Unit description
In cooling mode the unit (chilled
water outlet) extracts the heat
from the interior room to be
cooled into the fin register
and passes it on to the cold
operating medium - water
or a mix of water and glycol within a closed medium cycle.
As a result of the heat exchange,
the medium heats up
and the emergent air cools
the room down.
In heating mode, a warm
operating medium warms
the room to be heated.
The medium cools down as a result
of the heat exchange.
To control the cooling or heating
capacity, a valve assembly
that is available as an accessory is
used, which routes the operating
medium through the register

(energy is given up) or past
the resister (energy is not given up).
The unit is designed for installation
in suspended ceilings (horizontal
installation), in an indoor area.
Thanks to the new and very robust
brushless EC fans (electronically
commutated), the energy
consumption, particularly
in the low speed range, can be
reduced significantly and the fan
speed can be adjusted infinitely
to the requirements. This also
enables an infinitely variable
output of the cooling or heating
capacity in order to obtain an even
more constant temperature
in the room.
The unit can be operated via
numerous controller options
or via an external control signal.
The applications can be adjusted
easily using jumpers. The following
controls are possible:
■
Single control using the IR remote
control provided by the factory,
alternative cabled remote control
(accessory) with five-stage fan
operation
■ Network control for up to
32 units, all units within
a group via a REMKO bus

The unit comprises a fin register,
an EC recirculating fan,
a condensate tray with
a condensate pump, an additional
condensate tray for the valve
assembly, swing fins, controller
with IR remote control and shape
improver, a discrete cover
for horizontal installation within
suspended ceilings.
The controller enables
the air quantity to be reduced
or increased by adjusting
the jumpers. This can also be
done retroactively and is used
to be able to react to changes
to the room's use. A potential-free
input for the "Enabling contact"
and an output for "Operating
modes" and "Cooling/heating
request" are available.
The accessories available include
room temperature controllers
for installation in the unit
or on the wall, a cooling valve
assembly and condensate pumps.

Intended use
The unit is designed
Depending on the model
and the equipment, the units are
only intended to be used
as a cold water drain to cool
or warm the operating medium
water or a water-glycol mixture
within a closed medium cycle.
Any other use or use in a way
that exceeds the definition above
is considered
non-intended use.
The manufacturer/supplier
assumes no liability for damages
arising from non-intended use.
The user bears the sole risk
in such cases.
Using the equipment as intended
also includes working in accordance
with the operating manual
and installation instructions
and complying with the maintenance

for a 2-conductor system.
The system has 2 medium pipes
(conductors: Supply and return
flow) for cooling using a cold
medium or heating using a warm
medium.
In cooling mode the combined
cooling register / heating register
in the indoor unit extracts the heat
from the room air by absorbing it
into the operating medium.
A circulation pump transports the
heated medium to a chiller which
extracts the heat from the medium
in an evaporator and then passes it
on to the outside air via a cooling
cycle in a condenser. The cooled

operating medium is then fed
in once again to the unit medium
circuit.
With 2-conductor systems, which
are used for cooling or heating,
the heating capacity can
be generated through a chiller
with heat pump function
or through a boiler and fed into
the circuit. In heating operation,
the indoor unit can deliver
the heat from the operating
medium to the room air.

Installation instructions for qualified personnel
Important notes prior
to installation
■
Observe the operating manuals
for the indoor unit and the
chiller or heating system when
installing the entire system.
■
The indoor units and chillers
work independently.
A connecting line between
the two is not necessary.
■
Transport the unit in its original
packaging as close as possible
to the installation location.
You avoid transport damage
by doing so.
■
Check the contents of the
packaging for completeness
and check the unit for visible
transport damage.
Report any damage immediately
to your contractual partner
and the shipping company.
■
Select an installation location
which allows air to flow freely
through the inlet and outlet.
(See section "Minimum
clearances").
■
Do not install the unit in the
immediate vicinity of devices
which generate intensive
thermal radiation.
Installation in the vicinity
of thermal radiation reduces
the unit output.
■
Lift the unit at the corners
and not by the medium
or condensate connections.
■
The medium connection lines,
valves and connections must
have vapour density insulation.
If necessary, also insulate
the condensate drainage line.
In dual systems with cooling
and heating modes,
the requirements of the current
Energy Savings Ordinance
(EnEV) are to be complied with.
■
Seal off open lines to prevent
dirt getting in and never kink
or crimp the lines.
■
Avoid unnecessary bends.
This minimises the pressure loss
in the lines.
■
Make all electrical connections
in accordance with applicable
DIN and VDE standards.
■
Always attach electrical lines
properly in electrical clamps
(otherwise a fire could result).
■
Service openings should be
provided in the suspended
ceiling to allow maintenance
access to the control box
or the valve assembly.
■
Any ventilation ducts or pipes
and connection fittings, which
are used to connect a second
room or supply fresh air, should
be insulated with diffusion-tight
material.
■
Only install the valve assembly
or other attachments once the
indoor unit has been installed.
Installation material
The unit is attached using
4 threaded rods provided
by the customer.
In order to be able to complete
installation, wall plugs, trapezoidal
sheet metal supports, steel profiles,
fixing clamps for medium
and condensate drainage lines
(as well as laying ducts),
and connection fittings
for condensate drainage lines
are required.
Selecting the installation location
The unit is specifically designed
for horizontal mounting
in suspended ceilings
with Euroraster dimensions.
However, it can also be installed
in suspended ceilings with different
dimensions.
Take into account the installation
height of the units.
Minimum clearances
Observe the minimum clearances
to allow access for maintenance
and repair work in the suspended
ceiling and to facilitate optimum
air distribution for the cover.
NOTE
If the unit is operated
in heating mode, the maximum
installation height of 2.7m
must not be exceeded
and a cabled remote control
must be used if necessary.

Required system components
Valve assembly (accessory)
In 2-conductor systems, cold
or warm medium is fed through
the register in the unit and cold
or warm air can then be released.
Control is provide by the 3-way
valve assembly. It comprises
the electrically actuated valve
head and the valve body.
If the head is electrically activated,
it actuates the body, which routes
the medium into the register.
If the temperature is reached
then the head is switched off
and the medium is fed through
the bypass past the register.
The bypass serves to ensure
the minimum medium flow rate
for the chiller.
increases and the unit's cooling
or heating capacity reduces.
All system components must be
approved for use with glycol.
CAUTION
When disposing, the product
requirements of the glycol
type which is used must be
observed.
Diaphragm expansion vessel (DEV)
To avoid pressure fluctuations
during standstill because
of temperature changes,
diaphragm expansion vessels filled
with nitrogen (moisture neutral)
must be integrated in the system.

Valves for hydronic balancing
The calculated individual pressure
losses in the pipeline network
layout for each individual unit are
adjusted to the entire system
with pipe leg regulating valves
to be provided on-site.
The nominal flow rates
for the medium adjust
to the necessary values
as a consequence
of the pressure loss.
Anti-freeze protection (accessories)
A water glycol mix is generally
used as medium for a cold water
system. Depending on the use
to which the glycol type
and quantity is put, the viscosity
changes, the loss in pressure
NOTE
No moisture can condense
in the nitrogen filler.
Safety valve
Safety valves limit excess operating
pressure due to excess warming
or overfilling of the operating
medium. The valve outlet requires
unobstructed draining into a drain
line. Applicable local disposal
ordinances must be observed
if glycol is used.
Automatic bleed valves
The unit has one or two manual
bleed valves on the collector pipe
of the register. The unit can be
bled separately after the system
has been filled.
Automatic air vent valves must
also be installed at the highest
point in the collective lines.
The delivery includes an additional
condensate tray for installation
on the side of the unit
in the suspended ceiling. This is
required to catch the condensate
that arises on a valve assembly
or on the valves provided
by the customer.
Subsequently check the incline
and that it is functioning correctly.

as to minimise the number
of bends.
5. The collars, screws, flexible /
folded spiral seam pipes
and insulation materials must
be provided by the customer.
These items can be obtained
from specialist suppliers
(Fig 11).
Adjoining room connection
The unit can also be used to cool
an adjoining room through a duct
system, e.g. hidden behind
a suspended ceiling. The following
prerequisites must be met for this:
■
Observe the regional
regulations concerning
air treatment.
■
Fit a collar with a nominal
diameter of 100 mm to the
adjoining room connection
■
The cooling capacity of the
.
indoor unit must be sufficient
for both rooms.
■
An opening must be made
between both rooms to allow
the air to circulate.
■
The maximum pipe length
of 7 m must not be exceeded
(page 22, Fig. 12).
■
In order to ensure that the air
is transported to the adjoining
room, close off 1 or 2 of the 4
outlets on the cover.
Stick a black single-sided
adhesive fabric strip over the
outlet openings being covered.
This strip must be able
to withstand the effects
of a continual air flow.
Fresh air connection
The unit can also be employed
to suck in and regulate the
temperature of fresh air (outdoor
air), in addition to room air.
This is the preferred option
for rooms with a high rate
of air consumption.
■
Observe the regional
regulations concerning
air treatment.
■
Fit a collar with a nominal
diameter of 100 mm to the
fresh air connection
(page 22, Fig. 13).
■
The fresh air content should
not exceed 10% of the nominal
air flow rate for the unit.
The fresh air supply should
be controlled by an additional
speed-regulated fan.
■
The air at the outdoor air intake
should be sucked in through
a dust filter at a maximum
rate of 2.5 m/s to prevent
the ingress of rain water.
■
The fan should be connected
to a separately protected
electrical supply that is to be
provided by the customer.

Condensate drainage connection
If the temperature falls below
the dew point, condensate will
form on the cooling fins during
cooling mode.
A collection tray together
with a condensate pump and liquid
level switch are fitted as standard
below the cooling fins. If the liquid
level switch trips a protective
shutdown due to inadequate
removal of the condensate,
the pump will switch
on immediately and run on
for approx. three minutes.
■
The condensate drainage line
provided by the customer
should have an incline
of at least 2 %. If necessary,
fit vapour-diffusion-proof
insulation.
Condensate drainage connection - Incorrect!
Riser pipe too far awayCondensate drainage line too large/small
■
If the level of the condensate
drainage line on the unit is
above that of the outlet, route
the pipe vertically upwards
and then with an incline
to the drain.
■
Route the condensate drainage
line of the unit freely into the
drain line. If the condensate
runs directly into a sewer
pipe, fit a trap to prevent
any unpleasant odours.
■
When operating the unit
at outdoor temperatures below
0°C, ensure the condensate
drainage line is laid to protect it
against frost. If necessary,
fit a pipe heater.

Using extneral
controllers
The units can be controlled
using the controller provided
by the factory or using an external
controller.
The external controller can be used
to activate the three Fan stages,
"High", "Medium" and "Low".
The operating voltage of 24V
or 230V can be selected via
the open or closed CON 8
strapping plug.
When connecting external
controllers, e.g. central building
control systems (CBCS), DIP switch
block DIP3 on the SW8 must be
configured to "OFF"
and the CON 8 strapping plug
must be removed.
The valve head for the valve
assembly to control the medium
flow rate can be controlled directly
using the controller.
Some applications require the units
to be enabled or blocked, e.g.
if cooling is to be interrupted
when the window is open.
A potential-free contact can be
connected to terminals 3 and 4.
This blocks unit operations after
it has been short-circuited
for 5 seconds and enables unit
operation once it has been open
for 2 seconds.

Leak testing
Before commissioning
Commissioning
Once the connection has been
established successfully, the leak
test is carried out.
1. Flush the system twice
with tap water.
2. Clean the sieve insert
on the dirt trap.
3. Fill the system with water
again and bleed the unit
at the manual bleed valves.
4. Adjust the test pressure
to at least 200 kPa (2.0 bar).
5. Check the connections after
a period of at least 24 hours
for leaking water. If water
is visible, the connection has
not been established properly.
Tighten the connection
or establish a new connection.
6. After a successful leak test,
remove the excess pressure
from the medium piping
if a water-glycol mixture is used
or adjust the non-circulating
pressure to the required system
pressure.
NOTE
During manual bleeding,
escaping glycol mixtures
must be disposed of separately.
Do not feed them into the
condensate tray!
Manual bleeding
Anti-freeze protection
for the medium
If a water-glycol mixture is used,
it is to be pre-mixed before being
put in the system. The desired
concentration is then to be checked.
Bleeding the system
■
Air may still be in the pipe
lines after the leak test.
This is carried during operation
of the circulation pump to the
automatic bleeding valves
or to the cold water drain. It is
necessary to bleed again here.
■
The non-circulating pressure
must then be adjusted to the
required system pressure.
DEV
■ The preliminary pressure
for the diaphragm expansion
vessel must be adjusted
individually to the system
layout, the volume of the
medium and the installation site.
Valves for hydronic balancing
■
The calculated excess pressure
in the pipe network layout
at the individual cold water
outlets must be adjusted
on the pipe leg regulating
valves.
Safety valve
■
The safety valves and their correct
function must be checked.
■
The drain line for the valves is
to be checked for function
and leak tightness.
Configuration setting
■
Commissioning should only be
performed and documented
by specially trained personnel.
■
Observe the manuals for the
unit and all other components
when commissioning the entire
system.
