Operating Guide Termix Compact 28 VVX-FI
District heating substation for indirect heating and instantaneous domestic hot water.
Space heating and domestic hot water (DHW)
The Termix Compact 28 VVX-FI is a complete unit for indirect space heating and domestic hot water for district heating in large buildings such as sports centres, schools, blocks of flats etc.
It can be used for connection to indirect district heating in places where the district heating plant requires a hydraulic break. It is also suitable for conversion to district heating when the secondary heating system is unsuitable to being connected to direct district heating or when a particularly effective security against leakage in the heating system is required.
Efficient heat exchanger
The substation is fitted with an efficient plate heat exchanger, which ensures the most favourable heat extraction and achieves optimum comfort and operating economy.
Electronic regulation
The Termix Compact 28 VVX-FI is built with a plate heat exchanger for instantaneous domestic hot water production and heat exchanger for space heating. Each circuit is also supplied with its own flow controller.
This allows the greatest degree of individual control, thus preventing oscillation at different loads. The electronic controller is factory pre-set. Electrical components are pre-wired, and the unit is equipped with a plug for 230 V a.c.
It is recommended that balancing valves are installed in the building’s risers in the heat supply and on the heating system’s return line immediately before the unit.
Minimal heat loss
Complete insulation of the unit ensures minimal heat loss.
Easy installation
The unit consists of two modules, one for space heating and one for domestic hot water production, which is easily assembled into one single module. This modular design makes work during installation significantly easier, as the weight is split between two modules during handling.
Flexible solution
Pipe connection can be made from either the top or bottom, which makes this solution highly flexible. At the same time, both space and time are saved when installing.
Reliable and easy to install
Termix Compact 28 VVX-FI is operationally reliable. A quality product manufactured in Denmark which is easy to install and quickly commissioned.

Operating Guide Termix Compact 28 VVX-FI
The following instructions refer to the standard design of substation. Special versions of substations are available on request.
This operating manual should be read carefully before installation and start-up of the substation. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage or faults that result from non-compliance with the operating manual. Please read and follow all the instructions carefully to prevent accidents, injury and damage to property. Assembly, start-up and maintenance work must be performed by qualified and authorized personnel only.
Please comply with the instructions issued by the system manufacturer or system operator.
Corrosion protection
All pipes and components are made of stainless steel and brass. The maximum chloride compounds of the flow medium should not be higher than 150 mg/l.
The risk of equipment corrosion increases considerably if the recommended level of permissible chloride compounds is exceeded.
Energy source
The substation is designed for district heating as the primary source of energy. However, also other energy sources can be used where the operating conditions allow it and always are comparable to district heating.
Application
The substation is designed to be connected to the house installation in a frost-free room, where the temperature does not exceed 50 °C and the humidity does not exceed 60%. Do not cover or wall up the substation or in any other way block the entrance to the station.
Choice of material
Choice of materials always in compliance with local legislation.
Safety valve(s)
We recommend mounting of safety valve(s), however, always in compliance with local regulations.
Connection
The substation must be equipped with features that ensure that the substation can be separated from all energy sources (also power supply).
Emergency
In case of danger or accidents - fire, leaks or other dangerous circumstances - interrupt all energy sources to the station if possible, and seek expert help.
In case of discoloured or bad-smelling domestic hot water, close all shut-off valves on the substation, inform the operating personnel and call for expert help immediately.
REACH
All Danfoss A/S products fulfill the requirements in REACH. One of the obligations in REACH is to inform customers about presence of Candidate list substances if any, we hereby inform you about one substance on the candidate list: The product
contains brass parts which contains lead (CAS no: 7439-92-1) in a concentration above 0.1% w/w.
Storage
Any storage of the substation which may be necessary prior to installation should be in conditions which are dry and heated.
Authorized personnel only
Assembly, start-up and maintenance work must be performed by qualified and authorized personnel only.
Please observe instructions carefully
To avoid injury to persons and damage to the device, it is absolutely necessary to read and observe these instructions carefully.
Warning of high pressure and temperature
Be aware of the installation’s permissible system pressure and temperature.
The maximum temperature of the flow medium in the substation is 110 °C.
The maximum operating pressure of the substation is 16 bar.
The risk of persons being injured and equipment damaged increases considerably if the recommended permissible operating parameters are exceeded.
The substation installation must be equipped with safety valves, however, always in accordance with local regulations.
Warning of hot surface
The substation has got hot surfaces, which can cause skin burns. Please be extremely cautious in close proximity to the substation.
Power failure can result in the motor valves being stuck in open position. The surfaces of the substation can get hot, which can cause skin burns. The ball valves on district heating supply and return should be closed.
Warning of transport damage
Before substation installation, please make sure that the substation has not been damaged during transport.
IMPORTANT - Tightening of connections
Due to vibrations during transport all flange connections, screw joints and electrical clamp and screw connections must be checked and tightened before water is added to the system. After water has been added to the system and the system has been put into operation, re-tighten ALL connections.

Installation must be in compliance with local standards and regulations.
District heating (DH) - In the following sections, DH refers to the heat source which supplies the substations.
