11 Taking out of service
11.1 Temporary shutdown
If no heat and no hot water supply is needed for a long time, the
ROTEX GCU compact can be shut up temporarily. However,
ROTEX recommends putting the system into standby mode (see
the documentation concerning "ROTEX controller). The heating
system is then protected from frost. The pumps and valve pro-
tection functions are active.
If there is a danger of frost, and the gas and power supply cannot
be guaranteed, then
–
the GCU compact must be emptied,
–
suitable antifreeze measures must be taken for the connected
heating system and hot water storage tank (e.g. draining).
Emptying storage tank container
Ɣ
Switch off the main switch and secure against restarting.
Ɣ
Close the gas isolation valve.
Ɣ
Connect the hose and hose connection from the accessories
set to the rear of the solar panel . When the ROTEX solar
system is connected, use the KFE cock on the solar return
flow.
Ɣ
Drain out water content from container.
Emptying heating circuit and drinking water heat
exchanger
Ɣ
Switch off the main switch and secure against restarting.
Ɣ
Close the gas isolation valve.
Ɣ
Disconnect the heating flow and return flow, as well as the
cold water inflow and the hot water outflow.
Ɣ
Connect drain hoses in hoses in such a way that the hose
opening is leakproof on the floor.
Ɣ
Allow heat exchanger to run idle according to siphon
principle.
11.2 Final shutdown and disposal
For final shutdown of the ROTEX GCU compact
Ɣ
decommissioned (see section 11.1),
Ɣ
disconnect it from all electrical, gas and water connections,
Ɣ
disposed off in a professional manner.
Recommendations for disposal
The ROTEX GCU compact has an environmentally friendly
design. During the disposal process, the only waste created is
that which can be used for material or thermal recycling. The ma-
terials used that are suitable for material recycling can be sepa-
rated according to single variety.
CAUTION!
A heating system which is shut down can freeze in the
event of frost and may suffer damage.
Ɣ
Drain the heating system that is shut down if there
is danger of frost.
Ɣ
If the heating system is not drained, the gas and
power supplies must be secured and the main
switch must remain switched on.
If there is danger of frost in case of unsafe gas and
power supply only for a few days, due to the excellent
heat insulation, the emptying of the ROTEX GCU
compact can be dispensed with if the storage temper-
ature is observed regularly and does not drop below
+ 3°C.
However, there is no frost protection for the connected
heat distribution system through this.
ROTEX has complied with the standards for environ-
mentally-friendly disposal as a result of the environ-
mentally-friendly design of the GCU compact. Proper
disposal in compliance with the respective national reg-
ulations of the country of use is the responsibility of the
user/owner.
