Figure 1: Unit lifting operation Warning: During all lifting operations, make sure the unit is firmly secured to prevent it from tipping over or falling. The lifting equipment, ropes and harnesses must be chosen by personnel having appropriate skills who are able to assume all responsibilities related to their use. The machine is balanced.
2.4 POSITIONING The following must be taken into account when choosing the unit place of installation and making relevant connections: – size and origin of the hydraulic piping; – location of the power supply; – accessibility for maintenance or repair operations; –...
The slab must be: – made in suitable foundation with a height of about 15-20 cm above the surrounding land, – supplied with a cork gasket properly sealed along the perimeter, – flat, horizontal and able to support 150% of the operating weight of the machine. –...
3. INSTALLATION 3.1 SPACES FOR INSTALLATION The unit is made grouping all connections to the outdoor hydraulic circuit on a single side. Check that the positioning of the unit allows easy access to that side and the electric control board. Comply with the clearances as shown on the dimensional drawing, and ensure they are calculated allowing easy access to internal components in case of maintenance.

GLYCOL UNITS An on-board AQUA Link tank is always included as part of the standard supply of these units. The associated chiller must, in turn, be selected with an on-board tank. This choice is based on the possibility of exploiting a complete system that is not dependent on external accessory elements.
3.6 CHECKS AQUA Link is not equipped with a completely independent control but is provided with a control module (IQ-nomic) controlled by a signal from the module (IQ-nomic) connected to the Gold and from the (All Year Comfort) module that...
The connection between different units is created by connecting control modules (IQ-nomic) together as shown in wiring diagrams. The AQUA Link hydraulic module is equipped with inverter technology to adjust the rotation speed of the pumps contained in 4. SAFETY MEASURES The machine complies with Directives 2006/42/EC, 2004/108/EC, 2006/95/EC, 97/23/EC and applicable Technical Standards as specified in the Declaration of Conformity which is an integral part of this manual.
4.3 INSTALLATION IN AREAS WITH EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES The units do not fall within the scope of the 94/9/EC directive – Presidential Decree n. 126 dated 23/3/98 no. 126, therefore they are not designed for installation in potentially explosive atmospheres. Contact the manufacturer for any adjustments/solutions. 4.4 PROTECTIVE DEVICES The machine is equipped with appropriate technical means to protect people from the hazards that cannot be reasonably eliminated or adequately reduced through design.
5. COMMISSIONING 5.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS – Check that the electric connection has been performed correctly and that all clamps are tightly fastened. – Check that the voltage of line terminals meets specifications. If voltage is subject to frequent changes, contact our technical department to select appropriate protections.
The two-way valve internal to AQUA Link has the aim to adjust the temperature of the water sent to the circuit of the chilled beams, a value established by the All Year Comfort control. The 0-10 V signal that drives this valve must come from a temperature probe installed on the flow of the secondary circuit (see par.
Check there are no water leaks on the hydraulic circuit joints Monthly Check the filling of the hydraulic circuit Monthly Clean the Y filter on the hydraulic circuit located outside the AQUA Link module (not supplied Monthly as standard) Ensure that the noise emitted by the machine is regular Every 4 months 7.3 PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT...
