. The device comes with a power plug that has to be 

plugged into an outlet.

The device is designed to be connected to 230V (nominal) alternating current (AC).

7.1 Wall Installation

When installing the device, the safety distance must be strictly adhered to, so that flammable materials 

can not ignite. Install the device to a wall which is heat resistant up to 90 ° C.

• Due to possible fire hazard the safety distances are observed during assembly:

Side walls of the heater to any masonry: 

 

 5 cm

Side walls of the heater to combustible materials:   10 cm

Distance radiator to the floor:  

 

 

25 cm

arranged spaced upper radiator limit to about components or covers (. Eg window):

  

 

 

 

 

flammable   15 cm

  

 

 

 

 

nonflammable 10 cm

To prevent inflammable materials from catching fire be sure to keep the prescribed safety distance 

when installing the device. Mount the device to a wall that is fireproof up to 90 °C.

The safety distance to the floor should be 25 cm, and at least 10 cm to all other devices. Furthermore 

there has to be safety distance of approximately 50 cm between the ventilation grille, windowsills, roof 

slopes and ceilings.

If you want to install the device in your bathroom, be sure to keep it out of reach for people taking a 

shower or a bath.

When mounting the device to the wall, be sure to keep to the dimensions as indicated in the illustration 

on page 11. Drill two or three (if available) 7 mm holes and attach the corresponding plug. Then screw 

the 4 x 25 mm screws into the holes, leaving a distance of 1-2mm between the head of the screw and 

the wall.

Hang the device in the two or three fittings and tighten it down. See also the additional mounting infor-

mation at the following pages!

9. Installation of Electricity

The device was developed for an electrical voltage of 230 V(nominal) and an alternating current of (AC) 

50 Hz. The electrical installation may only be performed according to the user manual and only by a 

qualified Electrician. The device was designed to be used with termination and the connection cable 

has to be plugged into an appropriate socket at all times. (Notice Permanent cables may not be used)

The distance between the receptacle and the device hast to be at least 10cm. The connection line may 

not touch the device at any time.

10. Regulation

From 01.01.2018, the EU conformity of these devices is additionally linked to the fulfillment of the 

Ecodesign requirements 2015/1188.

 

The installation and commissioning of the devices is only permitted in conjunction with external room 

temperature controllers that fulfill the following functions:

 

• 

electronic room temperature control

 

and has at least one of the following properties:

 

• 

room temperature control, with presence detection

• 

room temperature control, with open window detection

• 

with distance control option

• 

with adaptive start control

The following room temperature controller systems

• 

RF Receiver together with the  TPF-Eco Thermostat (Art.Nr.: 750 000 641) and the Eco-Interface 

(Art.Nr.750 000 640) or

• 

DSM-Thermostat with the DSM-Interface (Art.No.:911 950 101)

• 

TDI- Thermostat / plus-Thermostat

 

from Technotherm meet the following requirements and therefore the ErP Directive: 

• 

electronic room temperature control plus week timer (RF/DSM/TDI)

• 

room temperature control, with open window detection (DSM/plus/TDI) 

• 

with distance control option (DSM/RF)

• 

with adaptive start control (DSM/plus/TDI)

Use of the VPS / VP Standard range (without external/internal thermostat control) is only permit-

ted on feet.

Installation of the receiver and the interfaces see separate instructions. For customer service - see last 

page.

 

Failure to comply with these requirements will result in the loss of the CE mark.
