1.1 Important information

ATTENTION!
When operating or maintaining a heat pump, the legal
requirements of the country where the heat pump is operated
apply. Depending on the refrigerant quantity, the heat pump
must be inspected for leaks at regular intervals by a certified
technician, and these inspections must be recorded.
ATTENTION!
If the heat pump or circulating pumps are controlled
externally, an flow rate switch is required to prevent the
compressor from being switched on when there is no volume
flow.
ATTENTION!
In installed and dismantled state, the heat pump module may
only be tilted by a maximum of 45° (in each direction) ( see
Cap. 5.3 on pag. 7).
ATTENTION!
Before start-up, the transport fastening must be removed.
ATTENTION!
Flush the heating system prior to connecting the heat pump.
ATTENTION!
The maximum test pressure in the heating circuit and the
brine circuit is 4.0 bar. This value must not be exceeded.
ATTENTION!
With fully demineralized water, it is important to ensure that
the minimum permissible pH value of 7.5 (minimum
permissible value for copper) is complied with. Failure to
comply with this value can result in the heat pump being
destroyed.
ATTENTION!
The brine solution must contain at least a 25 % concentration
of a monoethylene glycol or propylene glycol-based
antifreeze, which must be mixed before filling.
ATTENTION!
A suitable de-aerator (micro bubble air separator) must be
installed in the heat source circuit by the customer.
ATTENTION!
The heat pump must be started up in accordance with the
installation and operating instructions of the heat pump
manager.
ATTENTION!
The supplied dirt trap must be inserted in the heat source inlet
of the heat pump to protect the evaporator against the ingress
of impurities.
ATTENTION!
Work on the heat pump must only be performed by
authorised and qualified after-sales service technicians!
ATTENTION!
Disconnect all electrical circuits from the power source prior
to opening the device.

1.2 Intended use

This device is only intended for use as specified by the manu-
facturer. Any other use beyond that intended by the manufac-
turer is prohibited. This requires the user to abide by the rele-
vant project planning documents. Please refrain from
tampering with or altering the device.

1.3 Legal regulations and directives

This heat pump is designed for use in a domestic environment
according to Article 1, Paragraph 2 k) of EU directive 2006/42/
EC (machinery directive) and is thus subject to the require-
ments of EU directive 2014/35/EU (low-voltage directive). It is
thus also intended for use by non-professionals for heating
shops, offices, hotels and other similar working environments,
agricultural establishments and hotels, guesthouses and other
residential buildings.
This heat pump conforms to all relevant DIN/VDE regulations
and EU directives. Refer to the EC Declaration of Conformity in
the appendix for details.
The heat pump must be connected to the power supply in
compliance with all relevant VDE, EN and IEC standards. Any
further connection requirements stipulated by local utility com-
panies must also be observed.
The heat pump is to be connected to the heat source system
and the heating system in accordance with all applicable
regulations.
This unit can be used by children aged 8 and over and by per-
sons with limited physical, sensory or mental aptitude or lack of
experience and/or knowledge, providing they are supervised or
have been instructed in the safe use of the unit and understand
the associated potential dangers.
Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user
maintenance must not be carried out by children without su-
pervision
ATTENTION!
When operating or maintaining a heat pump, the legal
requirements of the country where the heat pump is operated
apply. Depending on the refrigerant quantity, the heat pump
must be inspected for leaks at regular intervals by a certified
technician, and these inspections must be recorded.
More information can be found in the accompanying log book.
1.4 Energy-efficient use of the heat
pump
By operating this heat pump you are helping to protect our en-
vironment. Both the heating system and the heat source must
be properly designed and dimensioned to ensure efficient op-
eration. It is particularly important to keep water flow tempera-
tures as low as possible. All connected energy consumers
should therefore be suitable for low flow temperatures. Raising
the heating water temperature by 1 K corresponds to an in-
crease in energy consumption of approx. 2.5 %. Low-tempera-
ture heating systems with flow temperatures between 30 °C
and 50 °C are particularly well-suited for energy-efficient oper-
ation.
The domestic hot water temperature should not exceed 45 °C
when the heat pump is in operation. This will save you signifi-
cant amounts of energy.
