    In the same way as the rising mains the horizontal distribution network to the ModuSat TP units will be insulated perfectly up to the satellite. The length of the horizontal distribution pipework should be limited to the minimum while placing the rising mains as near as possible to the satellites.

  • Page 22 In order to reduce the energy consumption, the primary circuit will have to be perfectly isolated and its temperature could be lowered to 70°C, for the summer period. The water flow feeding each ModuSat cannot be lower than 800 l/h in order to satisfy the needs for a bathroom.
  • Page 23: Installation

    During this process, it’s forbidden to use any chemical or other products not approved by EVINOX. The non observance of this rule invalidated the warranty. Make sure the environment where the ModuSat TP is to be installed complies with governing rules and laws.

  • Page 32: Freeze Prevention

    To guarantee the ModuSat TP, Evinox insists that only its own heating system water conditioning products are used: - BIONIBAL corrosion inhibitor - BIONIBAGEL antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor. IMPORTANT WARNING: Bionibal or Bionibagel must only be put in a clean installation that has been checked. It is therefore imperative to fill the entire system one or more times with clean water as required.

     check the correct operation of the safety thermostat (when present) Note: Our technical personnel, who will visit when the ModuSat TP has been installed to arrange for its final commissioning and calibration, do not perform the role of inspector and/or approval officer for the system.
  • Page 37 Note the total measured energy at the moment it starts. Check that the meter does not present errors. Pump Release Before powering the ModuSat TP, check that the pump rotor is not jammed (this can occur after a period of inactivity). Act as follows to release it: Isolate the electricity to the pump before draining it.
  • Page 38: Annual Inspection

     2 years for parts and labour * However, the ModuSat TP warranty will always start from the date of the serial number and will be extended by a maximum of 6 months to allow for project completion. If the ModuSat TP is commissioned before the 6 month extensions the warranty will start from the commissioning date.
  • Page 39 Replacement parts are chargeable until passed as faulty by Evinox, when a credit will be provided. Any parts that have failed as a result of poor servicing or misuse will not be covered by our warranty.
  • Page 40: Use

    This is because the unit is permanently supplied, even when the external thermostat is off. The ModuSat TP is provided on the front panel with a Manual/Automatic push button: in manual mode the DHW valve is completely opened thus allowing DHW production.
