2. TECHNICAL FEATURES

2.1 Operating principle

The efficiency of a heat pump cycle is measured by the Coefficient of Performance (COP), i.e. the ratio between the energy supplied to the appliance (in this case, the heat transferred to the water to be heated) and the electrical energy used (by the compressor and the appliance's auxiliary devices). The COP varies according to the type of heat pump and to its relative conditions of operation.

For example, a COP value equal to 3 indicates that for every 1kWh of electrical energy used, the heat pump supplies 3kWh of heat to the medium to be heated, of which 2kWh are extracted from the free source.

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - INSTALLATION - 1

WARNING! Observe the general warnings and safety instructions listed in the previous paragraphs and strictly adhere to the indications therein contained.

4.1 Location of the appliance

WARNING! Prior to starting any installation activities, ensure that the location where the water heater is to be installed satisfies the following requirements:

a) In the event of water heaters without an air exhaust duct, the room of installation should have a volume of no less than 30m^3 and must be adequately ventilated. Avoid installing the appliance in rooms which may favour frost build-up. Do not install the product in a room containing an appliance that requires air to function (e.g. an open-chamber gas boiler, open-chamber gas water heater, etc.) unless otherwise indicated by local law. The product's safety and performance levels are not guaranteed in the event of outdoor installation.
b) The appliance's air exhaust and/or extraction duct (if present) must have access to the outside from the point where the appliance is installed. The connections for the air exhaust and aspiration ducts are located on the upper part of the appliance;
c) Ensure that the installation site and the electrical and hydraulic systems to which the appliance must be connected fully comply with the regulations in force;
d) The chosen site must have, or must be suitable to house, a single-phase 220 - 240V 50Hz power supply socket;
e) The chosen site must be suitable to house a condensate drainage outlet connected to the lateral of the appliance with a suitable siphon;
f) The chosen site must ensure that the appropriate safety distances from the wall and ceiling can be observed, for the appliance to operate properly and to facilitate maintenance operations (refer to fig. 5);
g) that installation of the ducts allows maintenance operations on the evaporator filter (refer to fig. 6);
h) that the plan allows a perfectly vertical operating position (refer to. fig. 2);
i) The chosen site must conform to the appliance's IP protection rating (protection against the penetration of liquids) as specified by the regulations in force;
j) The appliance must not be exposed to direct sunlight, even when windows are present;
k) The appliance must not be exposed to particularly aggressive substances such as acidic vapours, dust or gas-filled environments;
I) The appliance must not be directly installed on telephone lines that are unprotected against overvoltage;
m) The appliance must be installed as close as possible to the points of use to limit heat dispersion along the piping;
n) The air aspirated by the product must be free of dust, accid vapours and solvents.

In the event of non-ducted installation, observe the distances from the walls as indicated in specific picture in Fig. 7.

4.2 Positioning on the ground

Refer to Fig. 8:

1) Once the suitable installation position has been located, remove the packaging and remove the fixings visible on the pallet where the product is based.
2) Using the appropriate belt, remove the product from the pallet.
3) Fix the feet on the ground (through the appropriate holes) using suitable screws and rawplugs; after positioning the appliance, remove the fabric belt by loosening the relative bolts.

4.3 Air supply connections

Please bear in mind that using air from heated environments may hamper the building's thermal performance.

There is one connection for the air intake and one for the air exhaust on the rear side of the appliance. It is important to not remove (except for not canalized installation, fig. 7) or tamper the two grilles.

The outlet air may reach temperatures that are 5 - 10^ lower compared to that of the inlet air and, if not ducted, the temperature of the room of installation may drop sensibly. If operation by exhaust or intake to the outside (or another room) of the treated air by the heat pump is foreseen, suitable ducting must be used for air passage. Ensure that the ducting is connected and fastened securely to the product to prevent accidental disconnections and annoying noises.

We recommend installing the ducted product as shown in figure 4.

The minimum height for a ducted installation is shown in figure 5.

In the event of a ducted product, allow a minimum distance between the product and the ducts to allow for the removal of the evaporator filter (ref. fig. 6).

In the event of a ducted product with rigid pipes, during installation take all the necessary measures to ensure maintenance operations can be carried out (fig.4, 5 and 6).

In the event of a non-ducted product, in order to avoid by-passes between the air intake and outlet, replace the grilles on the product with accessory grilles (code 3078095 where not supplied), or do not remove the grilles on the product and fit a curve in the delivery pipe (ref. figure 7).

WARNING: Do not use outdoor grills resulting in high losses, such as anti-insect grilles. The grids used should allow good air flow, the distance between the inlet and outlet air should not be less than 50cm.

Protect pipes from the external wind. The expulsion of air in the chimney is allowed only if the draft is appropriate, is also required periodic maintenance of the barrel, and chimney accessories.

The total static pressure loss due to installation is calculated by adding the loss of the single installed components; this sum must be lower than the static pressure of the fan (par. 2.5)

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - Air supply connections - 1

WARNING! A type of canalization not suitable affects product performance and significantly increases the heating time!

4.4 Hydraulic connections

Before using the product, we recommend filling its tank with water and draining it completely so as to remove the residual impurities.

Connect the water heater inlet and outlet to pipes or pipe fittings that can withstand the operating pressure and temperature of the hot water, which may reach 75^ . It is not advisable to use materials that cannot withstand such temperatures. The dielectric union fitting with joint (supplied with the product) must be applied to the hot water outlet pipe, prior to performing the connection.

Screw a "T" fitting identified by a blue collar onto the appliance's water inlet pipe. It is mandatory to screw on said fitting a cock for draining the product with a tool on one side, and a suitable device against overpressure on the other side.

In countries which acknowledge EN 1487 It is mandatory to fit a safety group onto the appliance's water inlet pipe. The device must comply with the EN 1487 standard and must have a maximum pressure of 0.7 Mpa (7 bar). Moreover, it must at least include the following components: a cut-off valve, a non-return valve, a control mechanism for the non-return valve, a safety valve and a water pressure shut-off device.

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - Hydraulic connections - 2

See Figure 13.

The accessory part codes are:

1/2" hydraulic safety device (for products with 1/2" diameter inlet pipe) code 877084;
- 3 / 4" hydraulic safety device (for products with 3 / 4" diameter inlet pipe) code 877085;
- Syphon 1'' code 877086.

Some countries may require the use of alternative safety devices, as required by local law; the installer must check the suitability of the safety device he tends to use. Do not install any shut-off device (valve, cock, etc.) between the safety device and the heater itself.

The device's relief outlet must be connected to a relief pipe with a diameter no less than that of the appliance's connection (3/4") , with the aid of a siphon creating an air gap of at least 20mm to allow for visual inspection; this is to prevent any harm to persons and animals or damage to objects should the device activate and for which the manufacturer shall not be held liable. Use a flexible pipe to connect the pressure safety device inlet to the cold water system pipe, using a cut-off valve if necessary. Additionally, a water discharge pipe must be fitted to the outlet in case the drainage tap is opened.

Avoid overtightening the pressure safety device and do not tamper with it.

It is normal for water to trickle from the pressure safety device during the heating phase; for this reason, it is necessary to connect the outlet, which must always be left exposed to the atmosphere, to a drainage pipe that slopes downwards and towards an area not subject to frost. It is advisable to also connect the condensate outlet to the same pipe, through the connection located on the bottom side of the water heater.

The appliance must not operate with water hardness levels below 12^ ; on the other hand (>25^) , it is advisable to use a suitably calibrated and monitored water softener in the event of particularly hard water; in this event, the residual hardness must not fall below 15^ .

The SYS versions have a 3 / 4^ coupling for recirculation of the hydraulic system (if present).

The SYS version coil has two 34 G couplings, upper (inlet) and lower (outlet), on which to connect an auxiliary source (fig.15).

WARNING! It is advisable to carefully wash the system's pipes in order to remove any residues of screw thread, welding or dirt which may hamper the correct operation of the appliance.

6.4 Recommendations for prevention of Legionella growth (based on European standard CEN/TR 16355)

Informative

Legionella are small rod shaped bacteria which are a natural constituent of all fresh waters.

Legionaries' disease is a serious pneumonia infection caused by inhaling the bacteria Legionella pneumophilia or other Legionella species. This bacterium is frequently found in domestic, hotel and other water systems and in water used for air conditioning or air cooling system. Hence the main intervention against the condition is prevention, through control of the organism in water systems.

The European standard CEN/TR 16355 gives recommendations for good practice concerning the prevention of Legionella growth in drinking water installations but existing national regulations remain in force.

General recommendations

"Conditions for Legionella growth". The following conditions encourage Legionella growth:

water temperature between 25^ and 50^ . To restrict the growth of Legionella bacteria, the water temperature shall be in a range that the bacteria will not grow or have minimum growth, wherever possible. Otherwise, it is necessary to disinfect a drinking water installation by means of a thermal treatment;
- stagnation of the water. To avoid long periods of stagnation, the water in every part of the drinking water installation should be used or flushed at least weekly;
nutrients, biofilm and sediment within the installation including water heaters, etc. Sediment can support the growth of Legionella bacteria and it should be removed on a regular basis from e.g. storage systems, water heaters, non-flow through expansion vessels (e.g. once a year).

Regarding to this storage water heater, if

1) the product is switched-off for a period of time [months] or
2) the water temperature is constantly maintained between 25^ and 50^ ,

the Legionella bacteria could growth inside the tank. In these cases, to restrict the Legionella growth, it is necessary to perform the so called "thermal disinfection cycle".

This storage water heater is sold with a software that, if it is enabled, carry out a "thermal disinfection cycle" to restrict the Legionella growth inside the tank.

This cycle complies with the hot water installations and relevant recommendations for Legionella prevention specified in the following Table 2 of the CEN/TR 16355.

Thermal disinfection for 20 min at a temperature of 60°C, for 10 min at 65°C or for 5 min at 70°C at every draw-off point at least once a week. e. The water in the circulation loop shall be not less than 50°C. - No requirement.

This electronic storage water heater is sold with a thermal disinfection cycle function not enabled for default; as a consequence, if, for any reason, one of the above said "Conditions for Legionella growth" could occur; it's hardly recommended to enable such function by following the instructions mentioned in this booklet [see par. 7.7].

However, this thermal disinfection cycle is not able to destroy any Legionella bacteria in the storage tank; so, if this function is then disenabled, Legionella bacteria growth might re-take place again.

Note: when this software carries out the thermal disinfection treatment, the energy consumption of the storage water heater is expected to increase.

Warning: when this software has been carrying out the thermal disinfection treatment, water temperature can cause severe burns instantly. Children, disabled and elderly are at highest risk of being scalded. Feel water before bathing or showering.

In the upper section, a DISPLAY shows the set temperature or the detected temperature, while in bottom section other specific indications such as the operation mode signal, fault codes, settings and information of the product's condition.

7.2 Turning the water heater on/off

Turning the appliance on: simply press the ON/OFF button to turn the water heater on.

The DISPLAY visualises the "set" temperature and operation mode, while the HP symbol and/or heating element symbol indicate the operation of the heat pump and/or heating element respectively.

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - Turning the water heater on/off - 1

Turning the appliance off: simply press the ON/OFF button to turn the water heater off, only "OFF" appears on the display. The protection against corrosion is still ensured (in case HC-HP contact works, insert rechargeable batteries, see figure 1 and par. 5), while the product will automatically ensure that the temperature of the water in the tank does not fall below 5^ .

7.3 Setting the temperature

The desired temperature for the hot water (T SET POINT) can be set by turning the knob clockwise or anti-clockwise (the visualised temperature will flash temporarily).

To visualise the current temperature of the water in the tank, press and release the knob; the relative value will appear for 8 seconds then the set temperature will reappear once again.

The temperatures that can be obtained in the heat pump mode vary between 50^ and 55^ , by factory default setting, and 40^ - 55^ , by varying the setting on the installer menu (P13).

The maximum temperature that can be obtained with the heating element is 65^ , by factory default setting where expected, and 75^ , by varying the setting on the installer menu (P11).

7.4 Mode of operation

In normal operating conditions, the "mode" button can be used to vary the operating mode through which the water heater reaches the set temperature. The selected mode will be visualised on the line below the temperature.

If the heat pump is active, the following symbol will appear:HP
If the heating element or integration (P8=3) are active, the following symbol will appear:W

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - Mode of operation - 1

  • GREEN: the water heater uses only the heat pump to ensure maximum energy saving. This function is recommended for air temperatures higher than 0^ during heating and for normal operation. The maximum temperature that can be reached depends on the value of the P13 parameter (51^ - 62^) – refer to Paragraph 7.7. For air conditions outside the pump's operating range, the integration is enabled (except for P8 = 2 ). The integration is always enabled in case of anti-Legionella and antifreeze.
  • AUTO: this default function is disabled, to make it selectable set the P8 parameter value to 1 or 3. The water heater learns how to reach the desired temperature in a limited number of hours, with rational use of the heat pump and, only if necessary, of the integration. The maximum number of hours used depends on the P14 parameter - TIME_W (See paragraph 7.7), that is set by default at 8 hours. (recommended during the winter to ensure better comfort). The integration is always enabled in case of anti-Legionella and antifreeze.
  • BOOST: by enabling this mode the water heater simultaneously uses the heat pump and the integration to reach the desired temperature in the least time possible. Once the temperature has been reached, operation returns to the previous mode. This mode is not selectable when the P8 parameter value is 2.
  • BOOST2 (P5 can be enabled on the installer's menu): this default function is disabled, to make it selectable set the P8 parameter value to 1 or 3. By enabling this mode the water heater simultaneously uses the heat pump and the integration to reach the desired temperature in the least time possible. Compared to Boost, the Boost2 mode is always enabled, even after reaching the set temperature. The integration is always enabled in case of anti-Legionella and antifreeze.
  • VOYAGE (to be activated through the installer menu P3): studied for situations in which users are absent from the appliance's operating location; this mode allows for programming the number of days of absence, during which the water heater will remain turned off. The appliance will activate only to supply hot water on the day of arrival; protection against corrosion will continue to be guaranteed while the product will automatically ensure that the temperature of the water in the tank does not fall below 5^ . Press the "mode" button until selecting the VOYAGE mode, turn the knob to set the number of days ("days") then press the knob to confirm. The display will only

visualise the number of days that remain until the product's reactivation. Once this time has elapsed, the unit will switch back to the previous mode. In the event of an electric connection with a day/night contactor or with HC-HP signal, the number of nights of absence must be specified, taking into account that the product only operates during the night. If, for example, you leave home on Saturday morning and return on Sunday of the following week, on Saturday morning you should set the device to 8 days of absence in order to have hot water ready for your return on Sunday.

  • PROGRAM (P4 can be enabled on the installer's menu): two programs are available, P1 and P2, that can be enabled individually or combined together throughout the day (P1 + P2) . The appliance can enable the heating phase to reach the chosen temperature at the pre-set hour, giving priority to the heating with the heat pump and, only if necessary, with the integration according to the following combinations:

For P8 = 0 the integration is enabled only when the conditions are outside the heat pump's operating range.

For P8=1 and 3 the integration is enabled simultaneously with the heat pump when requested.

For P8 = 2 the integration is never enabled.

The integration is always enabled in case of anti-Legionella and antifreeze.

Press "mode" to select the desired Program mode (P1/P2/P1+P2), turn the knob to set the desired temperature, press the knob to confirm, turn the knob to set the desired time and press to confirm; in P1+P2 mode the information for both of the programs can be set.

For electrical connection with HC/HP signal dual power supply you can program heating of the water at any time of the day.

This function requires you to set the current time, see following paragraph.

Warning: to ensure comfort for operation in P1+P2 mode with times that are very close together, it is possible that the water temperature is higher than the temperature set.

P2 parameter - Anti legionnaire's disease protection

If enabled, the water heater automatically performs the anti-Legionella protection function. The water temperature must remain higher or equal to 55^ all day or higher or equal to 60^ for at least 1 hour. These temperatures can cause burns, so we recommend you use a thermostatic mixer. The anti-Legionella function is enabled via this parameter; the temperature to be reached is settable via the P20 parameter and the hysteresis via the P15 parameter. Suggesting to set the P20 parameter at 60^ and the P15 parameter at 4^ . During the cycle of antilegionella will be displayed "ANTI_B" alternately to the mode of operation, once the cycle is done the set temperature remains the original one.

In the event that is enabled the two-tier rate signal HC-HP, the function will take place during the economic tariff. To stop press "on/off".

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - P6 parameter - Silent - 1

P7 parameter - Operation with two-tier electricity rate

To be able to operate also on appliances with a two-tier rate system, the control logic calculates the number of average hours a day during which the power supply is available in the economy mode (HC). For activating this function turn on P7 parameter.

A self-learning function ensures that the appliance reaches the pre-set temperature in the time range during which the economy rate applies; the maximum limit of hours is determined by the P14 TIME_W parameter; after the initial startup (or after switching off the hardware), the default setting is 8 hours. In order to optimize the self-learning function it is advisable to set AUTO mode.

P8 parameter (for details see paragraph 7.4)

The P8 parameter allows you to manage the product's different operating modes. It can have values of 0, 1, 2, 3.

STANDARD (value 0 - default): only the GREEN, BOOST, VOYAGE (if enabled with P3) and PROGRAM (if enabled with P4) modes can be selected with the "mode" button; the integration is by the electric heating element that operates according to the mode selected.

HE ON (value 1): the GREEN, AUTO, BOOST, BOOST2, VOYAGE (if enabled with P3) and PROGRAM (if enabled with P4) modes, i.e. all available modes, can be selected with the "mode" button; the integration is by the electric heating element that operates according to the mode selected.

COMBI (value 2): only the GREEN, VOYAGE (if enabled with P3) and PROGRAM (if enabled with P4) modes can be selected with the "mode" button. Integration to the heat pump is not provided; the electric heating element always operates in the event of anti-Legionella and antifreeze. It is advised to perform a pre-heating of inlet water to combi boiler made by the heat pump (see fig. 16).

SYSTEM (value 3): the GREEN, AUTO, BOOST, BOOST2, VOYAGE (if enabled with P3) and PROGRAM (if enabled with P4) modes, all available modes can be selected with the "mode" button; the integration is by the external auxiliary heat generator where it is correctly connected both hydraulically (see fig. 15 - B or C) and electronically (see paragraph 4.5 and fig. 12) to the product. It is advised when it is available auxiliary heat generator which is able to replace the electrical resistance for integration function (only for SYS models).

P9 parameter - Photovoltaic function

If you have a photovoltaic system, you can set the product to optimise use of the electricity produced. After having done the electrical connections as described in paragraph 4.5 fig. 12 and set the P9 parameter to other than 0, when the SIG2 signal is detected, the current operating mode is automatically modified as follows:

STANDARD (value 0 - default): the operating mode of the previously described procedures is not modified.

CHAFFOTEAUX FLUENDO PLUS ONT B 14 LPG - P9 parameter - Photovoltaic function - 1

PV GREEN (value 1): the PV icon is displayed (see figure to the side). When the signal from the inverter is present, the name of the selected mode alternates with the text PV GREEN. The product will reach the set temperature (the most between T SET POINT and T W PV), with only the heat pump (max 62^ ).

PV HE (value 2): the PV icon is displayed (see figure to the side). When the signal from the inverter is present, the name of the selected mode alternates with the text PV HE. The product will reach the set temperature (the highest between T SET POINT and T W PV), operating with only the heat pump up to 62^ and subsequently with the heating element (1500 W).

PV BOOST (value 3): the PV icon is displayed (see figure to the side). When the signal from the inverter is present, the name of the selected mode alternates with the text PV BOOST. The product will reach the set temperature (the highest between T SET POINT and T W PV), operating both with only the heat pump and the heating element (1000 W) up to 62^ and subsequently with only the heating element (1500 W).

There must be the SIG2 signal for at least 5 minutes to enable the photovoltaic function (once the product starts a cycle, it will operate for at least 30 minutes).

If parameter P18 is active, function P18 is automatically deactivated when the photovoltaic function is activated.

P18 parameter - SG function

If you have an SG signal, you can connect the signal cable as described in chapter 4.5 fig. 12 and when the P18 function is enabled the SG icon will be displayed. Once you have received the SIG2 signal for at least 5 minutes (once the product starts a cycle, it will operate for at least 30 minutes), the name of the selected mode alternates with the text SG ON and the current operating mode is automatically modified by thermostating the product to the temperature set

(the highest between T SET POINT and T W PV), operating with only the heat pump (max 62^ ).

If parameter P9 is active, function P9 is automatically deactivated when the SG function is activated.

P19 parameter - Errors

This is a read-only parameter that shows the history of the last 10 errors; it is accessible only by the technical assistance. The number (3 digits) indicates the occurred error code whilst the error number is represented in the lower string in chronological order (max 10 errors - the number 10 indicates the most recent occurred error).

7.8 Anti-frost function

When the product is supplied with power and there is no hot water demand, if the water temperature in the tank goes below 5^ , the heater coil (1000 W) is activated automatically to heat the water to 16^ . With P8=3 the function is performed by the integrated circuit.

7.9 Defrost

The defrost function is activated when the heat pump has been working for at least 20 minutes, the detected air temperature is below 15^ and the evaporator temperature is decreasing rapidly. When the defrost cycle is running, the icon to the side is displayed.

7.11 Errors diagnostics

As soon as a fault occurs, the appliance enters into the fault mode while the display emits flashing signals and visualises the error code. The water heater will continue supplying hot water provided the fault affects only one of two the heating units, by activating the heat pump or heating element.

If the fault involves the heat pump, the symbol "HP" will flash on the screen, while the heating element symbol will flash if the fault involves this component. If both components are affected, both symbols will flash.

If the product shows an error signal, switch the appliance off and then on with the ON/OFF button (without batteries); if the error signal persists, contact the technical assistance.
