Possible Causes

Incorrect wiring between Kripsol heater and automation relay, Wrong control mode selected on heater, Automation set to wrong heater type, Open circuit on remote demand terminals

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power to both the heater and automation system before working on control wiring.

  • Verify mode: On the Kripsol control panel, ensure the heater is set to REMOTE or EXTERNAL mode if controlled by automation.
  • Check wiring: Compare the wiring between the automation relay and Kripsol remote terminals to both manuals. Correct any miswiring.
  • Test demand signal: With a multimeter, verify that the automation closes the contact or provides the correct signal when heat is requested.
  • Bypass test: Temporarily install a jumper across the Kripsol remote terminals to simulate a call for heat. If the heater runs, the issue is in the automation or wiring.
