2 Purpose of the Heat
Pump
2.1 Application
The air-to-water heat pump is to be used exclusively for the heat-
ing of heating water. It can be used in newly built or previously
existing heating systems.
The heat pump is suitable for mono energy and bivalent opera-
tion down to an external temperature of -20 °C.
Proper defrosting of the evaporator is guaranteed by maintaining
a heating water return flow temperature of more than 18 °C dur-
ing continuous operation.
The heat pump is not designed for the increased heat consump-
tion required when a building is being dried out. The additional
heat consumption should be met using special devices provided
by the customer. If a building is to be dried out in autumn or win-
ter, we recommend installing an additional heating element
(available as an accessory).
NOTE
The device is not suitable for operation with a frequency converter.
2.2 Operating Principle
Outside air is drawn in by the ventilator and fed via the evapora-
tor (heat exchanger). The evaporator cools the air, i.e. it extracts
heat from it. This extracted heat is then transferred to the working
medium (refrigerant) in the evaporator.
The heat is “pumped” to a higher temperature level by increasing
its pressure with the aid of an electrically driven compressor. It is
then transferred to the heating water using the liquifier (heat ex-
changer).
Electrical energy is used to raise the temperature of the heat in
the environment to a higher level. Because the energy extracted
from the air is transferred to the heating water, this type of device
is called an air-to-water heat pump.
The air-to-water heat pump consists of the main components
evaporator, ventilator and expansion valve, as well as the com-
pressor, the liquefier and the electrical control system.
At low ambient temperatures, humidity accumulates on the evap-
orator in the form of frost reducing the transfer of heat. Uneven
accumulation during this process does not indicate a fault. The
evaporator is defrosted automatically by the heat pump as re-
quired. Steam may be emitted from the air outlet depending on
the atmospheric conditions.
2.3 Functional description for
integrated thermal energy
metering
The compressor manufacturer's performance specifications for
different pressure levels are stored in the heat pump software.
Two additional pressure sensors for determining the current
pressure level are installed in the refrigerating circuit, one before
and one after the compressor. The current heat output can be
calculated from the compressor data stored in the software and
the current pressure level. The integral for the heat output over
the runtime gives the quantity of thermal energy supplied by the
heat pump, which is displayed separately for heating, domestic
hot water preparation and swimming pool water preparation on
the heat pump manager´s display.
3 Scope of Delivery
3.1 Basic Device
The heat pump contains the components listed below.
The refrigerant circuit is hermetically sealed. It contains the
Kyoto protocol approved refrigerant R410A with a GWP value of
2088. It is CFC-free, does not deplete ozone and is non-flamma-
ble.
