Specifications and Accessories
The document outlines the specifications for the installation and operation of a heat pump system. It includes details on the external temperature sensor, which is provided with the heat pump unit and manager. The operation and handling of the heat pump manager are described in the accompanying user manual.
Remote Control and Building Management
A remote control station is available as an optional accessory, offering the same operation and menu navigation as the heat pump manager. Connection is via an interface with an RJ 12 plug. The heat pump manager can be integrated into a building management system through additional interface cards, supporting Modbus, EIB, KNX, and Ethernet connections.
Transport and Installation
The heat pump must be transported with a maximum tilt of 45 degrees and should be moved using a pallet. The unit and transport pallet are secured with four anti-tip devices that must be removed. Installation requires a flat, smooth surface to ensure proper sound insulation and protection against small animals. The air outlet direction should be perpendicular to the main wind direction to facilitate defrosting. Specific installation conditions, such as elevated platforms or high wind loads, may require additional anti-tip measures.
Condensate Drainage
Condensate must be drained frost-free, with the heat pump standing horizontally. The condensate pipe should have a minimum diameter of 50 mm and be frost-protected. Direct discharge into sewage treatment plants or pits is not allowed due to potential damage from aggressive vapors.
Heating and Electrical Connections
Heating connections are made inside the unit, with hoses leading downward. The heating system must be flushed before connection to remove debris. The electrical connection requires a 5-core cable, with specific requirements for phase sequence and overload protection. A screened communication cable connects the heat pump manager to the internal microcontroller.
Commissioning
Commissioning should be performed by authorized service personnel. All connections must be installed, and the heating circuit must be free of obstructions. The heat pump manager settings must be adjusted according to the user manual. The commissioning process involves ensuring water flow, selecting the "Automatic" mode, and gradually opening heating circuits.
Maintenance
To protect the paint, avoid leaning objects against the unit. The exterior can be cleaned with a damp cloth and standard cleaners, avoiding abrasive or acidic substances.
Overview
The document provides detailed technical information on the installation, operation, and maintenance of an air-to-water heat pump system. It covers specifications, intended use, operating principles, components, and installation guidelines.
Specifications and Intended Use
The heat pump is designed for heating and, depending on the model, cooling heating water. It is suitable for both new and existing heating systems and can operate in mono energy and bivalent modes. The system is not intended for high heat consumption scenarios, such as building drying, and is not compatible with frequency converters.
Operating Principle
The heat pump extracts heat from the surrounding air using a fan and evaporator, transferring it to a refrigerant. An electrically driven compressor increases the heat's temperature, which is then transferred to the heating water. The system can also operate in reverse for cooling, where the heating water transfers heat to the refrigerant.
Components
The main components include a fan, liquefier, compressor, evaporator, expansion valve, filter dryer, switch box, and dirt trap. The system uses the refrigerant R410A, which is CFC-free and non-combustible.
Installation Guidelines
The heat pump must be installed on a level surface with adequate sound insulation and protection from small animals. It should be positioned to allow unrestricted defrosting of the evaporator. Condensate must be drained frost-free, and the system should be protected against frost if necessary.
Electrical and Heating Connections
Connections include the flow and return of the heating system, condensate drain, control cable, and power supply. The heating system must be flushed before connection to remove impurities. Electrical connections require a 5-core cable and appropriate circuit protection.
Accessories and Additional Features

Transport and Handling
During transport, the heat pump should not be tilted more than 45 degrees. It should be transported using a pallet and secured with transit bolts, which must be removed before installation.
Maintenance and Safety
Regular maintenance is necessary to ensure efficient operation. The system must be installed in compliance with local building regulations and should allow for easy access for maintenance.
Specifications and Wiring:
Ensure the incoming supply has a clockwise rotating field with phase sequence L1, L2, L3. Incorrect wiring prevents the heat pump from starting, indicated by a warning on the heat pump manager display. The control voltage is supplied via the heat pump manager, requiring a 3-pole line as per electrical documentation. A shielded communication line connects the heat pump manager with the µPC2 in the heat pump, necessary for outdoor installations.
Demand Sensor Connection:
The demand sensor R2.2 (NTC 10) must be installed based on the hydraulics used. Without it, the second heat generator cannot be controlled if communication is interrupted. The return sensor R2 is active when the compressor runs and must remain connected.
Commissioning:
Commissioning should be performed by an authorized technician. Before starting, ensure all connections are installed, valves are open, air paths are clear, and the fan rotates correctly. The heat pump manager settings must match the heating system's instructions. The water in the buffer tank must be at least 18°C. Follow a specific procedure to ensure proper commissioning, including closing consumer circuits, ensuring correct water flow, and gradually reopening heating circuit valves.
Maintenance and Cleaning:
Avoid leaning objects against the device. Clean external parts with a damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. Prevent sediment in the heat exchanger by ensuring a diffusion-resistant installation. Severe contamination requires cleaning by a technician using a 5% phosphoric or formic acid solution. The air system, including the evaporator and fan, should be cleaned before each heating period. Ensure proper drainage from the condensate tray.
Faults and Troubleshooting:
Faults are indicated on the heat pump manager display. Consult the operating instructions for troubleshooting. Only authorized technicians should perform work on the heat pump.
Decommissioning and Disposal:
Disconnect the heat pump from the power source and close all valves before removal. Trained personnel must dismantle the pump, adhering to environmental standards for material disposal, especially refrigerants and oils.
