Product catalog summary
Overview
The LET4*** is a bi-directional wireless controller operating at 868 MHz, designed to enhance energy efficiency in heating and cooling systems. It functions as a single-room controller for signals from analogue and digital room thermostats and operating units, activating thermal actuators in underfloor heating systems.
Key Features
  • Bi-directional wireless communication for heating/cooling.
  • Operates at 868.3 MHz with versions available with or without LAN connection.
  • LED indicators for functions, communication, and operating modes.
  • Emergency function for signal loss and individual channel configuration.
  • Integrated pump logic and potential-free output contact.
  • Inputs for monitoring supply temperature and relative humidity.
Technical Specifications
  • Available in 4, 8, and 12 channel versions with 24 V or 230 V power supply.
  • Maximum of 16 thermal actuators for the 12-channel version.
  • Power consumption varies by channel count and power supply.
  • Ingress protection rated at IP 20.
Functional Description
  • Components include the LET4*** wireless controller, LRA4** wireless room operating unit, and LRT4** room thermostat.
  • Features short-circuit-proof outputs, standby mode, and separate relays for pumps and heating control.
  • Supports on/off control or pulse width modulation (PWM) for actuator control.
  • Equipped with self-diagnosis and fault indicator functions.
Energy-Saving and Cooling Modes
  • Energy-saving mode allows for individual temperature profiles with three stored time programs.
  • Cooling mode can be activated via external signals, with options for master or any wireless room operating unit activation.
Pump and Valve Control
  • Anti-jamming function activates weekly to prevent pump and valve jamming.
  • Emergency mode provides frost protection by activating thermal actuators in the absence of a signal.
Temperature and Humidity Control
  • Temperature control uses internal or external sensors, with options for on/off control or advanced algorithms.
  • Humidity control involves an optional I/O box for connecting humidifiers or dehumidifiers.
Installation and Configuration
  • Addressing allows for flexible assignment of wireless room operating units to channels.
  • Zones can be formed for grouped control, with up to three zones per wireless controller.
Accessories
  • External active aerial and repeater for network extension.
  • Transformer for power supply conversion.
System Configuration
The system can integrate up to three wireless controllers, with one designated as the master. Controllers communicate every 3 minutes, and the master must be defined before assigning to a room operating unit to avoid loss of settings.
Signals and Communication
Key signals transferred include pump and heating/cooling signals, while Eco and humidity alarms remain local. The pump signal can be set to local or central, affecting how the pump is activated.
Software Update
Updates are performed via an SD card, requiring power disconnection before removal. The boot loader initiates the new software automatically.
LAN Model
Features an integrated web application for local control via WLAN and remote control via the SAUTER app on iPhone.
Operating Modes
Modes include Off, Reduced, Normal, Time Programmes (Pro1, Pro2, Pro3), Cooling, Heating, and Auto Cooling, each with specific conditions for activation.
Controls and Indicators
The system includes various buttons and LEDs for system configuration, master setting, zone management, and channel addressing. LEDs indicate power, communication status, and operational modes.
Installation Notes
The receiver should be installed near the underfloor heating distributor in a clean, ventilated area. CE conformity is ensured as per specified standards.
Accessories
Includes an external active aerial for improved reception and a repeater to extend transmission range. The repeater requires addressing and can only be used once per network.

LET4***: Bi - directional wireless controller (868 MHz)-1

45.012/1 LET4***: Bi-directional wireless controller (868 MHz) How energy efficiency is improved Protected, intelligent solution for optimal energy use. Areas of use As a bi-directional receiving station for the signals from the analogue LRT410 room thermostats and the digital LRA420 and LRA450 room operating units, the LET4*** is used as a single-room controller for every channel and for activating thermal actuators in underfloor heating control systems. The individual controllers communicate using a bi-directional signal. The pulses of the radio thermostats can be individually assigned to the corresponding channels. Features  Intelligent bi-directional wireless controllers for heating/cooling  Reception frequency: 868.3 MHz  Versions with or without LAN connection  LEDs for the functions, communication and operating modes  One LED per channel for visualisation and confirmation of the channel assignment  Emergency function when there is no signal reception  Individual configuration for every channel accessible from the outside  Integrated pump logic and potential-free output contact  With heating/cooling input and potential-free and configurable output  Input for monitoring the supply temperature  Input for monitoring the relative humidity Technical description  Black housing (RAL9005) with transparent cover  Versions with 4, 8 and 12 channels  Including a transformer for the 24 V version  Monitoring of the inputs and state of the controller with LEDs  24 V version with triac outputs for thermal actuators  230 V version with relay outputs for thermal actuators  Automatic connection terminal, depending on the channel, 1 or 2 actuators/channel  Maximum number of thermal actuators with 12-channel version: 16  SD card for software update accessible from the outside Type Power supply Power consumption 2) 230 V, 4 channels 230 V, 8 channels 230 V, 12 channels 24 V, 4 channels 1) 24 V, 8 channels 1) 24 V, 12 channels 1) Power consumption in stand-by mode Max. power consumption, idle Max. power consumption, idle Number of actuators 3) Max. perm. load Fuse rating 230 V Fuse rating 24 V Radio frequency max. 12.5 W max. 24.5 W max. 36.5 W max. 14.6 W max. 26.6 W max. 38.6 W 2.6 W 2.5 mA at 230 V 250 mA at 24 V 1 or 2 per channel 0.7 A / 24 V / channel 1 A / 230 V / channel 4 A slow 2 A slow 868.3 MHz Pump connection Heating/cooling output Input for monitoring temperature limit 24 V variants 230 V variants Heating/cooling input ECO input 230 V relay output 24 V Triac output Perm. ambient temperature Perm. ambient humidity Ingress protection Protection class 230 V~ 24 V~ Wiring diagram 230 V 24…230 V (N + L) 230 V contacts detected contacts detected 230 V 0.5(0.3) A~ 24 V 1 A~ 0…55 °C

Anti-jamming function for pump and valves To prevent the pump and the valves from jamming, the anti-jamming function is started once a week. The function is started if one of the outputs has not been addressed for a week. The anti-blocking function switches on the pump for 3 minutes. The actuators are monitored on each channel and are switched on for 20 minutes. The pump and the actuators switch on automatically without advance warning. Emergency mode Emergency mode is intended as a frost-protection facility; for this reason it is active only in heating mode. If no radio signal has been transmitted...
