Product Description
AEROTOP T
High Degree of Efficiency and Optimized Defrosting
Thanks to the correspondingly dimensioned air heat exchanger as well as the unique defrosting system, the AEROTOP T heat pump is especially efficient and a cost-saver. This heat pump always exceeds the required degree of efficiency (coefficient) of3.0 (COP at A2W35). Frost forms on the air exchanger, the evaporator, if the exterior temperature is less than 5°C. This results in ice formation and as a consequence reduces the heat exchange and with that the efficiency of the heat pump. The evaporator must be defrosted to remove this frost or ice. However, the defrosting process, carried out by the AEROTOP T by reversing the cooling circuit, is cumbersome since the heat pump does not yield any energy during the defrosting process but still uses electricity. This is frequently unnecessary since frost formation depends on the humidity in the air. Instead of the unnecessary defrosting at timed intervals, the AEROTOP T determines the correct time to defrost the unit using a progressive and well thought out logic with different per­formance parameters in the cooling circuit. Thanks to this procedure, the unit rarely requires any defrosting during the winter, if any at all, which is a great advantage.
Cooling with AEROTOP TR
The purpose of heat pumps is primarily to supply a building with heat. However, the technology can also be used to cool a building in the summer. This involves actively generating the cooling energy through a process reversal of the heat pump. In case of distributor systems specifically designed for cooling (fan coil or similar), the cooling capacity of the heat pump can be transferred optimally to the building. Cooling ceilings also have a good cooling capacity and comfort level. Floor heaters, however, are only partially suited and provide a limited cooling effect. Radiator heaters are unsuitable.
Cascade
Thanks to the new heat pump controller LOGON B WP61, it is possible to link and operate several heat generators of a system in a cascade arrangement. Cascades with up to 4 heat pumps, or a bivalent operation in combination with fossil heat generators are feasible. When using a cascade formation, the heat generators switch on or off depending on the current energy demand: If the currently running heat pump cannot satisfy the energy demand within a specific time, an additional heat pump/heat generator switches on.
Quiet Operation
Regardless whether installed indoors or outdoors, the air-water heat pump AEROTOP T is characterized by comparatively very low noise emissions. This is possible thanks to the high-performance fan, the very advantageous air routing, the noise--dampening insulation of the cladding, as well as the multi-dampened support of the cooling circuit. Additional noise insulation elements are available for most variants to reduce sound emissions further. AEROTOP T heat pumps are quiet and efficient. However, incorrectly integrating constructional components may result in undesired noise increases if the conditions are unfavorable.
Flexible and Space-Saving
Thanks to the clever utilization of the geometric properties of the radial fan, AEROTOP T heat pumps are among the most flexible, space saving air--water heat pumps. Especially noteworthy is the fact that the heat pump can be placed into the left or right corner of the utility room when not using the air ducts. The exhaust opening is easily moved on-site from the left to the right and even to the top without having to use any additional tools. The intake openi selected as desired without special accessories. AEROTOP T heat pumps are also suitable for outdoors installation when using the corresponding accessories.

Enclosure and Special Components
The enclosure consists of a frame that is completely free of thermal bridging, sound dampened, and specifically developed for use with heat pumps. The cladding and panels feature a high-grade insulation to sound-dampen and thermally insulate the unit. A pedestal or base is not required since the feet of the unit feature a vibration­dampening design. All panels can be detached for easy access to the internal elements of the unit and for control or configuration tasks.
The high-performance radial fan ensures the unit runs efficiently and quietly. The high performance cooling circuit is mounted on a vibration­dampened support and features a thermostatic expansion valve, filter dryer, inspection glass, high-pressure pressure controller with manual reset, and a low-pressure pressure controller with automatic reset function. The hermetic scroll compressor is mounted on a double vibration dampened s upport. The evaporator consists of a large-area finned tube heat exchanger made from aluminum and copper; the condenser consists of a welded chromium steel high performance plate heat exchanger. The environmentally friendly refrigerant R407C is used as the working medium. A flow monitor on the consumer side ensures trouble-free cooling for reversible heat pumps.

Heat Demand and Heat Capacity
The correct dimensioning of the air-water pump is a key task. The heat pump must meet the heat demand of the building. This demand increases as the exterior temperature drops but the heat capacity of the air-water heat pump decreases at the same time. The two charts illustrate this opposing trend.

Correct Dimensioning and Bivalence Point
This makes it clear that a monovalent system with an air-water heat pump as the only heat generator has a clearly overdimensioned heat pump during most of the year and especially during the intermediate season. Not only does this result in higher investments costs, the more frequent switching (on, off) of the heat pump also has a negative effect on the pump's efficiency and thereby increases operating costs (see chart A).
A somewhat smaller heat pump is selected for a bivalent system. This pump is dimensioned not for the exterior design temperature of the system but a slightly higher exterior temperature instead, the so-called bivalence point. If the exterior tempera­ture drops below the bivalence point, an electrical auxiliary heater is switched on, this then covers the missing heat output. The heat pump continues to have priority and, together with the additionally activated electrical heater, delivers the required heat (see chart B).
With a bivalence point, the heat pump is dimensioned exactly to meet the heat demand of the building. With lower exterior temperatures, the electrical auxiliary heater is activated; with higher exterior temperatures, the heat pump is still overdimensioned but to a lesser degree. An optimal annual degree of efficiency (coefficient) is achieved if the bivalence point is set to be slightly below the temperature most frequently occurring at the building location.

General Information
The rated throughput values for evaporator and condenser are minimum values. Set points and adjusted parameters may not fall below these values to ensure the indicated performance.
Pipes, tubes, and air ducts must be kept as short as possible and routed in such a way that pressure and heat loss are minimized. Incorrectly or badly installed or dimensioned pipes, tubes, or air ducts may damage the heat pump.
Area of Application
The following chart depicts the application area of the air-water heat pump AEROTOP T. Please consult the performance overview for more detailed operating specifications for various heat pump models. The temperature difference at the condenser must be between 7 and 10°C.

Cooling with Heat Pump Systems
Active Cooling
The cooling energy is produced actively using the heat pump to cool. The purpose of heat pumps is primarily to supply a building with heat. However, the technology can also be used to cool a building in the summer. This requires a process reversal during the cooling cycle. In this case, the heat emission side (condenser) becomes the heat absorption side (evaporator). During this phase, the heat pump functions like a refrigerator. The cooling and heating cycle cannot run at the same time. The use of a cool store is recommended in any case to prevent the heat pump from switching on and off and switching to water heating too often. Depending on the system concept, the heating storage can also be used as cooling storage. In case of distributor systems specifically designed for cooling (fan coil orsimilar), the cooling capacity of the heat pump can be transferred optimally to the building. Cooling ceilings also have a good cooling capacity and comfort level. Floor heaters, however, are only partially suited and provide a limited cooling effect. Radiator heaters are unsuitable.
Active Cooling Insulation
Water at a temperature less than 17°C is considered to be cold water. In the presence of cold water, the usual heating system insulations cannot be used. Suitable insulation, especially when using active cooling, is necessary. Insulation suitable for cold water is primarily used to avoid condensation but also to prevent cold water absorbing any of the heat, and also to protect against external mechanical stresses. Condensation must be avoided with a suitable insulation to prevent surface corrosions on the distributor system or mold in moist layers.
Insulation for cold water must be vapor-- proof and installed to all distributor system elements (pipes, tanks, pumps, cocks, valves, etc.) in a vapor-proof manner. Special insulating materials are commercially available in different designs (e.g. Armaflex, Tubolit). Standards SIA 380, DIN 4140 describe the insulation techniques. Please comply with the guidelines of relevant local professional associations (VSI, VDI, FESI).
General Cooling Information
1. The cooling cycle always must be monitored. If the room air is cooled unchecked, condensation water will emerge. This may damage the equipment or building components. The flow temperature in conjunction with the humidity (dew point contact temperature detector or room sensor for humidity and tempera ture) is best for monitoring.
2. A separate cooling circuit should be planned for the cooling mode. This circuit can be combined with a cooling ceiling or ventilation system, for example. Partial cooling via the floor heater or convectors is also possible if the need for cooling is limited.
3. Water flow must be ensured or cooling is not possible. When cooling via the heating surfaces, thermostatic individual controls must be used that can be switched to cooling mode. The valves are otherwise closed in summer and cooling is impossible.
Measures to Reduce the Building Cooling Capacity
The room cooling capacity is calculated based on the sum of the individual room demand. If the cooling demand exceeds the available cooling capacity, the following reduction measures may be used:
1. Direct sunlight through the window areas can be restricted through constructional measures (shutters, window shades, blinds).
2. The amount of sunlight received by each room frequently differs due to the different cardinal points.
is means that not the entire
Th cooling capacity must be available at the same time. This can reduce the max. simultaneous cooling demand.
3. Nighttime cooling of constructional elements can also lower the daytime cooling demand.
Calculating the Cooling Capacity
The cooling demand is calculated in accordance with national and local standards. E.G.: VDI 2078 : Real estate and buildings DIN 18599: Energetic assessment of nonresidential buildings (also includes air-conditioning or cooling) DIN EN ISO 13790 Energetic assessment of buildings (similar to DIN 18599) only across Europe DIN EN 255 SIA382/2: Room temperature requirements. SIA382/3: Determining the cooling requirement of building.
Cooling is differentiated by internal cooling capacity (e.g. thermal discharge of equipment, persons, lights) and external cooling capacity (sun exposure, heat from building components, and ventilation gains due to exterior air). The estimate acc. to HEA can be used for approximate calculations. However, the conditions listed below must be taken into account as well. The calculations of the implementation phase must be based on national and local standards.

Planning Notes
Cooling with Heat Pump Systems
Comfortable Room Temperature
A room is considered to be thermally comfortable when the room tempera­ture in the summer is below 28°C. This does not apply to air-conditioned rooms. Other factors are affecting thermal comfort ranges as well. Thermal comfort requirements are defined in standard DIN EN 15251, which provides a general guideline when implementing construction projects.
Recommendations for Surface Temperatures of Cooled Floors
When using a floor area for cooling, the comfort requirements and the weather data can be used to estimate the condensation risk so that the surface temperatures should generally be in a range of 20°C to 29°C. Special attention must be paid to floor surfaces that are used when barefoot, for example, in bathrooms, since the surface temperatures perceived as being comfortable may be significantly higher depending on the floor covering. Rooms with high humidity loads, especially bathrooms and kitchens, should not be cooled or only by considering the dew point threshold.

Cooling with Heat Pump Systems
Monitoring Function to Prevent Condensate Precipitation
To avoid condensation, the integrated Logon B WP61 controller features different monitor functions.
1. Flow Temperature Monitor
The temperature is set at the factory to 18°C. This temperature value ensures in almost all cases that condensation does not occur. A dew point monitor should always be used in addition.
2. Dew Point Monitor
This device is attached to critical points such as the floor heating distribution box. As soon as the connected dew point monitor detects condensation, it closes the contact and thereby switches cooling off.
3. Hygrostat
To prevent condensate due to a room humidity that is too high, a hygrostat can be connected, which then realizes a fixed flow temperature increase. As soon as the value set at the hygrostat is exceeded, the hygrostat closes the contact and this triggers the flow temperature set point increase set here.
High-End Solutions
4. Humidistat
To prevent condensate due to a room humidity that is too high, a humidistat can be connected, which then realizes a continuous flow set point increase. If the relative room humidity exceeds an adjustable value, the flow set point is increased steadily.
5. Room Sensor for Humidity and Temperature
The dew point temperature is determined based on the relative room humidity and the associated room air temperature. To prevent water condensation on surfaces, the flow temperature is min. limited by an adjustable value that is above the dew point temperature.

Compact Heat Pump Water Heat Exchanger Pressure Loss
The thermal mixing valve integrated into the compact heat pump routes a part of the flow water back to the accumulation tank at flow temperatures below +30°C. This way the storage tank is heated immediately and the energy depot is available for the defrosting of the evaporator. This upholding function ensures a continuous defrosting process and the system can be operated even when the heating system is cold.
Settings of the Integrated Thermal Mixing Valve of the Compact Heat Pumps
Important: Already provided with factory settings and NORMALLY does not require readjustment.
- AEROTOP T07C (Manually adjustable valve with scale): The factory setting of this valve is set to the minimum (scale at 0) = crank completely closed! (Important: The mark for making adjustments is located on the rear of the valve; use handheld mirror)
- AEROTOP T10-12C (Not manually adjustable, must use key to change settings): Correct adjustment is as follows: Open completely and then turn back 3.5 turns.

Checklist
Correct Installation of an Air-Water Heat Pump
AEROTOP T heat pumps are quiet and efficient. However, incorrectly integrating constructional components may result in undesired noise increases if the conditions are unfavorable. A careful assessment of the noise emissions is required when planning the installation of heat pump systems.
To be considered when installing an air-water heat pump
Each reflecting surface doubles the noise (acoustic power). One wall increases this value by +3dB, one corner by +6dB.
Rooms with reverberant or sound-reflecting floor coverings and walls increase the noise level.
Be careful with dropping the washing
Adherence with the min. clearances reduces noise reflection and air short-circuits and improves airflow near the fan.
Construction measures can reduce noise, plants cannot.
Noise reduction measures considered early on in the development process result in the fewest additional costs. Subsequent measures usually are extremely expensive and cumbersome to implement. [Heat Pump Manual, Federal Energy Agency, Switzerland] The following points apply to the interior and exterior installation of air-water heat pumps.
one corner by +6dB. Avoid solid-borne noise transmission by avoiding reflecting surfaces. Never route air intake or outlet into closed or partially closed spaces such as a corner, foyer, entrance area, covered patio, etc.
Avoid rooms with reverberant or sound-reflecting floor coverings and walls. When installing the heat pump in a room with reverberant or sound-reflecting floor coverings and walls, reflections may increase the sound level. Cover one or two walls with noise-absorbing material if this is the case.
Dropping the washing from lived-in rooms to the place of installation of the heat pump can lead to noise transmission when unfavourably positioned.
Make sure the min. distances and clearances to the air intake and outlet as well as the min. size of the light wells are applied. Avoid walls or flow barriers around the circumference of the heat pump to ensure air can reach the fan evenly. Less pressure losses = low peripheral speed = reduction of the fan noise.
Use constructional measures to interrupt the flow of noise from the heat pump (direct noise propagation). Use solid walls, fences, palisades, etc. to reduce noise levels. Plants, however, do not reduce noise.
Consider different noise sensitivity levels.
Sound absorbing materials reduce noise.
Separation from the structure minimizes structure-borne sounds.
Correct installation of pedestal or base reduces structure-borne sounds.
Correct installation of the ducts reduces air and structure-borne noise transference.
Avoid air short-circuits and airflow barriers.
Always comply with all rules, regulations, and applicable laws.
Avoid placing the heat pump where it may cause problems due to its noise emission (bedrooms, living rooms, neighbors, etc.). Position heat pumps in areas where noise is less likely to be an annoyance. If installed indoors, do not install underneath or next to living or sleeping quarters.
Additional sound absorbing materials or measures must be planned for and used in cases where extreme noise reductions are desired or when installing model Forever GREEN 20C or later. Use only original accessories and spare parts. in extreme cases, it may be advisable to consult a noise expert.
Always use flexible connections throughout: Flexible hoses and tubes for heat distribution, flexible electrical connections, sound isolation of the air ducts by using elastic sleeves or Compriband products.
The base or ground must be level or made level and able to support the load of the equipment. Use the adjustable feet of the heat pump to level the equipment after installation.
All wall openings and ducts must be equipped with the corresponding noise-absorbing materials. Comply with the specified cross-sections and dimensions.
Air intakes and outlets cannot be installed next to each other without using a separating wall. Avoid any airflow obstacles that favor an air short-circuit.
