If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide of your application for more information.
ERGA04~08DAV3(A) + EHVH04+08S23DAV
Daikin Altherma – Low temperature split
4P499573-1A – 2018.11
1 General safety precautions
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.
DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION
Pump down – Refrigerant leakage. If you want to pump
down the system, and there is a leak in the refrigerant circuit:
▪ Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function,
with which you can collect all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit. Possible consequence: Self-combustion and explosion of the compressor because of air going into the operating compressor.
▪ Use a separate recovery system so that the unit's
compressor does NOT have to operate.
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
Take sufficient precautions in case of brine leakage. If brine leaks, ventilate the area immediately and contact your local dealer.
WARNING
The ambient temperature inside the unit can get much higher than that of the room, e.g. 70°C. In case of a brine leak, hot parts inside the unit can create a hazardous situation.
WARNING
The use and installation of the application MUST comply with the safety and environmental precautions specified in the applicable legislation.

2 About the documentation

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, MUST 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.
CAUTION
When connecting the power supply, the earth connection must be made before the current-carrying connections are established. When disconnecting the power supply, the current-carrying connections must be separated before the earth connection is. The length of the conductors between the power supply stress relief and the terminal block itself must be as such that the current-carrying wires are tautened before the earth wire is in case the power supply is pulled loose from the stress relief.
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 above.
▪ 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.

5.2 Setting up the space heating system

The Daikin heat pump system supplies leaving water to heat emitters in one or more rooms.
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 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 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 Emergency [9.5] to Automatic.
Benefits
Highest comfort and efficiency. The smart room thermostat
functionality can decrease or increase the desired leaving water temperature based on the actual room temperature (modulation). This results in:
▪ Stable room temperature matching the desired temperature
(higher comfort)
▪ Less ON/OFF cycles (more quiet, higher comfort and higher
efficiency)
▪ Lowest possible leaving water temperature (higher efficiency)
Easy. You can easily set the desired room temperature via the
user interface:
▪ For your daily needs, you can use preset values and schedules.
▪ To deviate from your daily needs, you can temporarily overrule
the preset values and schedules, use the holiday mode…c

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 or an external room thermostat), while the other rooms are controlled by so-called thermostatic valves, 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
▪ Additional zone = Zone with the highest design temperature
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) the leaving water temperature when the additional zone has demand.
Typical example:
Room (zone) Heat emitters: Design
temperature
Living room (main zone) Underfloor heating: 35°C
Bed rooms (additional zone) Heatpump convectors: 45°C
Setup
A Main leaving water temperature zone B Room 1 C Room 2
a External room thermostat b Remote controller of the heatpump convectors
▪ For each room with heat pump convectors: The heat pump
convectors are directly connected to the indoor unit.
▪ For each room with under floor heating: A shut-off valve (field
supply) is installed before the underfloor heating. It prevents hot water supply when the room has no heating demand.
▪ For each room with heat pump convectors: The desired room
temperature is set via the remote controller of the heat pump convectors.
▪ For each room with under floor heating: The desired room
temperature is set via the external room thermostat (wired or wireless).
▪ The user interface connected to the indoor unit decides the space
operation mode. Mind that the operation mode on each external room thermostat and remote controller of the heat pump convectors must be set to match the indoor unit.

5.3 Setting up an auxiliary heat source for space heating

▪ Space heating can be done by:
▪ The indoor unit
▪ An auxiliary boiler (field supply) connected to the system
▪ When the room thermostat requests heating, the indoor 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 indoor 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 indoor unit.
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 auxiliary boiler as follows:
Benefits
Comfort.
▪ The smart room thermostat functionality can decrease or
increase the desired leaving water temperature based on the actual room temperature (modulation).
▪ The combination of the two heat emitter systems provides the
excellent heating comfort of the under floor heating, and the rapid air heat up of the heat pump convectors (e.g., living room=under floor heating and the bedroom=convector (no continuous heating)).
Efficiency.
▪ Depending on the demand, the indoor unit supplies different
leaving water temperature matching the design temperature of the different heat emitters.
▪ Underfloor heating has the best performance with Altherma LT.

thermostat, install the thermostat in the shadow so that it is NOT influenced or turned ON/OFF by direct sunlight.
▪ Frequent changeover may cause corrosion of the
auxiliary boiler. Contact the manufacturer of the auxiliary boiler for more information.

5.4 Setting up the domestic hot water tank

The DHW tank is integrated in the indoor unit, and contains a 2.4kW anti-legionella heater. The anti-legionella heater contains 2 safeties: a thermal cut-out and a thermal fuse. If a certain temperature is exceeded, the safeties deactivate the anti-legionella heater.

5.4.1 System layout – Integrated DHW tank

Changeover to external heat source decided by an auxiliary contact
▪ Only possible in external room thermostat control AND one
leaving water temperature zone (see "5.2 Setting up the space
heating system"on page11).
▪ The auxiliary contact can be:
▪ An outdoor temperature thermostat
▪ An electricity tariff contact
▪ A manually operated contact
▪ …
▪ Setup: Connect the following field wiring:

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 desired temperature for the DHW tank consists of:
1 Determining the DHW consumption (equivalent hot water
volume at 40°C).
2 Determining the desired temperature for the DHW tank.
Determining the DHW consumption
Answer the following questions and calculate the DHW consumption (equivalent hot water volume at 40°C) using typical water volumes:

1bath = 150l
1sink = 2min×5l/min = 10l
▪ 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. In case 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
Example: If the DHW consumption of a family (4 persons) per day
demand.
is as follows:
▪ 3 showers
▪ 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

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
▪ Anti-legionella heater
▪ For more information about optimizing the energy consumption for
producing domestic hot water, see "8Configuration"on page47.

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
▪ By connecting a DHW pump, instant hot water can be available at
the tap.
▪ The DHW pump and the installation are field supply and the
responsibility of the installer.

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 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.
INFORMATION
You cannot combine calculating the consumed energy (example: for anti‑legionella 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 backup heater (if applicable) and anti-
legionella 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 backup heater (step1 and step2) (if applicable)
▪ The anti-legionella heater
Measuring the consumed energy
▪ Applicable for all models.
▪ Preferred method because of higher accuracy.
▪ Requires external power meters.
▪ Setup and configuration: When using electrical power meters, set
the number of pulses/kWh for each power meter via the user interface.
INFORMATION
When measuring the electrical power consumption, make sure ALL power input of the system is covered by the electrical power meters.

5.5.3 Normal kWh rate power supply

5.5.1 Produced heat

INFORMATION
The sensors used to calculate the produced heat are calibrated automatically.
▪ 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 anti-legionella heater in the
domestic hot water tank
▪ Setup and configuration:
▪ No additional equipment needed.
▪ Measure the capacity (resistance measurement) of the anti-
legionella heater and set the capacity via the user interface. Example: If you measure an anti-legionella heater resistance of 24Ω, the capacity of the heater at 230V is 2200W.

5.5.2 Consumed energy

Exception
▪ You can use a second power meter if:
▪ The power range of one meter is insufficient.
▪ The electrical meter cannot easily be installed in the electrical
cabinet.
▪ 230 V and 400 V three-phase grids are combined (very
uncommon), because of technical limitations of power meters.
▪ Connection and setup:
▪ Connect the second power meter to X5M/3 and X5M/4.
▪ In the software the power consumption data of both meters is
added so you do NOT have to set which meter covers which power consumption. You only need to set the number of pulses of each power meter.
▪ See "5.5.4 Preferential kWh rate power supply"on page 19 for
an example with two power meters.

5.5.4 Preferential kWh rate power supply

General rule
▪ Power meter1: Measures the outdoor unit.
▪ Power meter 2: Measures the rest (i.e. indoor unit, optional
backup heater, and anti-legionella heater).
Setup
▪ Connect power meter1 to X5M/5 and X5M/6.
▪ Connect power meter2 to X5M/3 and X5M/4.
Power meter types
▪ Power meter1: Single- or three-phase power meter according to
the power supply of the outdoor unit.
▪ Power meter2:
▪ In case of no backup heater or an optional single-phase backup
heater configuration, use a single-phase power meter.

5.6 Setting up the power consumption control

▪ The power consumption control:
▪ Allows you to limit the power consumption of the entire system
(sum of outdoor unit, indoor unit, anti-legionella heater, and optional backup 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

▪ Set the power consumption control settings in [9.9] via the user
interface (for the description of all settings, see
"8Configuration"on page47):
▪ Select continuous limitation mode
▪ Select the type of limitation (power in kW or current in A)
▪ Set the desired power limitation level

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…).
Setup
▪ Demand PCB (option EKRP1AHTA) needed.
▪ Maximum four digital inputs are used to activate the
corresponding power limitation level:
▪ DI1 = weakest limitation (highest energy consumption)
▪ DI4 = strongest limitation (lowest energy consumption)
▪ For the specifications of the digital inputs, and for where to
connect them, refer to the wiring diagram.
Configuration
▪ Set the power consumption control settings in [9.9] via the user
interface (for the description of all settings, see
"8Configuration"on page47):
▪ Select limitation by digital inputs.
▪ Select the type of limitation (power in kW or current in A).
▪ Set the desired power limitation level corresponding to each
digital input.
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 priority heater
via the user interface to…
Domestic hot water production Booster heater (Anti-legionella
heater).
Result: The backup heater (if applicable) will be turned OFF first.
Space heating Backup heater (if applicable).
Result: The anti-legionella heater will be turned OFF first.

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 used as room
thermostat (EKRUDAS) measures the indoor ambient temperature. Therefore, the user interface used as room thermostat 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
▪ If this is NOT possible, Daikin recommends to connect a remote
indoor sensor (option KRCS01-1).
▪ Setup: For installation instructions, see the installation manual of
the remote indoor sensor.
▪ Configuration: Select room sensor [9.B].
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.
▪ Configuration: Select outdoor sensor [9.B].
▪ When the power saving functionality of the outdoor unit is active
(see "8 Configuration" on page 47), the outdoor unit is turned down to reduce 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.
INFORMATION
The external outdoor ambient sensor data (either averaged or instantaneous) is used in the weather-dependent control curves. To protect the outdoor unit, the internal sensor of the outdoor unit is always used.
▪ Preparing the refrigerant piping
▪ Preparing the water piping
▪ Preparing the electrical wiring

6.2 Preparing the installation site

Do NOT install the unit in places often used as work place. In case of construction works (e.g. grinding works) where a lot of dust is created, the unit MUST be covered.
Choose an installation location with sufficient space for carrying the unit in and out of the site.
WARNING
The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources (example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).

6.4 Preparing water piping

Valve towards expansion vessel. The valve towards the
expansion vessel (if equipped) MUST be open.

6.4.1 Water circuit requirements

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.
Closed circuit. Use the indoor unit ONLY in a closed water
system. Using the system in an open water system will lead to excessive corrosion.
Glycol. For safety reasons, it is NOT allowed to add any kind of
glycol to the water circuit.
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88 for the external static pressure curves of the indoor unit.
Water flow. You can find the minimum required water flow for
indoor unit operation in the following table. In all cases, this flow needs to be guaranteed. When the flow is lower, the indoor unit will stop operation and display error 7H.
Minimum required flow rate
12l/min
Field supply components – Water. Only use materials that are
compatible with water used in the system and with the materials used in the indoor 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 4 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.
INFORMATION
Also read the precautions and requirements in the "General safety precautions" chapter.
NOTICE
In case of plastic pipes, make sure they are fully oxygen diffusion tight according to DIN 4726. The diffusion of oxygen into the piping can lead to excessive corrosion.
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.

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. Connect the drain hose
properly to the drain to avoid water dripping out of the unit. See
"7.4.4To connect the drain hose to the drain"on page34.
Air vents. Provide air vents at all high points of the system, which
must also be easily accessible for servicing. Two automatic air purges are provided in the indoor unit. Check that the air purges are NOT tightened too much, so that automatic release of air in 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 – 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.
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 "8.4.6 Tank" on
page60.
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.
a Recirculation connection b Hot water connection c Shower d Recirculation pump
Valve towards expansion vessel. The valve towards the
expansion vessel (if equipped) MUST be open.

6.4.2 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)

6.4.3 To check the water volume and flow rate

The indoor unit has an expansion vessel of 10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.
Minimum water volume
Check that the total water volume in the installation is minimum 20litres without backup heater and minimum 10litres with optional backup heater, the internal water volume of the indoor unit NOT included.
INFORMATION
In critical processes, or in rooms with a high heat load, extra water might be required.
NOTICE
When circulation in each space heating/cooling 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.

a Schrader valve

6.4.5 To check the water volume: Examples

Example 1
The indoor 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 indoor unit is installed at the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 250l.
Actions:
▪ Because the total water volume (250l) is more than the default
water volume (200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 290 l.
(See the graph in the chapter above).
▪ Because 250 l is lower than 290 l, the expansion vessel is
appropriate for the installation.

6.5 Preparing electrical wiring

6.5.1 About preparing electrical wiring

WARNING
The anti-legionella heater MUST have a dedicated power supply and MUST be protected by the safety devices required by the applicable legislation.
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.

6.5.2 About preferential kWh rate power supply

7.5.6 To braze the pipe end

The indoor unit and outdoor unit have flare connections. Connect both ends without brazing. If brazing should be needed, take the following into account:
▪ When brazing, blow through with nitrogen to prevent creation of
large quantities of oxidised film on the inside of the piping. This film adversely affects valves and compressors in the refrigerating system and prevents proper operation.
▪ Set the nitrogen pressure to 20kPa (0.2bar) (just enough so it
can be felt on the skin) with a pressure-reducing valve.

f Nitrogen
▪ Do NOT use anti-oxidants when brazing pipe joints.
Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.
▪ Do NOT use flux when brazing copper-to-copper refrigerant
piping. Use phosphor copper brazing filler alloy (BCuP), which does not require flux. Flux has an extremely harmful influence on refrigerant piping systems. For instance, if chlorine based flux is used, it will cause pipe corrosion or, in particular, if the flux contains fluorine, it will deteriorate the refrigerant oil.

7.5.7 Using the stop valve and service port

7.6 Checking the refrigerant piping

7.6.1 About checking the refrigerant piping

The outdoor unit's internal refrigerant piping has been factory tested for leaks. You only have to check the outdoor unit's external refrigerant piping.
Before checking the refrigerant piping
Make sure the refrigerant piping is connected between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit.
Typical workflow
Checking the refrigerant piping typically consists of the following stages:
1 Checking for leaks in the refrigerant piping.
2 Performing vacuum drying to remove all moisture, air or
nitrogen from the refrigerant piping.
If there is a possibility of moisture being present in the refrigerant piping (for example, water may have entered the piping), first carry out the vacuum drying procedure below until all moisture has been removed.
NOTICE
Make sure to use a recommended bubble test solution from your wholesaler. Do not use soap water, which may cause cracking of flare nuts (soap water may contain salt, which absorbs moisture that will freeze when the piping gets cold), and/or lead to corrosion of flared joints (soap water may contain ammonia which causes a corrosive effect between the brass flare nut and the copper flare).
1 Charge the system with nitrogen gas up to a gauge pressure of
at least 200 kPa (2 bar). It is recommended to pressurize to 3000kPa (30bar) in order to detect small leaks.
2 Check for leaks by applying the bubble test solution to all
connections.
3 Discharge all nitrogen gas.

7 Installation
NOTICE
▪ A drain device and pressure relief device must be
installed on the cold water inlet connection of the domestic hot water cylinder.
▪ To avoid back siphonage, it is recommended to install a
non-return valve on the water inlet of the domestic hot water tank in accordance with the applicable legislation.
▪ It is recommended to install the pressure relief valve on
a higher position than the top of the domestic hot water tank. Heating of the domestic hot water tank causes water to expand and without pressure relief valve the water pressure inside the tank can rise above the tank design pressure. Also the field installation (piping, tapping points, etc.) connected to the tank is subjected to this high pressure. To prevent this, a pressure relief valve needs to be installed. The overpressure prevention depends on the correct operation of the field installed pressure relief valve. If this is NOT working correctly, overpressure will deform the tank and water leakage may occur. To confirm good operation, regular maintenance is required.

7.8.4 To connect the recirculation piping

Prerequisite: Only required if you need recirculation in your system.
1 Remove the top panel from the unit, see "7.2.3 To open the

Make sure both air purge valves (one on the magnetic filter, and one between the 3‑way valve and flow sensor) are open.

7.8.6 To fill the domestic hot water tank

1 Open every hot water tap in turn to purge air from the system
pipe work.
2 Open the cold water supply valve.
3 Close all water taps after all air is purged.
4 Check for water leaks.
5 Manually operate the field-installed pressure relief valve to
ensure a free water flow through the discharge pipe.
NOTICE
To operate the system, the domestic hot water tank needs to be filled completely. Turning on the system when the tank is not full can damage the integrated anti-legionella heater and cause electrical errors.

7.8.7 To insulate the water piping

The piping in the complete water circuit MUST be insulated to prevent condensation during defrost operation and reduction of the heating capacity.
If the temperature is higher than 30°C and the humidity is higher than RH 80%, the thickness of the insulation materials should be at least 20 mm to prevent condensation on the surface of the insulation.

Emitter type
Depending on the system water volume and the heater emitter type of the main zone, the heat up of the main zone can take longer. This setting can compensate for a slow or a quick heating system during the heat up cycle. The target delta T for the main zone will depend on this setting.
In room thermostat control, this setting will influence the maximum modulation of the desired leaving water temperature.
Therefore it is important to set this correctly and in accordance with your system layout.

2: Radiator Maximum 65°C Fixed 10°C
NOTICE
The maximum setpoint in space heating depends on the emitter type as can be seen in above table. If there are 2 water temperature zones, then the maximum setpoint is the maximum of the 2 zones.
CAUTION
If there are 2 zones, it is important that the zone with the lowest water temperature is configured as the main zone, and the zone with the highest water temperature is configured as the additional zone. Not configuring the system in this way could cause damage to the heat emitters.
CAUTION
If there are 2 zones and the emitter types are wrongly configured, water of high temperature can be sent towards a low temperature emitter (underfloor heating). To avoid this:
▪ Install an aquastat/thermostatic valve to avoid too high
temperatures towards a low temperature emitter.
▪ Make sure you set the emitter types for the main zone
[2.7] and for the additional zone [3.7] correctly in accordance with the connected emitter.
INFORMATION
Depending on the target delta T, the average emitter temperature will vary. To counteract the effect on the average emitter temperature due to a higher delta T target, the leaving water setpoint (fixed or weather dependent) can be adjusted.
Setpoint range
You can limit the range of the leaving water temperature for the main leaving water temperature zone. The purpose of this setting is to prevent a wrong (i.e. too hot or too cold) leaving water temperature. Therefore, the available desired heating temperature range can be configured.
NOTICE
In case of a floor heating application it is important to limit the maximum leaving water temperature at heating operation according to the specifications of the floor heating installation.
NOTICE
▪ When adjusting the leaving water temperature ranges,
all desired leaving water temperatures are also adjusted to guarantee they are between the limits.
▪ Always balance between the desired leaving water
temperature with the desired room temperature and/or the capacity (according to the design and selection of the heat emitters). The desired leaving water temperature is the result of several settings (preset values, shift values, weather dependent curves, modulation). As a result, too high or too low leaving water temperatures could occur which lead to overtemperatures or capacity shortage. By limiting the leaving water temperature range to adequate values (depending on the heat emitter), such situations can be avoided.
Example: Set the minimum leaving water temperature to 28°C to avoid NOT to be able to heat up the room: leaving water temperatures MUST be sufficiently higher than the room temperatures (in heating).

thermostat can only send a thermo ON/OFF condition. There is no separation between heating or cooling demand. The room thermostat is connected to only 1 digital input (X2M/35). Select this value in case of a connection to the heat pump convector (FWXV).
▪ 2: 2 contacts: The used external room
thermostat can send a separate heating/cooling thermo ON/OFF condition. The room thermostat is connected to 2 digital inputs (X2M/35 and X2M/34). Select this value in case of a connection to the wired (EKRTWA) or wireless (EKRTR1) room thermostat
Leaving water temperature: Delta T
The target delta T in heating for the main zone depends on the emitter type for the main zone selected above. In heating, this setting indicates the temperature difference between the leaving water setpoint and entering water.
The unit is designed to support under floor loops operation. The recommended leaving water temperature for under floor loops is 35°C. In such case, the unit will be controlled to realize a temperature difference of 5°C which means that the unit entering water temperature is around 30°C. Depending on the installed application (radiators, heat pump convector, under floor loops) or situation, it can be possible to change the difference between entering and leaving water temperature. Note that the pump will regulate its flow to keep the delta T. In some special cases, the measured deltaT can be different from the set value.
INFORMATION
When only the anti‑legionella heater is active in heating, deltaT will be controlled according to the fixed capacity of the anti‑legionella heater. It is possible that this deltaT is different from the selected target deltaT.
INFORMATION
In heating, the target delta T will only be achieved after some operation time, when the setpoint is being reached, because of the big difference between leaving water temperature setpoint and inlet temperature at startup.
INFORMATION
If the main zone or the additional zone has a heating demand, and this zone is equipped with radiators, then the target delta T that the unit will use in heating operation will be 10°C fixed.
If the zones are not equipped with radiators, then in heating the unit will give priority to the target deltaT for the additional zone, if there is a heating demand in the additional zone.

Leaving water temperature: Modulation
Only applicable in case of room thermostat control. When using the room thermostat functionality, the customer needs to set the desired room temperature. The unit will supply hot water to the heat emitters and the room will be heated. Additionally, also the desired leaving water temperature must be configured: when turning on the modulation, the desired leaving water temperature will be calculated automatically by the unit (based on the preset temperatures, if weather-dependent is selected, modulation will be done based on the desired weather-dependent temperatures); when turning off the modulation, you can set the desired leaving water temperature on the user interface. Moreover, with the modulation turned on, the desired leaving water temperature is lowered or raised in function of the desired room temperature and the difference between the actual and the desired room temperature. This results in:
▪ stable room temperatures exactly matching the desired
temperature (higher comfort level)
▪ less on/off cycles (lower noise level, higher comfort and higher
efficiency)
▪ water temperatures as low as possible to match the desired
temperature (higher efficiency)
# Code Description
[2.C.1] [8‑05] Modulation:
▪ 0 No: Disabled, the desired leaving
water temperature needs to be set on the user interface.
▪ 1 Yes: Enabled, the leaving water
temperature is calculated according to the difference between the desired and the actual room temperature. This creates a better match between the capacity of the heat pump and the actual required capacity, and results in less start/stop cycles and a more economic operation. Note: The desired leaving water temperature can only be read out on the user interface.
[2.C.2] [8‑06] Max modulation:
▪ 0°C~10°C
This is the temperature value by which the desired leaving water temperature is increased or decreased.
INFORMATION
When leaving water temperature modulation is enabled, the weather‑dependent curve needs to be set to a higher position than [8-06] plus the minimum leaving water temperature setpoint required to reach a stable condition on the comfort setpoint for the room. To increase efficiency, modulation can lower the leaving water setpoint. By setting the weather‑dependent curve to a higher position, it cannot drop below the minimum setpoint. Refer to the illustration below.
b Minimum leaving water temperature setpoint required to
reach a stable condition on the comfort setpoint for the room.
Shut off valve
The following is only applicable in case of 2 leaving water temperature zones. In case of 1 leaving water temperature zone, connect the shut-off valve to the heating/cooling output.
The shut off valve for the main leaving water temperature zone can close under these circumstances:
INFORMATION
During defrost operation, the shut-off valve is ALWAYS opened.
During thermo: If [F‑0B] is enabled, the shut off valve closes when there is no heating demand from the main zone. Enable this setting to:
▪ avoid leaving water supply to the heat emitters in the main LWT
zone (through the mixing valve station) when there is request from the additional LWT zone.
▪ activate the ON/OFF pump of the mixing valve station ONLY when
there is demand.
# Code Description

Advice: In order to avoid unsuccessful disinfection function, at least allow the anti-legionella heater (by the weekly program) for minimum 4 hours starting from the scheduled start-up of disinfection. If the anti-legionella heater is restricted during disinfection, this function will NOT be successful and the applicable warning AH will be generated.
INFORMATION
In case of error code AH and no interruption of the disinfection function occurred due to domestic hot water tapping, following actions are recommended:
▪ When the Domestic hot water > Type > Reheat or
Reheat + sched. is selected, it is recommended to program the start-up of the disinfection function at least 4 hours later than the last expected large hot water tapping. This start-up can be set by installer settings (disinfection function).
▪ When the Domestic hot water > Type > Scheduled only
is selected, it is recommended to program a Storage eco 3 hours before the scheduled start-up of the disinfection function to preheat the tank.

BSH eco timer
# Code Description
[9.4.3] [8-03] Anti-legionella heater delay timer.
Start-up delay time for the anti-legionella heater when domestic hot water mode is active.
▪ When domestic hot water mode is
NOT active, the delay time is 20minutes.
▪ The delay time starts from anti-
legionella heater ON temperature.
▪ By adapting the anti-legionella heater
delay time versus the maximum running time, you can find an optimal balance between the energy efficiency and the heat up time.
▪ If the anti-legionella heater delay time
is set too high, it might take a long time before the domestic hot water reaches its set temperature.
▪ The setting [8‑03] is only meaningful if
setting [4‑03]=1. Setting [4‑03]=0/2/3/4 limits the anti-legionella heater automatically in relation to heatpump operation time in domestic water heating mode.
▪ Make sure that [8‑03] is always in
relation with the maximum running time [8‑01].
Range: 20~95 minutes
Operation
# Code Description
[9.4.4] [4-03] Defines the operation permission of the
anti-legionella heater depending on ambient, domestic hot water temperature or operation mode of heat pump. This setting is only applicable in reheat mode for applications with separate domestic hot water tank. When setting [4‑03]=1/2/3/4, the anti-legionella heater operation can still be restricted by the anti-legionella heater allowance schedule.

Emergency
Emergency
When the heat pump fails to operate, the optional backup heater and anti-legionella heater can serve as an emergency heater and either automatically or non-automatically take over the heat load.
▪ When auto emergency is set to Automatic and a heat pump failure
occurs, the optional backup heater will automatically take over the heat load, and the anti-legionella heater will automatically take over the domestic hot water production.
▪ When auto emergency is set to Manual and a heat pump failure
occurs, the domestic hot water and space heating operation will stop and need to be recovered manually via the user interface. To recover operation manually, go to the Malfunctioning main menu screen, where the user interface will then ask you to confirm whether the optional backup heater or anti-legionella heater can take over the heat load or not.
We recommend to set Emergency to Automatic if the house is unattended for longer periods.

Bivalent
Only applies to indoor unit installations with an auxiliary boiler (alternating operation, connected in parallel). The purpose of bivalent operation is to determine which heating source can/will provide the space heating, either the indoor unit or an auxiliary boiler.
# Code Description
[9.C.1] [C-02] Bivalent: Indicates if the space heating is
also performed by means of another heat source than the system.
▪ 0 No: Not installed
▪ 1 Yes: Installed. The auxiliary boiler
(gas boiler, oil burner) will operate when the outdoor ambient temperature is low. During bivalent operation, the heat pump is turned off. Set this value in case an auxiliary boiler is used.
▪ If Bivalent is enabled: When the outdoor temperature drops below
the bivalent ON temperature (fixed or variable based on energy prices), the space heating by the indoor unit stops automatically and the permission signal for the auxiliary boiler is active.
▪ If Bivalent is disabled: Space heating is only done by the indoor
unit within the operation range. The permission signal for the auxiliary boiler is always inactive.
INFORMATION
▪ The combination of setting [4‑03]=0/2 with bivalent
operation at low outdoor temperature can result in domestic hot water shortage.
▪ The bivalent operation function has no impact on the
domestic water heating mode. The domestic hot water is still and only heated by the indoor unit.
▪ The permission signal for the auxiliary boiler is located
on the EKRP1HB (digital I/O PCB). When it is activated, the contact X1, X2 is closed and open when it is deactivated. See illustration below for the schematic location of this contact.

Auto restart
When power returns after a power supply failure, the auto restart function reapplies the remote controller settings at the time of the power failure. Therefore, it is recommended to always enable the function.
If the preferential kWh rate power supply is of the type that power supply is interrupted, always enable the auto restart function. Continuous indoor unit control can be guaranteed independent of the preferential kWh rate power supply status, by connecting the indoor unit to a normal kWh rate power supply.
Disable protections
INFORMATION
The software is equipped with an "installer-on-site" mode ([9.G]: Disable protections), that disables automatic operation by the unit. At first installation, setting Disable protections is by default set to Yes, meaning automatic operation is disabled. All protective functions are then disabled. If the user interface home pages are off, the unit will NOT operate automatically. To enable automatic operation and the protective functions, set Disable protections to No.
36 hours after the first power-on, the unit will automatically set Disable protections to No, ending "installer-on-site" mode and enabling the protective functions. If – after first installation – the installer returns to the site, the installer has to set Disable protections to Yes manually.

36 hours after the first power-on, the unit will automatically set Disable protections to No, ending "installer-on-site" mode and enabling the protective functions. If – after first installation – the installer returns to the site, the installer has to set Disable protections to Yes manually.

9.1 Overview: Commissioning

This chapter describes what you have to do and know to commission the system after it is configured.
Typical workflow
Commissioning typically consists of the following stages:
1 Checking the "Checklist before commissioning".
2 Performing an air purge.
3 Performing a test run for the system.
4 If necessary, performing a test run for one or more actuators.
5 If necessary, performing an underfloor heating screed dryout.

9.2 Precautions when commissioning

INFORMATION
During the first running period of the unit, the required power may be higher than stated on the nameplate of the unit. This phenomenon is caused by the compressor, that needs a continuous run time of 50 hours before reaching smooth operation and stable power consumption.
NOTICE
NEVER operate the unit without thermistors and/or pressure sensors/switches. Burning of the compressor might result.
NOTICE
Do NOT operate the unit until the refrigerant piping is complete (when operated this way, the compressor will break).
The following field wiring has been carried out according to this document and the applicable legislation:
▪ Between the local supply panel and the outdoor unit
▪ Between indoor unit and outdoor unit
▪ Between the local supply panel and the indoor unit
▪ Between the indoor unit and the valves (if applicable)
▪ Between the indoor unit and the room thermostat (if
applicable)
The system is properly earthed and the earth terminals are tightened.
The fuses or locally installed protection devices are installed according to this document, and have NOT been bypassed.
The power supply voltage matches the voltage on the identification label of the unit.
There are NO loose connections or damaged electrical components in the switchbox.
There are NO damaged components or squeezed pipes on the inside of the indoor and outdoor units.
Only if you use the optional backup heater:
Depending on the backup heater type, backup heater circuit breaker F1B (on the switch box of the backup heater) is turned ON.
The anti-legionella heater circuit breaker F2B (field supply) is turned ON.
There are NO refrigerant leaks.
The refrigerant pipes (gas and liquid) are thermally insulated.

Minimum required flow rate
12l/min

9.4.2 Air purge function

When commissioning and installing the unit, it is very important to remove all air in the water circuit. When the air purge function is running, the pump operates without actual operation of the unit and the removal of air in the water circuit will start.
NOTICE
Before starting the air purge, open the safety valve and check if the circuit is sufficiently filled with water. Only if water escapes the valve after opening it, you can start the air purge procedure.
There are 2 modes for purging air:
▪ Manual: the unit operates with a fixed pump speed and in a fixed
or custom position of the 3-way valve. The custom position of the 3-way valve is a more than helpful feature to remove all air from the water circuit in the space heating or the domestic hot water heating mode. Air purge must be performed for both the space heating and the domestic hot water circuit. The operation speed of the pump (slow or quick) can also be set.
▪ Automatic: the unit automatically changes the pump speed and
switches the position of the 3-way valve between the space heating and the domestic hot water heating mode.
Typical workflow
Purging the air from the system should consist of:
1 Performing a manual air purge
2 Performing an automatic air purge
INFORMATION
Start by performing a manual air purge. When almost all the air is removed, perform an automatic air purge. If necessary, repeat performing the automatic air purge until you are sure that all air is removed from the system. During air purge function, pump speed limitation [9‑0D] is NOT applicable.
The air purge function automatically stops after 30minutes.
To perform a manual air purge

DANGER: RISK OF BURNING

12.3 Solving problems based on symptoms

12.3.1 Symptom: The unit is NOT heating as expected

Possible causes Corrective action
The temperature setting is NOT correct
Check the temperature setting on the remote controller. Refer to the operation manual.
Possible causes Corrective action
The water flow is too low Check and make sure that:
▪ All shut-off valves of the water
circuit are completely open.
▪ The water filter is clean. Clean
if necessary.
▪ There is no air in the system.
Purge air if necessary. You can purge air manually (see
"To perform a manual air purge"on page76) or use the
automatic air purge function (see "To perform an automatic

▪ The water pressure is >1 bar.
▪ The expansion vessel is NOT
broken.
▪ The valve (if equipped) of the
water circuit towards the expansion vessel is open.
▪ The resistance in the water
circuit is NOT too high for the pump (see the ESP curve in the "Technical data" chapter).
If the problem persists after you have conducted all of the above checks, contact your dealer. In some cases, it is normal that the unit decides to use a low water flow.
The water volume in the installation is too low
Make sure that the water volume in the installation is above the minimum required value (see
"6.4.3To check the water volume and flow rate"on page26).

12.3.2 Symptom: The compressor does NOT start (space heating or domestic water heating)

Possible causes Corrective action
The unit must start up out of its operation range (the water temperature is too low) and the
system contains a backup heater
If the water temperature is too low, the unit uses the backup heater to reach the minimum water temperature first (15°C).
Check and make sure that:
▪ The power supply to the
backup heater is correctly wired.
▪ The backup heater thermal
protector is NOT activated.
▪ The backup heater contactors
are NOT broken.
If the problem persists after you have conducted all of the above checks, contact your dealer.

Possible causes Corrective action
The unit must start up out of its operation range (the water temperature is too low) and the
system does not contain a backup heater
The preferential kWh rate power supply settings and electrical connections do NOT match
The preferential kWh rate signal was sent by the electricity company
The unit is able to perform an automatic start‑up sequence: if the space heating circuit is too cold and defrost operation is required, the unit will try to perform defrost operation on the domestic hot water tank. If this is NOT possible because the domestic hot water tank is too cold, the unit will first preheat the tank.
If this start‑up sequence does NOT solve the problem, it may be required to manually start up with a small water volume. To do this, gradually open the heat emitters. As a result, the water temperature will gradually rise. Monitor the inlet water temperature ([8.4.8] in the menu structure) and make sure it does NOT drop below 15°C.
If the problem persists after you have conducted all of the above checks, contact your dealer.
This should match with the connections as explained in
"6.5Preparing electrical wiring"on page28 and "7.9.8To connect the main power supply"on page44.

Pump down – Refrigerant leakage. If you want to pump down the system, and there is a leak in the refrigerant circuit:
▪ Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function,
with which you can collect all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit. Possible consequence: Self-combustion and explosion of the compressor because of air going into the operating compressor.
▪ Use a separate recovery system so that the unit's
compressor does NOT have to operate.
13 Disposal
NOTICE
During pump down operation, stop the compressor before removing the refrigerant piping. If the compressor is still running and the stop valve is open during pump down, air will be sucked into the system. Compressor breakdown or damage to the system can result due to abnormal pressure in the refrigerant cycle.
Pump down operation will extract all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit.
1 Remove the valve lid from the liquid stop valve and the gas stop
valve.
2 Install a manifold on the gas stop valve.
3 Carry out the forced cooling operation. See "13.3 To start and
stop forced cooling"on page87.
4 After 5 to 10minutes (after only 1 or 2minutes in case of very
low ambient temperatures (<−10°C)), close the liquid stop valve with a hexagonal wrench.
5 Check on the manifold if the vacuum is reached.
6 After 2-3 minutes, close the gas stop valve and stop forced
cooling operation.
4 Set DIP switches SW5 and SW6 to OFF.
5 Set DIP switch SW2 to COOL.
6 Reattach the service PCB cover.
7 Turn the power back ON. Proceed with the next step within 3
minutes after restarting.
8 To start forced cooling, press the forced cooling operation
switch SW1.
9 To stop forced cooling, press the forced cooling operation
switch SW1 again.
10 Turn OFF the power, remove the switch box cover and service
PCB cover and set the DIP switches SW5, SW6 and SW2 back to their original position.
11 Reattach the service PCB cover and switch box cover and turn
the power back ON.
NOTICE
Take care that while running forced cooling operation, the water temperature remains higher than 5°C (see temperature read out of the indoor unit). You can achieve this, for example, by activating all fans of the fan coil units.
