What is involved in setting the drainback option (ODB) on my SmartMaxx-DHWPlus controller?
avwFm87mDz2012-09-11T15:51:29+00:00What is involved in setting the drainback option (ODB) on my SmartMaxx-DHWPlus controller? In the submenu, switch ODB from “OFF” to “ON.” Four new items will appear in the submenu: tDTO, tFill, tSTB, and OBST. Some experimentation may be necessary to get these settings correct for your system.
- tDTO (time period switch-on) is the amount of time the DT O must be met before the controller will turn the pump on. The factory setting is 60 seconds. The collector/tank temperature differential must be met for 60 seconds straight before the controller will trigger the pump.
- tFill (filling time) is the amount of time the pump runs at 100% to push the heat transfer fluid up and over the top of the system piping. The factory setting is 5 minutes.
- tSTB (stabilization time) is the amount of time the controller will ignore the DT F after it changes over to minimum pump speed. The factory setting is 2 minutes. This time is set aside because running the pump at 100% may cool the collectors below the “off” temperature differential. So, instead of shutting the system down as soon as it comes on, tSTB allows a time period for the collectors to stabilize at the minimum pump speed.
- OBST (booster option) can be turned on if you have a second pump plumbed in series with the first. The second pump will then only come on during the filling time (tFill).
- The EM setting will be set to a fixed value of 200°F.
- DT O will be set to a fixed value of 20°F.
- DT F will be set to a fixed value of 8°F.
- DT S will be set to a fixed value of 30°F.

How Do I Get My SmartMaxxDHWPlus Controller from German to English?
avwFm87mDz2012-09-07T14:26:09+00:00How do I get my SmartMaxxDHWPlus controller from German to English? With the controller plugged in, push the “+” button until you reach the end of the main menu. You will see the time displayed under the German “ZEIT.” Then push the “+” button for about 3 seconds straight until the controller goes to the submenu. “ANL” is the first German code in the submenu. Once you have accessed the submenu, press the “+” button until you reach the end of the submenu (a version number). Then press the “-“ button three times to go back to language (German “SPR”). Press the “OK’ button. While “SET” is blinking, press the “-“ button once to go from “dE” (German) to “En” (English). Press the “OK” button again. The code displayed now should be “LANG” which means you are back to English.
What Does SRCC OG-100 & OG-300 refer to?
avwFm87mDz2012-09-05T15:46:48+00:00What Does SRCC OG-100 & OG-300 refer to? OG-100 is the SRCC certification for solar thermal collectors. OG-300 is the SRCC certification for solar thermal systems. The federal tax credit and some state incentives require only OG-100 certification. Other states and organizations require OG-300 system certification to collect incentives. All of our flat plate and evacuated tube collectors are OG-100 certified. We also have an excellent line of OG-300 certified kits. When you chose a system from us, select a kit that will qualify for all available incentives in your area.
