1 General safety precautions
▪ In places where there is a risk of fire due to the leakage of
flammable gases (example: thinner or gasoline), carbon fibre, ignitable dust.
▪ In places where corrosive gas (example: sulphurous acid gas) is
produced. Corrosion of copper pipes or soldered parts may cause the refrigerant to leak.

1.2.3 Refrigerant

If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide of your application for more information.
NOTICE
Make sure refrigerant piping installation complies with applicable legislation. In Europe, EN378 is the applicable standard.
NOTICE
Make sure the field piping and connections are not subjected to stress.
WARNING
During tests, NEVER pressurize the product with a pressure higher than the maximum allowable pressure (as indicated on the nameplate of the unit).
WARNING
Take sufficient precautions in case of refrigerant leakage. If refrigerant gas leaks, ventilate the area immediately. Possible risks:
▪ Excessive refrigerant concentrations in a closed room
can lead to oxygen deficiency.
▪ Toxic gas may be produced if refrigerant gas comes
into contact with fire.
WARNING
Always recover the refrigerant. Do NOT release them directly into the environment. Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the installation.
NOTICE
After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas leak. Use nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.
NOTICE
▪ To avoid compressor breakdown, do NOT charge more
than the specified amount of refrigerant.
▪ When the refrigerant system is to be opened,
refrigerant must be treated according to the applicable legislation.
WARNING
Make sure there is no oxygen in the system. Refrigerant may only be charged after performing the leak test and the vacuum drying.
▪ In case re-charge is required, refer to the nameplate of the unit. It
states the type of refrigerant and necessary amount.
▪ The unit is factory charged with refrigerant and depending on pipe
sizes and pipe lengths some systems require additional charging of refrigerant.
▪ Only use tools exclusively for the refrigerant type used in the
system, this to ensure pressure resistance and prevent foreign materials from entering into the system.
▪ Charge the liquid refrigerant as follows:
If Then
A siphon tube is present
(i.e., the cylinder is marked with "Liquid filling siphon attached")
A siphon tube is NOT present Charge with the cylinder upside
▪ Open refrigerant cylinders slowly.
▪ Charge the refrigerant in liquid form. Adding it in gas form may
prevent normal operation.
CAUTION
When the refrigerant charging procedure is done or when pausing, close the valve of the refrigerant tank immediately. If the valve is not closed immediately, remaining pressure might charge additional refrigerant. Possible consequence: Incorrect refrigerant amount.
Charge with the cylinder upright.
down.

1.2.4 Brine

If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide of your application for more information.
WARNING
The selection of the brine MUST be in accordance with the applicable legislation.
WARNING

1.2.6 Electrical

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
▪ Turn OFF all power supply before removing the
switch box cover, connecting electrical wiring or touching electrical parts.
▪ Disconnect the power supply for more than 1minute,
and measure the voltage at the terminals of main circuit capacitors or electrical components before servicing. The voltage MUST be less than 50 V DC before you can touch electrical components. For the location of the terminals, see the wiring diagram.
▪ Do NOT touch electrical components with wet hands.
▪ Do NOT leave the unit unattended when the service
cover is removed.
WARNING
If NOT factory installed, a main switch or other means for disconnection, having a contact separation in all poles providing full disconnection under overvoltage category III condition, shall be installed in the fixed wiring.
WARNING
▪ ONLY use copper wires.
▪ Make sure the field wiring complies with the applicable
legislation.
▪ All field wiring must be performed in accordance with
the wiring diagram supplied with the product.
▪ NEVER squeeze bundled cables and make sure they
do not come in contact with the piping and sharp edges. Make sure no external pressure is applied to the terminal connections.
▪ Make sure to install earth wiring. Do NOT earth the unit
to a utility pipe, surge absorber, or telephone earth. Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock.
▪ Make sure to use a dedicated power circuit. NEVER
use a power supply shared by another appliance.
▪ Make sure to install the required fuses or circuit
breakers.
▪ Make sure to install an earth leakage protector. Failure
to do so may cause electric shock or fire.
▪ When installing the earth leakage protector, make sure
it is compatible with the inverter (resistant to high frequency electric noise) to avoid unnecessary opening of the earth leakage protector.
NOTICE
Precautions when laying power wiring:
▪ Do not connect wiring of different thicknesses to the
power terminal block (slack in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat).
▪ When connecting wiring which is the same thickness,
do as shown in the figure below.
▪ For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect
firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure being exerted on the terminal board.
▪ Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the
terminal screws. A screwdriver with a small head will damage the head and make proper tightening impossible.
▪ Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.
Install power cables at least 1 metre away from televisions or radios to prevent interference. Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 1metre may not be sufficient.
WARNING
▪ After finishing the electrical work, confirm that each
electrical component and terminal inside the electrical components box is connected securely.
▪ Make sure all covers are closed before starting up the
unit.
NOTICE
Only applicable if the power supply is three‑phase, and the compressor has an ON/OFF starting method.
If there exists the possibility of reversed phase after a momentary black out and the power goes on and off while the product is operating, attach a reversed phase protection circuit locally. Running the product in reversed phase can break the compressor and other parts.

part of the outdoor unit, and wired to control box EKCB07CAV3.
Domestic hot water tank
Because the system offers a wide flexibility to control the temperature in each room, you need to answer the following questions first:
▪ How many rooms are heated (or cooled) by the Daikin heatpump
system?
▪ Which heat emitter types are used in each room and what is their
design leaving water temperature?
Once the space heating/cooling requirements are clear, Daikin recommends to follow the setup guidelines below.
NOTICE
If an external room thermostat is used, the external room thermostat will control the room frost protection. However, the room frost protection is only possible if the leaving water temperature control on the unit's user interface is turned ON.
INFORMATION
In case an external room thermostat is used and room frost protection needs to be guaranteed in all conditions, then you have to set auto emergency [A.5.1.2] to 1.

5.2.2 Multiple rooms – OneLWT zone
If only one leaving water temperature zone is needed because the design leaving water temperature of all heat emitters is the same, you do NOT need a mixing valve station (cost effective).
Example: If the heat pump system is used to heat up one floor where all the rooms have the same heat emitters.
Underfloor heating or radiators – Thermostatic valves
If you are heating up rooms with under floor heating or radiators, a very common way is to control the temperature of the main room by using a thermostat (this can either be the user interface connected to control box EKCB07CAV3, or an external room thermostat), while the other rooms are controlled by so-called thermostatic valves (field supply), which open or close depending on the room temperature.

5.2.3 Multiple rooms – TwoLWT zones
If the heat emitters selected for each room are designed for different leaving water temperatures, you can use different leaving water temperature zones (maximum 2).
In this document:
▪ Main zone = Zone with the lowest design temperature in heating,
and the highest design temperature in cooling
▪ Additional zone = The other zone
NOTICE
If there are two leaving water temperature zones, and an external room thermostat is used, then cooling operation is NOT possible.
CAUTION
When there is more than one leaving water zone, you must ALWAYS install a mixing valve station in the main zone to decrease (in heating)/increase (in cooling) the leaving water temperature when the additional zone has demand.
Typical example:

▪ Underfloor heating has the best performance with Altherma LT.

5.3 Setting up an auxiliary heat source for space heating

▪ Space heating can be done by:
▪ The outdoor unit
▪ An auxiliary boiler (field supply) connected to the system
▪ When the room thermostat requests heating, the outdoor unit or
the auxiliary boiler starts operating depending on the outdoor temperature (status of the changeover to external heat source). When the permission is given to the auxiliary boiler, the space heating by the outdoor unit is turned OFF.
▪ Bivalent operation is only possible for space heating, NOT for
domestic hot water production. Domestic hot water is always produced by the DHW tank connected to the outdoor unit.
INFORMATION
For bivalent operation to be possible, the system requires control box EK2CB07CAV3.
INFORMATION
▪ During heating operation of the heat pump, the
heat pump operates to achieve the desired temperature set via the user interface. When weather­dependent operation is active, the water temperature is determined automatically depending on the outdoor temperature.
▪ During heating operation of the auxiliary boiler, the
auxiliary boiler operates to achieve the desired water temperature set via the auxiliary boiler controller.
Setup
▪ Integrate the boiler as follows:

5.4.2 Selecting the volume and desired temperature for the DHW tank

People experience water as hot when its temperature is 40°C. Therefore, the DHW consumption is always expressed as equivalent hot water volume at 40°C. However, you can set the DHW tank temperature at a higher temperature (example: 53°C), which is then mixed with cold water (example: 15°C).
Selecting the volume and desired temperature for the DHW tank consists of:
1 Determining the DHW consumption (equivalent hot water
volume at 40°C).
2 Determining the volume and desired temperature for the DHW
tank.
Possible DHW tank volumes
Type Possible volumes
Standalone DHW tank ▪ 150l
▪ 200l
▪ 300l
▪ 500l
Energy saving tips
▪ If the DHW consumption differs from day to day, you can program
a weekly schedule with different desired DHW tank temperatures for each day.
▪ The lower the desired DHW tank temperature, the more cost
effective. By selecting a larger DHW tank, you can lower the desired DHW tank temperature.
▪ The heatpump itself can produce domestic hot water of maximum
55°C (50°C if outdoor temperature is low). The electrical resistance integrated in the heat pump can increase this temperature. However, this consumes more energy. Daikin recommends to set the desired DHW tank temperature below 55°C to avoid using the electrical resistance.
▪ The higher the outdoor temperature, the better the performance of
the heatpump.
▪ If energy prices are the same during the day and the night,
Daikin recommends to heat up the DHW tank during the day.
▪ If energy prices are lower during the night, Daikin recommends
to heat up the DHW tank during the night.
▪ When the heatpump produces domestic hot water, it cannot heat
up a space. When you need domestic hot water and space heating at the same, Daikin recommends to produce the domestic hot water during the night when there is lower space heating demand.
Determining the DHW consumption
Answer the following questions and calculate the DHW consumption (equivalent hot water volume at 40°C) using the typical water volumes:
▪ 1 bath
▪ 3 sink volumes
Then the DHW consumption = (3×100l)+(1×150l)+(3×10l)=480l
Determining the volume and desired temperature for the DHW tank
Formula Example
V1=V2+V2×(T2−40)/(40−T1) If:
▪ V2=180l
▪ T2=54°C
▪ T1=15°C
Then V1=280l
V2=V1×(40−T1)/(T2−T1) If:
▪ V1=480l
▪ T2=54°C
▪ T1=15°C
Then V2=307l
V1DHW consumption (equivalent hot water volume at 40°C) V2Required DHW tank volume if only heated once T2DHW tank temperature T1Cold water temperature

5.4.3 Setup and configuration – DHW tank

▪ For large DHW consumptions, you can heat up the DHW tank
several times during the day.
▪ To heat up the DHW tank to the desired DHW tank temperature,
you can use the following energy sources:
▪ Thermodynamic cycle of the heatpump
▪ Electrical booster heater
▪ For more information about:
▪ Optimizing the energy consumption for producing domestic hot
water, see "8Configuration"on page51.
▪ Connecting the electrical wiring of the domestic hot water tank
to control box EKCB07CAV3, see the installation manual of the domestic hot water tank.
▪ Connecting the water piping of the domestic hot water tank to
the outdoor unit, see the installation manual of the domestic hot water tank.

5.5 Setting up the energy metering

▪ Via the user interface, you can read out the following energy data:
▪ Produced heat
▪ Consumed energy
▪ You can read out the energy data:
▪ For space heating
▪ For space cooling
▪ For domestic hot water production
▪ You can read out the energy data:
▪ Per month
▪ Per year
INFORMATION
The calculated produced heat and consumed energy are an estimation, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

5.5.1 Produced heat

INFORMATION
The sensors used to calculate the produced heat are calibrated automatically.
INFORMATION
If glycol is present in the system ([E‑0D]=1]), then the produced heat will NOT be calculated, nor will it be displayed on the user interface.
▪ Applicable for all models.
▪ The produced heat is calculated internally based on:
▪ The leaving and entering water temperature
▪ The flow rate
▪ The power consumption of the booster heater (if applicable) in
the domestic hot water tank
▪ Setup and configuration:
▪ No additional equipment needed.
▪ Only in case a booster heater is present in the system, measure
its capacity (resistance measurement) and set the capacity via the user interface. Example: If you measure a booster heater resistance of 17.1Ω, the capacity of the heater at 230 V is 3100W.

5.5.2 Consumed energy

You can use the following methods to determine the consumed energy:
▪ Calculating
▪ Measuring
INFORMATION
You cannot combine calculating the consumed energy (example: for backup heater) and measuring the consumed energy (example: for outdoor unit). If you do so, the energy data will be invalid.
Calculating the consumed energy
▪ The consumed energy is calculated internally based on:
▪ The actual power input of the outdoor unit
▪ The set capacity of the booster heater and the optional backup
heater
▪ The voltage
▪ Setup and configuration: To get accurate energy data, measure
the capacity (resistance measurement) and set the capacity via the user interface for:
▪ The optional backup heater (step1 and step2)
▪ The booster heater
Measuring the consumed energy
▪ Preferred method because of higher accuracy.
▪ Setup and configuration:
▪ Requires option box EK2CB07CAV3.
▪ Requires external power meters.
▪ For the specifications of each type of meter, see "14Technical
data"on page90.
▪ When using electrical power meters, set the number of pulses/
kWh for each power meter via the user interface.

(sum of the outdoor unit, control box EKCB07CAV3, option box EK2CB07CAV3, the backup heater kit, and the optional booster heater).
▪ Configuration: Set the power limitation level and how it has to
be achieved via the user interface.
▪ The power limitation level can be expressed as:
▪ Maximum running current (inA)
▪ Maximum power input (inkW)
▪ The power limitation level can be activated:
▪ Permanently
▪ By digital inputs

5.6.1 Permanent power limitation

Permanent power limitation is useful to assure a maximum power or current input of the system. In some countries, legislation limits the maximum power consumption for space heating and DHW production.

5.6.2 Power limitation activated by digital inputs

Power limitation is also useful in combination with an energy management system.
The power or current of the entire Daikin system is limited dynamically by digital inputs (maximum four steps). Each power limitation level is set via the user interface by limiting one of the following:
▪ Current (in A)
▪ Power input (in kW)
The energy management system (field supply) decides the activation of a certain power limitation level. Example: To limit the maximum power of the entire house (lighting, domestic appliances, space heating…).

INFORMATION
In case more than 1 digital input is closed (at the same time), the digital input priority is fixed: DI4 priority>…>DI1.

5.6.3 Power limitation process

The outdoor unit has better efficiency than the electrical heaters. Therefore, the electrical heaters are limited and turned OFF first. The system limits power consumption in the following order:
1 Limits certain electrical heaters.
If… has priority Then set the heater priority
via the user interface to…
Domestic hot water production Booster heater.
Result: The backup heater will be turned OFF first.
Space heating Backup heater.
Result: The booster heater will be turned OFF first.
2 Turns OFF all electrical heaters.
3 Limits the outdoor unit.
4 Turns OFF the outdoor unit.
Example
If the configuration is as follows:
▪ Power limitation level does NOT allow operation of both booster
heater and backup heater (step1 and step2).
▪ Heater priority = Booster heater.
Then power consumption is limited as follows:
▪ If this is NOT possible, Daikin recommends to connect a remote
indoor sensor (option KRCS01-1).
▪ Setup:
▪ Requires control box EKCB07CAV3 and option box
EK2CB07CAV3.
▪ For installation instructions, see the installation manual of the
remote indoor sensor and the addendum book for optional equipment.
Configuration: Select room sensor [A.2.2.F.5].
Outdoor ambient temperature
▪ In the outdoor unit, the outdoor ambient temperature is measured.
Therefore, the outdoor unit must be installed on a location:
▪ At the north side of the house or at the side of the house where
the most heat emitters are located
▪ That is NOT exposed to direct sunlight
▪ If this is NOT possible, Daikin recommends to connect a remote
outdoor sensor (option EKRSCA1).
▪ Setup: For installation instructions, see the installation manual of
the remote outdoor sensor and the addendum book for optional equipment.
▪ Configuration: Select outdoor sensor [A.2.2.B].
▪ During suspend (see "8Configuration" on page 51), the outdoor
unit is turned down to reduce the standby energy losses. As a result, the outdoor ambient temperature is NOT read out.
▪ If the desired leaving water temperature is weather dependent, the
full time outdoor temperature measurement is important. This is another reason to install the optional outdoor ambient temperature sensor.

5.7 Setting up an external temperature sensor

You can connect one external temperature sensor. It can measure the indoor or outdoor ambient temperature. Daikin recommends to use an external temperature sensor in the following cases:
Indoor ambient temperature
▪ In room thermostat control, the user interface is used as room
thermostat and it measures the indoor ambient temperature. Therefore, the user interface must be installed on a location:
▪ Where the average temperature in the room can be detected
▪ That is NOT exposed to direct sunlight
▪ That is NOT near a heat source
▪ That is NOT affected by outside air or air draught because of,
for example, door opening/closing
Installer reference guide

See "14.2 Dimensions and service space" on page 90 for more detailed information about spacing guidelines.
NOTICE
▪ Do NOT stack the units on each other.
▪ Do NOT hang the unit on a ceiling.
Strong winds (≥18 km/h) blowing against the outdoor unit’s air outlet causes short circuit (suction of discharge air). This may result in:
▪ deterioration of the operational capacity;
▪ frequent frost acceleration in heating operation;
▪ disruption of operation due to decrease of low pressure or
increase of high pressure;
▪ a broken fan (if a strong wind blows continuously on the fan, it
may start rotating very fast, until it breaks).
It is recommended to install a baffle plate when the air outlet is exposed to wind.
It is recommended to install the outdoor unit with the air inlet facing the wall and NOT directly exposed to the wind.
Do NOT install the unit in the following places:
▪ Sound sensitive areas (e.g. near a bedroom and the like), so that
the operation noise will cause no trouble. Note: If the sound is measured under actual installation conditions, the measured value might be higher than the sound pressure level mentioned in Sound spectrum in the data book due to environmental noise and sound reflections.
▪ In places where a mineral oil mist, spray or vapour may be
present in the atmosphere. Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off or cause water leakage.
It is NOT recommended to install the unit in the following places because it may shorten the life of the unit:
▪ Where the voltage fluctuates a lot
▪ In vehicles or vessels

6.3 Preparing water piping

6.3.1 Water circuit requirements

INFORMATION
Also read the precautions and requirements in the "General safety precautions" chapter.
Connecting piping – Legislation. Make all piping connections in
accordance with the applicable legislation and the instructions in the "Installation" chapter, respecting the water inlet and outlet.
Connecting piping – Force. Do NOT use excessive force when
connecting the piping. Deformation of the piping can cause malfunctioning of the unit.
Connecting piping – Tools. Only use appropriate tooling to
handle brass, which is a soft material. If NOT, pipes will get damaged.
Connecting piping – Air, moisture, dust. If air, moisture or dust
gets into the circuit, problems may occur. To prevent this:
▪ Only use clean pipes
▪ Hold the pipe end downwards when removing burrs.
▪ Cover the pipe end when inserting it through a wall, to prevent
dust and/or particles entering the pipe.
▪ Use a decent thread sealant to seal connections.
NOTICE
If glycol is present in the system, make sure the thread sealant used is resistant to glycol.
Closed circuit. Use the outdoor unit ONLY in a closed water
system. Using the system in an open water system will lead to excessive corrosion.
Piping length. It is recommended to avoid long runs of piping
between the domestic hot water tank and the hot water end point (shower, bath,…) and to avoid dead ends.
Piping diameter. Select the water piping diameter in relation to
the required water flow and the available external static pressure of the pump. See "14 Technical data"on page90 for the external static pressure curves of the outdoor unit.
Water flow. It is required to guarantee a minimum flow of 12l/min.
When the flow is lower, the system will stop operation and display error 7H.
Minimum required flow rate
05+07 models 12l/min
Field supply components – Water and glycol. Only use
materials that are compatible with the water (and, if applicable, glycol) used in the system, and with the materials used in the outdoor unit.
Field supply components – Water pressure and temperature.
Check that all components in the field piping can withstand the water pressure and water temperature.
Water pressure. The maximum water pressure is 3bar. Provide
adequate safeguards in the water circuit to ensure that the maximum pressure is NOT exceeded.
Water temperature. All installed piping and piping accessories
(valve, connections,…) MUST withstand the following temperatures:
INFORMATION
The following illustration is an example and might NOT match your system layout.

water tank)
g Motorised 2‑way valve (field supply) h Collector
i Domestic hot water tank j Heat exchanger coil
k Booster heater FCU1...3 Fan coil unit (optional) (field supply) FHL1...3 Floor heating loop (field supply)
Drainage – Low points. Provide drain taps at all low points of the
system in order to allow complete drainage of the water circuit.
Drainage – Pressure relief valve. Provide a proper drain for the
pressure relief valve to avoid water coming into contact with electrical parts.
Air vents. Provide air vents at all high points of the system, which
must also be easily accessible for servicing. The outdoor unit has a manual air purge valve. The backup heater (option) has an automatic air purge valve. Check that automatic air purge valves are NOT tightened too much, so that the automatic release of air from the water circuit is possible.
Zn-coated parts. Never use Zn-coated parts in the water circuit.
Because the unit's internal water circuit uses copper piping, excessive corrosion may occur.
Non-brass metallic piping. When using non-brass metallic
piping, insulate the brass and non-brass properly so that they do NOT make contact with each other. This to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Valve – Separating circuits. When using a 3-way valve in the
water circuit make sure that the domestic hot water circuit and the floor heating circuit is fully separated.
Valve – Change‑over time. When using a 2-way valve or a 3-way
valve in the water circuit, the maximum change-over time of the valve must be 60seconds.

Filter. It is strongly recommended to install an additional filter on
the heating water circuit. Especially to remove metallic particles from foul heating piping, it is recommended to use a magnetic or cyclone filter, which can remove small particles. Small particles may damage the unit and will NOT be removed by the standard filter of the heat pump system.
Domestic hot water tank – Capacity. To avoid stagnation of
water, it is important that the storage capacity of the domestic hot water tank meets the daily consumption of domestic hot water.
Domestic hot water tank – After installation. Immediately after
installation, the domestic hot water tank must be flushed with fresh water. This procedure must be repeated at least once a day the first 5 consecutive days after installation.
Domestic hot water tank – Standstills. In cases where during
longer periods of time there is no consumption of hot water, the equipment MUST be flushed with fresh water before usage.
Domestic hot water tank – Disinfection. For the disinfection
function of the domestic hot water tank, see "8.3.2Domestic hot
water control: advanced"on page66.
Thermostatic mixing valves. In accordance with the applicable
legislation, it may be necessary to install thermostatic mixing valves.
Hygienic measures. The installation must be in compliance with
the applicable legislation and may require additional hygienic installation measures.
Recirculation pump. In accordance with the applicable
legislation, it may be required to connect a recirculation pump in between the hot water end point and the recirculation connection of the domestic hot water tank.

6.3.2 Formula to calculate the expansion vessel pre-pressure

The pre-pressure (Pg) of the vessel depends on the installation height difference (H):
Pg=0.3+(H/10) (bar)
INFORMATION
In critical processes, or in rooms with a high heat load, extra water might be required.
NOTICE
When circulation in each space heating loop is controlled by remotely controlled valves, it is important that the minimum water volume is guaranteed, even if all of the valves are closed.

NOTICE
The maximum water volume depends on whether glycol is added to the water circuit. For more information on the addition of glycol, refer to "7.7.6To protect the water circuit
against freezing"on page40.
Use the following graph to determine the maximum water volume for the calculated pre-pressure.

6.3.3 To check the water volume and flow rate

The outdoor unit has an expansion vessel of 7 litre with a factory-set pre-pressure of 1 bar
To make sure that the unit operates properly:
▪ You must check the minimum and maximum water volume.
▪ You might need to adjust the pre-pressure of the expansion
vessel.

(b) The maximum water volume is 185l in case the circuit is
only filled with water, and 105l in case the circuit is filled with water and glycol.
Minimum flow rate
Check that the minimum flow rate (required during defrost/backup heater operation) in the installation is guaranteed in all conditions.
NOTICE
If glycol was added to the water circuit, and the temperature of the water circuit is low, the flow rate will NOT be displayed on the user interface. In this case, the minimum flow rate can be checked by way of the pump test (check that the user interface does NOT display error 7H).
NOTICE
When circulation in each or certain space heating loops is controlled by remotely controlled valves, it is important that the minimum flow rate is guaranteed, even if all valves are closed. In case the minimum flow rate cannot be reached, a flow error 7H will be generated (no heating/operation).
Minimum required flow rate

a Schräder valve

6.3.5 To check the water volume: Examples

Example 1
The outdoor unit is installed 5m below the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 100l.
No actions or adjustments are required.
Example 2
The outdoor unit is installed at the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 350l. The concentration of propylene glycol is 35%.
Actions:
▪ Because the total water volume (350l) is more than the default
water volume (105l), the pre-pressure must be decreased.
▪ The required pre-pressure is:
Pg = (0.3+(H/10))bar = (0.3+(0/10))bar=0.3bar.
▪ The corresponding maximum water volume at 0.3 bar is 150 l.
(See the graph in the chapter above).
▪ Because 350l is more than 150l, the expansion vessel is NOT
appropriate for the installation. Therefore the system requires an external expansion vessel.

6.3.4 Changing the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel

NOTICE
Only a licensed installer may adjust the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel.
When changing the default pre-pressure of the expansion vessel (1bar) is required, take following guidelines into account:
▪ Only use dry nitrogen to set the expansion vessel pre-pressure.
▪ Inappropriate setting of the expansion vessel pre-pressure will
lead to malfunction of the system.
Changing the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel should be done by releasing or increasing nitrogen pressure through the schräder valve of the expansion vessel.

6.4.2 About preferential kWh rate power supply

Electricity companies throughout the world work hard to provide reliable electric service at competitive prices and are often authorized to bill clients at benefit rates. E.g. time-of-use rates, seasonal rates, Wärmepumpentarif in Germany and Austria, ...
This equipment allows for connection to such preferential kWh rate power supply delivery systems.
Consult with the electricity company acting as provider at the site where this equipment is to be installed to know whether it is appropriate to connect the equipment in one of the preferential kWh rate power supply delivery systems available, if any.
When the equipment is connected to such preferential kWh rate power supply, the electricity company is allowed to:
▪ interrupt power supply to the equipment for certain periods of time;
▪ demand that the equipment only consumes a limited amount of
electricity during certain periods of time.
