Use

● The SSA911.01TH wireless radiator valve actuator is designed to work on radiator

valves of different manufacturers in HVAC applications using M30x1.5 thread. It operates

the valve to control the water flow and controls the room temperature.

● The valve actuator works only in combination with Siemens Smart Thermostat

RDS110.R and optionally with wireless repeater RCR114.1.

● One RDS110.R can be paired with up to 6 radiator valve actuators in parallel. Up to 3

wireless repeaters RCR114.1 can be used to extend the range of the network.

Functions

Function Description

Communication The communication protocol used is THREAD.

THREAD is a low-power wireless mesh networking protocol and enables device-to-device

and device-to-cloud communication. THREAD is based on IEEE 802.15.4 radio standard.

Parallel operation Up to 6 actuators can be paired and operated with 1 RDS110.R or RCR114.1

Pairing The pairing process must be started on the Smart Thermostat and via HMI on the

SSA911.01TH

Calibration At first start-up, the SSA911.01TH automatically detects the end positions of the radiator

valve and calculates the available stroke. The actuator uses this information for positioning

between 0 and 100 %

Displaying status

information

Actuator status information is indicated on the display

● Setpoint temperature

● Connection to Smart Thermostat

● Radio signal strength

● Battery status (only active when the battery is low)

● Error codes

Connection test When this function is activated, the actuator sends a signal to the connected Smart

Thermostat. Information about the actuator will be shown on the display of the Smart

Thermostat.

Reset and start

new pairing

The current connection to RDS110.R or RCR114.1 is deleted. A new pairing process to

connect to another Smart Thermostat device starts automatically.

Adaptation to

valve

This function starts a new calibration of the SSA911.01TH to the attached valve.

Factory reset Reset the actuator to factory settings. Any existing connection to RDS110.R or RCR114.1 is

deleted and the stem is retracted.

Firmware version Shows the running version of the firmware.

Back up mode In case of a loss of communication, the internal PI-controller controls the temperature

according to the last setpoint received from the Smart Thermostat using the internal

temperature sensor.

Low batteries When the battery capacity drops to 20 %, the actuator displays the battery symbol as a pre-

warning.

A command is sent to the Smart Thermostat and a low battery indication is shown on the

RDS110.R.

Once the batteries are empty, the actuator sends a signal to the Smart Thermostat controller

and shuts down operation with a minimum valve position of 15 %.

Error codes In case of an actuator malfunction or communication error with the Smart Thermostat, an

error code is shown on the display of the SSA911.01TH. See Error codes [➙ 9]

Error codes

In case of an actuator malfunction or communication error with the Smart Thermostat, an

error code is shown on the display of the SSA911.01TH.

Error codes cannot be acknowledged on the SSA911.01TH. The error code is shown on the

display for as long as the error is active and will disappear once normal status has been

reached.

Error notifications are also sent to the Smart Thermostat and shown on the Smart

Thermostat display. E53 is at first only shown on SSA911.01TH and not immediately shown

on the Smart Thermostat. It will take some time to appear on the Smart Thermostat.

Code Error Cause Measures

Automatic

adaptation failed

● The actuator did not correctly adapt to the valve

or could not detect the end positions of the valve

● The actuator is not connected to a radiator valve

● Check the valve type and stroke

compatibility with the SSA911.01TH and

repeat the adaptation

● Check the mechanical valve connection,

adjust, and repeat the adaption

● Ensure that the valve is working correctly

and that the valve stem is not stuck and

repeat the adaptation

Mechanical valve

actuator error

● The movement of the actuator was too short to

detect the end positions of the valve

● Motor movement failure

● The actuator is not connected to a radiator valve

● The stroke and/or end positions of the valve are

not compatible with the SSA911.01TH

No controller found

– pairing failed

● No RDS110.R or RCR114.1 is available to

connect

● The Smart Thermostat is out of range

● RF chip failure

● Check and adjust the settings on Smart

Thermostat and re-start the pairing

process

● Decrease the distance between the

SSA911.01TH and the Smart Thermostat

and re-start the pairing process

Connection to

Smart Thermostat

lost

● The current connection to the Smart Thermostat

is not available anymore (RF chip failure)

● The paired RDS110.R or RCR114.1 is not

available anymore (e.g. loss of power)

● The Smart Thermostat is out of range

● Check the power supply and availability

of the Smart Thermostat

● Decrease the distance between the

SSA911.01TH and the Smart Thermostat

No new pairing process is required

to resolve E53. The SSA911.01TH

will automatically re-connect to the

Smart Thermostat once the

network is available again.

aintenance

The SSA911.01TH is maintenance free.

The actuator and the Smart Thermostat will indicate when replacing the batteries is required

approximately 2 months before the batteries are completely empty and the actuator switches

off.

Replacing the batteries

To replace the batteries, the SSA911.01TH should remain mounted on the radiator valve

and the Smart Thermostat should remain on power and switched on. Replacing the batteries

does not require any tools. For optimal performance, the use of high performance alkaline

batteries is recommended.

1. Remove the batteries

– Open the white battery cover [1]

– Remove the metallic slider [2]

– Take the batteries out [3]

2. Insert new batteries - 2 x LR6 (Alkaline AA) [4]

3. Re-insert the metallic slider [5] and put the white battery cover back on [6]

a The actuator will automatically start a new calibration and after successful calibration will

automatically re-establish the connection to the Smart Thermostat

Unsuccessful pairing or calibration is indicated by an error code on the display (see Error

codes [➙ 9]).

Disposal

The device is considered an electronic device for disposal in accordance

with the European Guidelines and may not be disposed of as domestic

garbage.

● Dispose of the device through channels provided for this purpose.

● Comply with all local and currently applicable laws and regulations.

● Dispose of empty batteries in designated collection points.
