Pump_o (10) should be controlled by outdoor unit and connect to corresponding port in the outdoor unit(refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For outside circulation pump P_o).

Unit operation and space heating:

When a room thermostat is connected to the unit and when there is a heating request from the room thermostat, the unit will start operating to achieve the target water flow temperature as set on the user interface. When the room temperature is above the thermostat set point in the heating mode, the unit will stop operating. The circulation pump (1.7) and (10) will also stop running. The room thermostat is used as a switch here.

NOTE

Make sure to connect the thermostat wires to the correct terminals, method B should be selected (see "For room thermostat" in 9.7.6 connection for other components). To correctly configure the ROOM THERMOSTAT in the FOR SERVICEMAN mode see 10.7 Field settings/ROOM THERMOSTAT.

8.2 Application 2

Space heating without room thermostat connected to the unit. Domestic hot water tank is connected to the unit, and the tank is with solar heating system.

NOTE

The volume of balance tank(8) should be greater than 40L. The drain valve (6) should be installed at the lowest position in the system. Pump(10) should be controlled by outdoor unit and connect to corresponding port in the outdoor unit(refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For outside circulation pump P_o).

• Circulation pump operation

The circulation pump (1.7) and (10) will operate as long as the unit is on for space heating.

The circulation pump (1.7) will operate as long as the unit is on for heating domestic hot water (DHW).

- Space heating

1) The unit (1) will operate to achieve the target water flow temperature set on the wired controller.
2) The bypass valve should be selected so that at all times the minimum water flow as mentioned in 9.4 Water piping is guaranteed.

• Domestic water heating

1) When the domestic water heating mode is enabled (either manually by the user, or automatically through scheduling) the target domestic hot water temperature will be achieved by a combination of the heat exchanger coil and the electrical booster heater (when the booster heater in the tank is set to YES).
2) When the domestic hot water temperature is below the user configured set point, the 3-way valve will be activated to heat the domestic water by means of the heat pump. If there is a huge demand for hot water or a high hot water temperature setting, the booster heater (12.3) can provide auxiliary heating.

CAUTION

Make sure to fit the 3-way valve correctly. For more details, refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For 3-way valve SV1.

NOTE

The unit can be configured so that at low outdoor temperatures, water is exclusively heated by the booster heater. This assures that the full capacity of the heat pump is available for space heating.

Details on domestic hot water tank configuration for low outdoor temperatures (T4DHWMIN) can be found in 10.7 Field settings/How to set the DHW MODE.

8.3 Application 3

Space cooling and heating application with a room thermostat suitable for heating/cooling changeover when connected to the unit. Heating is provided through floor heating loops and fan coil units. Cooling is provided through the fan coil units only. Domestic hot water is provided through the domestic hot water tank which is connected to the unit.

NOTE

The volume of balance tank(8) should be greater than 40L. The drain valve (6) should be installed at the lowest position of the system. Pump(10) should be controlled by outdoor unit and connect to corresponding port in the outdoor unit (refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For outside circulation pump P_o).

- Pump operation and space heating and cooling

The unit will switch to either heating or cooling mode according to the setting of room thermostat. When space heating/cooling is requested by the room thermostat (5), the pump will start operating and the unit (1) will switch to heating mode/cooling mode. The unit (1) will operate to achieve the target cold/hot water leaving temperature. In the cooling mode, the motorized 3-way valve (19) will close to prevent cold water running through the floor heating loops (FHL).

CAUTION

Make sure to connect the thermostat wires to the correct terminals and to configure the ROOM THERMOSTAT in the wired controller correctly (see 10.7 Field settings/ROOM THERMOSTAT). Wiring of the room thermostat should follow method A as described in 9.7.6 connection for other components/For room thermostat.

Wiring of the 3-way valve (19) is different for a NC (normal closed) valve and a NO (normal open) valve! Make sure to connect to the correct terminal numbers as detailed on the wiring diagram.

The ON/OFF setting of the heating/cooling operation cannot be done on the user interface, the target outlet water temperature should be set in the user interface.

• Domestic water heating

Domestic water heating is as described in 8.2 Application 2.

8.4 Application 4

Space heating with an auxiliary boiler (alternating operation).

Space heating application by either the unit or by an auxiliary boiler connected in the system.

  • The unit controlled contact (also called "permission signal for the auxiliary boiler") is determined by the outdoor temperature (thermistor located at the outdoor unit). See 10.7 Field settings/OTHER HEATING SOURCE.
  • Bivalent operation is possible for both space heating operation and domestic water heating operation.
  • If the auxiliary boiler only provides heat for space heating, the boiler must be integrated in the piping work and in the field wiring according to the illustration for application a.
  • If the auxiliary boiler is also providing heat for domestic hot water, the boiler can be integrated in the piping work and in the field wiring according to the illustration for application b. In this condition, the unit can sent ON/OFF signal to boiler in heating mode, but the boiler control itself in DHW mode.

CAUTION

Be sure that the boiler and the integration of the boiler in the system is in accordance with relevant local laws and regulations.

NOTE

The volume of balance tank(8) should be greater than 40L. The drain valve (6) should be installed at the lowest position of the system. Temperature sensor T1 must be installed at the outlet of AHS, and connect to the corresponding port in the main control board of hydraulic module(refer to 9.3.1 Main control board of hydraulic module), pump(10) should be controlled by outdoor unit and connect to corresponding port in the outdoor unit(refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For outside circulation pump P_o).

Operation

When heating is required, either the unit or the boiler starts operating, depending on the outdoor temperature (refer to 10.7 field setting/OTHER HEATING SOURCE).

  • As the outdoor temperature is measured via the outdoor unit air thermistor, make sure to install the outdoor unit in the shade, so that it is not influenced by the sun's heat.
  • Frequent switching can cause corrosion of the boiler at an early stage. Contact the boiler manufacturer,

  • During heating operation of the unit, the unit will operate to achieve the target water flow temperature set on the user interface. When weather dependent operation is active, the water temperature is determined automatically depending on the outdoor temperature.

  • During heating operation of the boiler, the boiler will operate to achieve the target water flow temperature set on the user interface.
  • Never set the target water flow temperature set point on the user interface above (60°C).

NOTE

Make sure to correctly configure FOR SERVICEMAN in the user interface. Refer to 10.7 Field settings/Other heating source.

CAUTION

Ensure that return water to the heat exchanger does not exceed 60^ C. Never put the target water flow temperature set point on the user interface above 60^ C.

Make sure that the non-return valves (field supply) are correctly installed in the system.

The supplier will not be held liable for any damage resulting from failure to observe this rule.

8.5 Application 5

Dual setpoint function application with two room thermostat connect to the outdoor unit.

  • Space heating with two room thermostat application through floor heating loops and fan coil units. The floor heating loops and fan coil units require different operating water temperatures.
  • The floor heating loops require a lower water temperature in heating mode compared to fan coil units. To achieve these two set points, a mixing station is used to adapt the water temperature according to requirements of the floor heating loops. The fan coil units are directly connected to the unit water circuit and the floor heating loops are after the mixing station. The mixing station is controlled by the unit (or field supply, controls itself).
    • The operation and configuration of the field water circuit is the responsibility of the installer.
  • We only offer a dual set point control function. This function allows two set points to be generated. Depending on the required water temperature (floor heating loops and/or fan coil units are required). More details refer to 10.7 field setting /ROOM THERMOSTAT.

NOTE

The wiring of room thermostat 5A(for fan coil units) and 5B(for floor eating loops) should follow 'method C' as described in 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For room thermostat, and the thermostat which connect to port 'C' (in the outdoor unit) should be placed on the zone where floor heating loops is installed(zone B), the other one connect to port 'H' should be placed on the zone where fan coil units are installed(zone A).

NOTE

  • The volume of balance tank(8) should be greater than 40L. The drain valve (6) should be installed at the lowest position of the system. Pump(10) and pump(23.1) should be controlled by outdoor unit and connect to corresponding port in the outdoor unit(refer to 9.7.6 Connection for other components/For outside circulation pump P_o and For tank loop pump P_d and mix pump P_c).
  • The advantage of the dual set point control is that the heat pump will/can operate at the lowest required water flow temperature when only floor heating is required. Higher water flow temperatures are only required in case fan coil units are operating. This results in better heat pump performance.

• Pump operation and space heating

The pump (1.7) and (10) will operate when there is request for heating from A and / or B. Pump (23.1) will operate only when there is request for heating from B. The outdoor unit will start operating to achieve the target water flow temperature. The target water leaving temperature depends on which room thermostat is requesting heating.

When the room temperature of both zones is above the thermostat set point, the outdoor unit and pump will stop operating.

NOTE

  • Make sure to correctly configure the room thermostat installation on the user interface. Refer to "10.7 Field settings/ROOM THERMOSTAT".
  • It is the installers' responsibility to ensure that no unwanted situations can occur (e.g. extremely high temperature water going towards floor heating loops, etc.)
  • The supplier does not offer any type of mixing station. Dual set point control only provides the possibility to use two set points.
  • When only zone A requests heating, zone B will be fed with water at a temperature equal to the first set point. This can lead to unwanted heating in zone B.
  • When only zone B requests heating, the mixing station will be fed with water at a temperature equal to the second set point. Depending on the control of the mixing station, the floor heating loop can still receive water at a temperature equal to the set point of the mixing station.
  • Be aware that the actual water temperature through the floor heating loops depends on the control and setting of the mixing station.

8.6 Application 6

Dual setpoint function application without room thermostat connect to the outdoor unit.

  • Heating is provided through floor heating loops and fan coil units. The floor heating loops and fan coil units require different operating water temperatures.
  • The floor heating loops require a lower water temperature in heating mode compared to fan coil units. To achieve these two set points, a mixing station is used to adapt the water temperature according to requirements of the floor heating loops. The fan coil units are directly connected to the unit water circuit and the floor heating loops are after the mixing station. The mixing station is controlled by the unit (or buy from the market, controlled by itself).

• The operation and configuration of the field water circuit is the responsibility of the installer.
• We only offer a dual set point control function. This function allows two set points to be generated. Depending on the required water temperature (floor heating loops and/or fan coil units are required) the first set point or second set point can be activated. See 10.7 field setting /TEMP. TYPE SETTING.

NOTE

  • The volume of balance tank(8) should be greater than 40L. The drain valve (6) should be installed at the lowest position of the system.
  • As the temperature sensor attached in the user interface is used to detect the room temperature, the user interface (4) should be placed in the room where floor heating loops and fan coil units is installed and away from the heating source. Correct configuration should be applied in the user interface (refer to 10.7 field settings/TEMP. TYPE SETTING). The first setpoint is water temperature which can be set on the main page of user interface, the second setpoint is calculated from climate related curves, the target outlet water temperature is the higher one of these two setpoints. The unit will turn off when the room temperature reaches the target temperature.

• Pump operation and space heating

The pump (1.7) and (10) will operate when there is request for heating from A and / or B. Pump (23.1) will operate when the room temperature of zone B is lower than the set point which set in the user interface. The outdoor unit will start operating to achieve the target water flow temperature.

9.4 Water piping

All piping lengths and distances have been taken into consideration.

RequirementsValve
The maximum allowed thermistor cable length is 20m. This is the maximum allowable distance between the domestic hot water tank and the unit (only for installations with a domestic hot water tank). The thermistor cable supplied with the domestic hot water tank is 10m in length. In order to optimize efficiency we recommend installing the 3-way valve and the domestic hot water tank as close as possible to the unit.Thermistor cable length minus 2m

NOTE

If the installation is equipped with a domestic hot water tank (field supply), please refer to the domestic hot water tank Installation And Owner's Manual. If there is no glycol (anti-freeze) in the system there is a power supply or pump failure, drain the system (as shown in the figure below).

NOTE

If water is not removed from the system in freezing weather when unit is not used. The frozen water may damage the water circle parts.

9.4.1 Check the water circuit

The units are equipped with a water inlet and outlet for connection to a water circuit.

The units should only be connected to closed water circuits. Connection to an open water circuit would lead to excessive corrosion of the water piping. Only materials complying with all applicable legislation should be used.

Example:

    J --> M["FHL2"]
    K --> N["FHLn"]
    L --> O["11 Valve"]
    M --> P["17 Valve"]

Before continuing installation of the unit, check the following:

• The maximum water pressure ≤ 3 bar.
• The maximum water temperature ≤ 70°C according to safety device setting.
• Always use materials that are compatible with the water used in the system and with the materials used in the unit.
- Ensure that components installed in the field piping can withstand the water pressure and temperature.
- Drain taps must be provided at all low points of the system to permit complete drainage of the circuit during maintenance.
- Air vents must be provided at all high points of the system. The vents should be located at points that are easily accessible for service. An automatic air purge is provided inside the unit. Check that this air purge valve is not tightened so that automatic release of air in the water circuit is possible.

9.4.2 Water volume and expansion vessel pre-pressure checks

The units are equipped with an expansion vessel (models: 8L) that has a default pre-pressure of 1.0 bar. To assure proper operation of the unit, the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel might need to be adjusted.

1) Check that the total water volume in the installation, excluding the internal water volume of the unit, is at least 40L. Refer to 14 Technical specifications to find the total internal water volume of the unit.

NOTE

• In most applications this minimum water volume will be satisfactory.
• In critical processes or in rooms with a high heat load though, extra water might be required.
- When circulation in each space heating loop is controlled by remotely controlled valves, it is important that this minimum water volume is kept even if all the valves are closed.

2) Using the table below, determine if the expansion vessel pre-pressure requires adjustment.
3) Using the table and instructions below, determine if the total water volume in the installation is below the maximum allowed water volume.

Installation height difference(*)Water volume ≤230 LWater volume >230 L
≤7 mNo pre-pressuread justment required.Actions required:• Pre-pressure must be increased, calculate according to"Calculating the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel" below.• Check if the water volume is lower than maximum allowed water volume (use graph below)
>7 mActions required:• Pre-pressure must be increased, calculate according to"Calculating the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel" below.• Check if the water volume is lower than maximum allowed water volume (use graph below)Expansion vessel of the unit too small for the installation.

^a Height difference is between the highest point of the water circuit and the outdoor unit's expansion tank. Unless the unit is located at the highest point of the system, in which case the installation height difference is considered to be zero.

Calculating the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel

The pre-pressure (Pg) to be set depends on the maximum installation height difference (H) and is calculated as follows: Pg(bar)=(H(m)/10+0.3) bar

Checking the maximum allowed water volume

To determine the maximum allowed water volume in the entire circuit, proceed as follows:

  • Determine the calculated pre-pressure (Pg) for the corresponding maximum water volume using the graph below.
  • Check that the total water volume in the entire water circuit is lower than this value. If this is not the case, the expansion vessel inside the unit is too small for the installation.

Vivax HPM-61CH180AERIs R32-3 - Checking the maximum allowed water volume - 1

line | Max. water volume [L] | Pre-pressure [bar] | | --------------------- | ------------------ | | 0 | 2.8 | | 50 | 2.6 | | 100 | 2.3 | | 150 | 2.0 | | 200 | 1.7 | | 250 | 1.4 | | 300 | 1.1 | | 350 | 0.8 |

Pre-pressure = pre-pressure of the expansion vessel Maximum water volume = maximum water volume in the system

A1 System without glycol

A2 System without 25% propylene glycol

Example 1:

The unit is installed 5m below the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 100 L. In this example, no action or adjustment is required.

Example 2:

The unit is installed at the highest point in the water circuit. The total water volume in the water circuit is 250 L.

Result:

  • Since 250 L is more than 230 L, the pre-pressure must be decreased (see table above).
    • The required pre-pressure is: Pg(bar) = (H(m)/10+0.3) bar = (0/10+0.3) bar = 0.3 bar
  • The corresponding maximum water volume can be read from the graph: approximately 310L.
  • Since the total water volume (250L) is below the maximum water volume (310L), the expansion vessel suffices for the installation.

Setting the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel

When it is required to change the default pre-pressure of the expansion vessel (1.0 bar), following guidelines:

  • Use only dry nitrogen to set the expansion vessel pre-pressure.
  • Inappropriate setting of the expansion vessel pre-pressure will lead to malfunctioning of the system. Pre-pressure should only be adjusted by a licensed installer.

Selecting the additional expansion vessel

If the expansion vessel of the unit is too small for the installation, an additional expansion vessel is needed.

  • calculate the pre-pressure of the expansion vessel: Pg(bar) = (H(m) / 10 + 0.3) bar the expansion vessel equipped in the unit should adjust the pre-pressure also.
  • calculate the volume needed of the additional expansion vessel: V1=0.0693*Vwater/(2.5-Pg)-V0 Vwater is volume of water in the system, V0 is volume of expansion vessel which the unit is equipped(8L).

9.4.3 Water circuit connection

Water connections must be made correctly in accordance with labels on the outdoor unit, with respect to the water inlet and water outlet.

CAUTION

Be careful not to deform the unit's piping by using excessive force when connecting the piping. Deforming the piping can cause the unit to malfunction.

If air, moisture or dust gets in the water circuit, problems may occur. Therefore, always take into account the following when connecting the water circuit:

• Use clean pipes only.
- Hold the pipe end downwards when removing burrs.
- Cover the pipe end when inserting it through a wall to prevent dust and dirt entering.
- Use a good thread sealant for sealing the connections. The sealing must be able to withstand the pressures and temperatures of the system.
- When using non-copper metallic piping, be sure to insulate two kind of materials from each other to prevent galvanic corrosion.

- For copper is a soft material, use appropriate tools for connecting the water circuit. Inappropriate tools will cause damage to the pipes.

Vivax HPM-61CH180AERIs R32-3 - CAUTION - 1

NOTE

The unit is only to be used in a closed water system. Application in an open water circuit can lead to excessive corrosion of the water piping:

  • Never use Zn-coated parts in the water circuit. Excessive corrosion of these parts may occur as copper piping is used in the unit's internal water circuit.
  • When using a 3-way valve in the water circuit. Preferably choose a ball type 3-way valve to guarantee full separation between the domestic hot water and floor heating water circuit.
  • When using a 3-way valve or a 2-way valve in the water circuit. The recommended maximum changeover time of the valve should be less than 60 seconds.

9.4.4 Water circuit anti-freeze protection

Ice formation can cause damage to the hydraulic system. As the outdoor unit may be exposed to sub-zero temperatures, care must be taken to prevent freezing of the system.

All internal hydronic parts are insulated to reduce heat loss. Insulation must also be added to the field piping.

The software contains special functions using the heat pump to protect the entire system against freezing. When the temperature of the water flow in the system drops to a certain value, the unit will heat the water, either using the heat pump, the electric heating tap, or the backup heater. The freeze protection function will turn off only when the temperature increases to a certain value.

In event of a power failure, the above features would not protect the unit from freezing.

Do one of the following to protect the water circuit against freezing:

  • Add glycol to the water. Glycol lowers the freezing point of the water.
  • Install freeze protection valves. Freeze protection valves drain the water from the system before it can freeze.

NOTE

If you add glycol to the water, do NOT install freeze protection valves. Possible consequence: Glycol leaking out of the freeze protection valves.

1. Freeze protection by glycol

About freeze protection by glycol

Adding glycol to the water lowers the freezing point of water.

WARNING

Ethylene glycol is toxic.

WARNING

Due to the presence of glycol, corrosion of the system is possible. Uninhibited glycol will turn acidic under the influence of oxygen. This process is accelerated by the presence of copper and high temperatures. The acidic uninhibited glycol attacks metal surfaces and forms galvanic corrosion cells that cause severe damage to the system. Therefore it is important that:

  • the water treatment is correctly executed by a qualified water specialist,
  • a glycol with corrosion inhibitors is selected to counteract acids formed by the oxidation of glycols,
  • no automotive glycol is used because their corrosion inhibitors have a limited lifetime and contain silicates which can foul or plug the system,
  • galvanized pipes are NOT used in glycol systems since the presence may lead to the precipitation of certain components in the glycol's corrosion inhibitor.

NOTE

Glycol absorbs water from its environment. Therefore do NOT add glycol that has been exposed to air. Leaving the cap off the glycol container causes the concentration of water to increase. The glycol concentration is then lower than assumed. As a result, the hydraulic components might freeze up after all. Take preventive actions to ensure a minimal exposure of the glycol to air.

Types of glycol

The types of glycol that can be used depend on whether the system contains a domestic hot water tank:

If the system contains a domestic hot water tank, then only use propylene glycol ^* ;

If the system does NOT contain a domestic hot water tank, then you can use either propylene glycol* or ethylene glycol;

*Propylene glycol, including the necessary inhibitors, classified as Category III according to EN1717.

Required concentration of glycol

The required concentration of glycol depends on the lowest expected outdoor temperature, and on whether you want to protect the system from bursting or from freezing. To prevent the system from freezing, more glycol is required.

Add glycol according to the table below:

INFORMATION

  • Protection against bursting: the glycol will prevent the piping from bursting, but NOT the liquid inside the piping from freezing.
  • Protection against freezing: the glycol will prevent the liquid inside the piping from freezing.

Vivax HPM-61CH180AERIs R32-3 - INFORMATION - 1

NOTE

  • The required concentration might differ depending on the type of glycol. ALWAYS compare the requirements from the table above with the specifications provided by the glycol manufacturer. If necessary, meet the requirements set by the glycol manufacturer.
  • If the liquid in the system is frozen, the pump will NOT be able to start. Mind that if you only prevent the system from bursting, the liquid inside might still freeze.
  • When water is at standstill inside the system, the system is very likely to freeze and get damaged.

2. Freeze protection by freeze protection valves

About freeze protection valves

When no glycol is added to the water, you can use freeze protection valves to drain the water from the system before it can freeze.

• Install freeze protection valves (field supply) at all lowest points of the field piping.
- Normally closed valves (located indoors near the piping entry/exit points) can prevent that all water from indoor piping is drained when the freeze protection valves open.

Vivax HPM-61CH180AERIs R32-3 - About freeze protection valves - 1

NOTE

Water may enter into the flow switch and cannot be drained out and may freeze when the temperature is low enough. The flow switch should be removed and dried, then can be reinstalled in the unit.

Counterclock Wise rotation, remove the flow switch.

Drying the flow switch completely.

Also refer to "10.3 Pre-operation checks/Checks before initial start-up".

Keep dry

9.5 Adding water

Connect the water supply to the fill valve and open the valve.

Make sure the automatic air purge valve is open (at least 2 turns).

Fill with water until the manometer indicates a pressure of approximately 2.0 bar. Remove air in the circuit as much as possible using the air purge valves. Air in the water circuit could lead to malfunction of the backup electric heater.

Do not fasten the black plastic cover on the vent valve at the topside of the unit when the system is running. Open air purge valve, tum anticlockWise at least 2 full turns to release air from the system.

Vivax HPM-61CH180AERIs R32-3 - Adding water - 1

natural_image Pure mechanical assembly diagram without any text, numbers, or symbols

NOTE

During filling, it might not be possible to remove all air in the system. Remaining air will be removed through the automatic air purge valves during the first operating hours of the system. Topping up the water afterwards might be required.

  • The water pressure indicated on the manometer will vary depending on the water temperature (higher pressure at higher water temperature). However, at all times water pressure should remain above 0.3 bar to avoid air entering the circuit.
    • The unit might drain-off too much water through the pressure relief valve.
    • Water quality should be complied with EN 98/83 EC Directives.
    Detailed water quality condition can be found in EN 98/83 EC Directives.

9.6 Water piping insulation

The complete water circuit including all piping, water piping must be insulated to prevent condensation during cooling operation and reduction of the heating and cooling capacity as well as prevention of freezing of the outside water piping during winter. The insulation material should at least of B1 fire resistance rating and complies with all applicable legislation. The thickness of the sealing materials must be at least 13 mm with thermal conductivity 0.039 W/mK in order to prevent freezing on the outside water piping.

If the outdoor ambient temperature is higher than 30^ C and the humidity is higher than RH 80%, then the thickness of the sealing materials should be at least 20 mm in order to avoid condensation on the surface of the seal.

9.7 Field wiring

WARNING

A main switch or other means of disconnection, having a contact separation in all poles, must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with relevant local laws and regulations. Switch off the power supply before making any connections. Use only copper wires. Never squeeze bundled cables and make sure they do not come in contact with the piping and sharp edges. Make sure no external pressure is applied to the terminal connections. All field wiring and components must be installed by a licensed electrician and must comply with relevant local laws and regulations.

The field wiring must be carried out in accordance with the wiring diagram supplied with the unit and the instructions given below.

Be sure to use a dedicated power supply. Never use a power supply shared by another appliance.

Be sure to establish a ground. Do not ground the unit to a utility pipe, surge protector, or telephone ground. Incomplete grounding may cause electrical shock.

Be sure to install a ground fault circuit interrupter (30 mA). Failure to do so may cause electrical shock.

Be sure to install the required fuses or circuit breakers.

9.7.1 Precautions on electrical wiring work

• Fix cables so that cables do not make contact with the pipes (especially on the high pressure side).
- Secure the electrical wiring with cable ties as shown in figure so that it does not come in contact with the piping, particularly on the high-pressure side.
• Make sure no external pressure is applied to the terminal connectors.
- When installing the ground fault circuit interrupter make sure that it is compatible with the inverter (resistant to high frequency electrical noise) to avoid unnecessary opening of the ground fault circuit interrupter.

NOTE

The ground fault circuit interrupter must be a high-speed type breaker of 30 mA (<0.1 s).

- This unit is equipped with an inverter. Installing a phase advancing capacitor not only will reduce the power factor improvement effect, but also may cause abnormal heating of the capacitor due to high-frequency waves. Never install a phase advancing capacitor as it could lead to an accident.

Field wiring guidelines

- Most field wiring on the unit is to be made on the terminal block inside the switch box. To gain access to the terminal block, remove the switch box service panel.

WARNING

Switch off all power including the unit power supply and backup heater and domestic hot water tank power supply (if applicable) before removing the switch box service panel.

• Fix all cables using cable ties.
• A dedicated power circuit is required for the backup heater.
- Installations equipped with a domestic hot water tank (field supply) require a dedicated power circuit for the booster heater. Please refer to the domestic hot water tank Installation & Owner's Manual. Secure the wiring in the order shown below.
- Lay out the electrical wiring so that the front cover does not rise up when doing wiring work and attach the front cover securely.
• Follow the electric wiring diagram for electrical wiring works (the electric wiring diagrams are located on the rear side of door 2.
• Install the wires and fix the cover firmly so that the cover may be fit in properly.

9.7.3 Precautions on wiring of power supply

  • Use a round crimp-style terminal for connection to the power supply terminal board. In case it cannot be used due to unavoidable reasons, be sure to observe the following instructions.
  • Do not connect different gauge wires to the same power supply terminal. (Loose connections may cause overheating.)
  • When connecting wires of the same gauge, connect them according to the figure below.

There are three methods for connecting the thermostat cable (as described in the picture above) and it depends on the application.

- Method A

RT can control heating and cooling individually, like the controller for 4-pipe FCU. When the hydraulic module is connected with the external temperature controller, user interface FOR SERVICEMAN set THERMOSTAT and ROOM MODE SETTING to YES:

A.1 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC between C and N, the unit operates in the cooling mode.
A.2 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC between H and N, the unit operates in the heating mode.
A.3 When unit detect voltage is 0VAC for both side(C-N, H-N) the unit stop working for space heating or cooling.
A.4 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC for both side(C-N, H-N) the unit working in cooling mode.

- Method B

RT provide the switch signal to unit. user interface FOR SERVICEMAN set ROOM THERMOSTAT and MODE SETTING to YES:

B.1 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC between H and N, unit turn on.
B.2 When unit detect voltage is 0VAC between H and N, unit turn off.

NOTE

When ROOM THERMOSTAT is set to YES, the indoor temperature sensor Ta can't be set to valid, unit running only according to T1.

- Method C

Hydraulic module is connected with two external temperature controllers, while user interface FOR SERVICEMAN set DUAL ROOM THERMOSTAT to YES:

C.1 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC between H and N, the MAIN side turn on. When unit detect voltage is 0VAC between H and N, the MAIN side turn off.
C.2 When unit detect voltage is 230VAC between C and N, the ROOM side turn on according to climate temp curve. When unit detect voltage is 0V between C and N, the ROOM side turn off.
C.3 When H-N and C-N are detected as 0VAC, unit turn off.
C.4 when H-N and C-N are detected as 230VAC, both MAIN and ROOM side turn on.

NOTE

  • The wiring of the thermostat should correspond to the settings of the user interface. Refer to 10.7 Field setting/Room Thermostat.
  • Power supply of machine and room thermostat must be connected to the same Neutral Line and (L2) Phase Line(for 3-phase unit only).

11 TEST RUN AND FINAL CHECKS

The installer is obliged to verify correct operation of unit after installation.

11.1 Final checks

Before switching on the unit, read following recommendations:

- When the complete installation and all necessary settings have been carried out, close all front panels of the unit and refit the unit cover.

• The service panel of the switch box may only be opened by a licensed electrician for

NOTE

That during the first running period of the unit, required power input may be higher than stated on the nameplate of the unit. This phenomenon originates from the compressor that needs elapse of a 50 hours run in period before reaching smooth operation and stable power consumption.

11.2 Test run operation (manually)

If required, the installer can perform a manual test run operation at any time to check correct operation of air purge, heating, cooling and domestic water heating, refer to 10.7 Field settings/test run.

12 MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

In order to ensure optimal availability of the unit, a number of checks and inspections on the unit and the field wiring have to be carried out at regular intervals.

This maintenance needs to be carried out by your local technician.

In order to ensure optimal availability of the unit, a number of checks and inspections on the unit and the field wiring have to be carried out at regular intervals.

This maintenance has to be carried out by your local technician.

DANGER

ELECTRIC SHOCK

  • Before carrying out any maintenance or repairing activity, must switch off the power supply on the supply panel.
  • Do not touch any live part for 10 minutes after the power supply is turned off.
  • The crank heater of compressor may operate even in standby.
  • Please note that some sections of the electric component box are hot.
    • Forbid touch any conductive parts.
  • Forbid rinse the unit. It may cause electric shock or fire.
  • Forbid leave the unit unattended when service panel is removed.

The following checks must be performed at least once a year by qualified person.

  • Water pressure
    Check the water pressure, if it is below 1 bar, fill water to the system.
  • Water filter
    Clean the water filter.

• Water pressure relief valve

Check for correct operation of the pressure relief valve by turning the black knob on the valve counter-clockWise:

-If you do not hear a clacking sound, contact your local dealer.

-In case the water keeps running out of the unit, close both the water inlet and outlet shut-off valves first and then contact your local dealer.

• Pressure relief valve hose
Check that the pressure relief valve hose is positioned appropriately to drain the water.
• Backup heater vessel insulation cover
Check that the backup heater insulation cover is fastened tightly around the backup heater vessel.
- Domestic hot water tank pressure relief valve (field supply) Applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank. Check for correct operation of the pressure relief valve on the domestic hot water tank.
• Domestic hot water tank booster heater
Applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank. It is advisable to remove lime buildup on the booster heater to extend its life span, especially in regions with hard water. To do so, drain the domestic hot water tank, remove the booster heater from the domestic hot water tank and immerse in a bucket (or similar) with lime-removing product for 24 hours.

- Unit switch box

-Carry out a thorough visual inspection of the switch box and look for obvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring.

-Check for correct operation of contactors with an ohm meter. All contacts of these contactors must be in open position.

Use of glycol (Refer to 9.3 Water pipework Caution: "Use of glycol") Document the glycol concentration and the pH-value in the system at least once a year.

-A PH-value below 8.0 indicates that a significant portion of the inhibitor has been depleted and that more inhibitor needs to be added.

-When the PH-value is below 7.0 then oxidation of the glycol occurred, the system should be drained and flushed thoroughly before severe damage occurs.

Make sure that the disposal of the glycol solution is done in accordance with relevant local laws and regulations.

13 TROUBLE SHOOTING

This section provides useful information for diagnosing and correcting certain troubles which may occur in the unit.

This troubleshooting and related corrective actions may only be carried out by your local technician.

13.1 General guidelines

Before starting the troubleshooting procedure, carry out a thorough visual inspection of the unit and look for obvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring.

WARNING

When carrying out an inspection on the switch box of the unit, always make sure that the main switch of the unit is switched off.

When a safety device was activated, stop the unit and find out why the safety device was activated before resetting it. Under no circumstances can safety devices be bridged or changed to a value other than the factory setting. If the cause of the problem cannot be found, call your local dealer.

If the pressure relief valve is not working correctly and is to be replaced, always reconnect the flexible hose attached to the pressure relief valve to avoid water dripping out of the unit!

NOTE

For problems related to the optional solar kit for domestic water heating, refer to the troubleshooting in the Installation & Owner's manual for that kit.

13.2 General symptoms

Symptom 1: The unit is turned on but the unit is not heating or cooling as expected

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
The temperature setting is not correct.Check the controller set point.T4HMAX,T4HMIN in heat mode.T4CMAX,T4CMIN in cool mode.T4DHWMAX,T4DHWMIN in DHW mode.
The water flow is too low.Check that all shut off valves of the water circuit are completely open.Check if the water filter needs cleaning.Make sure there is no air in the system (purge air).Check on the manometer that there is sufficient water pressure.The water pressure must be>1 bar (water is cold).Make sure that the expansion vessel is not broken.Check that the resistance in the water circuit is not too high for the pump.
The water volume in the installation is too low.Make sure that the water volume in the installation is above the minimum required value (refer to "9,3 water piping/ Checking the water volume and expansion vessel pre-pressure").

Symptom 2: The unit is turned on but the compressor is not starting (space heating or domestic water heating)

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
The unit must start up out of its operation range (the water temperature is too low).In case of low water temperature, the system utilizes the backup heater to reach the minimum water temperature first ( 12^ ).Check that the backup heater power supply is correct.Check that the backup heater thermal fuse is closed.Check that the backup heater thermal protector is not activated.Check that the backup heater contactors are not broken.

Symptom 3: Pump is making noise (cavitation)

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
There is air in the system.Purge air.
Water pressure at pump inlet is too low.Check on the manometer that there is sufficient water pressure.The water pressure must be > 1 bar (water is cold).Check that the manometer is not broken.Check that the expansion vessel is not broken.Check that the setting of the pre- pressure of the expansion vessel is correct (refer to "9.3 water piping/Checking the water volume and expansion vessel pre-pressure").

Symptom 4: The water pressure relief valve opens

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
The expansion vessel isbroken.Replace the expansion vessel.
The filling water pressure in the installation is higher than 0.3MPa.Make sure that the filling water pressure in the installation is about 0.15~0.20MPa (refer to "9.3 water piping/Checking the water volume and expansion vessel pre-pressure").

Symptom 5: The water pressure relief valve leaks

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
Dirt is blocking the water pressure relief valve outlet.Check for correct operation of the pressure relief valve by turning the red knob on the valve counter clockwise:If you do not hear a clacking sound, contact your local dealer.In case the water keeps running out of the unit, close both the water inlet and outlet shut-off valves first and then contact your local dealer.

Symptom 6: Space heating capacity shortage at low outdoor temperatures

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
Backup heater operation is not activated.Check that the "OTHER HEATING SOURCE/ BACKUP HEATER"is enabled, see "10.7 Field settings" Check whether or not the thermal protector of the backup heater has been activated (refer to "Controls parts for backup heater(IBH)"). Check if booster heater is running, the backup heater and booster heater can't operate simultaneously.
Too much heat pump capacity is used for heating domestic hot water (applies only to installations with a domestic hot water tank).Check that the "t_DHWHP_MAX" and "t_DHWHP_RESTRICT" are configured appropriately:Make sure that the "DHW PRIORITY" in the user interface is disabled.Enable the "T4_TBH_ON" in the user interface/FOR SERVICEMAN to activate the booster heater for domestic water heating.

Symptom 7: Heat mode can't change to DHW mode immediately

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
Volume of tank is too small and the location of water temperature probe not high enoughSet "dT1S5" to 20°C, and set "t_DHWHP_RESTRICT" to minimum value.Set dT1SH to 2°C.Enable TBH, and TBH should be controlled by the outdoor unit.If AHS(boiler) is available, turn boiler on first, if requirement for turn heat pump on is fulfilled, the heat pump will turn on.If both TBH and AHS are not available, try to change the position of T5 probe(refer to 2 General information/Domestic hot water tank).

Symptom 8: DHW mode can't change to Heat mode immediately

POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTVE ACTION
Heat exchanger for space heating not big enoughSet "t_DHWHP_MAX" to minimum value, the suggested value is 60min.If circulating pump out of unit is not controlled by unit, try to connect it to the unit.Add 3-way valve at the inlet of fan coil to ensure enough water flow.
Space heating load is smallNormal, no need for heating
Disinfect function is enabled but without TBHDisable disinfect functionadd TBH or AHS for DHW mode
Manual turn on the FAST WATER function, after the hot water meets the requirements, the heat pump fails to switch to the air-conditioning mode in time when the air conditioner is in demandManual turn off the FAST WATER function
When the ambient temperature is low, the hot water is not enough and the AHS is not operated or operated lateSet "T4DHWMIN", the suggested value is ≥ -5°CSet "T4_TBH_ON", the suggested value is ≥ 5°C
DHW mode priorityIf there is AHS or IBH connect to the unit, when the outdoor unit failed, the hydraulic module board must run DHW mode till the water temperature reach the setting temperature before change to heating mode.

Symptom 9: DHW mode heat pump stop work but setpoint not reached, space heating require heat but unit stay in DHW mode

POSSIBLE CAUSESCORRECTIVE ACTION
Surface of coil in the tank not large enoughThe same solution for Symptom 7
TBH or AHS not availableHeat pump will stay in DHW mode until "t_DHWHP_MAX" reached or setpoint is reached. Add TBH or AHS for DHW mode, TBH and AHS should be controlled by the unit.

15 INFORMATION SERVICING

1) Checks to the area

Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimised. For repair to the refrigerating system, the following precautions shall be complied with prior to conducting work on the system.

2) Work procedure

Works shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimise the risk of a flammable gas or vapour being present while the work is being performed.

3) General work area

All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the nature of work being carried out. work in confined sapces shall be avoided. The area around the work space shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the area have been made safe by control of flammable material.

4) Checking for presence of refrigerant

The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e. no sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.

5) Presence of fire extinguisher

If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry power or CO^2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.

6) No ignition sources

No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which involves exposing any pipe work that contains or has contained flammable refrigerant shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which flammable refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. NO SMOKING signs shall be displayed.

7) Ventilated area

Ensure that the area is in the open or that it it adequately ventilated before breaking into the system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere.

8) Checks to the refrigeration equipment

Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer's maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt consult the manufacturer's technical department for assistance. The following checks shall be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants:

• The charge size is in accordance with the room size within which the refrigerant containing parts are installed;
• The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed;
- If an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuits shall be checked for the presence of refrigerant; marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible.
• Marking and signs that are illegible shall be corrected;
- Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless the components are constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected against being so corroded.

9) Checks to electrical devices

Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, and adequate temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all parties are advised.

Initial safety checks shall include:

• That capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking;
• That there no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system;
• That there is continuity of earth bonding.

10) Repairs to sealed components

a) During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the equipment being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an electrical supply to equipment during servicing, then a permanently operating form of leak detection shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially hazardous situation.

b) Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by working on electrical components, the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is affected. This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original specification, damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc.

  • Ensure that apparatus is mounted securely.
  • Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded such that they no longer serve the purpose of preventing the ingress of flammable atmospheres. Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.

NOTE

The use of silicon sealant may inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection equipment. Instrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them.

11) Repair to intrinsically safe components

Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a flammable atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace components only with parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.

12) Cabling

Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges or any other adverse environmental effects. The check shall also take into account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources such as compressors or fans.

13) Detection of flammable refrigerants

Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.

14) Leak detection methods

The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems containing flammable refrigerants. Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but the sensitivity may not be adequate, or may need re-calibration. (-Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant. Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and shall be calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas (25% maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work. If a leak is suspected ,all naked flames shall be removed or extinguished. If a leakage of refrigerat is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered from the system, or isolated(by means of shut off valves) in a part of the system remote from the leak . Oxygen free nitrogen(OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and during the brazing process.

15) Removal and evacuation

When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs of for any other purpose conventional procedures shall be used, However, it is important that best practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. The following procedure shall be adhered to:

  • Remove refrigerant;
    • Purge the circuit with inert gas;
  • Evacuate;
    • Purge again with inert gas;
  • Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.

The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. The system shall be flushed with OFN to render the unit safe. This process may need to be repeated several times.

Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used for this task.

Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system.

When the final OFN charge is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place. This operation is absolutely vital if brazing operations on the pipe-work are to take place.

Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not closed to any ignition sources and there is ventilation available.

16) Charging procedures

In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed:

  • Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
    • Cylinders shall be kept upright.
  • Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant.
  • Label the system when charging is complete(if not already).

• Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigeration system.
- Prior to recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall be leak tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.

17) Decommissioning

Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the equipment and all its detail. It is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior to the task being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken.

In case analysis is required prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is commenced.

a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
b) Isolate system electrically
c) Before attempting the procedure ensure that:

• Mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders;
• All personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly;
• The recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person;
• Recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.

d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.

e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various parts of the system.
f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80% volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned and checked.

18) Labelling

Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable refrigerant.

19) Recovery

When removing refrigerant from a system, either for service or decommissioning, it is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.

When tranferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed. Ensure that the correct numbers of cylinders for holding the total system charge are available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labelled for that refrigerant(i.e special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief valve and associated shut-off valves in good working order.

Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs.

The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of flammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order.

Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and that any associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant release. Consult manufacturer if in doubt.

The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders.

If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carried out prior to retruning the compressor to the suppliers. Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.

20) Transportation, marking and storage for units

Transport of equipment containing flammable refrigerants Compliance with the transport regulations

Marking of equipment using signs Compliance with local regulations

Disposal of equipment using flammable refrigerants Compliance with national regulations

Storage of equipment/appliances

The storage of equipment should be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Storage of packed (unsold) equipment

Storage package protection should be constructed such that mechanical damage to the equipment inside the package will not cause a leak of the refrigerant charge.

The maximum number of pieces of equipment permitted to be stored together will be determined by local regulations.
