Schematic diagram of the system elements
Photocell monitoring
Direct photocell monitoring of the combustion chamber allows the control to be able to react
significantly faster because it does not have to wait for a temperature change at a measure-
ment point.
Safety thermostat
This system switches off the heating system if the boiler temperature should increase to 95 C.
Photocell
In conjunction with the sensor for flue gas temperature, the photocell monitors the fill level and
the ignition procedure in the combustion chamber.
3 Operating fundamentals
Please read through this instruction manual completely before operating the system. If you are
unsure about anything, please contact KWB customer service or your personal KWB partner!
Operate the main switch (1) during maintenance or repair work or when the system is to re-
main switched off for a longer period of time. In the scope of our instructions, we indicate the
appropriate point in time for this.
Shortly after switching on your system, the control unit will display the so-called "Header
screen". The control is now at your disposal.
4 Press the "Set" button and switch to the main menu.
3.2.1 Introduction
The header mask will appear shortly after you switch on the system using the main switch.
Press the "Set" button to get to the main menu.
Menu structure
You can move from the Main menu to submenus and settings of your choice using the dial and
the two buttons "Set" and "Esc". From here, you can read off the information or change values.
• The header shows where you are located in the menu tree.
• The text of the footer provides you with information about whether the display area con-
tains selection menus ("Select option") or settings ("Change with set").
• alarm messages are displayed in the lower right corner.

service.
4 Follow the instructions of KWB customer service exactly – any deviation can have unfore-
seeable consequences and even lead to the destruction of your system!
Standby mode
The heating circuit is switched off in this mode. However the frost protection function is active.
The boiler must be switched on for this (section "System On / Off").
Night mode
The heating circuit is always maintained at the set night lower temperature.
Automatic mode
The heating circuit is operated according to the set time program, i.e. within the set heating
times at day temperature - except at night lower temperature where it is held or shut off.
Day mode
The heating circuit is always maintained at the set day temperature.
The spring arms of the stirrer must NOT be retracted during the filling of the
storage room.

2 Operational state [➙ 30]
Actual temperature:
Displays the measured value of the heating circuit room sensor.
Comment: Is only displayed when an actual room sensor is connected!
Please note: A correction of the room temperature by ±5 °C on the analogue remote con-
trol unit changes the value displayed here in the opposite direction!
Example: If you set the control on the analogue remote control unit to +5 °C, the value in
Actual temperature will fall from 18 °C to 13 °C. As a consequence the heating sys-
tem will heat more powerfully.
Day temp.:
Input of target room temperature during the day
Night temp.:
Input target room temperature during night lowering (specified in the heating program [►
24])
Enter the time up until the selected heating circuit is to be supplied with heat. After this, the
system runs normally again (normally the night lowering usually follows).
Deactivate the function by entering "00:00".
Note: The KWB Comfort 3 will also display the heating circuits "Heating circuit 0" to "Heating
circuit 2" even if these are not installed. In this case although you can select the heating cir-
cuits, the "Set" button will not take you further down. If more than 3 heating circuits are instal-
led, the display expands automatically.
Transition
During the day, this mode corresponds to the heating programs 1 or 2, however, this time the
system switches off outside of the heating times, instead of switching to the night lowering.
Frost protection
The selected heating circuit is held above the frost protection room temperature (can only be
modified by specialist personnel).
The heating circuit switches off if the measured outside temperature exceeds the specified val-
ues – even if the "outdoor temperature-dependent shutdown" was NOT activated by the spe-
cialist.
Off
The heating circuit is switched off and makes no requests for heat.
Manual mode
The selected heating circuit pump is activated manually: No regulation, no switch off!
The mixer must be adjusted manually if necessary.
Specify when the system is to heat to the target room temperature for each heating circuit.
You can specify the active times for every individual day or for all days.
If you would not like to use a time period, set the values for On and Off to the same time: The
KWB Comfort 3 will then detect this time period as an empty entry.
Start
The "Frost protection" mode is activated on this day.
End
The set heating program is reactivated on this day. During the holiday time, the room tempera-
ture is held at approximately 8 °C (factory setting).
6.6 Boiler
A "boiler" ("DHWC") is the storage container for hot water.
Time program
If the minimum temperature is fallen below during the stored charging times, the hot water
storage tank contents is heated up to the maximum temperature.
Tip: This program is primarily suited for DHWCs that are additionally heated via solar power.
Temperature
Independently of the charging time, the DHWC is always heated up to the maximum tempera-
ture if the minimum temperature was undershot.
Off
The boiler charge function is switched off.
Setting for longer periods of inactivity.
Manual mode
The temperature of the hot water is always kept at the maximum temperature (while it is
switched off in the temperature program after reaching the maximum temperature and it will
only be charged again undershooting the minimum temperature of the hot water)!
The DHWC charge pump also runs automatically in manual mode (boiler mode).
Menus used: (1) Main menu >> Boiler >> Boiler No. >> Charging times [► 27]
(2) Main menu >> Boiler >> Boiler No. >> Boiler temperature [► 27]
Determine when each DHWC is to be heated up. You can specify the charging times for each
individual day or for all days together.
Empty entry If you would not like to use a time period, set the values for On and Off to the same time: The
KWB Comfort 3 will then detect this time period as an empty entry.
Maximum
The contents are heated up up to this temperature.
Actual temperature
Measured domestic hot water temperature.
Minimum
The domestic hot water temperature may drop to this temperature, it is then heated up.
Start:
The DHWC is switched off on this day.
End:
The DHWC is switched on on this day and the set boiler program is activated.
This will immediately heat up the contents of the DHWC – independently from the current boil-
er program.
Fast charging:
If set to On, the system starts charging the DHWC. After successful heating up, up to the max-
imum temperature, the status of the system automatically switches off again Off. The heat-
ing of the DHWC then occurs depending on the set boiler program.
6.7 Buffer
A "buffer" ("buffer tank") is an intermediate storage tank for heat which the boiler generates
during short operating times in the optimal power range.
Time program
During the saved charging times (1), the buffer contents are heated up to the maximum tem-
perature (2) if the minimum temperature (2) was undershot.
Tip: This program is primarily suited for buffers that in addition are heated via solar power.
The factory setting is set to 00:00–23:59 Hours.
Temperature
The charging is exclusively controlled by temperature:
• Buffer is heated up if
∙ the buffer temperature is lower than the highest requested temperature from the heat-
ing circuits or
∙ if the minimum temperature on the upper sensor ("actual temperature 1") was under-
shot.
• The heating up occurs until the set maximum is reached on the lower sensor ("Actual tem-
perature 2").
• The minimum temperature is always maintained even if there is no heat request from the
consumers.
Off
The automatic buffer charge function is switched off. However, if a consumer places a request,
the boiler heats up the buffer until the upper sensor lies at the target temperature of the con-
sumer. However, the buffer is not charged through, i.e. the lower target temperature remains
disregarded.
Manual mode
The buffer tank is always kept at the maximum temperature.
Attention: Switch-off is NOT executed automatically!
The set minimum (2) is always maintained even if there is NO heat request from the consum-
ers.
Menus used (1) Main menu >> Buffer >> Buffer No. >> Charging times [► 29]
(2) Main menu >> Buffer >> Buffer No. >> Buffer temperature [► 30]
Determine when each buffer tank is to be heated up. You can specify the charging times for
each individual day or for all days together.
Empty entry If you would not like to use one of the charging times, please set the value for On and Off to
the same point in time: The KWB Comfort 3 will then detect these time periods as an empty
entry.
Actual temperature 1
Water temperature measured on theupper sensor.
Actual temperature 2
Water temperature measured on thelower sensor.
Maximum
The contents are heated up up to this temperature (measured at the lower sensor).
Minimum
The water temperature may drop down to this temperature (measured at the upper sensor); it
is then heated up – unless a consumer requests a higher temperature than the minimum tem-
perature.

7 Maintenance
WARNING Perform work according to the instructions for operation only! Improper work
can put you in life-threatening situations:
m Danger of crushing and entanglement through unexpected starting of mech-
anisms
m Fire, explosion and electric shock risk from open cladding, combustion
chamber door and service cover
m Asphyxiation risk due to carbonisation gases from smoldering fuel when the
combustion chamber door or service cover is open!
4 Shut the system down (Menu "System ON/OFF").
4 Switch the system off (main switch to "0").
4 Pull the plug and secure the system against being switched on again.
4 Allow the system to cool down. Only open the cladding, combustion cham-
ber door and service cover when the system is cold and de-energised!
• For heating systems with a power ≤ 50 kW, regular checks are not required if it can be
proven that an annual maintenance is performed by authorised specialists (factory custom-
er service or an authorised service partner).
• For pellet heating systems with a power ≤ 150 kW, regular checks are not required if it
can be proven that an annual maintenance is performed by authorised specialists (factory
customer service or an authorised service partner).
• Without maintenance contract: For automatic wood-fired systems, a maintenance must be
performed every 3 years by authorised specialists (factory customer service or an author-
ised service partner).
Systems For systems up to maximum 150 kW, the system operator must contract for a maintenance of
≤ 150 kW the heating system every three years at the latest and this must be performed by the KWB
factory customer service or qualified specialists who have been trained and certified for this by
KWB.
We recommend having an annual maintenance performed by qualified specialists in the scope
of a maintenance contract: This will ensure trouble-free operation, long service life and will re-
duce the environmental impact even further!
Systems Systems between 150 and 300 kW must – without exception – be maintained by professional
≤ 300 kW specialists every 2 years.
