Operating principleof heat
pumps
Heat pumps operate on the principle of a refrigerator:
the same technology, only with the opposite effect. The
refrigerator extracts heat from foods, which is released
into the room through ns on the back.
The heat pump extracts heat from our environment:
air, earth or ground water. The extracted heat is condi-
tioned in the unit and supplied to the heating water. Even
when it is extremely cold outside, the heat pump draws
enough heat to heat a house.
Example: drawing of a brine/water heat pump with oor
heating:
4/4= usable energy
approx. 3/4= environmental energy
approx. 1/4= external
electrical energy
Area of utilisation
Taking into consideration the ambient conditions, limits
of application and the applicable regulations, every heat
pump can be utilized in new or existing heating systems.
Overview "Technical data / scope of delivery".
Heat quantity recording
In addition to the proof of the unit's efciency, EEWaer-
meGalso meets the demand for a heat quantity recording
(hereafter refered to as HQR). The HQR is mandato-
ry with air/water heat pumps. With brine/ water and wa-
ter/water heat pumps, a HQR may only be set up when
a forward ow temperature of ≥ 35 °C has been reached.
The HQR must record the total warm energy release
(heating and hot water) in the building. In heat pumps
with heat quantity recording, the analysis is conducted by
the regulator. The regulator displays the thermal energy
that is exchanged from the heating system in kWh.
Operation
Your decision to purchase a heat pump or a heat pump
system is a long-term contribution to protecting the en-
vironment through low emissions and reduced primary
energy use.
You can operate and control the heat pump system with
the control element of the heating and heat pump regu-
lator.
NOTICE.
Make sure that the control settings are
correct.
Operating manual of the heating and heat pump
regulator.
To ensure that your heat pump or heat pump system op-
erates efciently and ecologically, the following are espe-
cially important:
€ENERGY SAVING TIP
Avoid unnecessarily high ow tempera-
tures.
A lower ow temperature on the hot wa-
ter side increases the efciency of the sys-
tem.
€ENERGY SAVING TIP
When letting in fresh air. do not leave win-
dows open for an extended period in or-
der to save energy and reduce your heat-
ing costs.

Care of the unit
The outer surfacesof theunit can be cleaned with a damp
cloth and household cleaning products.
Do not use cleaning or care products that contain abra-
sives, acids and/or chlorine. Such products would de-
stroy the surfaces and could also damage the technical
components of the unit.
Maintenance of the unit
The cooling circuit of the heat pump requires no regular,
technically-qualied maintenance.
According to EU regulation (EC) 842/2006 of May 17,
2006, leak inspections and maintenance of a log book
are required for certain heat pumps!
The criteria for conducting leak inspections and main-
taining a log book are based on the hermetic impermea-
bility of the cooling circuit and the refrigerant capacity of
the heat pump! No log book is required for heat pumps
with a refrigerant capacity of < 3kg. With all other heat
pumps, the log book is included with all other delivered
materials.
Log book for heat pumps, Section "Information
on use of the log book".
The components of the heating circuit and the heat
source (valves, expansion vessels, circulating pumps, l-
ters, dirt traps) should be inspected as well as cleaned as
needed - at the very least annually - by a qualied heating
or cooling system technician.
It is a good idea to have a maintenance contract with
a specialist company. The company will conduct the re-
quired maintenance at regular intervals.
CAUTION.
Check regularly to ensure that the
condensate can drain out of the unit
unobstructed. To this end, regularly check
the condensate pan in the unit and the
condensate drain to ensure that they are
clean / free from obstructions and clean as
needed.
Cleaning and rinsing of unit Components
WARNING!
Unit components may be cleaned and
rinsed only by customer service personnel
authorized by the manufacturer. Use only
liquids recommended by the manufactur-
er.
Rinsing of the liqueer with chemical
cleaning agents must be followed by neu-
tralization of residue and intensive rinsing
with water. Always observe the technical
data of the manufacturer of the heat ex-
changer.
Malfunctions
In the event of a malfunction, you can detect the cause of
the malfunction via the diagnostic program of the heating
and heat pump regulator.
Operating manual of the heating and heat pump
regulator.
DANGER!
Service and repair work on the compo-
nents of the unit may be performed only by
customer service personnel authorized by
the manufacturer.

Condensate disCharge
The condensation water that accumulated from the air
must be drained via the pre-mounted hose in the unit
for condensate discharge. To do so, connect the hose
for condendate discharge with a water drain.
For positioning of the connection for conden-
sate discharge, see dimensional drawings for the
respective model.
1 Hose for condensate discharge
in interior of unit
2 Connection for the condensate
discharge on the outside of the unit
WARNING!
Guide the pre-mounted hose in the unit
for condensate discharge in the interior of
the unit as a siphon, as shown in the illus-
tration.
Discharge of the condensate into the sewage system is
permitted only via a funnel siphon, which must be acces-
sible at all times.
Pressure relief
Equip the heating circuit in accordance with local stand-
ards and directives with a safety valve and an expansion
tank.
Also install lling and emptying devices, shut-off devices
and non-return valves in the heating circuit.
Proceed as follows:
Rinse heating circuit thoroughly prior to connecting
the unit to the heating circuit…
NOTICE.
Contamination and deposits in the heating
circuit can cause malfunctions.
Install shut-off devices for the hot water outow
(forward ow) and hot water inow (return ow)
on the heat pump side…
NOTICE.
During installation of the shut-off devic-
es, the liqueer of the heat pump can be
rinsed, if necessary.
WARNING!
The condenser may be rinsed only by cus-
tomer service personnel authorized by
the manufacturer .
Connect the unit to the pipes of the heating cir-
cuit via vibration decouplers. They must be installed
in order to prevent damage from vibrations to the
pipes.
NOTICE.
Vibration decouplers are available as ac-
cessories.
The connections for the heating water outow (forward
ow) and the hot water inow *(return ow) are marked
accordingly.
For positioining of the connections, reference
the dimensional drawing for the respective
model.

Circulating pumps
CAUTION.
Always note the model.
Do not use regulated circulating pumps.
Circulating pumps and domestic hot wa-
ter circulation pumps must be multi-stage
pumps.
Water heating
Water heating with the heat pump requires an addition-
al hot water circuit, parallel to the heating circuit. Make
sure that the heating water charge is not channeled
through the buffer tank of the heating circuit.
“Hydraulic connection” instructions.
Hot-water tank
If the heat pump will be used for heating hot water, you
must integrate special hot-water tanks in the heat pump
system. The storage volume must be sufcient so that
the required hot water quantity is available even during
a power outage.
NOTICE.
The heat exchanger surface of the hot wa-
ter tank must be dimensioned so that the
heating capacity of the heat pump is trans-
ferred with minimal spreading.
We offer a variety of hot-water tanks for you to choose
from. They are optimized for use with your heat pump.
NOTICE.
Integrate the hot-water tank in the heat
pump system corresponding to the hy-
draulic diagram for your system.
“Hydraulic connection” instructions.
Overow valve
Use an overow valve for tanks integrated in series to
ensure the minimum ow rate of the heating circuit vol-
ume ow through the heat pump. The overow valve
must be dimensioned so that the minimum ow rate of
the volume ow through the heat pump is ensured when
the heating circuit is shut off.
Buffer tank
The hydraulic connection of the heat pump requires a
buffer tank in the heating circuit. It ensures a minimum
operating time of the heat pump when the heating cir-
cuit valves are closed. The required volume of the buffer
tank is calculated based on the following formula:
VBuffer tank = minimum ow rate of heat circuit volume ow / hour
10
For the minimum ow rate of the heat cir-
cuit volume ow, see overview “Technical
data / Scope of delivery”, “Heating circuit” sec-
tion.
In mono-energetic air/water systems, integrate the buff-
er tank in the heating water outow (forward ow) be-
fore the overow valve.
