1. Prodotto finitoview
The IBO S-150 is an electronic control unit designed for managing the circulation pump in a central heating system. Its primary function is to activate the pump when the water temperature exceeds a preset value and deactivate it when the temperature falls below that value. This intelligent control helps to optimize energy consumption and extend the operational lifespan of the pump.
Caratteristiche principali:
- Integrated Thermostat Function: Allows setting specific temperature thresholds for pump activation and deactivation.
- Funzione antigelo: Automatically activates the pump if the ambient temperature drops below 5 °C (41 °F) to prevent freezing within the system.
- Risparmio energetico: Prevents unnecessary pump operation, leading to reduced energy consumption.
- Extended Pump Lifespan: Reduces wear and tear on the pump by operating it only when required.
- Indicatori LED: Two LED displays show current temperature and set stop temperature.
- Interfaccia intuitiva: Simple button controls for setting parameters.

4. Installazione e configurazione
Before proceeding with installation, ensure the main power supply to your central heating system is turned off at the circuit breaker.
4.1. Montaggio del controller
Select a suitable, dry location for mounting the controller, away from direct heat sources or excessive moisture. The controller can be mounted on a wall using appropriate fasteners (not included). Ensure sufficient space for cable connections.
4.2. Collegamento dei cavi
The IBO S-150 controller comes with three main connections:
- Cavo di alimentazione: This cable supplies power to the controller. Plug it into a standard 230V, 50Hz electrical outlet.
- Pump Power Cable: This cable connects the controller to your central heating circulation pump. Ensure the pump is compatible with the controller's specifications (Max load: 6A).
- Temperature Sensor Cable: The ohmic temperature sensor should be placed in a location where it can accurately measure the water temperature of the central heating system. Typically, this is on the return pipe or a designated sensor pocket. Ensure good thermal contact for accurate readings.

After all connections are securely made, restore power to the central heating system.
5. Funzionamento
The IBO S-150 controller features a simple interface with two LED displays and three control buttons.

Figure 3: Front panel of the IBO S-150 controller, showing the LED displays and control buttons.
5.1. Accensione iniziale
Upon initial power-on, the upper LED display will show the current temperature measured by the sensor. The lower LED display will show the currently set 'stop temperature'.
5.2. Pulsanti di controllo
- Pulsante MENU: Used to cycle through and select different settings (stop temperature, start temperature, anti-freeze function). Pressing this button allows you to enter the setting mode for each parameter.
- UP Arrow Button (▲): Used to increase the value of a selected parameter.
- DOWN Arrow Button (▼): Used to decrease the value of a selected parameter.
5.3. Impostazione dei parametri di temperatura
- Premere il tasto MENU button to enter the setting mode. The lower display will start flashing, indicating you can adjust the 'stop temperature'.
- Utilizzare il SU (▲) E GI (▼) arrow buttons to set the desired temperature at which the pump should stop.
- Premere il tasto MENU button again to confirm the 'stop temperature' and move to the 'start temperature' setting. The lower display will flash again.
- Utilizzare il SU (▲) E GI (▼) arrow buttons to set the desired temperature at which the pump should start. This is typically a few degrees higher than the stop temperature to prevent rapid cycling.
- Premere il tasto MENU button a third time to confirm the 'start temperature' and exit the setting mode. The controller will return to displaying the current and stop temperatures.
5.4. Funzione antigelo
The anti-freeze function is automatically engaged. If the temperature measured by the sensor drops below 5 °C (41 °F), the pump will activate regardless of other settings to circulate water and prevent freezing. This function cannot be manually disabled.
6. Manutenzione
The IBO S-150 controller requires minimal maintenance to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
- Pulizia: Periodically wipe the exterior of the controller with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure no liquids enter the device.
- Ispezione dei cavi: Regularly check all connected cables (power, pump, sensor) for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections. Replace damaged cables immediately.
- Posizionamento del sensore: Ensure the temperature sensor remains securely in its intended position and maintains good thermal contact with the heating system pipe.
- Condizioni ambientali: Verify that the controller's operating environment remains within the specified ambient temperature and humidity ranges.
7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
If you encounter issues with your IBO S-150 controller, refer to the following troubleshooting guide:
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| Il controller non si accende. | Nessuna alimentazione; cavo di alimentazione allentato; presa difettosa. | Check power outlet; ensure power cable is securely plugged in; check circuit breaker. |
| Pump does not turn on when temperature is high. | Incorrect 'start temperature' setting; faulty pump connection; pump malfunction. | Verify 'start temperature' setting; check pump power cable connection; test pump independently if possible. |
| Pump does not turn off when temperature is low. | Incorrect 'stop temperature' setting; sensor malfunction. | Verify 'stop temperature' setting; check sensor connection and placement. |
| La lettura della temperatura non è accurata. | Sensor improperly placed; faulty sensor. | Ensure sensor has good thermal contact and is correctly positioned; replace sensor if necessary. |
| Anti-freeze function activates unexpectedly. | Ambient temperature near or below 5 °C; sensor reading error. | This is normal operation if ambient temperature is low. Check sensor reading for accuracy. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact a qualified technician or the product support.
