3.2 Features and safety devices

Easy to operate and environmentally friendly
The heat pump has user interface with easy use menu keys for programming. The heat pump is also environmentally friendly as it transfers heat from the surrounding area into the water.
Heating capacity
The unit absorbs ambient energy and releases the heat into the water stored in the tank. If the ambient temperature is low, the heating capacity of the heat pump will be reduced, but you can still rely on the electric element for backup: the electrical element will automatically turn on below 0 °C to assist the heat pump module.
6 720 808 869 (2017/06) Compress 3000 DW FOO
Thermal Cut Out (TCOs)
The water heater is equipped with one thermal cut-out (TCO) located near the heating element. If for any reason the water temperature becomes excessively high, the thermal cut-out (TCO) cuts the power circuit to the heating element. Once activated, the TCO must be reset manually. Resetting of the temperature limiting control must be done by a qualified service technician.
CAUTION:
The cause of the high temperature condition must be investigated by a qualified service technician and corrective actions must be taken before placing the water heater in service again.
Defrosting
During the heating, when the air temperature is between -7 °C and 10 °C frost may be form ed at the evaporator, thus blocking the air flow and reducing the heat transfer efficiency. To avoid this occuring, the appliance will automatically defrost the evaporator by injecting hot refrigerant gas into the evaporator circuit via a bypass valve. The control of this functionality relies on the temperature readings of the air and fins sensors. The defrost cycles last typically between 5 and 15 minutes and their frequency depends on the environmental conditions (a ir temperature and relative humidity). During the defrost cycles only the compressor runs. After the evaporator defrost is concluded the unit returns to normal operation. In case the air flow is restraint, for instance due to high wind intensity at the air outlet, the frequency of defrost cycles might increase.
Working condition
The appliance is designed to operate with best efficiency when the air temperature is between -7 °C and +40 °C. Care should be taken to feed the unit only with potable water ( section 4.9.1). Do not use untreated water from lakes, rivers or groundwater!
Overheating protection
In case the water temperature near the electrical heating element reaches 844 °C the power to the electrical element is cut off by a thermostat mounted together with the electrical heater and will require a manual reset.
Water temperature and pressure protection
The unit is supplied with a PTR valve for your safety (supplied accessory). If the tank pressure reaches 1000kPa or the temperature reaches 99 °C, the PTR valve will open automatically to allow the pressure or temperature to decrease to safe values.
The warranty can become void if relief valves or other safety devices are tampered with or if the installation is not in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
Mains Pressure
This water heater is designed for direct connection to mains water supply. In case the mains supply pressure exceeds 800kPa, a pressure limiting valve must be installed (section 4.4.4). A minimum water supply pressure of 200kPa is required to assure the effective operation of this water heater.

System basic theory
The refrigerant circuit is a closed system in which the refrigerant R134a circulates as a heat transfer medium.
The evaporator transfers the heat from the air to the refrigerant circuit, and the refrigerant evaporates into a gas.
The compressor compresses the refrigerant R134a, thus increasing its temperature.
Then, the heat is transferred via a heat exchanger, also referred to as a condenser, to the storage water tank. The refrigerant R134a condenses in the process.
R134a flows through the expansion valve in a liquid state with decreasing pressure, thus completing the cycle by being routed back to the evaporator.
Brief overview of the appliance operation
Between 0 °C and 40 °C air temperature the appliance only uses the economical heat pump cycle. However, it is possible to manually turn on the electrical heater together with the heat pump when the air is above 0 °C (One shot boost). Once the set point is reached the boost is automatically switched off.
Between -7 °C and 0 °C the appliance automatically switches on the electrical heater together with heat pump cycle.
When the appliance has conditions to activate both electric and compressor "FULL" is disp layed at the HMI, alternating with the top tank temperature. When compressor and electrical heater are operating together, the upper part of the tank will rise much faster than the lower part, thus boosting the recovering time for the next hot water load. Hence, with "FULL" active, if the top temperature gets near the set point and the bottom is still rather at low temperature, the appliance, will automatically switch off the electrical heater and continues the heating with the heat pump cycle only but "FULL" will remain being displayed. After the electrical heater is switched off, it is normal that the top temperature start to decrease slowly. Therefore, while rising the bottom temperature by only using the heat pump cycle and until the top temperature start to increase to set point, the electrical heater will be sw itc hed on a s m any tim es a s required to keep the top near the set point.
Outside the air ambient range temperature, the unit operates by only using the electrical heater.

CAUTION:
The water heater should not be located in an area where leakage of the tank or connection will result in damage to the area adjacent to it or to lower floors of the structure. In places where installation in such areas cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable catch pan, adequately drained, be installed under the water heater (Fig. 8).
WARNING:
This water heater SHOULD NOT be installed in an area with a corrosive atmosphere where chemicals or flammable liquids are stored or where aerosol propellants are released. When using outdoors, because of natural air movement in a room or other enclosed space, these corrosive/flammable vapours can be carried from where they are being used or stored. Any electric arc drawn within the water heater's electronic controls can ignite these vapours causing an explosion or fire, which may result in severe burns or death to those in range, as well as property damage.
