To Fill The Water Circuit; To Fill The Domestic Hot Water Tank; To Insulate The Water Piping; Connecting The Electrical Wiring - Rotex HPSU Bi-Bloc Ultra Series Installer's Reference Manual

NOTICE
In case an optional domestic hot water tank is installed:
▪ A drain device and pressure relief device must be
installed on the cold water inlet connection of the
domestic hot water cylinder.
▪ To avoid back siphonage, it is recommended to install a
non-return valve on the water inlet of the domestic hot
water tank in accordance with the applicable legislation.
▪ It is recommended to install a pressure reducing valve
on the cold water inlet in accordance with the
applicable legislation.
▪ An expansion vessel should be installed on the cold
water inlet in accordance with the applicable legislation.
▪ It is recommended to install the pressure relief valve on
a higher position than the top of the domestic hot water
tank. Heating of the domestic hot water tank causes
water to expand and without pressure relief valve the
water pressure inside the tank can rise above the tank
design pressure. Also the field installation (piping,
tapping points, etc.) connected to the tank is subjected
to this high pressure. To prevent this, a pressure relief
valve needs to be installed. The overpressure
prevention depends on the correct operation of the field
installed pressure relief valve. If this is NOT working
correctly, overpressure will deform the tank and water
leakage may occur. To confirm good operation, regular
maintenance is required.
7.8.4

To fill the water circuit

To fill the water circuit, use a field supply filling kit. Make sure you
comply with the applicable legislation.
INFORMATION
Make sure both air purge valves (one on the magnetic filter
and one on the backup heater) are open.
7.8.5

To fill the domestic hot water tank

See the installation manual of the domestic hot water tank.
7.8.6

To insulate the water piping

The piping in the complete water circuit MUST be insulated to
prevent condensation during cooling operation and reduction of the
heating and cooling capacity.
If the temperature is higher than 30°C and the humidity is higher
than RH 80%, the thickness of the insulation materials should be at
least 20 mm to prevent condensation on the surface of the
insulation.

electrical specifications of the heat pump.
2 Connecting the electrical wiring to the outdoor unit.
3 Connecting the electrical wiring to the indoor unit.
4 Connecting the main power supply.
5 Connecting the backup heater power supply.
6 Connecting the shut-off valves.
7 Connecting the electrical meters.
8 Connecting the domestic hot water pump.
9 Connecting the alarm output.
10 Connecting the space cooling/heating ON/OFF output.
11 Connecting the changeover to an external heat source.
12 Connecting the power consumption digital inputs.
13 Connecting the safety thermostat.

About electrical compliance

Only for RRGA04~08DAV3
Equipment complying with
International Technical Standard setting the limits for harmonic
currents produced by equipment connected to public low-voltage
systems with input current >16 A and ≤75 A per phase.).

7.9.3 Precautions when connecting the
electrical wiring
INFORMATION
Also read the precautions and requirements in the
following chapters:
▪ General safety precautions
▪ Preparation
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.
7.9.4 Guidelines when connecting the electrical
wiring
Keep the following in mind:
▪ If stranded conductor wires are used, install a round crimp-style
terminal on the end of the wire. Place the round crimp-style
terminal on the wire up to the covered part and fasten the terminal
with the appropriate tool.
