No actions or adjustments are required.
Example 2
The outdoor unit is installed at the highest point in the water circuit. The total
water volume in the water circuit is 250 l.
Actions:
▪
Because the total water volume (250 l) is more than the default water volume
(185 l), the pre-pressure must be decreased.
▪
The required pre-pressure is:
Pg = (0.3+(H/10)) bar = (0.3+(0/10)) bar = 0.3 bar
▪
The corresponding maximum water volume at 0.3 bar is 270 l. (See the graph in
"Maximum water
volume" [
▪
Because 250 l is lower than 270 l, the expansion vessel is appropriate for the
installation.
Before connecting the water piping
Typical workflow
Connecting the water piping typically consists of the following stages:
1
Connecting the water piping of the outdoor unit.
2
Connecting the water piping of the external backup heater kit (if applicable).
3
Protecting the water circuit against freezing (addition of glycol or installation of
freeze protection valves).
4
Filling the water circuit.
5
Insulating the water piping.
