Buffer cylinder

Heating installations, which mainly consist of fan coils or ra-
diators, usually contain a low volume of water. We recom-
mend installing a buffer cylinder. In the case of two or more
heating circuits in the system, a buffer cylinder or a low loss
header should also be used as decoupling.
For the outdoor unit, it is important for the evaporator's de-
icing process that sufficient thermal energy can be provided.

Selecting the installation site

▶
The installation site must be below 2000 metres above
sea level.
▶
Select a dry room that is frost-proof throughout and in
which the maximum installation height is not exceeded
and the environmental temperature is neither above nor
below the permitted range.
– Permissible environmental temperature: 7 ... 25 ℃
–
Permissible relative air humidity: 40 ... 75 %
▶
Ensure that the installation room has the required min-
imum volume.

Minimum installation room = refrigerant filling volume
(kg)/practical limit value (kg/m³) (for R410A = 0.44 kg/m³)
▶
Ensure that the required minimum clearances can be
maintained.
▶
Observe the permissible height difference between out-
door unit and indoor unit. See the technical data in the
appendix.
▶
When selecting the installation site, you must take into
consideration that when the heat pump is in operation, it
will transfer vibrations to the walls.
▶
Ensure that the wall is even and offers sufficient load-
bearing capacity to bear the weight of the product.
▶
Ensure that pipes can be easily routed in an appropriate
way (domestic hot water side, heating side and refriger-
ant side).
▶
Do not install the product above another unit that may
damage it (e.g. above a cooker that produces water va-
pour and grease) or in a room with a high level of expos-
ure to dust or in a corrosive environment.
▶
Do not install the product below a unit from which liquids
may flow.
