Design Of The Hydraulic System - Daikin EKHBRD011ABV1 Installation Manual

Simultaneous operation of the auxiliary boiler and the
EKHBRD* unit is NOT allowed.
Pay special attention to the control of the circulation
pump of the auxiliary boiler. This pump should not
operate simultaneously with the EKHBRD* unit.
A simultaneous operation of both systems will risk the
plate heat exchanger of the EKHBRD* unit to freeze-
up!

Design of the hydraulic system

When designing the hydraulic system, always consult
application examples" on page 2
When designing the hydraulic system always consider the available
external static pressure of the EKHBRD* unit.

The pump will adjust its rpm (rotations per minute) as to control a
fixed ΔT between return and leaving water temperature.
This external static pressure-graph is valid at maximum pump rpm.

please always check the specifications of the
pump of the old unit;
if the external static pressure of that pump is
higher than the external static pressure of the air
to water heat pump system, please install an
additional pump with higher external static
pressure in combination with a balancing bottle.
