INTRODUCTION Rheem Thermal Water to Water Hot Water Heat Pumps are available in sizes from 23kW to 352kW nominal output. The units are manufactured as water-to-water or ground-coupled design. Each unit is a fully packaged unit, requiring only electrical and water connections to be made on installation.
SECTION 1 INSTALLATION For validity of the Rheem Thermal warranty, installation must be carried out by registered trade person. Delivery Reference should be made to the unit specifications to determine weight and lifting requirements. Packaging materials should be removed upon delivery so to avoid any sweating of the electrical compartment or potential staining to the case, particularly in tropical areas.
Where the pH is less than 6.0 the Rheem Thermal warranty does not apply to the heat pump. pH is a measure of wether the water is alkaline or acid. In an acidic water supply, the water can attack stainless parts and cause them to fail.
Every three phase unit comes with Phase sequencing relay therefore ensure connect correct phase connections during commissioning. Control Design All Rheem Thermal heat pumps intended for individual installation are manufactured with in-built thermostat control and refrigeration pressure safety controls. ...
SECTION 2 COMMISSIONING The Rheem Thermal heat pump is fully charged with refrigerant. The following checks should be carried out: Installation and operation instructions should be read prior to commissioning. The unit should stand on a firm level base but noting that it should have a small incline towards the condensate drainage inbuilt to the case (plumbing end).
1. Check condensate drain for blockages. 2. Ensure that water is not collecting in the base of the unit. RECOMMENDED RHEEM THERMAL SERVICE PROCEDURE 1. In locations where ambient temperature can be very low, if unit is not used for a long period, it is essential to drain all water from unit to prevent ice build-up in water pipe-work.
For seasonal shut-downs, always allow water to pass through the heater, even if the heater is not being used. If the heater is isolated with chlorinated water or in its water piping, chlorine gases may corrode the heat exchanger. Rheem Thermal’s warranty will be voided where chemical corrosion is clearly diagnosed as the cause of failure.
