The maintenance of Uponor Smatrix Base/Base PRO
includes the following:
• Manual preventive maintenance
• Automatic preventive maintenance
• Corrective maintenance
• Controller LEDs
15.1 Manual preventive maintenance
Uponor Smatrix Base requires no preventive
maintenance except cleaning:
1. Use a dry soft cloth to clean the components.
Do not use any detergents to clean the
Uponor Smatrix Base components.
15.2 Automatic preventive maintenance
Uponor Smatrix Base/Base PRO is equipped with an
automatic exercise function. This function consists of
a test run designed to prevent the pump and actuators
from seizing up due to inactivity.
This exercise is run every 6 days ±24 hours at random:
• The pump exercise operates only if the pump has
not been activated since the last exercise. The pump
is activated for 3 minutes during the exercise.
• The actuator exercise operates only if the actuators
have not been activated since the last exercise. The
exercise consists of opening and completely closing
the actuators periodically.
If the system includes an Uponor Smatrix Base PRO
interface, the exercise function can be used at any time.
15.3 Corrective maintenance
If a thermostat is malfunctioning or not detected, the
controller executes the fallback mode to maintain the
temperature in the room (heating mode only) until the
problem is resolved.
If the controller does not work as expected, for example
due to a hang-up, it can be reset to solve the problem:
1. Disconnect and reconnect the controller to AC
power.
