3 Terms and definitions
The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 42389.1 and the following are applicable to this document.
3. 1
Application effect
The comprehensive performance of electric heating systems in terms of energy conservation, operational economy, and user experience.
3.2
Adaptive Start Control
The function of automatically selecting the optimal heating timing and starting heating to ensure reaching the target area temperature within the set time.
3.3Room temperature control with presence detection with personnel identification
The function of automatically lowering the set temperature of the building (room) when no one is detected indoors.
3.4Room temperature control with open window detection with window recognition
The function of automatically switching the electric heating system to antifreeze mode or limiting its energy consumption to the duty mode level when recognizing the opening of doors and windows.
Note: The door and window switch sensor used can be installed in any of the following ways:
a) Integration with products;
b) External to the product;
c) Pre installed in the building structure;
d) Combine the installation methods of a), b), and c).
3.5
Self learning
Intelligent function that can automatically program and set high and low temperature periods based on the user's habits of using the electric heating system.
3.6
Room temperature control with weekly timer
Supports 7 × 24-hour temperature setting in different time periods, and can automatically adjust heating output according to the settings to maintain comfortable indoor temperature.
3.7
Room temperature control with daytime timer
Supports 24-hour temperature setting in different time periods, and can automatically adjust heating output according to the settings to maintain comfortable indoor temperature.
3.8
Working time limitation
The function of automatically shutting down the electric heating system after the preset time is reached.
4 Categories
According to the heating area of the electric heating system:
a) Micro electric heating system, which refers to an electric heating system with a heating area not exceeding 200 m2;
b) Small and above electric heating systems, i.e. electric heating systems with a heating area greater than 200 m2.
