Very Good Item
It was easy to place the order which was sent very quickly and the controller was installed the next day and the system is working correctly again. Very pleased with the outcome.

Apricus Solar Heater controller
Original item with identical looking circuit had no sensor to Inlet but this arrangement would not function. When I connected inlet sensor the control unit worked perfectly. Original one had been damaged by a power failure after almost 10 years faultless operation. When I connected a 240 V supply from an inverter, the inverter began howling (this had worked well on previous occasions when power failed) Upon opening the cover there was an obvious burnt spot at a chip near the input for 240 V mains. The 'Salmson' pump worked well from the inverter and restored mains so I switched pump on manually during the day. System works well again but now needs a higher roof temperature before starting pump. Perhaps the original had been especially altered to not require inlet NTC.
