Nibe HA-WH5 F, Installer Manual, Page: 9 / 24

General
Pipe installation must be carried out in accordance with
current norms and directives.
Internal support bushes should be
d when a plastic
pipe or annealed copper pipe is used. The water heater
must be
d with the requisite valves, such as a safety
valve, valve, non-return valve, and vacuum valve.
An w pipe must be routed from the safety valve
to a suitable drain. The size of the w pipe must be
the same as on the safety valve. Route the w pipe
from the safety valve enclosed along its entire length and
ensure that it is frost proof. The outlet of the
pipe should be visible and clearly away from any electrical
components.
w water from the safety valves goes via non-
pressurised collecting pipes to a drain so that hot water
splashes cannot cause injury. These non-pressurised col-
lecting pipes shall not be used for anything else. A dis-
charge pipe from the tundish connected to the expansion
relief valve (safety valve) shall also be connected to a drain
in the same way.
Please note that the connection of the T&P-valve should
not be used for any other purpose.
Valves may not be positioned between the expansion
valve and the vessel.
Discharge pipes from tundishes shall have av vertical
section of pipe at least 300 mm long, before any elbows
or bends in the pipework (see following picture).
600 mm maximum

NOTE
The expansion vessel accomodates expansion
that results from heating the water inside the
unit. The expansion vessel must be connected
between the expansion valve and the cylinder.
The location of the expansion vessel should allow
access to recharge the pressure as and when
necessary.

elbows or bends) Minimum size of dis-

Emptying the system by
1. Open external r valve and external drain valve.
2. Flush the system for some minute. Watch out for water splashes from the safety valve.
3.
Close the valves and check the stainer.
