1.4 Energy-Efficient Use of the Heat
Pump With the purchase of this heat pump you are helping to protectthe environment. A prerequisite for energy-efficient operationis the correct design of the heat source system and heating sys-tem (radiators and circulation pump).It is particularly important for the efficiency of a heat pump tokeep the temperature difference between heating water andheat source as small as possible. For this reason, it is advisableto design the heat source and heating system very carefully. Atemperature difference of approx. one Kelvin increases thepower consumption by around 2.5 %. When designing theheating system, it should be borne in mind that special con-sumers such as e.g. hot water preparation should also be con-sidered and dimensioned for low temperatures. Underfloorheating systems (panel heating) are optimally suited for heatpump use on account of the low flow temperatures (30 °C to40 °C). It is important to ensure that the heat exchangers are not con-taminated during operation because this increases the temper-ature difference, in turn reducing the COP.Correct adjustment of the Heat pump manager is also impor-tant for energy-efficient use of the heat pump. Further informa-tion can be found in the Heat pump manager's operating in-structions. 2 Purpose of the Heat Pump
The air-to-water heat pump is to be used exclusively for theheating of heating water. It can be used in newly built or previ-ously existing heating systems.The heat pump is suitable for mono energy and bivalent opera-tion down to an external temperature of -20 °C.Proper defrosting of the evaporator is guaranteed by maintain-ing a heating water return flow temperature of more than 18 °Cduring continuous operation.The heat pump is not designed for the increased heat con-sumption required when a building is being dried out. The addi-tional heat consumption should be met using special devicesprovided by the customer. If a building is to be dried out in au-tumn or winter, we recommend installing an additional heatingelement (available as an accessory). NOTE
The device is not suitable for operation with a frequencyconverter.
2.2 Operating Principle
Outside air is drawn in by the ventilator and fed via the evapora- tor (heat exchanger). The evaporator cools the air, i.e. it extracts heat from it. This extracted heat is then transferred to the work-ing medium (refrigerant) in the evaporator.The heat is “pumped” to a higher temperature level by in-creasing its pressure with the aid of an electrically driven com-pressor. It is then transferred to the heating water using the liq-uifier (heat exchanger).Electrical energy is used to raise the temperature of the heat inthe environment to a higher level. Because the energy ex- tracted from the air is transferred to the heating water, this type of device is called an air-to-water heat pump.The air-to-water heat pump consists of the main componentsevaporator, ventilator and expansion valve, as well as the com-pressor, the liquefier and the electrical control system.At low ambient temperatures, humidity accumulates on theevaporator in the form of frost reducing the transfer of heat.Uneven accumulation during this process does not indicate afault. The evaporator is defrosted automatically by the heatpump as required. Steam may be emitted from the air outlet de-pending on the atmospheric conditions.
2.3 Functional description for
integrated thermal energy metering The compressor manufacturer's performance specifications fordifferent pressure levels are stored in the heat pump software.Two additional pressure sensors for determining the currentpressure level are installed in the refrigerating circuit, one be-fore and one after the compressor. The current heat output canbe calculated from the compressor data stored in the software and the current pressure level. The integral for the heat output over the runtime gives the quantity of thermal energy suppliedby the heat pump, which is displayed separately for heating,domestic hot water preparation and swimming pool waterpreparation on the heat pump manager´s display.EN-4 452160.66.74 · FD 9912 www.gdts.one English LI 9TU - LI 12TU 3 Scope of Delivery
The heat pump contains the components listed below. The refrigeration circuit is "hermetically sealed" and contains the fluorinated refrigerant R410A included in the Kyoto proto- col. Information on the GWP value and CO
equivalent of the refrigerant can be found in the chapter Device information. The refrigerant is CFC-free, non-ozone depleting and non-combus- tible.
The switch box is located in the heat pump. It can be swung out after removing the lower front cover and loosening the fasten- ing screw located in the upper right-hand corner. The switch box contains the supply connection terminals, as well the power contactors, the soft starter unit and the heat pump manager. The heat pump manager is a convenient electronic regulation and control device. It controls and monitors the entire heating system on the basis of the external temperature, including hot water preparation and safety systems. The customer must install the external temperature sensor, which is included in the scope of supply of the heat pump man- ager together with the necessary fixing accessories. The enclosed operating instructions describe the function and use of the heat pump manager.
3.3 Accessories pack
On top of the heat pump: 1 x insulating mat, duct connection 1 x small sealing ring, air intake 1 x large sealing ring, air outlet In the switch box: 1 x external sensor with mounting material Under fan: 8 x vent plugs ø 30 - black Outside the packaging: 1 x installation and operating manual
A remote control adds convenience and is available as a specialaccessory. Operation and menu navigation are identical tothose of the heat pump manager. Connection takes place via aninterface (special accessories) with RJ 12 Western plug. NOTE
In the case of heating controllers with a removable operatingelement, this can also be used directly as a remote control.
4.2 Building management
technology The heat pump manager can be connected to a building man-agement system network via supplementation of the relevantinterface plug-in card. The supplementary installation instruc-tions of the interface card must be consulted regarding theexact connection and parameterisation of the interface. The following network connections can be made on the heatpump manager: Modbus EIB, KNX Ethernet 5Transport ATTENTION!
When transporting the heat pump, ensure that it is not tiltedmore than 45° (in any direction).Use a pallet for transporting the heat pump to the final installa-tion location. The basic device can be transported with a lifttruck, hand truck or by means of 3/4" pipes fed through theholes in the base plate or frame.The heat pump and the transport pallet are joined by four tran-sit bolts. These must be removed.Before using the transport holes in the frame, it is necessary toremove the lower side panel assemblies. This is done by loosen-ing each of the two screws at the base and then withdrawingthe panels by unhooking them from above. Rehang the panelsby gently pushing them in an upwards direction.Be careful not to damage any components when inserting thepipes through the frame.At the installation location, 8 black dust caps, which are in-cluded in the packaging of the device, must be snapped intothe transport holes.After the transport, the transport securing device is to be re-moved on either side at the bottom of the unit. ATTENTION!
The transport securing device is to be removed prior tocommissioning.Opening the cover Closing the cover
The device is designed to enable several connection options. The position of the air outlet opening can be moved from right (factory default) to left or top by turning over one of the two screwed on covers. By replacing the bottom side cladding sections, it is also possi- ble to move the hydraulic connection from left (factory default) to right. The different connection options (see cap. 1) are shown in the dimension drawing. The air-to-water heat pump must be installed in a frost-free, dry room on an even, smooth and horizontal surface. The entire frame should lie directly on the floor to ensure an adequate soundproof seal. If supporting feet are used, the heat pump must be installed horizontally. In this case, the specified sound level can be up to 3 dB(A) higher, and additional sound insula- tion measures may be necessary. The heat pump must be installed so that maintenance work can be carried out without being hindered. This can be ensured by maintaining a clearance of 1m in front of the heat pump and to the side on which the heating water connections are located. The side panel assemblies must not be covered by connecting pipes. Neither frost nor temperatures higher than 35 °C must occur in the installation location at any time of the year. Never install the device in rooms subject to high humidity. Con- densation can form on the heat pump and air circuit if the hu- midity exceeds 50 % and the external temperature is below 0°C. If the heat pump is installed on an upper storey, the load-bear- ing capacity of the ceiling should be checked. On account of the acoustics, measures for isolating possible vibrations should also be very carefully planned in advance as well. Installation on a wooden floor is not recommended.
6.2 Condensed Water Pipe
Condensed water that forms during operation must be drained off frost-free. To ensure proper drainage, the heat pump must be mounted horizontally. The condensate pipe must have a minimum diameter of 50 mm and must be fed into a sewer in such a way that it is safe from frost. Do not discharge the con- densate directly into clearing tanks or cesspits, as aggressive vapours or a condensed water pipe which has not been laid in a frost-free manner could destroy the evaporator.
We recommend connecting the heat pump to the heating system using a flexible hose to prevent solid-borne noise transmission to the heating system if requirements regard- ing noise are high. Installed air ducts should be sound-isolated from the heat pump to prevent the transmission of solid-borne sound to the ducts. If the transport restraint screws are not removed from the compressor, acoustic emissions from the device are signif- icantly louder! 7 Installation
7.1 General Information
The following connections need to be established on the heat pump: - Fresh and exhaust air - Flow and return flow of the heating system - Condensate outflow - Voltage supply - Temperature sensor 1 m (0,11 m)
Do not restrict or block the area around the air intake or outlet. ATTENTION!
Only operate the heat pump with the air ducts connected. The glass fibre reinforced concrete air ducts offered as acces- sories are moisture-resistant and diffusion-free (exhaust air duct 600 x 600 and inlet duct 750 x 750). When using the air duct for the air outlet side (600 x 600), the "insulating mat duct connection" (in the accessory pack) is to be adhered to the air outlet on the desired connection side. The sealing collar is used to seal the air ducts on the heat pump. The air ducts are not screwed directly onto the heat pump. Only the rubber seal comes into direct contact with the heat pump when the system is installed correctly. This guarantees easy as- sembly and disassembly of the heat pump and also ensures that solid-borne sound is well insulated. If an alternative air duct is being used to that which has been supplied as an accessory, care must be taken to ensure that it does not reduce the cross sectional area of the air intake and air outlet sides. The "small and large sealing rings" included in the scope of supply can be used for sealing the heat pump connec- tion. They also function as vibration isolators. The large sealing ring can be used to position the air intake opening of the heat pump directly onto an appropriately con- structed wall opening. It must be ensured that the interior side of the wall opening is lined with thermal insulation to prevent the wall from becoming cold and to prevent moisture from penetrating the wall. When very short air ducts are used on the air outlet, the exterior side of the wall opening must be fitted with a safety guard or an air deflector grille suitable for preventing body parts (fingers or arms, especially those of children) coming into contact with the ventilator in the heat pump. If flange-mounted air ducts are used, connecting stubs are se- cured on the air inlet and air outlet sides with 4 M8 hexagon bolts in the threaded holes provided (the hexagonal long nuts). When doing this, ensure that both air duct stubs only touch the insulation. There should be no contact with the external sheet- ing. Care must also be taken to ensure that suitable vibration isola- tion and duct insulation are provided. M8EN-8 452160.66.74 · FD 9912 www.gdts.one English LI 9TU - LI 12TU
7.3 Heating System Connection
The heating system connections on the heat pump have a 1¼"external thread. Use a spanner to firmly grip the transitionswhen connecting the heat pump.The connection on the heating side can also be made towardsthe right. To do this, the left and right bottom front panels mustbe removed. The two connecting pipes, including pipe sup-ports, must be moved from the left to the right side of the de-vice. The front panels must then be re-mounted the oppositeway around.Before connecting the heating water system to the heat pump,the heating system must be flushed to remove any impurities,residue from sealants, etc. Any accumulation of deposits in theliquifier could cause the heat pump to completely break down.For systems in which the heating water flow can be shut off viathe radiator or thermostat valves, an overflow valve must be in-stalled in a heating bypass behind the heat pump by the cus-tomer. This ensures a minimum heating water flow rate throughthe heat pump and helps to avoid faults.Once the heating system has been installed, it must be filled,de-aerated and pressure-tested.Consideration must be given to the following when filling thesystem: Untreated filling water and make-up water must be of drinking water quality (colourless, clear, free from sedi-ments) Filling water and make-up water must be pre-filtered (pore size max. 5 µm).Scale formation in domestic hot water heating systems cannotbe avoided, but in systems with flow temperatures below 60 °C,the problem can be disregarded. With high-temperature heatpumps and in particular with bivalent systems in the higher per-formance range (heat pump + boiler combination), flow tem-peratures of 60 °C and more can be achieved. The followingstandard values should therefore be adhered to with regard tothe filling and make-up water according to VDI 2035, sheet 1:The total hardness values can be found in the table.Fig. 7.1:Guideline values for filling and make-up water in accordance withVDI 2035For systems with an above-average specific system volume of50 l/kW, VDI 2035 recommends using fully demineralizedwater and a pH stabiliser to minimize the risk of corrosion in theheat pump and the heating system. ATTENTION!
With fully demineralized water, it is important to ensure thatthe minimum permissible pH value of 7.5 (minimumpermissible value for copper) is complied with. Failure tocomply with this value can result in the heat pump beingdestroyed. Minimum heating water flow rate The minimum heating water flow rate through the heat pumpmust be assured in all operating states of the heating system.This can be accomplished, for example, by installing either adual differential pressureless manifold or an overflow valve. Theprocedure for setting an overflow valve is described in thechapter "Start-up". When the minimum heating water flow rateis undershot, the plate heat exchanger in the refrigeration cir-cuit can freeze, which can lead to total loss of the heat pump.The nominal flow rate is specified depending on the max. flowtemperature in the device information and must be taken intoaccount during planning. With design temperatures below 30 Cin the flow, the design must be based on the max. volume flowwith 5 K spread for A7/W35.The specified nominal flow rate (See “Device Information” onpage 13.) must be guaranteed in every operating status. An in-stalled flow rate switch is used only for switching off the heatpump in the event of an unusual and abrupt drop in the heatingwater flow rate and not to monitor and safeguard the nominalflow rate. NOTE
The use of an overflow valve is only recommended for panelheating and a max. heating water flow of 1.3 m³/h. Systemfaults may result if this is not observed. Antifreeze A method of manual drainage (see illustration) should be pro-vided for heat pumps which are exposed to frost. The antifreezefunction of the heat pump manager is active whenever the heatpump manager and the heat circulating pump are ready for op-eration. If the heat pump is taken out of service or in the eventof a power failure, the system has to be drained. The heating cir-cuit should be operated with a suitable antifreeze if heat pumpsystems are implemented in buildings where a power failurecan not be detected (holiday home).
7.4 Temperature sensor
The following temperature sensors are already installed or mustbe installed additionally: External temperature sensor (R1) supplied (NTC-2) Return temperature sensor (R2) installed (NTC-10) Flow temperature sensor (R9) installed (NTC-10)Total heat output in kWTotal alkaline earths in mol/m³ and/or mmol/lSpecific system volume (VDI 2035) in l/kW < 20 20 < 50 50 Total hardness in °dH < 50 2.0 16.8 11.2< 0.11

7.4.1 Sensor characteristic curves
The temperature sensors to be connected to the heat pump manager must correspond to the sensor characteristic curve illustrated in Fig.7.2 on pag. 9. The only exception is the external temperature sensor included in the scope of supply of the heat pump (see Fig.7.3 on pag. 9) Fig. 7.2:Sensor characteristic curve NTC-10 Fig. 7.3:Sensor characteristic curve, NTC-2 according to DIN 44574 Ex- ternal temperature sensor
7.4.2 Mounting the external temperature
sensor The temperature sensor must be mounted in such a way that all weather conditions are taken into consideration and the measured value is not falsified. mount on the external wall on the north or north-west side where possible Do not install in a “sheltered position” (e.g. in a wall niche or under a balcony) Not in the vicinity of windows, doors, exhaust air vents, external lighting or heat pumps Not to be exposed to direct sunlight at any time of year
It is only necessary to mount the strap-on sensors if they are included in the scope of supply of the heat pump but have not yet been installed. The strap-on sensors can be fitted as pipe-mounted sensors or installed in the immersion sleeve of the compact manifold. Mounting as a pipe-mounted sensor Remove paint, rust and scale from heating pipe. Coat the cleaned surface with heat transfer compound (apply sparingly). Attach the sensor with a hose clip (tighten firmly, as loose sensors can cause malfunctions) and thermally insulate.
7.4.4 Hydraulic distribution system
The compact manifold and the dual differential pressureless manifold function as an interface between the heat pump, the heating distribution system, the buffer tank and, in some cases, even the hot water cylinder. A compact system is used to simplify the installation process, so that a lot of different components do not have to be installed individually. Further information can be found in the relevant installation instructions. Compact manifold The return sensor can remain in the heat pump, or should be installed in the immersion sleeve. The remaining empty space between the sensor and the immersion sleeve must be filled completely with heat transfer compound. Dual differential pressureless manifold In order for the heating circuit pumps of the generator and consumer circuits to supply the flow to the return sensor, this must be installed in the immersion sleeve of the dual differential pressureless manifold.

7.5 Electrical connection
All electrical connection work must be carried out by a trained electrician or a specialist for the specified tasks in accordance with the installation and operating instructions, country-specific installation regulations (e.g. VDE 0100), technical connection conditions of the energy suppliers and supply grid operators (e.g. TAB) and local conditions. To ensure that the frost protection function of the heat pump works properly, the heat pump manager must remain con- nected to the power supply and the flow must be maintained through the heat pump at all times. The switching contacts of the output relay are interference- suppressed. Therefore, depending on the internal resistance of the measuring instrument, a voltage can also be measured when the contacts are open. However, this will be much lower than the line voltage. Extra-low voltage is connected to controller terminals N1-J1 to N1-J11; N1-J19; N1-J20; N1-J23 to N1-J26 and terminal strip X3; X5.1. If, due to a wiring error, the line voltage is mistakenly connected to these terminals, the heat pump manager will be destroyed
7.5.2 Electrical installation
1) The electric supply cable for the output section of the heat
pump (up to 5-core) is fed from the electricity meter of the heat pump via the utility blocking contactor (if required) into the heat pump Connection of the mains cable to the switch box of the heat pump via terminal X1: L1/L2/L3/N/ PE. An all-pole disconnecting device with a contact gap of at least 3 mm (e.g. utility blocking contactor or power contac- tor) and an all-pole circuit breaker with common tripping for all external conductors must be installed in the power supply for the heat pump (tripping current and characteris- tic in compliance with the device information). ATTENTION!
Ensure that there is a clockwise rotating field: With incorrect wiring the starting of the heat pump is prevented. A corresponding warning is indicated on the display of the heat pump manager (adjust wiring).
2) The three-core electric supply cable for the heat pump
manager (heating controller N1) is fed into the heat pump. Connection of the control line to the switch box of the heat pump via terminal X2: L/N/PE. Details on the power consumption of the heat pump are listed on both the product information sheet and the type plate. The (L/N/PE~230 V, 50 Hz) supply cable for the heat pump manager must have a constant voltage. For this reason, it should be tapped upstream from the utility blocking con- tactor or be connected to the household current, as impor- tant protection functions could otherwise be lost during a utility block.
3) The utility blocking contactor(K22) with 3 main contacts
(1/3/5 // 2/4/6) and an auxiliary contact (NO contact 13/
14) should be dimensioned according to the heat pump
output and must be supplied by the customer. The NO contact of the utility blocking contactor (13/14) is looped from terminal strip X3/G to connector terminal X3/ A1. CAUTION! Extra-low voltage!
4) The contactor (K20) for the immersion heater (E10) of
mono energy systems (HG2) should be dimensioned ac- cording to the radiator output and must be supplied by the customer. It is controlled (230 V AC) by the heat pump manager via terminals X2/N and X2/K20.
5) The contactor (K21) for the flange heater (E9) in the hot
water cylinder should be dimensioned according to the ra- diator output and must be supplied by the customer. It is controlled (230 V AC) by the heat pump manager via termi- nals X2/N and X2/K21.
6) The contactors mentioned above in points 3, 4 and 5 are
installed in the electrical distribution system. Mains cables for the installed heaters must be laid and secured in ac- cordance with the valid standards and regulations.
7) All installed electric cables must have permanent wiring.
8) The heat circulating pump (M13) is activated via the con-
tact N1-J13/NO5. The connection points for the pump are X2/M13 and X2/N. When using pumps where the switch- ing capacity exceeds the output, a coupling relay must be interposed.
9) The auxiliary circulating pump (M16) is activated via the
contact N1-J16/NO9. The connection points for the pump are X2/M16 and X2/N. When using pumps where the switching capacity exceeds the output, a coupling relay must be interposed.
10) The domestic hot water circulating pump (M18) is acti-
vated via the contact N1-J13/NO6. The connection points for the pump are X2/M18 and X2/N. When using pumps where the switching capacity exceeds the output, a cou- pling relay must be interposed.
11) The return flow sensor is integrated into the heat pumps
and is connected to the heat pump manager via the control line. The return flow sensor must be installed in the immer- sion sleeve in the manifold only when a dual differential pressureless manifold is used. The single-core wires are then connected to terminals X3/GND and X3/ R2.1. Bridge A-R2 (situated between X3/B2 and X3/1 when delivered) must then be moved to terminals X3/1 and X3/2.
12) The external sensor (R1) is connected to terminals X3/GND
13) The domestic hot water sensor (R3) is included with the
domestic hot water cylinder and is connected to terminals X3/GND and X3/R3.
7.5.3 Connecting an electronically
regulated circulating pump Electronically regulated circulating pumps have high starting currents, which may shorten the service life of the heat pump manager. For this reason, a coupling relay is installed or must be installed between the output of the heat pump manager and the electronically regulated circulating pump. This is not neces- sary if the permissible operating current of 2 A and a maximum starting current of 12 A are not exceeded in the electronically regulated circulating pump or if express approval has been is- sued by the pump manufacturer. ATTENTION!
It is not permitted to connect more than one electronically regulated circulating pump via a relay output.www.gdts.one 452160.66.74 · FD 9912 EN-11 LI 9TU - LI 12TU English 8Start-UP
8.1 General Information
To ensure that start-up is performed correctly, it should only becarried out by an after-sales service technician authorised bythe manufacturer. These measures can also include an addi-tional warranty under certain conditions (see Warranty).
The following items need to be checked prior to start-up: All of the heat pump connections must be established as described in Chapter 6. All valves that could impair the proper flow of the heating water in the heating circuit must be open. The air intake and air outlet paths must be clear. The ventilator must turn in the direction indicated by the arrow. The settings of the Heat pump manager must be adapted to the heating system in accordance with the controller’soperating instructions. Ensure the condensate outflow functions. Both the accessories pack in the switch box and that which is located under the ventilator must be removed.
The heat pump is started up via the heat pump manager. Ad-justments should be made in compliance with the instructions. If an overflow valve is fitted to maintain the minimum heatingwater flow rate, the valve must be adapted to the requirementsof the heating system. Incorrect adjustment can lead to faultyoperation and increased energy consumption. We recommendcarrying out the following procedure to correctly adjust theoverflow valve:Close all of the heating circuits that may also be closed duringoperation (depending on the type of heat pump usage) so thatthe most unfavorable operating state - with respect to thewater flow rate - is achieved. This normally means the heatingcircuits of the rooms on the south and west sides of the build-ing. At least one heating circuit must remain open (e.g. bath-room).The overflow valve should be opened far enough to producethe maximum temperature spread between the heating flowand return flow listed in the following table for the current heatsource temperature. The temperature spread should be meas-ured as close as possible to the heat pump. The heating ele-ment of mono energy systems should be disconnected duringstart up.At hot water temperatures under 7 °C, start-up is not possible.The water in the buffer tank must be heated to a minimum of18 °C with the second heat generator.To ensure a problem-free start-up, the following procedure is tobe implemented:1) Close all consumer circuits.2) Ensure that the heat pump has the correct water flow.3) Use the manager to select the automatic operating mode.4) In the special functions menu, start the "Start-up" program.5) Wait until a return temperature of at least 25 °C has beenreached.6) Now slowly reopen the heating circuit valves in successionso that the heating water flow is constantly raised byslightly opening the respective heating circuit. The heatingwater temperature in the buffer tank must not be allowedto drop below 20 °C during this process. This ensures thatthe heat pump can be defrosted at any time.7) When all heat circuits are fully open and a return tempera-ture of at least 18 °C is maintained, the heat pump start-upis complete. ATTENTION!
To protect the paintwork, avoid leaning or putting objects onthe device. External heat pump parts can be wiped with a dampcloth and domestic cleaner. NOTE
Never use cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid orchloride as these can damage the surfaces.To prevent faults due to sediment in the heat exchanger of theheat pump, ensure that the heat exchanger in the heating sys-tem can not be contaminated. We recommend protecting theevaporator by installing a bird guard in the inlet duct. At least80 % of the cross section of the grating should be open. In theevent that operating malfunctions due to contamination stilloccur, the system should be cleaned as described below.
9.2 Cleaning the Heating System
The integrated dirt trap must be cleaned at regular intervals. The maintenance intervals should be defined according to thedegree of soiling in the system. The filter insert should also becleaned.For cleaning, the heating circuit must be made pressureless inthe vicinity of the dirt trap, the filter compartment unscrewed,and the filter insert removed and cleaned. Assembly carried outin reverse order requires attention to correct assembly of thescreen inserts and tightness of the screw joints.The ingress of oxygen into the heating water circuit may resultin the formation of oxidation products (rust), particularly if steelcomponents are used. These products enter the heating sys-tem via the valves, the circulating pumps and/or plastic pipes. Itis therefore essential - in particular with respect to the piping ofunderfloor heating systems - that only diffusion-proof materialsare used. NOTE
We recommend the installation of a suitable corrosionprotection system to prevent the formation of deposits (e.g.rust) in the condenser of the heat pump.Residue from lubricants and sealants may also contaminate theheating water.In the case of severe contamination leading to a reduction inthe performance of the liquifier in the heat pump, the systemmust be cleaned by a heating technician.Based on current information, we recommend using a 5 %phosphoric acid solution for cleaning purposes. However, ifcleaning needs to be performed more frequently, a 5 % formicacid solution should be used.In either case, the cleaning fluid should be at room tempera-ture. We recommend flushing the heat exchanger in the direc-tion opposite to the normal flow direction.To prevent acidic cleaning agents from entering the heatingsystem circuit, we recommend connecting the flushing devicedirectly to the flow and return flow of the liquifier of the heatpump.It is important that the system be thoroughly flushed using ap-propriate neutralising agents to prevent any damage frombeing caused by cleaning agent residue remaining in the sys- tem. Acids must be used with great care and all relevant regulationsof the employers' liability insurance associations must be ad-hered to.The manufacturer's instructions regarding cleaning agent mustbe complied with at all times.
9.3 Cleaning the Air System
Air ducts, evaporator, ventilator and condensate outflow shouldbe cleaned of contamination (leaves, twigs, etc.) before theheating period. Do this by opening the front of the heat pump.To do this, the heat pump must be opened at the side. The bot-tom section should be opened first, followed by the top section. ATTENTION!
Before opening the device, ensure that all circuits are isolatedfrom the power supply. Remove and rehang the side panel assemblies as described in Chapter 4.To prevent the evaporator and the condensate tray from beingdamaged, do not use hard or sharp objects for cleaning. 10 Faults / Trouble-Shooting This heat pump is a quality product and is designed for trouble-free operation. In the event that a fault should occur, it will beshown on the heat pump manager display. Simply consult theFaults and Trouble-shooting page in the operating instructionsof the heat pump manager. If you cannot correct the fault your-self, please contact your after-sales service technician. ATTENTION!
Any work on the heat pump may only be performed byauthorised and qualified after-sales service technicians. 11 Decommissioning/Disposal Before removing the heat pump, disconnect it from the powersource and close all valves. The deinstallation of the heat pumpmust be performed by technical personnel. Observe all environ-mentally-relevant requirements regarding the recovery, recy-cling and disposal of materials and components in accordancewith all applicable standards. Particular attention should be paid to the proper disposal of refrigerants and refrigeration oils.www.gdts.one 452160.66.74 · FD 9912 EN-13 LI 9TU - LI 12TU English 12 Device Information 1 Type and order code LI 9TU LI 12TU 2 Design
