Service Technician's Heat Pump Kit - Rheem 310 Series Service Instructions Manual

SERVICE TECHNICIAN'S HEAT PUMP KIT

A Service Technician's Heat Pump Kit is available and may be required for work carried
out on a 310 Series Heat Pump.
The Service Technician's Heat Pump Kit must be ordered through Rheem Spare Parts,
Rheem part number 299265.
The kit provides aids for conducting work and diagnosing problems with 270, 325 and 410
Series Heat Pumps, as well as a Heat Pump Service Power Cable that may be used with
an adaptor to power the 310 Series Heat Pump (or without the adaptor to power 270, 325
and 410 Series Heat Pumps).
Heat Pump Service Power Cable
In situations where timed (off peak) power is unavailable, the Heat Pump Service Power
Cable must be used to provide power to operate the unit in order to diagnose a fault and /
or conduct a full functional test at the completion of any service work.
The Heat Pump Service Power Cable may be used with other models of heat pump, and
therefore requires an adaptor to be fitted to the heat pump end of the cable. The adaptor
allows the cable to be plugged into the controller of the 310 Series Heat Pump.
The adaptor can be ordered separately through Rheem Spare Parts, Rheem part number
052255.
The Heat Pump Service Power Cable with the adaptor fitted is plugged into the heat pump
module's controller, in place of the normal mains power cable that relays power from the
storage tank – see the diagrams on page Error! Bookmark not defined..
Before using the Heat Pump Service Power Cable, isolate power to the water
heater. Remove the mains power cable from the heat pump's controller, and plug
in the Heat Pump Service Power Cable instead.
The Heat Pump Service Power Cable has an integrated power switch, and is plugged into
a standard 240V AC 10A mains supply general power outlet. An extension cable will most
commonly be required to reach the closest GPO, and it is recommended that an earth
leakage circuit breaker device (not supplied) be utilised as well.
The heat pump module can now be operated. The Heat Pump Service Power Cable must
be removed and the normal mains power cable replaced at the completion of the work.
