4.1.2.Configuration 2
In this configuration, hot water from the heat pump circuit runs through the coils in the tank.
Sanitary water fills the tank and is heated by the coils before exiting the tank towards the shower head.
This configuration also does not require sanitization.
The primary advantage to this configuration is that it can supply a greater volume of sanitary hot water.
Disadvantages include:
•
The coil may create enough resistance to water flow that a secondary heat pump could be needed,
in order to ensure that a proper flow rate, efficiency, and proper operation are maintained.
•
The capacity of the coils will need to be greater than or equal to the maximum output of the unit.
(
Max. heat pump output occurs at 7˚C Air/45˚C Water)
This configuration is optimal for a heat pump that does not exceed 14kW.
