Space heating application by either the Daikin unit or by an auxiliary
boiler connected in the system. The decision whether either the
EBHQ* unit or the boiler will operate can be achieved by an auxiliary
contact or an EKCB* indoor controlled contact.
The auxiliary contact can e.g. be an outdoor temperature thermostat,
an electricity tariff contact, a manually operated contact, etc. See
"Field wiring configuration A" on page 10.
The EKCB* unit controlled contact (also called "permission signal for
the auxiliary boiler") is determined by the outdoor temperature
(thermistor located at the outdoor unit). See "Field wiring
configuration B" on page 10.
Bivalent operation is only possible for space heating operation, not
for the domestic water heating operation. Domestic hot water in such
an application is always provided by the domestic hot water tank
which is connected to the Daikin unit.
The auxiliary boiler must be integrated in the piping work and in the
field wiring according to the illustrations below.

Operation
■Configuration A
When the room thermostat requests heating, either the EBHQ*
unit or the boiler starts operating, depending on the position of
the auxiliary contact (A).
■Configuration B
When the room thermostat requests heating, either the EBHQ*
unit or the boiler starts operating, depending on the outdoor
temperature (status of "permission signal for the auxiliary
boiler").
When the permission is given towards the boiler, the space
heating operation by the EBHQ* unit will be automatically
switched off.
Make sure that auxiliary contact (A) has sufficient
differential or time delay so as to avoid frequent
changeover between the EBHQ* unit and the boiler. If
the auxiliary contact (A) is an outdoor temperature
thermostat, make sure to install the thermostat in the
shade, so that it is not influenced or turned ON/OFF
by the sun.
Configuration B
Make sure that the bivalent hysteresis [C-04] has
sufficient differential to avoid frequent changeover
between the EBHQ* unit and the boiler. As the outdoor
temperature is measured via the outdoor unit’s air
thermistor, make sure to install the outdoor unit in the
shade, so that it is not influenced by the sun.
Frequent switching may cause corrosion of the boiler
in an early stage. Contact the manufacturer of the
boiler.
■During heating operation of the EBHQ* unit, the unit
will operate so as to achieve the target leaving water
temperature as set on the user interface. When
weather dependent operation is active, the water
temperature is determined automatically depending
on the outdoor temperature.
During heating operation of the boiler, the boiler will
operate so as to achieve the target leaving water
temperature as set on the boiler controller.
Never set the target leaving water temperature set
point on the boiler controller above 55°C.
■Make sure to only have 1 expansion vessel in the
water circuit. An expansion vessel is already
premounted in the unit.
8.6. Application 6
Space heating with room thermostat application through floor heating
loops and fan coil units. The floor heating loops and fan coil units
require different operating water temperatures.
The floor heating loops require a lower water temperature in heating
mode compared to fan coil units. To achive these two set points, a
mixing station is used to adapt the water temperature according to
requirements of the floor heating loops. The fan coil units are directly
connected to the unit water circuit and the floor heating loops after
the mixing station. The control of this mixing station is not done by the
unit.
The operation and configuration of the field water circuit is the
responsibility of the installer.
Daikin only offers a dual set point control function. By this function
two set points can be generated. Depending on the required water
temperature (floor heating loops and/or fan coil units are required)
first set point or second set point can be activated.

NOTICE
Make sure to configure the DIP switch SS2-3 on the PCB
of the EKCB(H/X)* switch box correctly. Refer to
"12.2. Room thermostat installation configuration" on
page 21.
For configuration B: Make sure to configure the field
settings [C-02, C-03 and C-04] correctly. Refer to "Bivalent
operation" on page 32.
NOTICE
Make sure that return water to the EBHQ* heat exchanger
never exceeds 55°C.
For this reason, never put the target leaving water
temperature set point on the boiler controller above 55°C
and install an aquastat
(a)
valve in the return water flow of
the EBHQ* unit.
Make sure that the non-return valves (field supply) are
correctly installed in the system.
Make sure that the room thermostat (th) is not frequently
turned ON/OFF.
Daikin shall not be held liable for any damage resulting
from failure to observe this rule.
(a) The aquastat valve must be set for 55°C and must operate to close the return
water flow to the unit when the measured temperature exceeds 55°C. When the
temperature drops to a lower level, the aquastat valve must operate to open the
return water flow to the EBHQ* unit again.

INFORMATION
■The advantage of the dual set point control is that the
heat pump will/can operate at the lowest required
leaving water temperature when only floor heating is
required. Higher leaving water temperatures are only
required in case fan coil units are operating.
This results in a better performance of the heat pump.
■The hydraulic balance is very important. (outdoor unit
- heater kit (if applicable) - mixing station - FCU1...3)
INFORMATION
Manual permission towards the EBHQ* unit on the boiler.
In case only the EBHQ* unit should operate in space
heating mode, disable the bivalent operation via setting
[C-02].
In case only the boiler should operate in space heating
mode, increase the bivalent ON temperature [C-03] to
25°C.

Pump operation and space heating
When the room thermostat for the floor heating loop (T1) and the fan
coil units (T2) are connected to the indoor unit, the pump (3) will
operate when there is a request for heating from T1 and/or T2. The
outdoor unit will start operating to achieve the target leaving water
temperature. The target leaving water temperature depends on which
room thermostat is requesting heating.

9.1. Inspection
At delivery, the unit must be checked and any damage must be
reported immediately to the carrier’s claims agent.
9.2. Handling
■The unit is packed in a cardboard box.
■When handling the unit, take into account the following:
Fragile, handle the unit with care
Keep the unit upright
9.3. Unpacking
WARNING
Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that
children will not play with them. Children playing with
plastic bags face danger of death by suffocation.
Make sure that all accessories as mentioned in "4.2. Accessories
supplied with the indoor unit" on page 5 are available in the unit.
NOTICE
■The request signals for space heating can be
implemented in two different ways (installer choice).
- Thermo ON/OFF signal from room thermostat
- Status signal (active/not active) from the mixing
station
■It is the installers responsibility to make sure no
unwanted situations can occur (e.g. too high water
temperatures towards floor heating loops, etc.)
■Daikin does not offer any type of mixing station. Dual
set point control only provides the possibility to use
two set points.
■When only zone A requests heating, zone B will be
fed with water at a temperature equal to the first set
point.
This can lead to unwanted heating of zone B.
■When only zone B requests heating, the mixing
station will be fed with water at a temperature equal to
the second set point.
Depending on the control of the mixing station, the
floor heating loop can still receive water at a
temperature equal to set point of the mixing station.
■Be aware that the actual water temperature through
the floor heating loops depends on the control and
setting of the mixing station.
