Installation with user-supplied system separator tank
1
Pump "PU"
3
"BT" system separator vessel
2
"PIS" pressure transducer
4
"ST" dirt trap
During installation, observe the following points:
•
Ambient temperatures up to 35 °C
•
Pipe length (see table)
•
"WC" make-up connection at must be least 100 mm above the "PU" pump
intake connection.
•
Minimum diameter of the intake line and the pressure line (see table).
•
Adherence to EN 1717
•
Recommended nominal volume of the system separator tank o
f ≤ 200 l
•
Overflow with sufficient dimensions to match the maximum possible water
supply is installed.
•
A shut-off valve is installed in the supply to the system separator tank.

Note!
For installation at the same level, open the Customer menu to set the
"P

"MAG" diaphragm expansion vessel, otherwise, you must correct with
"hst", see chapter 7.2 "Determining the P
for the controller" on page 9 .

Connection to the facility system
Note!
Starting up of the pump causes vibration in the device. This transfers
loud noises into the system pipes.
–
Connect the pipes to the device using flexible connections.
Connection to the system circuit with a system separator tank for the make-up
with mains water.

Comply with the following requisites for the installation and connection of an
open system separator tank.
•
Make-up temperatures up to 70° C
•
Pipeline lengths, see chapter 6.3.1 "Floor mounting" on page 6 .
•
Outlet from the system separator tank at least 100 mm above the intake
connection of the "PU" pump.
–
"WC" intake line to "PU" pump with constant incline to the system
separator tank.
Note!
At make-up temperatures > 70 °C and the use in system circuits
without system separator tanks, you must plan according to the local
conditions, see chapter 12.1 "Reflex Customer Service" on page 16 .

In system circuits with a diaphragm expansion vessel, the "PIS" pressure
transducer in the device monitors the make-up with mains water. When the
required filling pressure for water make-up drops below the minimum value, the
pressure transducer sends a signal to the device controller. The controller
activates the pump. Mains water from the system separator tank is added to the
system circuit.
Proceed as follows:
1.
In the Customer menu, set the device to "Magcontrol", see chapter 9.2.1
"Customer menu" on page 13 .
2.
Connect the pressure line near the connection to the diaphragm expansion
vessel.
–
This ensures that the "PIS" pressure transducer detects the filling
pressure required for the make-up with mains water.
–
For calculating the filling pressure, see chapter 7.2 "Determining the
P
minimum operating pressure for the controller" on page 9 .
3.
Do not use nominal diameters below the specified diameters for the
"WC"make-up lines, see chapter 6.3.1 "Floor mounting" on page 6 .
–
You will avoid an undesired cycling of the make-up.
4.
In solar plants, use the "BT" system separator tank to prepare the
water/glycol mixture.
–
Size the system separator tank with at least 1.5 times the system
volume.
