Daikin Altherma - Low Temperature Split
4P313774-1 – 2012.05
8 Configuration
Bivalent
Applies only to installations with an auxiliary boiler (alternating
operation, parallel connected). The purpose of this function is to
determine — based on the outdoor temperature — which heating
source can/will provide the space heating, either the Daikin indoor
unit or an auxiliary boiler.
The field setting "bivalent operation" apply only the indoor unit space
heating operation and the permission signal for the auxiliary boiler.
When the "bivalent operation" function is enabled, the indoor unit will
stop automatically in space heating operation when the outdoor
temperature drops below "bivalent ON temperature" and the
permission signal for the auxiliary boiler becomes active.
When the bivalent operation function is disabled, the space heating
by indoor unit is possible at all outdoor temperatures (see operation
ranges) and permission signal for auxiliary boiler is always
disactivated.
Q
[C-03] Bivalent ON temperature: defines the outdoor
temperature below which the permission signal for the auxiliary
boiler will be active (closed, KCR on EKRP1HB) and space
heating by indoor unit will be stopped.
Q
[C-04] Bivalent hysteresis: defines the temperature difference
between bivalent ON temperature and bivalent OFF
temperature.

EKRP1HB
)
Bottom plate heater
Applies only to installation with an outdoor unit ERHQ and the option
bottom plate heater kit is installed.
Q
[F-02] Bottom plate heater ON temperature: defines the outdoor
temperature below which the bottom plate heater will be
activated by indoor unit in order to prevent ice build-up in the
bottom plate of the outdoor unit at lower outdoor temperatures.
Q
[F-03] Bottom plate heater hysteresis: defines the temperature
difference between bottom plate heater ON temperature and the
bottom plate heater OFF temperature.

CAUTION
Make sure to observe all rules mentioned in application
guideline 5 when bivalent operation function is enabled.
Daikin shall not be held liable for any damage resulting
from failure to observe this rule.
INFORMATION
Q
The combination of setting [4-03]=0/2 with bivalent
operation at low outdoor temperature can result in
domestic hot water shortage.
Q
The bivalent operation function has no impact on the
domestic water heating mode. The domestic hot water
is still and only heated by the indoor unit.
Q
The permission signal for the auxiliary boiler is located
on the EKRP1HB (digital I/O PCB). When it is
activated, the contact X1, X2 is closed and open when
it is disactivated. See illustration below for the
schematic location of this contact.
