Dutch term

pendelgedrag

Dutch to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) solar boilers
Still on the subject of solar boilers.

De naverwarmer vertoont pendelgedrag en heeft een tapdrempel waardoor de naverwarmer aan- en afslaat.

Found a couple of relevant sites, and found anti-hunting time for antipendeltijd. I'm not sure how to phrase pendelgedrag here though. Thought of fluctuates, but am not sure if that works.

cyclic operation

Meaning that it switches on and runs for a while, then switches off and stays off for a while, and then repeats this cycle ad infinitum. This is the standard operating mode of a system controlled by a single set-point control (e.g a thermostat) with hysteresis.
