hot
water
is
need,
a 3-way
diverting
valve
should be
included.
It
is
recommended
to
set
up
your
sanitary
hot
water
system
identically
to
one
of
the
configurations
shown
below
and
on
the
following
pages.
4.1. Sanitary Hot Water Applications
4.1.1.Configuration 1
Water mixture valve
Magnesium rod
T/P valve
City water
Water from heat pump
Water to heat pump
In this configuration, hot water circulating through the heat pump circuit floods the tank.
This submerses the coils, which run the shower water circuit, resulting in a heat exchange interaction.
A mixing valve ensures that temperatures do not exceed 60
℃
The primary advantages of this application include:
•
Sanitization is not necessary, since the sanitary hot water is heated by going through the coils.
•
Direct connection between heat pump and tank, ensuring effective water flow rates for it.
•
Energy savings from not requiring sanitization.
A disadvantage of this configuration is a decreased volume of sanitary hot water available when
compared with other configurations, due to the smaller diameter of the transfer coils.
