INSTALLATION MOUNTING

6INSTALLATION

6.1 General Information

As a rule, the unit must be installed indoors on a level, smooth and horizontal surface. The entire base frame should thereby make close contact with the surface in order to ensure adequate sound insulation. Failing this, additional sound insulation measures may become necessary.

The heat pump should be located to allow safe and easy maintenance/service access. This is ensured if a clearance of approx. 1 m in front of and to each side of the heat pump is maintained.

6.2 Sound Emissions

The heat pump offers silent operation due to efficient sound insulation. To prevent noise transmission to the foundation, a suitable, sound dampening rubber mat should be placed underneath the base frame of the heat pump.

Any sound transmission to the heating systems is prevented by means of flexible pressure tubing already integrated into the heat pump.

7MOUNTING

7.1 General

The following connections need to be established on the heat pump:

-supply/return flow of the brine system

-supply/return flow of the heating system

-power supply

7.2 Connection on Heating Side

CAUTION! The heating system must be flushed prior to connecting the heat pump.

Before completing the heat pump connections on the heating water side, the heating installation must be flushed in order to remove any impurities that may be present, as well as residues of sealing material, and the like. Any accumulation of deposits in the condenser may result in a total failure of the heat pump.

Once the installation on the heating side has been completed, the heating system must be filled, de- aerated and pressure-tested.

Heating water minimum flow rate

The heating water minimum flow rate through the heat pump must be assured in all operating states of the heating system. This can be accomplished, for example, by installing a differential pressure-free manifold or an overflow valve. The procedure for setting an overflow valve is described in the Chapter Commissioning.

Frost protection for installations prone to frost

Provided the controllers and circulating pumps are ready for operation, the frost protection feature of the controller is active. If the heat pump is taken out of service or in the event of a power failure, the system has to be drained. In heat pump installations where a power failure cannot be readily detected (holiday house), the heating circuit must contain a suitable antifreeze product.
