INSTALLATION The Evinox heat interface unit must be installed, commissioned and maintained by qualified and competent personnel in accordance with this document as well as national regulations and standards. Handling The unit should be moved into position before lifting still within its packaging to prevent any damage whilst being positioned.
The manufacturer cannot accept any responsibility for any damage caused to the unit due to crossed connections. Any Evinox engineer callout/visit due to this issue will be chargeable. The ModuSat® heat interface unit is designed...

Evinox Flushing By-pass Kit Evinox flushing by-pass kit allows for isolation of the HIU from the network during cleaning and flushing the system. The kit includes an H shape by-pass with built in extended isolation valve, 2 strainers and 4 isolation valves.
Take caution of hot water Slowly close the isolation valves at the top or bottom of the unit Contact Evinox Energy The ModuSat® pump should not be used for flushing. The pump is integral to the unit and should not be used for flushing and cleaning the system.
First fill of apartment heating system The ModuSat® unit is fitted with a pressure gauge that is mounted in the front panel. This gauge reading should be used when filling the secondary circuit. An external filling loop should be used for filling the secondary circuit with the mains cold water.
Please confirm with the water treatment consultants that the chemicals used and cleaning method statement complies with the requirements set out in this section. Evinox Energy do not take responsibility for approving inhibitors used for dosing the system. 2551868AB...
Warranty due to Water Quality The warranty of the ModuSat® unit is strictly related to the instructions and procedures indicated in this manual and the warranty does not cover any damage caused by scale and/or corrosion resulting from poor water quality. The components and materials used in the system assembly should also be checked to ensure they do not contribute to dissolved oxygen that can cause corrosion.
Follow the instructions Any damage caused by an incorrect connection will invalidate the warranty. Evinox Energy cannot accept any responsibility for incorrect wiring. The ModuSat® wiring board is located within the ModuSat® itself under a removable metal cover. To access the connection board, the full front case cover should be removed. The connection board is found at the top of the unit to your right.
Doing so may invalidate the warranty. Connection Terminations Evinox Energy strongly recommend in accordance with best practice that all wiring connections to the board, especially the BUS and room controller are terminated using ‘bootlace ferrule’ connectors. These connectors ensure a good connection and that the whole cross sectional area of the wiring is intact.
ModuSat® Connection Board Please Note: When connecting external valves or pumps to the ModuSat control board, it must be ensured that each connection does not exceed 1amp @ 220/240V (AC). 2551868AB...
ViewSmart Room controller connections The Room controller is a white ABS box with a graphic display. If ViewSmart is not installed on the unit, it should be installed in the main living area of the dwelling. It must be connected to the connection board within the ModuSat®...

SETTING INTO OPERATION / COMMISSIONING Evinox Commissioning Engineers The unit should be commissioned by Evinox Energy commissioning engineers to validate the warranty unless otherwise specified by Evinox Energy. System Checklist Prior Commissioning It is important that the system is fully ready for the works to be carried out.
The valve should be set to 125% above the design flow rate. The project specific set-point (if required) can be confirmed by Evinox Energy. Tighten Actuator Connections Ensure that the actuators are tightened to ensure the operation of the unit.
6.2.1 Pump Evinox ModuSat® unit has an integral Wilo Pulse-width modulation (PWM) circulation pump. Please note: When the unit is switched over to heating mode the pump will run for 2 mins prior to the heating PICV opening, this is not a fault in the unit but a normal control function as the HIU assesses the current heating circuit flow temperature.
The below graphs show the available pump head for different ModuSat® models depending on the secondary flow rate. The secondary apartment pressure drop (excluding the unit) should not exceed the value shown. ModuSat XR/XR-ECO XX-10 ModuSat XR/XR-ECO XX-20 Flow rate l/s...
Evinox Technical Personnel Evinox Technical Personnel who will visit the project during the course of the installation and at completion to arrange for final commissioning and calibration, do so to assist the contractor and install team to deal with any questions and queries.
