  • Page 10 Installer manual ecoGEO Installation using buffer storage tanks If required by the application, the heat pump can also be connected to the heating / cooling system using a buffer separator tank. To do so, it is equipped with two temperature probes that are used to control a buffer storage tank for heating and a buffer storage tank for cooling.
  • Page 11 DHW storage tank. ecoGEO Basic Models The ecoGEO Basic heat pumps are designed to be used with external storage systems with a midway heat exchanger that can be either internal or external. DHW Recirculation This is used to control a DHW recirculation pump.
  • Page 12 Connection to the HTR system (B) In addition to the option mentioned above, in ecoGEO Basic models with an HTR system, pool production can be connected to the DHW circuit. This allows two options: exclusive pool production with the primary condenser and simultaneous heating / cooling and...

On the other hand, antifreeze mixture or water may spill from the heat pump's internal safety valves due to eventual circuit overpressure. There is a drain connection at the rear of the heat pump to evacuate these liquids.

  • Page 18 Installer manual ecoGEO Analogue inputs (AIxx) These terminals are used to connect external temperature probes. Only passive NTC temperature probes can be connected, so cable connection polarity is not important. If necessary, use extension cables with a maximum length of 50 m and a minimum diameter of 0.75 mm .
