Configuració i instal·lació
The Danfoss RA/VL2960 thermostatic head is designed for straightforward installation on compatible RA/V valve bodies with a 34 mm neck inner diameter. No special tools are typically required beyond a flat-head screwdriver for the clamping ring connection.
Passos d'instal·lació:

- Remove Old Head (if applicable): If replacing an existing thermostatic head, loosen the clamping ring or connection mechanism that secures it to the valve body. Carefully remove the old head.
- Set New Head: Before mounting, set the new Danfoss RA/VL2960 thermostatic head to its highest setting (typically '5' or 'MAX') to ensure the valve pin is fully retracted. This facilitates easier installation.
- Posició i fixació: Place the new thermostatic head onto the valve body, aligning it correctly. The head is designed to fit securely over the valve's neck.
- Connexió segura: Apretar el clamping ring connection firmly using a flat-head screwdriver. Ensure the head is securely fastened and does not wobble. Do not overtighten.
- Verificar el funcionament: Once installed, turn the thermostatic head through its settings to confirm smooth operation and proper engagement with the valve pin.

Instruccions de funcionament
The Danfoss RA/VL2960 thermostatic head allows for manual control of room temperature by regulating the flow of hot water through the radiator. The head features numbered settings, typically from '*' (frost protection) to '5' (maximum heat).
Control de temperatura:
- Ajust de temperatura: Rotate the head to the desired setting. Higher numbers correspond to higher room temperatures.
- Frost Protection (*): Setting the head to the '*' symbol activates the frost protection function. This setting ensures the room temperature does not fall below approximately 6-8°C (43-46°F), preventing pipes from freezing.
- Limiting/Locking Settings: The head may have mechanisms to limit the maximum or minimum temperature settings, or to lock it at a specific setting. Refer to the markings on the head for specific instructions on how to engage these features, if present. This is useful for preventing accidental changes or maintaining a consistent temperature.
