FA ROTEX SC+HYC - 10/2009
1.3
Avoid danger
The ROTEX SC+HYC is state-of-the-art and is built to meet all recognised technical requirements. However, improper use may
result in serious physical injuries or death, as well as property damage.
To prevent such risks, install and operate ROTEX SC+HYC only:
–
as stipulated and in perfect condition,
–
with an awareness of safety and the hazards involved.
This assumes knowledge and implementation of the contents of this manual, the relevant accident prevention regulations as well
as the recognised safety-related and occupational medical rules.
1.4
intended use
The ROTEX Sanicube / HybridCube may only be used as a hot water storage tank. The ROTEX SC+HYC must be installed,
connected and operated only according to the information in this manual. For connection to an HPSU heat pump, only the specially
provided storage tank connecting sets (E-PAC) may be used.
Only electric immersion heater elements supplied by ROTEX may be used.
Any use above and beyond this is deemed to be improper use. Responsibility for any resulting damage will be borne by the
user/owner alone.
Intended use also includes the observance of maintenance and inspection conditions. Replacement parts must at least satisfy the
technical requirements defined by the manufacturer. This is the case, for example, with the use of original replacement parts.

Instructions for operating safety
Before working on the hot water storage tank and the heating system
•
Work on the hot water storage tank and heating system (e.g. installation, connection and initial commissioning) should only
be carried out by authorised and trained heating experts.
•
Switch off the mains supply before starting any work on the hot water storage tank and heating system and secure it against
unintentional switch-on.
•
Lead tamper-proof seals must not be damaged or removed.
•
Make sure that the safety valves comply with the requirements of EN 12828 when connecting on the heating side, and with
the requirements of EN 12897 when connecting on the domestic water side.
Electrical installation of optional accessories
•
Electrical installation should only be carried out by qualified electrical engineers observing the technical electrical guidelines
and regulations of the relevant electric power supply company.
•
Compare the mains voltage indicated on the type plate with the supply voltage before connecting to the mains.
Unit installation room
•
Only erect the ROTEX Sanicube / HybridCube if a ground load-bearing capacity of 1050 kg/m² plus safety factor is
guaranteed. The ground must be flat and level.
•
Erection outdoors is only possible to a limited extent. The storage tank must not be continuously exposed to direct sunlight.
•
The ROTEX Sanicube / HybridCube must be protected from frost.
Corrosion protection
In some regions, corrosive drinking water is supplied by public utility companies that can cause damage through corrosion even
in high grade stainless steels. Check with your water supply works whether corrosion problems can occur when using hot water
storage tanks made of stainless steel in your area.
Appropriate water treatment may be required.
