Individual room control in old buildings with standard panel radiators

Good evening,

in an old building apartment, I would like to control the radiators in a room individually via an electronic control. I want to mount the thermostat of type 1098 U-101 from Busch Jaeger once per room at a central position. The controller should then control the room via an electric valve that replaces the thermostat valve on the radiator.

Why not conventional thermostat valves? The electric control is more comfortable and – I hope – more economical through precise temporal control of the heating demand.

For this, I have the following questions:

1. Does the idea I have outlined work?
2. This is the essential point: what kind of valve do I use on the radiators? Is there anything to consider besides the two variants NC and NO?
3. I am also unclear whether such a control system makes sense for panel radiators. I usually read about this in connection with underfloor heating.

I do not want to use a radio-based control. The system should preferably run on 230 V.

If anyone has experience with such a control system: I am grateful for any hints and feedback. I am especially interested in information about possible valve heads.

Best regards,
Frank

Good evening,

does anyone have an idea how to implement the control, or whether it works as sketched?

Best regards

Hello Erik,

thank you very much for your answer.

I do not want to use a wireless solution. On the one hand, I do not want battery-powered devices, on the other hand, I want a direct connection between the thermostat and the control valve. Since the electrical installation will be completely renewed anyway, laying the necessary cables is not a problem.

The controller was only meant as a principle example. Now I know that it works. I will choose the controller to match the switch system.

Thanks again for your support.

Best regards Frank
