SALUS HTRP230 vs HTRS230 – Model Overview and Key Differences

The SALUS HTRP230 and HTRS230 are wired electronic room thermostats designed for underfloor heating systems. Though they look similar, these models are distinct in features and application scenarios. Understanding their functionalities, wiring compatibility, and role in system topology is crucial for proper installation and use.

Wiring Setup and Use Cases

  • HTRP230(50) is intended for 4-wire installations, allowing it to function as a MASTER and manage SLAVE thermostats like HTRS230(30).
  • HTRS230(30) used in a 3-wire setup cannot receive the NSB signal and thus operates independently (without SLAVE functionality)​.
  • In a 4-wire setup, HTRS230V(30) can switch between comfort and eco temperatures based on NSB signal from a MASTER unit such as HTRP230​.



Example Application Scenario

System with Master/Slave Control:

  • HTRP230 as MASTER (4-wire setup),
  • HTRS230 as SLAVE (AUTO mode activated),
  • Connected via KL08NSB wiring center,
  • Master thermostat dictates schedule, slaves only adjust output based on NSB signal.



Summary

  • HTRP230 is suitable for those needing weekly programming and system management.
  • HTRS230 fits simple or subordinate roles within the heating system.
  • The “WB” suffix does not change core functionality but might indicate OEM or mounting variant.
  • Ensure proper wiring setup (3-wire vs. 4-wire) to unlock full functionality.

For advanced installations or mixed systems, refer to the specific KL06/KL08NSB wiring diagrams and consult SALUS support if uncertain
