Water pipework

All piping lengths and distances have been taken into consideration.
Requirement
Maximum allowable distance between the 3-way valve and
the unit (only for installations with domestic hot water tank).
Maximum allowable distance between the domestic hot
water tank and the unit (only for installations with domestic
hot water tank). The thermistor cable supplied with the
domestic hot water tank is 12 m in length.
NOTE If the installation is equipped with a domestic hot water
tank (optional), please refer to the domestic hot water
tank installation manual.
In case of a power supply failure or pump operating failure,
drain the system (as suggested in the figure below).
A
When water is at standstill inside the system, freezing up is
very likely to happen and damaging the system in the
proces.

Checking the water circuit

The units are equipped with a water inlet and water outlet for
connection to a water circuit. This circuit must be provided by a
licensed technician and must comply with all relevant European and
national regulations.
The unit is only to be used in a closed water system.
Application in an open water circuit can lead to excessive
corrosion of the water piping.
Before continuing the installation of the unit, check the following
points:
The maximum water pressure is 3 bar.
Drain taps must be provided at all low points of the system to
permit complete drainage of the circuit during maintenance.
A drain valve is provided in the unit to drain the water from the
unit water system.
Air vents must be provided at all high points of the system. The
vents should be located at points which are easily accessible for
servicing. An automatic air purge is provided inside the unit.
Check that this air purge valve is not tightened too much so that
automatic release of air in the water circuit remains possible.
Take care that the components installed in the field piping can
withstand the water pressure.
Checking the water volume and expansion vessel
pre-pressure
The unit is equipped with an expansion vessel of 10 litre which has a
default pre-pressure of 1 bar.
To assure proper operation of the unit, the pre-pressure of the
expansion vessel might need to be adjusted and the minimum and
maximum water volume must be checked.
1 Check that the total water volume in the installation, excluding
the internal water volume of the unit, is 20 l minimum. Refer to
"Technical specifications" on page 32 to know the internal water
volume of the unit.
In most applications this minimum water volume will have a
satisfying result.
In critical processes or in rooms with a high heat load
though, extra water volume might be required.
When circulation in each space heating loop is controlled
by remotely controlled valves, it is important that this
minimum water volume is kept even if all the valves are
closed.
