Explanation
In the evaporator, energy from the heat source is absorbed by the
refrigerant passing through the evaporator. The refrigerant turns into
gas. (See the "About your heat pump" section for further information).
INTEGRAL is the heating system's energy balance. Heat generation
is controlled by a calculated requirement. This value is determined by
comparing the actual supply temperature with its calculated supply
temperature. The difference between the temperatures is multiplied
by the time during which the difference is active. The resulting value
is referred to as the integral. The integral value is automatically esta-
blished when the heating system is in use. The value of the integral
can be viewed in the display under the sub-menu TEMPERATURE.
The compressor raises the temperature and pressure of the refrige-
rant. (See the "About your heat pump" section for further information).
In the condenser, the refrigerant supplies its heat energy to the heat
transfer fluid circuit. (See the "About your heat pump" section for fur-
ther information).
The CURVE value is set via the display. The set value indicates the
supply temperature of the water that is transported to the radiators at
an outdoor temperature of 0°C.
Is a water based mixture that transports energy from the heat source
to the heat pump. (See the "About your heat pump" section for further
information).
The fluid circuit transports energy from the heat source to the heat
pump. (See the "About your heat pump" section for further
information).
Is the circuit in the heat pump that through evaporation, compression
and condensation takes energy from the brine circuit and supplies it
to the heat transfer fluid circuit. (See the "About your heat pump" sec-
tion for further information).
Is the fluid that transports heat from the brine circuit and supplies it to
the heat transfer fluid circuit. (See the "About your heat pump" sec-
tion for further information).
Heater element, element.
The control computer controls the entire heating installation. All set-
tings are stored and the history of the installation is registered here.
The control computer's settings can be changed via the display.
