It may be necessary to add a buffer water tank to the circuit in order to achieve the required volume. The tank must itself be
internally baffled in order to ensure proper mixing of the liquid (water or brine). Refer to the examples below.
5.9 - Maximum water loop volume (evaporator and
condenser side)
Units with hydronic module incorporate an expansion tank
sized for the maximum water loop volume.
The table below gives the maximum water loop volume (in
litres) for pure water or ethylene glycol with various con-
centrations.

5.10 - Expansion tank
The expansion tank is supplied with a pressure of 1 bar relative
(±20%). The maximum operating pressure for the tank is 3 bar.
5.11 - Protection against cavitation (option 116)
To ensure the durability of the pumps in the integrated hydronic
modules, the control algorithm of the BW10 units incorporates
anti-cavitation protection.
It is therefore necessary to ensure a minimum pump entering
pressure of 60 kPa (0.6 bar) during operation and at shut-down.
A pressure below 60 kPa will prohibit unit start-up or cause an
alarm with the unit shutting down.
In order to obtain sufficient pressure, it is recommended:
•
to pressurise the hydronic circuit between 100 kPa and
300 kPa (1 and 3 bar) maximum on the suction side of the
pump,
•
to clean the hydronic circuit before charging water,
•
to regularly clean the screen filter.
