3.11.1 Frost protection function
The frost protection function for the system is controlled us-
ing the product itself or using the optional system control. If
the system control fails, the product guarantees limited frost
protection for the heating circuit.
At negative outdoor temperatures, there is an increased risk
to cancel a pro-
of the heating water freezing if a heat pump fault occurs, e.g.
due to a power cut or a defective compressor.
3.11.2 Low-water pressure protection
This function continuously monitors the heating water pres-
sure in order to prevent a possible loss of heating water.
3.11.3 Freeze protection
This function prevents the unit's internal heating circuit from
freezing when the heating flow temperature drops below a
certain value.
If the heating flow temperature of the outdoor unit falls below
4 °C, the compressor is switched on in order to increase the
heating flow temperature.
3.11.4 Pump blocking protection
This function prevents the pumps for heating water from
sticking. The pumps, which were out of operation for
23 hours, are switched on for 10–20 seconds, one after the
other.
3.11.5 Safety cut-out (SCO) in the heating circuit
If the temperature in the heating circuit of the internal elec-
tric back-up heater exceeds the maximum temperature, the
safety cut-out shuts down the electric back-up heater as a
securing measure. After it is triggered, the safety cut-out
must be replaced.
– Max. heating circuit temperature: 89 ℃
