3 SELECTING THE INSTALLATION SITE
Positioning
 Installation must be in accordance with local regulations. If
they do not exist, follow EN378
.
During positioning consider these elements:
x customer approval
x unit weight and bearing point capacity
x safe accessible position
x functional spaces
x spaces for the air intake/exhaust
x electrical connections
x max. distance allowed by the electrical connections

Functional spaces
Functional spaces are designed to:
x guarantee good unit operation
x carry out maintenance operations
x protect authorized operators and exposed people
 Respect all functional spaces indicated in the TECHNICAL
INFORMATION section.
Positioning
Units are designed to be installed:
x EXTERNAL
x in fixed positions
 Put the unit in a position where any leaking gas cannot enter
buildings or stagnate in closed areas. In the latter case,
observe the rules for machinery rooms (ventilation, leak
detection, etc.).
Installation standards:
x install the unit raised from the ground
x bearing points aligned and leveled
x discharged condensation water must not cause harm/danger
to people and property
x the accumulation of snow must not cause clogging of the
coils
x avoid installations in places subject to flooding
Limit vibration transmission:
x use anti-vibration devices or neoprene strips on the unit
support points

Avoid therefore:
x obstacles to the airflow
x exchange difficulties
x leaves or other foreign bodies that can obstruct the exchange
batteries
x winds that hinder or favour the airflow
x heat or pollution sources close to the unit (chimneys,
extractors etc)
x stratification (cold air that stagnates at the bottom)
x recirculation (expelled air that is sucked in again)
x positioning below the level of the threshold, close to very high
walls, attics or in angles that could give rise to stratification
or recirculation phenomenons.
Ignoring the previous indications could:
x energy efficiency decrease
x blocchi per ALTA PRESSIONE (in estate) o BASSA PRESSIONE

The warranty does not cover
damages caused by limestone
formations, deposits and impurities
from the water supply and/or from
failure to clean the systems.
Hydraulic system
The pipes must be designed and manufactured to limit pressure
drops as much as possible, i.e. optimise performance of the
system. Keep the following to a minimum:
x overall length
x number of bends
x number of vertical changes of direction
If the unit is to replace an existing unit, clean the system
thoroughly: see Sequence of operations on the following pages
Water quality
The water quality can be checked by qualified personnel.
Water with inadequate characteristics can cause:
x pressure drop increase
x energy efficiency decrease
x corrosive symptom increase
Water features:
x within the limits indicated by table
Provide a water treatment system if values fall outside the limits.
Cleanliness
Before connecting the water to the unit, clean the system
thoroughly with specific products effective to remove residues or
impurities that may affect functioning. Existing systems must be
free from sludge and contaminants and protected against build-
ups.
New systems
In case of new installations, it is essential to wash the entire
installation (with the circulator uninstalled) before commissioning
the central installation. This removes residues of the installation
process (welding, waste, joint products...). The system must then
be filled with clean high-quality tap water.
Existing systems
If a new unit is installed on an existing system, the system must
be rinsed to avoid the presence of particles, sludge and waste.
The system must be drained before installing the new unit. Dirt
can be removed only with a suitable water flow. Each section
must then be washed separately. Particular attention must also be
paid to “blind spots” where a lot of dirt can accumulate due to
the reduced water flow. The system must then be filled with clean
high-quality tap water. If, after rinsing, the quality of the water is
still unsuitable, a few measures must be taken to avoid problems.
An option to remove pollutants is to install a filter.

The unit must always be protected
from freeze.
Otherwise irreversible damage may
occur.
Minimum water flow
Maximum water flow
Risk of freeze
If the unit or the relative water connections can be subject to
temperatures close to 0°C:
x Mix water with ethylene glycol, or
x Safeguard the pipes with heating cables placed under the
insulation, or
x Empty the system in cases of long non-use
Anti-freeze solutions
Consider that the use of anti-freeze solution determines an
increase in a pressure drop.
Make sure that the glycol type utilized is inhibited (not
corrosive) and compatible with the hydraulic circuit components.
Do not use different glicol mixture (i.e. ethylic with propylene).
Water flow-rate
The design water flow-rate must be:
x inside the exchanger operating limits (see the TECHNICAL
INFORMATION chapter)
x guaranteed also with variable system conditions (for example,
in systems where some circuits are bypassed in particular
situations)
If the system capacity is below the minimum flow, bypass the
system as indicated in the diagram.
If the system capacity exceeds the miaximum flow, bypass the
system as indicated in the diagram
Minimum system water content
Minimum system water contents are given in the ‘General
technical data’ section and they have to be satisfied to stop the
compressor from continuously switching on and off.
Water filter
Use filter with mesh pitch:
1,6 mm
 Must be installed immediately in the water input of the unit,
in a position that is easily accessible for cleaning.
 The filter never should be removed, this operation invalidates
the guaranty.

Flow Switch
The flow switch must be present to ensure shutdown of the unit if
water is not circulating.
It has to be installed in a duct rectilinear part, not in proximity of
curves that cause turbulences.
Operations sequence
Before starting the unit pump:
1 Close all vents in the high points of the unit’s water circuit.
2 Close all drain shut-off valves in the low points of the unit’s
water circuit
x Exchangers
x Pumps
x collectors
x storage tanks
 Thoroughly wash the system with clean water:
use the bypass to exclude the exchanger from the flow
(diagram on previous page) fill and drain the system several
times.
 Apply additives to prevent corrosion, fouling, formation of mud
and algae.
 Fill the system
do not use the unit pump
 Conduct a leak test.
 Isolate the pipes to avoid heat dispersions and formation of
condensate.
 Leave various service points free (wells, vents, etc).
 Neglecting to wash will lead to the filter having to be cleaned
many times and at worst may damage the exchangers and
compressors.

Partial energy recovery
Option
A configuration which enables the production of hot water free-of-
charge while operating in the cooling mode, thanks to the partial
recovery of condensation heat that would otherwise be rejected to
the external heat source.
The maximum capacity available from the partial recovery is equal
to the 15% of the rejected heating capacity (cooling capacity +
compressor power input)
The recovery exchanger must be always maintained full of water
The lack of water amplifies the noise generated by the operation
When the temperature of the water to be heated is particularly
low, it is wise to insert a flow-rate control valve into the system
water circuit, in order to maintain the temperature at the recovery
output at above 35°C and thus avoid the condensation of the
refrigerant into the partial energy recovery device..
