Production of domestic hot water or heating When the heat pump is operating, other than in the start-up and transition phases, the inlet temperature must not fall below 25°C. A lower value may cause system anomalies, including damage to the compressor. Similarly, the outlet temperature must not exceed 58°C. With temperatures outside of this range, especially if combined with low water flow rates, there may be anomalies in the operation of the unit, or in the most critical cases, the safety devices may be...
  • Page 23 AHP60-50/70 - Installation, Use and Maintenance Water flow rate on the condenser The nominal water flow rate is determined for a temperature difference of 5°C between the inlet and the outlet of the condenser. The maximum authorised flow rate is that with a temperature difference of 3°C whereas the minimum is that with a temperature difference of 8°C in nominal conditions, as shown on the data sheet. For more detailed information, we provide a table below which indicates the minimum flow rates to be guaranteed on the condenser to ensure that it operates correctly according to the model, as well as the disconnection and re-engagement flow rates for the flow rate controller.

Precautions to take for water filling • Supervise all filling/refilling operations. • Before filling/refilling the system with water, disconnect the power supply to the units. • Filling/refilling the installation must always be carried out under controlled pressure conditions (max. 1 bar). Ensure that a pressure reducer and a safety valve have been fitted on the filling/ refilling duct. • The water in the filling/refilling duct must be filtered properly beforehand to remove all impurities and suspended particles. Ensure that a removable screen filter and filter-settler are installed. • Periodically check and evacuate the air that accumulates in the system. • Fit an automatic air vent at the highest point of the system. To fill the installation, we recommend the use an external tap installed by the installer.
