▶Disconnect the product from the power
supply (electrical partition with a contact
opening of at least 3 mm, e.g. fuse or
power switch).
▶Secure against being switched back on
again.
▶Wait for at least 3 minutes until the con-
densers have discharged.
▶Check that there is no voltage.
▶Cover or insulate adjacent live parts.
1.3.3 Risk of death due to lack of safety
devices
A lack of safety devices (e.g. expansion re-
lief valve, expansion vessel) may lead to po-
tentially fatal scalding and other injuries, e.g.
due to explosions. The schematic drawings
included in this document do not show all
safety devices required for correct installa-
tion.
▶Install the necessary safety devices in the
system.
▶Inform the operator about the function and
position of the safety devices.
▶Observe the applicable national and inter-
national laws, standards and guidelines.
1.3.4 Risk of being scalded by hot
drinking water
There is a risk of scalding at the hot water
draw-off points if the hot water temperatures
are greater than 50 °C. Young children and
elderly persons are particularly at risk, even
at lower temperatures.
▶Select the temperature so that nobody is at
risk.

The coolant must not be allowed to escape
into the atmosphere. R410A is a fluorinated
greenhouse gas covered by the Kyoto Pro-
tocol, with a GWP of 1725 (GWP = Global
Warming Potential). If it escapes into the at-
mosphere, its impact is 1725 times stronger
than the natural greenhouse gas CO2.
Before the heat pump is disposed of, the
coolant it contains must be completely
drained into a suitable vessel so that it
can then be recycled or disposed of in
accordance with the regulations.
▶Ensure that only officially certified com-
petent persons with appropriate protective
equipment carry out maintenance work on
the coolant circuit or access it.

product to be recycled or disposed of by
accredited specialists in accordance with
regulations.
▶Only use coolant R410A.
▶Only use a suitable R410A tool for the
filling, pressure measurement, vacuum
generation and discharge.
▶Solder the lines using shielding gas. Check
the lines for leak-tightness using nitrogen.
▶In the event of a repair or maintenance
work, fill the coolant circuit with liquid
coolant.
▶If the coolant circuit is not leak-tight, check
which component must be repaired or re-
placed.
▶Lower the negative pressure in the coolant
circuit to max. 10 mbar (1000 Pa).
▶When filling the coolant circuit, observe the
values in the "Technical data" section.

Heating mode −15 … 28 ℃ −20 … 28 ℃
Cylinder charging mode −15 … 46 ℃ −20 … 46 ℃
–If the product's coolant circuit pressure exceeds the max-
imum pressure of 4.15 MPa (41.5 bar), the high-pres-
sure pressure switch switches the product off. Follow-
ing a waiting period, the product attempts to start once
more. After three failed start attempts in succession, a
fault message is displayed.
–If the product is switched off, the crankcase housing
heating is switched on when the compressor outlet tem-
perature reaches 7 °C in order to prevent possible dam-
age caused by switching it back on.
–If the compressor inlet temperature and the compressor
outlet temperature are below 1 °C, the compressor does
not start up.
–A temperature sensor on the compressor outlet limits the
product's operation if the measured temperature exceeds
the maximum permissible temperature. The maximum
permissible temperature depends on the evaporation and
condensation temperature.
–The product measures the flow rate of the connected
heating circuit when starting up the product.
–If the heating circuit temperature falls below 3 °C, the
product's frost protection function is automatically ac-
tivated as the heating pump is started. In addition, frost
protection agent should be added to the heating water as
the heating water temperature may fall below the freez-
ing point in the event of a power cut, which poses a risk
of frost to the heating installation.
Note
Operating the heat pump outside the application
limits results in the heat pump being switched off
by the internal control and safety devices.

▶Ensure that condensate does not dis-
charge onto paths and that ice cannot
build up there.
The condensate is discharged centrally underneath the
product.
▶Prepare the condensate discharge using a drain line or in
a gravel bed.

–Maximum length: ≤8 mm
2. Align the product horizontally so that condensate can
flow.
Note
The product must be installed with the vi-
bration-isolating feet supplied. The product
is lifted by the vibration-isolating feet, which
simplifies the condensate-discharge process
and reduces vibrations.
3. Screw in the vibration-damping feet using the concrete
foundation.
Note
The concrete foundation must not be joined
to the house foundations.
5.3 Hydraulics installation
In heating installations that are equipped primarily with ther-
mostatic or electrically controlled valves, a constant and suf-
ficient flow through the heat pump must be ensured. Irre-
spective of which heating installation is selected, the min-
imum volume of circulating heating water (40% of the nom-
inal flow, see the technical data table) must be guaranteed.
5.3.1 Carrying out the hydraulics installation
Caution.
Risk of damage caused by residue in the
heating flow and return.
Residue from the pipelines, such as welding
beads, scale, hemp, putty, rust and coarse
dirt, may be deposited in the product and
cause malfunctions.
▶Flush the heating installation thoroughly
before connecting the product in order to
remove any possible residue.
Caution.
Risk of material damage due to corrosion.
If plastic pipes that are not diffusion-tight are
used in the heating circuit, this may lead to
corrosion and deposits in the heating circuit
and in the product.
▶Do not treat the water with corrosion pro-
tection agents if plastic pipes that are not
diffusion-tight are used.
Danger!
Risk of material damage caused by sol-
dering work.
Carrying out soldering work on lines that
have already been installed may damage the
seals.
▶Solder the lines before installing the
product.
1. Insulate the lines (including those running below
ground) with UV-resistant and high-temperature-res-
istant insulation between the product and the heating
installation.
2. In order to avoid transferring vibrations to the surround-
ing buildings, use flexible connection pipes on the
product that have a length of at least 0.75 m.
3. When the product is not installed at the highest point in
the heating circuit, install additional purging valves in
suitable places.
4. Install the following accessories in the heating return.

7. Install a flexible connection pipe (1) and (6) (to be
provided on-site) with an O-ring and a stop valve to
each of the connections for the heat pump heating flow
and return.
8. Check the connections for tightness.
5.3.2 Connecting the swimming pool (optional)
Danger!
Risk of material damage due to a direct
connection to a swimming pool.
If the product is directly connected to a swim-
ming pool, damage may be caused by corro-
sion.
▶Do not connect the heat pump heating
circuit directly to a swimming pool.
▶If you want to connect a swimming pool to the heating
circuit, note the components (expansion vessels, etc.)
that are required for the installation.
