3 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT
3.1THE SERIES
HiWarm is a residential air-water multifunction heat
pump that absorbs cold or heat from the external air and
simultaneously, with no combustion or ame, warms or
cools the home and autonomously produces domestic hot
water, prioritised or total heat recovery in cooling mode.
The product is available in three sizes, classi ed according to
cooling capacity in nominal conditions, i.e. water produced
at 12 / 7°C with the external air at 35°C. The following
features are common in all three:
- Split unit with compressor mounted in the indoor
unit, thereby reducing the external noise emission and
allowing for a light outdoor unit, which can be positioned
at a height with simple brackets.
- Outdoor unit for indoor use, ductable, compact with backward-curved blade fans activated by an EC synchronous
permanent magnets motor, designed for attics.
- Expansion device: EEV (electronic expansion valve) to bene t from the possibility of generating thermodynamic cycles
under reduced pressure changes with signi cant COP advantages.
- Built-in pump control on system side and DHW side: both pumps are managed directly by the unit.
Three models can be chosen from, classi ed according to the maximum cooling capacity they can produce:
012022033
The dimensions of the indoor unit can be divided in two frame sizes, for each model:

HIWARM
Double water circuit:
- Air conditioning circuit with reversible cooling circuit side and variable set-point between min/max with potential-free
contact or with 0-10V or 4-20 mA signal.
- Total heat recovery (for simultaneous cooling) or in any case prioritised DHW circuit. This circuit is separate and does
not need long heating/cooling stages of inertial storage, like similar products on the market, which jeopardise energy
eciency especially during summer operation.
The basic selection when developing the range of multifunction units consists in using the following:
- Advanced electronic control allows load partialisation requirements to be adequately met.
For optimal partial load operation, which is ever more an object of evaluation and a discriminating factor in the technical
choice of heating technicians.
The structure of the HiWarm units has the following characteristics:
- Indoor unit:
side panelling in galvanised sheet metal painted with polyester epoxy powders and polymerised in the oven at 180°C and
a front cover that incorporates the Display, on two basic levels (LCD) and a 10” Graphic Touch Screen Windows CE. The unit
is fully panelled but can be accessed on 3 sides since the panels can be easily removed, thereby simplifying maintenance
and/or inspections. All routine maintenance is performed from the front of the unit.
- Outdoor unit:
side panelling in galvanised sheet metal painted with polyester powders and polymerised in the oven at 180°C. The unit is
totally faired and panelled and is available in RAL9002 (Grey White).
6-pole axial fans with blades having a high degree of overlapping, combined with asynchronous motors with an external
rotor (or synchronous with permanent magnets) and continuous modulation of the rotation speed.
- Remote unit for indoor installation (attic):

HIWARM
Scroll or Twin-Rotary R410A Compressors:
Processing optimisation together with a careful choice
of the intrinsic volumetric compression ratio (ICR) allows
for a signicant improvement in isentropic compression
performance and a consequent reduction in energy loss
during the process. Low viscosity oils can be used thanks to
the scroll and twin rotary compressor, which greatly reduce
evaporator thermal resistance, compared to high viscosity
oils, with an increase of over 1.5°C in the evaporation
temperature (over 5.5% in EER), with respect to alternative
solutions.
Hermetic orbiting Scroll compressors (HiWarm22 and
HiWarm33) or Twin Rotary compressors (HiWarm12) are complete with motor protection against over temperature,
overcurrents and excessive gas ow temperatures. Mounted on anti-vibration dampers, complete with oil charge and
inserted in a soundproof compartment with sound-absorbing material. Also complete with an automatically activated oil
heater to prevent the oil from being diluted by the refrigerant when the compressor stops.
The compressors have a brushless synchronous motor with permanent magnets, piloted by a driver with a trapezoidal wave
signal at a speed rate between 30 (20) and 120 Hz [BLDC Technology “Brush Less Direct Current”].
Inverter:
A static converter of electrical energy, that is a rectier and
an AC-DC AC converter. The function of the inverter is to
control the motor power supply during an actuation. From a
more general aspect, the inverters allow the amplitude and/
or frequency of the motor supply voltage to be changed.
It is required when brushless synchronous motors with
permanent magnets (BLDC) are used, in order to guarantee
motor operation.
The inverter compressor is driven with proportional
regulation and proportional plus integral regulation on the
set-point in any mode:
If a simultaneous request is made by the utility - cooling the
room and DHW for the system - the default set-point speed is determined by the minimum speed of the two. After the
initial start-up phase, the inverter modulates the performance of the motor in real time according to the demand of the
application, thereby supplying only the real power requested. Consequently, the frequency varies from a minimum value of
20 (30) [Hz] to a maximum of 120 [Hz] depending on the utility demand. The maximum acceleration is dened by the torque
limits that can be supplied as well as the need to minimise the amount of oil entrained into the transients and is a parameter
that cannot be modied.

R410A refrigerant uid:
HFC R410A is distinguished by very
favourable thermal conductivity of the
liquid and negligible Glide, even if this results
in a higher GWP than other refrigerants
(Global Warming Potential GWP= 1975 kg
), which lead to signi cantly enhanced
CO

evaporation performance together
absorbed from the environment
with improved condenser performance.

phot
The greater operating pressures and a
favourable pressure curve (temperature)
allow more compact thermal exchange
geometries to be used, which present a
100% useable kW
smaller internal volume compared to the
same exchange surface, and therefore
require less refrigerant charge: these factors lead to a reduction of the overall GWP of the unit compared to products with
other types of ecological refrigerants of the HFC family.
The GWP of R410A is 1,975 kg CO
against the 1,177 of R407C and 1,410 of R134a. This disadvantage is made up for with the
2
greater EER and even better ESEER. The GWP is greater than other HFC uids, but the TEWI (total equivalent warming impact)
is much less, thanks to the high e ciency and reduced refrigerant charge.
With an average increase of 8% in the surface, the internal volume of the coils is 23% less. The average density is in turn lower
and therefore the R410A charge is approximately 27% less than that of R407C units of the same size.
TEWI: Total Equivalent Warming Impact:
This expresses the mass of CO
that produces the same overall e ect as the
2
chiller during its operational life. The main feature of this parameter is based on
the e ects of using a refrigerant gas, which do not only derive from the possible
accidental emission into the atmosphere, but also the e ect on global warming
generated by the carbon dioxide emitted for energy to be produced to operate
the chiller in question. The TEWI is de ned as the sum of the direct and indirect
e ect:
= amount of carbon dioxide emitted to produce one kWh of
CO2
electrical energy, and which depends on how it is generated.
= refrigerant charge.
tN
ref
In order to assess the TEWI, it is therefore necessary to estimate the e ciency of the chillers from which the energy
consumption, their life, the type of energy source from which it is drawn and the mass of refrigerant contained depend.
Besides the control of emissions into the atmosphere and the choice of environment-compatible refrigerants, this type
of approach also focuses on improving the overall e ciency of the chiller, which can play an important role on the actual
impact that a uid has on global warming, depending on the applications.

AISI 316 Stainless Steel Plate Heat Exchangers:
The thorough study of internal corrugation maximizes
turbulence (heat exchange coecient), thereby minimising
the possibility of fouling. In line with the powers involved,
it is always recommended to choose the maximum thermal
length in order to have the maximum benets possible from
the countercurrent ows.
Electronic expansion valve (EEV):
Installed as per standard on all HiWarm units. If congured
correctly and controlled properly by the software, this
device helps the cooling circuit be highly ecient and this
will thereby reduce the power absorbed by the system The
shutter in the central part of the valve slides vertically with
an ample stroke, thereby allowing a vast variation in the
opening of the uid passage orice.
This valve allows for reduced energy consumption of the
compressor.
4-way cycle inversion valve:
Thanks to the principles of Thermodynamics, it is a known
fact that heat exchange is more ecient when this occurs in
countercurrent rather than cocurrent.
Most of the reversible units congured as cocurrent after
switching from Cooling mode to Heating mode, with a
consequent reduction in thermodynamic performance.
By inserting a 4-way valve on the utility water circuit (indoor
unit) the water ow direction can be inverted on the heat
exchanger according to the inversion of the refrigerant ow,
thereby maintaining the countercurrent. Of course, the
water direction to/from the system does not change.
The utility side water connections keep the same IN/OUT
conguration and the user does not notice any change.
N.B.: the above-mentioned selection always considers a
heat exchange in countercurrent mode.

Pumps:
Energy class A, electronically-controlled, maintenance-free,
high eciency, wet rotor circulation pumps are used with
EC motors. The pump body is made of grey cast iron with
a cataphoresis KTL nish, which is an excellent protection
against corrosion. The thermal insulation is made of
polypropylene, the shaft is made of stainless steel, the
bearings are made of metal-impregnated carbon, and the
impeller with a three-dimensional coil is made of synthetic
material with a carbon bre hermetic insulation coating.
Solenoid valves:
Solenoid valves are widely used to control the ow of hot/
cold liquids with on/o-type utilities. The principle of
operation consists of an electrical current being applied to
a coil that creates a magnetic eld. This is transformed into
mechanical energy, which opens or closes the valve. The
principle of operation is very reliable, inexpensive and widely
used for each type of application with ON/OFF utilities.
Liquid receiver:
The unit is modulating with variable ows and possible
operating conditions that may dier. The optimal refrigerant
charge depends on the volumes of the heat exchangers and
the points mentioned and can therefore vary signicantly
in the various operating modes. The liquid receiver is
therefore important to restore equilibrium, especially during
transitions.
Liquid separator:
The liquid separator is placed on the compressor intake line
and has the function of containing the excess refrigerant
that has not evaporated and prevent it from returning to
the compressor in its liquid state, thereby preventing any
damage this could cause.

User interface:
The user interface, PGD1, consists of an LCD display (8 rows x

All the program operations can be run, the conditions of
the operating unit can be displayed at any time and the

3.3SYNCHRONOUS MOTORS
Our compressors and hydraulic pumps use BLDC synchronous
electric motors (Brushless Direct Current). Synchronous
motors are distinguished by a constant of rotation regardless
of the load (or torque) but related to the denite frequency
of the inverter.
The Brushless synchronous motor has no brushes as the
power is only sent to the stator and not directly to the rotor,
therefore, sliding electrical contacts are not required. Over 20
Hz, the mP on board controls a feedback signal (BEFM Back
Electro Motive Force) that can certify the rotor's synchronous
rotation with a magnetic eld and implements any torque
corrections to restore/maintain synchronism and therefore
maximum eciency.
- The BLDC does not require induction in the stator windings
(there already is a permanent magnet in the rotor) =>
There are no relative losses.
- The BLDC has no rotor currents (due to the stator induction
of the asynchronous motors) => No rotor loss.
- The BLDC has no sliding contacts => No maintenance. The
position of the rotor is detected by measuring the BEFM
(back electro motive force), caused by the rotor during
the non-energised phase (when one of the three passage
phases is zero): there are no Hall eect sensors in the motor
due to their unreliability at high speed and temperature
and therefore the motor is also called “sensorless”.

3.4MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE OUTDOOR UNIT
The outdoor unit has the same components in all three sizes.
The size of the nned coil changes together with the number
of fans that increase by one unit as the size increases (two
fans for the 012, three for the 022 and four for the 033).
Finned pack heat exchangers:
The nned pack heat exchangers allow for the maximum
front surface in relation to the footprint of the unit. The
wide front surfaces reduce the risk of fouling and thanks to
the reduced through-speed the air-side pressure drops are
reduced, which bene ts the air ow rate (e ciency) and the
emitted sound power of the fans. Heat exchange between
the refrigerant and air takes place thanks to a number of 25 x
21.65 mm expanded pipes (8 mm diameter), in an automatic
and controlled process, in 0.10 mm thick aluminium
ns. Expansion is a fey factor and important process as it
determines the pipe/ n contact resistance and it is often
ignored in the case of high heat exchange e ciencies.
FINNED PACK
HEAT EXCHANGERS
FANS
Fans:
6-pole fans are used in the outdoor remote unit (3 pole pairs ),
with plastic blades having a high degree of overlapping (450
mm), combined with single-phase asynchronous motors or
alternatively, synchronous with EC permanent magnets.
With regards to the remote unit for indoor use, enhanced
silence is obtained by using centrifugal fans with backwardcurved blades with a strong degree of reaction combined
with EC brushless motors for continuous and e cient
modulation: the air ow rate and therefore the absorbed
power and noise emitted are always adapted to the actual
conditions of use in terms of pressure drops of the channels
and degree of capacity control of the unit.

3.6PIPING AND LOAD DESIGN CRITERIA
All the copper pipes are made according to our specications for the construction process to be fully controlled and implicitly
improve the quality of our products. Each pipeline complies with the requirements of Directive 97/23PED and is veried by
FEM code at the most stressed 180° bending point and at the maximum pressure allowed by the safety components while
also considering adequate safety coecients.
The tables below provide guidelines regarding the pipes to use to connect the indoor and the outdoor units according to the
dierent sizes of the HiWarm and the length of the line:
Use pipes marked in compliance with standard UNI 12735.
The connection gas/liquid lines between the indoor and outdoor units must be vacuumed
before opening the valves of the indoor unit. The absence of air and moisture in the pipes
is important in order to guarantee proper operation and durability of the unit. Qualied
personnel must install the pipes and perform the installation.

Page 31
The unit is pre-charged with R410A before leaving the factory, however, the charge must be veried during the start-up
phase.
WARNING
Since R410A is a binary blend of R32 and R125, it is advisable to charge with refrigerant in the liquid
phase to ensure the correct percentage of the 2 components.
Charge through the charging inlet provided between the expansion valve and evaporator inlet.
ATTENTION
WARNING
A unit that was originally charged with R410A in the factory cannot be charged with other
refrigerants.
It is recommended to read the safety data sheet (MSDS) before using R-410A (see Chapter 12).
TOXICITY: R-410A can be safely used in all applications for which it is intended, according to
the processed data of the “Program for Alternative Fluorocarbon Toxicity Testing” (PAFT1).
LEAKS: the area must be immediately evacuated if there is a constant leak of R-410A gas.
The gases concentrate near the oor, thereby restricting the availability of oxygen. Once
evacuated, the area must be ventilated with fans or blowers in order to circulate the air at
oor level.
FLAMMABILITY: according to the 34 ASHRAE Standard, R-410A is classied in safety group
A1, i.e. it is not ammable at 1 atm of pressure (101.3 kPa) and 18°C.
CATEGORY: the refrigerant is a non hazardous category II uid.
3.7OPERATING LIMITS
The diagrams below indicate the operating limits of the units and the ow temperature that the unit can supply according
to the outdoor temperature can be obtained.
The example in the graph below shows that the unit can obtain a ow temperature of 35°C up to a maximum of 60°C with
an outdoor temperature of 10°C.
WARNING
All the temperatures on the perimeter of the operating areas can only be reached as transients
and if the unit runs beyond these limits for a prolonged time, the software on board will
implement corrective actions to restore the unit within the operating limits.

Power supply voltage: +/- 10% compared to the voltage on the plate.
Maximum storage Temp of the indoor unit +42°C
Minimum storage Temp -20°C (limit determined by on board electronics)
(*) This value can only be reached during storage and determines the saturation pressure of 30 bar-r of the refrigerant on the
low pressure side of the circuit, which actually denes the limits.
Water ow to evaporator
The nominal ow rate refers to a temperature dierential of 5°C between inlet and outlet water, in relation to the cooling
capacity provided at the nominal water temperatures (12/7°C).
The maximum ow rate allowed is that associated with a temperature dierential of 3°C. higher ow rates cause high
pressure drops.
The minimum ow rate allowed is that associated with a temperature dierential of 8°C. lower ow rates could cause
excessively low evaporation temperatures, which could trigger the safety devices and stop the unit, or cause incorrect
distribution and risk of heat transfer with non-turbulent or not fully turbulent motion conditions.

5 - CONNECTIONS
5.1WATER CONNECTIONS
5.1.1General guidelines for the water connections
It is mandatory to follow the requirements below when preparing to set up the water circuit for the evaporator and in any
case national or local Standards must be complied with (refer to the diagrams attached to this document). Connect the
pipes to the chiller using exible couplings to prevent the transmission of vibrations and compensate for thermal
expansion. Refer to the technical data table for the type and dimensions of the hydraulic connections.
It is recommended to install the following components on the piping:
- temperature and pressure indicators for routine maintenance and inspections of the unit. Pressure control on the water
side allows the correct functionality of the expansion tank to be veried and any water leaks in the system to be detected
in advance;
- sumps on inlet and outlet piping for temperature detection, for a direct view of operating temperatures. They can also be
viewed on the display on board the unit (if pCO),
- shut-o valves (gate valves) to isolate the unit from the water circuit for maintenance purposes;
- metal net lter (inlet pipe) with a mesh that does not exceed 1 mm, to protect the heat exchanger from slag or
impurities inside the pipes. This requirement is especially important for commissioning;
- air vent valves, placed on the higher parts of the water circuit to bleed the air. The internal pipes of the unit are tted with
manual air vent valves to bleed the unit: this operation is to be performed when the unit is disconnected from the power supply;
- a drain cock and where necessary, a drain tank, to empty the system for maintenance purposes or seasonal breaks;
- It is recommended to install a decoupling heat exchanger in process applications to prevent fouling in the heat exchangers,
which is likely to occur.
WARNING
Otherwise, the evaporator would be exposed to the risk of freezing since the anti-freeze thermostat would not be able to
perform its function and moreover, the countercurrent circulation would not be activated in the cooling mode, resulting in
additional risk of malfunction. This position does not enable consent by the water ow control device.
The dimensions and position of the water connections are provided in the dimensional tables and overview drawings.
WARNING
ATTENTION
ATTENTION
It is extremely important that the water inlet corresponds with the connection marked with
the writing “Water Inlet”.
The hydraulic circuit must be implemented in a way that guarantees a constant nominal ow
rate of water (+/- 15%) to the evaporator in every operating condition.
Never perform hydraulic connection operations with open ames near or inside the unit.
Make sure the intake pressure of the pump is always greater than 0.5 bar while the pump is
operating: this helps reduce the risk of cavitation.
All copying, even partial, of this manual is strictly forbiddenRG66007967 - Rev 02
35
Page 36
HIWARM
It is extremely important that the installer follows and veri es the following procedure step by step in order to prevent the
risk of tank implosion or pump cavitation:
- Drain the expansion tank in the system until the pressure reaches 0.5 bar.
- Fill the system and pressurise it to approximately + 1 bar in pump suction (pump stopped).
- Bleed the system.
- Check the pump suction pressure (approximately 1 bar) and start-up the system.
- Stop the pump after 15-30 minutes and repeat the procedure from step 3 until no more noise is heard due to air in the
system.
DRAINING THE SYSTEM
Drain outlets must always be set-up in the lower parts of the system. Drain the unit from the connections on the water pipes
beneath the pumps.
5.1.2Technical data of the hydraulic pumps
Two pumps are used in HiWarm: one for the utility, for heating or cooling, and one for domestic hot water. The relative pump
is activated according to the request.
The pumps installed are high-e ciency type with an inverter driven synchronous motor and fall under energy class A.
Common synchronous motor pumps have a characteristic curve that changes according to the pressure drops that occur.
The operating speed and therefore the ow rate are set by the system.
Asynchronous motor pumps have a characteristic curve that is controlled by the unit control microprocessor. The operating
logic can be at constant ow rate, constant head or according to the temperature in the heat exchanger.
Nominal useful head of the hydraulic pumps in cooling conditions: water 12/7°C and air 35°C. Inverter driven pumps can run
within the limited range over the characteristic range of the pump.

5.2ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The electric connections must be set up by qualied sta. All connections must comply with the regulations enforced in the
country of installation. A suitable cutting-o device must be set up upstream of the electrical supply for the internal unit,
taking into consideration the electrical absorptions indicated in this manual and on the data plate. The user is also reminded
that the power supply to the external unit is supplied by the internal unit. The connection must be set up according to the
directions provided by the electrical diagram.
The protection to be installed up stream and therefore the size of the power supply cables depend on the electrical absorption
of the machine.
The following table indicates the maximum absorptions of the internal unit + external unit and are divided based on the type
of fan unit. Lastly, it is possible to nd the minimum recommended protection:
The minimum indicated protection can be provided using gG type fuses or C curve magneto
thermal automatic switches.
For the correct sizing of the cable it is necessary to take into account (standard reference IEC EN60204-1):
1 The selected upstream protection.
2 Installation conditions.
3 Type of cable.
4 Maximum cable length.
The following table provides an example of sizing in the following hypothetical situations:
1 Maximum ambient temperature of 40°C.
2 Placement inside empty pipes.
3 PVC cable with a maximum operating temperature of 70°C.

6 - MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL
The software on board the unit is very complex and allows HiWarm operation to be fully controlled. For this reason, many
parameters and settings must be managed by the manufacturer in order to make sure the unit runs smoothly according to
the set ow temperatures. Reference is made to functions, on the following pages, which may only be available if certain
contacts or external connections are used and adequately connected. Information regarding the wiring can be found in the
wiring diagram attached to the unit documentation.
6.1GWEB OPERATION
Ethernet GWeb with GWeb supervision software is
integrated in the HiWarm unit.
The WEB board allows the controller on board the unit to
connect with the RJ45 Ethernet network at 10 Mbps. The
operating system used is Linux 2.4.21.
It is installed directly on the serial port of the advanced
controller and a static or dynamic (DHCP) IP address is used.
GWeb supervision software allows for the following:
- viewing the unit status;
- viewing the active alarms and alarm history;
- recording data with 10 variables that can be set;
- downloading all the data records from a web browser or via FTP;
- editing the main parameters;
- in case of an alarm, sending an e-mail to 5 dierent recipients.
GWeb also allows for monitoring to be performed via the following protocols:
- with SNMP v1 & v2c protocol;
- with BACnet Ethernet or BACnet/IP protocol.
The parameters relative to SNMP and BACnet protocol management are set from the Administrator conguration pages, as
shown in the gure:
The current on board control functions are:
- control of the various operating parameters by means of
a keypad set-up on the electric panel;
- compressor activation/deactivation to maintain the
chiller inlet temperature set-point;
- controlling the maximum number of compressor start-ups;
- serial output management (optional);
- interfacing via WEB with the Webgate option through a simple connection and any internet browser;
- summer/winter changeover and on/o control via potential-free contact or on board the unit;
- set points can be set on board the unit or via external analogue contacts only for 0-5V utility;
- electrical load management and automatic modulation of the unit to prevent exceeding any power limits.

6.2ELECTRICAL LOAD MANAGEMENT FUNCTION
This function allows the electrical loads to be managed and
priorities to be assigned to our HiWarm system or other
utilities, such as appliances.
This function requires a current transformer (CT) set
upstream the mains meter. This CT must be of good quality
(class I) and the selected ratio must guarantee a constant
amperometric signal to the secondary within the 0.5 ÷ 5A
range.
Its power must be equal to or greater than 5VA to guarantee
regulation precision.
If it is installed away from the regulator, the dissipated power
from the connection wires (approx. 0.2 VA per metre on
two-wire lines with a 2.5 mm
normal amperometric consumption (approx. 2 VA) and that
of any instruments connected in the amperometric circuit.

section) must be added to the

Other utilities
(e.g. appliances)
The wires used for the CT secondary connection must have a minimum section of 2.5 mm
2
.
The CT connection must not be protected by a fuse or interrupted by an isolator switch.
The user must insert the current transformer (CT) on the system line that is to be corrected, upstream the network loads and
the branch point of the power supply for the power factor correction panel: the installed CT must measure all the absorbed
currents of the system, inductive (motors or similar) as well as capacitive (condensers). Any condensers for the xed power
factor correction must be installed downstream the CT, unless they are used for the power factor correction of the system
power supply transformer.
Professionally qualied personnel may carry out the installation according to the instructions. The installer must connect
the wires to the transformer in the correct direction for the CT to function correctly (as indicated in the structure of the CT).
Otherwise, they will be connected incorrectly and result in poor performance or possibly null.
An incorrect installation can harm persons or damage objects for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable.
The CT is then connected to the microprocessor of the HiWarm, which controls the utility energy absorption, according to
the power available that reaches it from the CT, with a possible derating of the HiWarm or turning o the other utilities, if
required.
By doing so, the management and distribution of the absorbed current over time can be understood and the saved data are
archived and can be downloaded via a serial port.

8 - OPTIONAL STORAGE TANKS
HiWarm can heat technical water for domestic hot water production. Domestic hot water production always requires a water
storage tank (preferably technical) on the circuit used for this function. The storage tank is used to meet demand peaks
without installing thermal powers that are too high. This leads to regular and continuous system operation and therefore
better thermal performance. The water heated by the unit is stored inside the tank and the energy stored this way allows the
tank to be used with an instantaneous preparer. The manufacturer proposes this solution as it prevents unnecessary antilegionella cycles and allows for good thermal eciency by heating the water with a thermal approach in countercurrent
mode. An electric resistance can also be combined.

10 - DECOMMISSIONING THE UNIT
When the unit has reached the end of its working life and must be removed and replaced, a number of measures must be
followed:
- the refrigerant gas it contains must be collected by qualied personnel and sent to a waste collection facility;
- the compressor lubricating oil must also be collected and sent to a waste collection facility;
- if the framework and components cannot be reused, they must be separated and scrapped according to the type of
material: this applies especially for the considerable quantities of copper and aluminium present in the unit.
This will facilitate the work carried out in the waste collection, disposal and recycling facilities and minimise the environmental
impact of such processes.
ATTENTION
Please note it is mandatory to register the loading and unloading of special and toxic-harmful waste.
Special and toxic-harmful waste must be collected by authorised companies.
Special and toxic-harmful waste must be disposed of in compliance with the applicable laws in the user's country.
Dismantle the unit according to the requirements imposed by law in force in the user's country. Before demolishing the unit,
ask the relative Authority to perform an inspection and issue a report.
Lastly, scrap the unit in compliance with the applicable laws in the user's country.
WARNING
- If the unit or part of it has been put out of service, any parts that are likely to pose a risk
must be protected.
- Remember that whenever a part is replaced and the used part must be disposed of
separately, always refer to the relative laws in force.
Qualied personnel must dismantle and demolish the unit.
10.1ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The law [EC 2037/00] that regulates the use of stratospheric ozone depleting substances and greenhouse gases bans disposal
of refrigerant gases in the environment and requires whoever is in their possession to collect them and, at the end of their
useful life, return them to the dealer or take them to a suitable waste collection facility.
The HFC R410A refrigerant is not harmful to the ozone layer but is included among the greenhouse eect substances and
must therefore be handled in compliance with the above-mentioned requirements.
ATTENTION
Therefore, special care should be taken when carrying out maintenance work to minimise
refrigerant leaks.
