8Start-up
8.1 General
To ensure that start-up is performed correctly, it should only be
carried out by an after-sales service technician authorised by
the manufacturer. These measures can also include an addi-
tional warranty under certain conditions (see Warranty).
8.2 Preparation
The following items need to be checked prior to start-up:
All of the heat pump connections must be installed as de-
scribed in chapter 7.
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 fan 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 manager’s
operating instructions.
Ensure the condensate outflow functions properly.
The hydraulic network must be flushed correctly before in-
stalling the heat pump. This includes the supply line to the
heat pump. Only when flushing is complete can the heat
pump be hydraulically integrated.
The dirt traps present as standard or included for assembly
must be inspected between 4 and 8 weeks after the heat
pump is commissioned or changes made to the heating
system and cleaned if necessary. Further maintenance in-
tervals must be scheduled depending on the level of soil-
ing, which must be defined and carried out by a suitably
qualified person.
Special notes for the integration of heat pumps in
existing systems (renovations):
The existing heat distribution network (pipe materials, connec-
tion types, etc.) and the existing heating systems (e.g. radiators,
underfloor heating, etc.) can impact the quality of the water in
existing systems. Particularly when welded steel pipes or pipes
that are not oxygen diffusion-proof are used, deposits, scaling,
silting or similar may be present that can cause damage in the
heat pump system. This can result in a total failure of the heat
pump The following measures must be observed to avoid this:
Compliance with the water properties and water quality
Flushing of the hydraulic system
Maintenance interval of the dirt traps
If silting or ferromagnetic particles are to be expected in
the hydraulic network, dirt separators or magnetite separa-
tors must be installed on-site before the medium enters
the heat pump. The maintenance intervals must be defined
by a suitably qualified person.
8.3 Procedure
The heat pump is started up via the heat pump manager. Ad-
justments should be made in compliance with the instructions.
At hot water temperatures under 7 °C, start-up is not possible.
The water in the buffer tank must be heated to a minimum of
22 °C with the second heat generator.
To ensure a problem-free start-up, the following procedure is to
be implemented:
1) Close all consumer circuits.
2) Ensure that the heat pump has the correct water flow.
3) Select "Winter" mode on the heat pump manager.
4) In the special functions menu, start the "Start-up" program.
5) Wait until a return temperature of at least 29 °C has been
reached.
6) Now slowly reopen the heating circuit valves in succession
so that the heating water flow is constantly raised by
slightly opening the respective heating circuit. The heating
water temperature in the buffer tank must not be allowed
to drop below 24 °C during this process. This ensures that
the heat pump can be defrosted at any time.
7) When all heat circuits are fully open and a return tempera-
ture of at least 22 °C is maintained, the heat pump start-up
is complete.
!
Operating the heat pump at low system temperatures may
cause the heat pump to break down completely.
9 Cleaning / maintenance
9.1 Maintenance
To protect the paintwork, avoid leaning anything against the
device or putting objects on the device. External heat pump
parts can be wiped with a damp cloth and domestic cleaner.
º
Never use cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid or
chloride as these can damage the surfaces.
To prevent faults due to sediment in the heat exchanger of the
heat pump, ensure that the heat exchanger in the heating sys-
tem cannot be contaminated. In the event that operating mal-
functions due to contamination still occur, the system should
be cleaned as described below.
