1.2.4 Preventing the risk of
injury from corrosive
brine fluid
The brine fluid ethylene glycol is
harmful to health.
▶
Avoid contact with the skin
and eyes.
▶
Always wear gloves and pro-
tective goggles.
▶
Do not inhale or swallow.
▶
Observe the safety data sheet
that accompanies the brine
fluid.
1.2.5 Preventing the risk of
injury due to scalding
from hot and cold
components
Particularly in the coolant cir-
cuit, the components of the heat
pump can reach high temperat-
ures or extremely low temperat-
ures.
▶
Do not touch any uninsulated
pipelines in any part of the
heating installation.
▶
Do not remove any casing
sections.
1.2.6 Risk of being scalded by
hot drinking water
There is a risk of scalding at
the hot water draw-off points
if the hot water temperatures
are greater than 50 °C. Young
children and elderly persons are
particularly at risk, even at lower
temperatures.
▶
Select the temperature so
that nobody is at risk.
1.2.7 Risk of death due to lack
of safety devices
A lack of safety devices (e.g.
expansion relief valve, expan-
sion vessel) can lead to poten-
tially fatal scalding and other
injuries, e.g. due to explosions.
▶
Have your competent person
check that all required isolator
devices are present in your
heating installation.
1.2.8 Preventing the risk of
injury from freezing
as a result of touching
coolant
The product is delivered with
an operational filling of R410A
coolant. This is a chlorine-free
coolant which does not affect
the Earth's ozone layer. R410A
is neither a fire hazard nor an
explosion risk. Escaping coolant
may cause freezing if the exit
point is touched.
▶
If coolant escapes, do not
touch any components of the
product.
▶
Do not inhale any steam or
gases that escape from the
coolant circuit as a result of
leaks.
