  • Page 4: For The User

    For the user Important information The Greensource is a family of heat pumps, that extract energy from outdoor air to produce water based heating and, if required, hot water for your house. The sizes available are 6, 7 and 9.5 kW.
  • Page 5: How A Heat Pump Works

    How a heat pump works The heat pump collects heat from the outdoor air The Greensource heat pump has been manufactured for easy and reliable use as well as to provide your house with inexpensive and environment friendly heating. The easiest way to describe how a heat pump works is to say it works like a refrigerator, backward.

    Component parts of the heat pump Greensource A/W heat pump 6, 7 and 9.5 kW Both the control and the additional electric heater is integrated in the Greensource hot water distribution unit. The heat pump is installed outside, the hot water distribution unit is installed indoors.
  • Page 8: Control Unit Rego 800

    Control unit Control unit Rego 800 The control unit makes sure the heat pump gives the best energy savings and that it runs for many years. The control unit controls and monitors the heating and hot water supply in your house. The monitoring function is es- pecially important, it shuts down the heat pump in the event of operational disturbances so that no critical parts are damaged.
  • Page 9: The Control Unit's Operating Mode

    Heat pump with Greensource hot water distribu- tion unit When the heat pump is used with the Greensource hot water distribution unit, the control unit sets itself for this operation. This means that the heat pump operates with additional heat from the hot water distribution unit and that the hot water is produced in the hot water distribution unit´s hot water...
  • Page 10: The Control Unit's Control Method For Heating

    Control unit The control unit’s control method for heating The control unit controls heating production based on an outdoor sensor or an outdoor sensor in combination with a room sensor. Control with an outdoor sensor Control with an outdoor sensor is the most common method used by the control unit to control the heat pump.

  • Page 15: Temperatures

    Menu Temperatures There are several different temperature sensors connected to the heating installation. Each sensor plays an important part in the heat pump's daily operations. The current temperatures for the sensors which are most important for controlling heating and hot water production are given under Temperatures.

    Advanced menu Hysteresis Hysteresis settings can be made under Heating system temperature. The hysteresis determines when the heat pump (compressor) is to start/stop in relation to the heat curve’s value. The compressor continues slightly longer than according to the curve and starts again when the fl ow temperature has dropped somewhat below the value of the curve.

    Advanced menu Timers There are a number of timers in the control unit. The statuses for these are shown in the menu Timers. You can only view the timers that are running, i.e. are counting down. Most timers are only of interest to installers and service technicians.
  • Page 23: Alarm Log

    Advanced menu Alarm log You can easily see any alarms and warning windows that may have occurred, see section What to do if a fault occurs. The menu provides information about the alarm type and when the alarm occurred. If there is an alarm symbol in the menu window this means the alarm is still active, and some form of action is required.
