Transport
▶ When handling, prevent DHW cylinders from falling.
▶ Move packed DHW cylinder with a sack trolley and strap ( Fig. 4,
page 67).
-or-
▶ Move unpacked DHW cylinder with a transport net; during handling,
protect connections against possible damage.

Installation
The DHW cylinder is delivered as a fully assembled unit.
▶ Check that the DHW cylinder is complete and undamaged.
5.1
Siting
5.1.1
Installation site requirements
NOTICE: System damage through inadequate load
bearing capacity of the supporting surface or unsuitable
substrate.
▶ Ensure that the installation area is level and offers
sufficient load-bearing capacity.
▶ Site the DHW cylinder on a plinth if there is a risk that water may
collect at the installation site.
▶ Site the DHW cylinder in dry internal areas that are free from the risk
of frost.
▶ Observe the minimum room height ( Table 9, page 65) and
minimum wall clearances inside the installation room
( Fig. 6, page 67).
5.1.2
Positioning the DHW cylinder
▶ Stand the DHW cylinder upright and level it ( Fig. 7 to Fig. 8,
page 67).
▶ Apply Teflon tape or Teflon string ( Fig. 9, page 68).
5.2
Hydraulic connection
WARNING: Risk of fire through soldering and welding!
▶ Take appropriate safety measures when soldering
and welding as the thermal insulation is flammable.
For example, cover up the thermal insulation.
▶ Check cylinder casing after completion for perfect
condition.
WARNING: Risk to health through contaminated water!
Work carried out without due care for cleanliness
contaminates the potable water.
▶ Install and equip the DHW cylinder hygienically in
accordance with national standards and guidelines.

5.2.1
Connecting the DHW cylinder on the water side
System example with all recommended valves and stopcocks
( Fig. 10, page 68).
▶ Use installation material that is heat-resistant to 160 °C (320 °F).
▶ Never use open vented expansion vessels.
▶ Use metal connection fittings in DHW heating systems with plastic
lines.
▶ Size the drain line in accordance with the connection.
▶ To facilitate blow-down, never install bends in the drain line.
▶ Keep primary lines as short as possible and insulate them.
▶ If using a non-return valve in the cold water supply: Install a safety
valve between the non-return valve and the cold water inlet.
▶ Install a pressure reducer if the static system pressure is in excess of
5 bar.
▶ Seal all superfluous connections.
5.2.2
Installing a safety valve (on-site)
▶ Install a type-tested safety valve that is approved for potable water
( DN 20) in the cold water supply ( Fig. 10, page 68).
▶ Observe the safety valve installation instructions.
▶ Terminate the discharge pipe where it will be easily visible in the
frost-protected area above a drain.
– The discharge pipe must be at least equal to the outlet cross-
section of the safety valve.
– The discharge pipe must be able to discharge at least the flow rate
that is feasible at the cold water inlet ( Table 4, page 39).
▶ Attach a notice with the following text to the safety valve: "Never
close the discharge pipe. During heating, water may be discharged
for operational reasons."
If the static system pressure exceeds 80 % of the safety valve response
pressure:
▶ Install a pressure reducer upstream ( Fig. 10, page 68).

5.3
Installing the DHW temperature sensor
Fit one DHW temperature sensor respectively at test port [7] (for the
solar thermal system) and [3] (for the heat source) for capturing and
monitoring the DHW temperature at the DHW cylinder
( Fig. 3, page 66).
▶ Install the DHW temperature sensor ( Fig. 11, page 69). Ensure
that the sensor area has contact with the sensor well surface area
over its full length.
5.4
Immersion heater (accessory, only for SU200.5 E)
▶ Install the immersion heater in accordance with the separate
installation instructions.
▶ When installation of the cylinder is complete, inspect the earth
conductor (including metal connection fittings).
