Commissioning
INFORMATION
The software is equipped with an "installer-on-site" mode
([9.G]: Disable protections), that disables automatic
operation by the unit. At first installation, setting Disable
protections is by default set to Yes, meaning automatic
operation is disabled. All protective functions are then
disabled. If the user interface home pages are off, the unit
will NOT operate automatically. To enable automatic
operation and the protective functions, set Disable
protections to No.
36 hours after the first power-on, the unit will automatically
set Disable protections to No, ending "installer-on-site"
mode and enabling the protective functions. If – after first
installation – the installer returns to the site, the installer
has to set Disable protections to Yes manually.
9.1
Overview: Commissioning
This chapter describes what you have to do and know to
commission the system after it is configured.
Typical workflow
Commissioning typically consists of the following stages:
1
Checking the "Checklist before commissioning".
2
Performing an air purge.
3
Performing a test run for the system.
4
If necessary, performing a test run for one or more actuators.
5
If necessary, performing an underfloor heating screed dryout.
9.2
Precautions when commissioning
INFORMATION
During the first running period of the unit, the required
power may be higher than stated on the nameplate of the
unit. This phenomenon is caused by the compressor, that
needs a continuous run time of 50 hours before reaching
smooth operation and stable power consumption.
NOTICE
NEVER operate the unit without thermistors and/or
pressure sensors/switches. Burning of the compressor
might result.
NOTICE
Do NOT operate the unit until the refrigerant piping is
complete (when operated this way, the compressor will
break).
9.3
Checklist before commissioning
After the installation of the unit, first check the following items. Once
all below checks are fulfilled, the unit MUST be closed, ONLY then
can the unit be powered up.
