!
Please note
The heat transfer medium can cause corrosion
damage to on-site lines and components.
The components and lines used must be resist-
ant to the heat transfer medium. Never use zinc-
plated/galvanised pipes.
1. Equip the primary circuit with an expansion vessel
and safety valve (in accordance with DIN 4757).
Note
The expansion vessel must be approved to
■
DIN 4807. Diaphragms of the expansion vessel
and safety valve must be suitable for the heat
transfer medium.
■
Discharge and drain pipes must terminate in a
container that can hold the maximum possible
expansion volume of the heat transfer medium.
2. Ensure adequate thermal and anti-vibration insula-
tion of all pipes routed through walls.
Connecting the secondary circuit
1. Equip the secondary circuit on site with an expan-
sion vessel and safety assembly (in accordance
with DIN 4757).
Fit the safety assembly to the on-site line in the
heating water return.

5. Close Victaulic coupling
there is no gap.
6. Carry out a pressure test.
3. Connect the primary pipes to the heat pump.

Please note
Mechanically loaded hydraulic connections
lead to leaks, vibration and appliance dam-
age.
Connect on-site lines so that they are free of
load and torque stress.
!
Please note
If the casing is not carefully closed, damage
from condensation may occur.
■
With line entries, ensure the diaphragm
grommets on the l.h. side panel are seated
correctly.
■
Make line entries airtight.
4. Insulate primary lines inside the building with ther-
mally insulating and vapour diffusion-proof materi-
als.
5. Fill the primary circuit with Viessmann heat transfer
medium and vent.
