Installation
Sizing Expansion Vessels
Expansion vessel volume must fit the local system water
volume.
To size an expansion vessel for the heating circuit the following
formula and graph can be used. When the necessary
expansion vessel volume exceeds the volume of an built-in
expansion vessel, install an additional expansion vessel so that
the sum of the volumes of the expansion vessels exceeds the
necessary expansion vessel volume.
For installation of the heat pump unit, the installer MUST
provide and install a suitable primary-side expansion vessel as
the model DOES NOT come fitted with a primary-side
expansion vessel.

Where;
V : Necessary expansion vessel volume [L]
ε : Water expansion coefficient
G : Total volume of water in the system [L]
P ¹ : Expansion vessel setting pressure [MPa]
P ² : Max. pressure during operation [MPa]
Graph to the right is for the following values
ε : at 70 °C = 0.0229
P ¹ : 0.1 MPa
P ² : 0.3 MPa

Water Circulation Pump Characteristics
1. Primary circuit
Pump speed can be selected by main remote controller setting
(see <Figure 4.3.3> ).
Adjust the pump speed setting so that the flow rate in the primary
circuit is appropriate for the Table 4.3.1. It may be necessary to
add an additional pump to the system depending on the length
and lift of the primary circuit.
<Second pump >
If a second pump is required for the installation please read the
following carefully.
If a second pump is used in the system it can be positioned in 2
ways.
The position of the pump influences which terminal of the FTC
the signal cable should be wired to. If the additional pump(s)
have current greater than 1A please use appropriate relay.
Pump signal cable can either be wired to TBO.1 1-2 or CNP1 but
NOT both.
Option 1 (Space heating only)
If the second pump is being used for the heating circuit only then
the signal cable should be wired to TBO.1 terminals 3 and 4
(OUT2). In this position the pump can be run at a different speed
to the heat pump unit's in-built pump.
2. Sanitary circuit
Default setting: Speed 2
DHW circulation pump MUST be set to speed 2.
Immersion heater
Do NOT energise the immersion heater until the DHW tank is full of water. Also do NOT energise any immersion heater if any sterilisation
chemicals remain in the DHW tank as this will cause premature failure of the heater.

Water flow rate range [L/min]
<Table 4.3.1>
* If the water flow rate is less than 7.1 L/min, the flow rate error
will be activated.
If the water flow rate exceeds 27.7 L/min, the flow speed will
be greater than 1.5 m/s, which could erode the pipes.
