1.1 Introduction
This instruction describes the operation and installation of the Superstatic 470 SPF and 479 SPF,
together with the technical data and specifications for the Superstatic 470/479 SPF.
The static flow sensor and the computing unit may only be operated within the range of conditions
shown on the rating plate and in the technical specification. In the event of failure to comply with
these criteria, all liability of the manufacturer is excluded.
Seals may only be removed by authorised persons, if at all. If these conditions are not respected
the works guarantee expires and the manufacturer is no longer liable for calibration.
The cable between the flow sensor and the computing unit, together with the cable for the
temperature sensors, may not be shortened or modified in any way whatever.
Notes on installation of the meter:
Comply with conditions of use as defined in Directive 2004/22/EC (MID) and correct
installation positions
For further information about the installation instructions for the Superstatic 470/479, see document

1.2 Application area of Superstatic 470/479
The Superstatic 470/479 enables the Seasonal Performance Factor (SPF) of a heat pump to be
measured and its power determined. The performance factor is equivalent to the ratio between the
delivered heat capacity or useful energy and the electrical energy absorbed during a given lapse of
time. The measured values for the performance factors are shown on the Superstatic 470/479
display and can be read out via the M-Bus Communication Interface incorporated into the heat
pump-module.
