Potterton EP2 Twin Channel Programmer

Product Information

This programmer meets central heating demands via 24 hour 5/2 day or 7 day time settings allowing the user to select the schedule that suits their weekly or daily requirements.

One note however, the EP2 face plate has a tiny screw on the lower edge that is screwed in from the underside to really lock the faceplate in position. Be aware that the display is difficult to read from below, especially in poor or artificial light, avoid having to look up at the programmer. You can select 2 or 3 on/off cycles per day, weekday/ weekend, heating and or hot water on, or individual days can all be selected.

I have no special electrical knowledge but based on my background reading I just switched the power off at the mains, swooped the controller, and switched the power back on. A couple of the holes where the tommy-bar fits had burrs but these were easily removed using a round file.

My only minor criticism with the design is the software which leaves the LED screen on full, glaring out it's bright blue display 24/7 for no reason.

The new one has the same contacts into the existing terminals on the backplate - there is also a new backplate provided if you need one, but my old one looked fine so I simply pulled out the battery protection tab, snapped the new programmer back onto the old backplate, switched it on and started programming it according to the instructions.

Would have thought that after use they would go out until a button was pressed to turn them on when needed. If you choose a complex set-up, you still don't necessarily have to set the timings for each day laboriously, as you can copy settings from one day to the next, then tweak them if required. In the initial set up of the programmer, the installer can select a programmer option, based on the wiring and the type of system, pumped or gravity.

The new EP2 Twin Channel Programmer can be used with backplates from the existing EP range making it quick and easy to fit without requiring any additional wiring. I have been using a Potterton EP6000 programmer for some 21 years for my CH system and replaced the 48volt relays when they slowly burnt out over the years, but now the membrane hardly works when pressing the buttons so purchased a new Potterton EP2.

However, I tried to switch on the CH recently after not being used for several months and it fails to trigger the boiler to put the CH on. Probably a simple press of the button to get days but nothing as obvious in the brief instructions compared with the EP6000 leaflet which went through the whole routine step by step.
