•A cooling system, at the top, retrieving heat from the heat source into the water on the
tank.
2.2 Running Principle
1. The cooling fluid (R134a) is compressed in the high efficient compressor, raising its pressure
and temperature;
2. In the condenser (not in direct contact with the water), the heat energy in the cooling fluid is
transmitted to the water in the water storage heater;
3. The condensate fluid (high pressure) goes through the expansion valve which is responsible
for reducing its pressure;

Installation and user manual

BOOSTER
4. The fluid absorbs heat energy from the water source in plate heat exchanger;
2.3 Technical Data
The R134a is a HFC fluid, thus not harmful to the ozone layer. It has great
chemical and thermal stability, low toxicity, non-inflammable, and is compatible
with most materials.

4.1 Safety and Control Devices
4.1.1 High/Low Pressure Switch
In case of running outside the range of pressures recommended and defined by the supplier, the
equipment will switch off and indicate error in the electronic panel.
4.1.2 Safety Thermostat
The safety thermostat is set by the supplier to ensure that the water temperature in the storage water
tank with electric heater does not exceed the maximum value. If the temperature exceeds this value,
the thermostat switches off the backup electrical heater. Switching on is done manually by qualified
staff, after analysing the reasons for the switch off.
4.1.3 Temperature Probe
The purpose of the temperature probe is to measure the temperature values of water in the storage
water tank with electric heater in order to control the system.
4.1.4 Expansion Vessel*)
The expansion vessel is a device whose purpose is to compensate for the increase in water volume
due to temperature rise.
4.1.5 Safety Group*)
The safety device allows the system to be protected against anomaly situations: cold water supply,
hot water flowing back, emptying of the storage water heater and high pressure. The valve is
calibrated to activate at 0.7 MPa).
To drain the water in thestorage water tank, youshould close the supply valve and open the discharge
valve.
The safety valve discharge pipe must beopen into the atmosphere, because the valve may dripwater
or even discharge water.
The safety valve must be opened regularly to remove impurities and check that it is not blocked. The
discharge pipe must be installed in a vertical position. The discharge pipe must be installed upright
away from a cold environment.
4.1.6 Pressure Reducing Valve*)
The pressure reducing valve must always be installed upstream from the safety device, and ready to
activate in situations when the pressure in the circuit exceeds 3 bar (0.3MPa). This valve comes with
a pressure gauge.
*) Parts not supplied by the manufacturer. They must be installed by the installer.
Installing this device is recommended for the proper installation of the equipment.
Installing this device is the responsibility of the installer.
As a general rule it is installed in the cold water pipe.

4.2 Drain pan
The equipment should not be installed over an area where drains from the tank or its connections
could cause damage in the adjacent area or on the lower floors of the structure. For the
aforementioned reasons, it is recommended to place a drain pan under the equipment.
It is important that the pan has a flow channel with a minimum diameter of 3/4’’.
4.3 Positioning
Preliminary considerations:
•House and protect the equipment in places susceptible to ice formation;
•Choose the position closest to the main points of use;
•Always insulate the pipes;
•The ambient temperature around the equipment must not exceed 40 ºC;
•The water heater should never be placed outside, also avoiding exposure to sunlight - failure
to respect this parameter can lead to the exclusion of the warranty;
•Make sure that the support surface is sufficient to accommodate the weight of the water-filled
water heater;
•Provide at least 500mm of space on the fronts that may require maintenance.

WARNING
It is necessary to install a safety device at the cold water inlet of the appliance.
The safety device must be in compliance with the standard EN 1487:2002,
maximum pressure 7 bar (0.7 MPa) Water must not be stopped from flowing
from the safety device to the deposit by any sort of accessory.
The safety device must be connected with piping whose diameter is not less
than thecold waterinlet coupling. Thedischargemust beconnectedto a sewage
siphon or, if this is not possible, elevated to a distance of at least 20 mm from
the pavement to allow visual inspection;
To prevent high pressure from main water supply, install a pressure reduction
valve set to 3 bar (0.3 MPa).
WARNING / DANGER
The water you use may contain impurities and/or substances damaging to the system and even harmful
to your health. Make sure you use water with quality fitting for home consumption. The following table
indicates some parameters that, when exceeded, must be chemically treated.

4.4.1 Water flow control valve
This device is equipped with a water flow control valve that regulates the amount of water that enters
the evaporator according the T3 and T2 probes. This control valve needs a minimum amount of water
pressure in the circuit to regulate properly.
In this case, the minimum pressure required is 27 kPa in the water circuit for proper regulation of the
water flow valve. When installing this equipment check if the installed water pump for water
circulation can guarantee the necessary water pressure and that it does not exceed 400kPa.
Regarding water flow, check if the installation allows a minimum water flow of 480 Liter/hour since
the working envelop of the valve is 50 L/h to 480L/h. If the your installation exceeds a water flow of
480L/h it will be regulated by the valve to maintain correct water flow values.

During operation, condensation may occur. These condensates are collected in the drip tray and
drained through a hole at the back of the tray. The installer must connect the condensate hose
supplied by the manufacturer and direct the condensates to the drainage system or drainage siphon.
WARNING
The condensate hose must not be bent/pressed and must be placed where it
best suits the proper flow of condensates.
4.7 Electrical Connections
The Booster heat pump must be plugged to the power supply only after filling the storage water tank.
It comes with a mains cable, to be connected to an earthed monophase voltage (230VAC/50HZ). The
connections must comply with the standards of installation in effect in the territory or country where
the HPWS heat pump has been installed.
The installation includes:
•Bipolar circuit-breaker with connection cable with section equal to or exceeding 2.5 mm
•Protection differential circuit breaker of 30 mA
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, by its custom-
er service, or by staff with similar training.
