Piping installation
5.1
Preparing water piping
NOTICE
In case of plastic pipes, make sure they are fully oxygen
diffusion tight according to DIN 4726. The diffusion of
oxygen into the piping can lead to excessive corrosion.
5.1.1
To check the water volume and flow rate
Minimum water volume
Check that the total water volume in the installation is minimum 20
litres, the internal water volume of the outdoor unit NOT included.
NOTICE
When circulation in each space heating/cooling loop is
controlled by remotely controlled valves, it is important that
the minimum water volume is guaranteed, even if all of the
valves are closed.
Minimum flow rate
Check that the minimum flow rate in the installation is guaranteed in
all conditions on each zone separately. This minimum flow rate is
required during defrost/backup heater operation. For this purpose,
use the overpressure bypass valve delivered with the unit.
Minimum required flow rate
20 l/min
NOTICE
To guarantee proper operation it is recommended to have
a minimum flow of 28 l/min during DHW.
NOTICE
If glycol was added to the water circuit, and the
temperature of the water circuit is low, the flow rate will
NOT be displayed on the user interface. In this case, the
minimum flow rate can be checked by way of the pump
test (check that the user interface does NOT display error
7H).
NOTICE
When circulation in each or certain space heating loops is
controlled by remotely controlled valves, it is important that
the minimum flow rate is guaranteed, even if all valves are
closed. In case the minimum flow rate cannot be reached,
a flow error 7H will be generated (no heating or operation).
See the installer reference guide for more information.
See the recommended procedure as described in
25].
5.2
Connecting water piping
5.2.1
To connect the water piping
NOTICE
Do NOT use excessive force when connecting the field
piping and make sure the piping is aligned properly.
Deformation of the piping can cause malfunctioning of the
unit.
NOTICE
Do NOT use excessive force when connecting the piping.
Deformation of the piping can cause malfunctioning of the
unit.
1
Connect the O-rings and shut-off valves to the outdoor unit
water connection pipes of the indoor unit.
2
Connect the outdoor unit field piping to the shut-off valves.
3
Connect the O-rings and shut-off valves to the space heating/
cooling water pipes of both zones of the indoor unit.
4
Connect the space heating/cooling field piping of both zones to
the shut-off valves.
5
Connect the domestic hot water in and out pipes to the indoor
unit.
