SWVPC - 200/100
Domestic Hot Water Cylinder With Ch Buffer Tank
Assembly and operating manual

Safety instructions
1. Read and strictly follow this installation and operating instructions to ensure a long
life and reliable cylinder operation.
2. The manufacturer of this cylinder will not be liable for any damages due to the failure
to follow the installation and operation instructions.
3. The cylinder must not be installed in rooms where the temperature may drop below
0°C.
4. The cylinder installation and the initial start-up, as well as all electrical and hydraulic
work must be performed by a qualied professional installer.
5. The cylinder is designed for vertical installation only (screw on feet).
6. The device must be installed in such a place and in such a way in order not to flood
the room in case of the emergency water leak.
7. Connections to water supply system, central heating system, and solar collectors
must be made in accordance with the diagram in this installation instruction. Failure
to follow the installation instruction invalidate the warranty and may cause cylinder’s
damage.
8. A connection to water supply system must be made in accordance with legally binding
norms.
9. The cylinder is a pressure appliance designed for connection to the water supply
system where the water pressure doesn’t exceed 0,6 MPa. If the water pressure
exceeds 0,6 MPa, the pressure reducing valve before cylinder must be tted.
10. A small leak from the safety valve through the outlet pipe may occur- it’s a normal
operating state of the appliance. The outlet pipe has to remain open. Do not clog
it, as a clogged outlet may lead to the breakdown of the cylinder.
11. Do not use the cylinder if you suspect that the safety valve may be faulty.
12. The tank is equipped with magnesium anode- an additional protection against
corrosion. The anode is an operating part, therefore, it is exposed to wear.
The condition of the magnesium anode should be controlled every 12 months.
The anode must be replaced once every 18 months.
13. Rated temperature of water in the cylinder should not exceed 80°C.
The cylinder is suitable for tting an immersion heater with thermostat e.g. GRW 1.4,
GRW 2.0. The immersion heater must be tted in lieu of cork 1½″.
A maximum length of immersion heater is 450mm.

GB-101_f. 3
Connection to the central heating system
Cylinder must be tted to the central heating system by pipe unions 1″. A cut-off valves
must be installed before the pipe unions. A ow rate of heating water must be high
enough to maximise cylinder efciency (see ‚Technical data table). It concerns the forced
circulation installation (with a central heating water pump).
Model SWVPC is equipped in double heating coil.

Description of device
Cylinder SWVPC is a device with double tank intended to heating medium system with
heat pump.
The upper tank is enamelled with double heating coil, intened to prepare domestic hot
water.
In the lower part, there is a buffer with unenamelled tank, anti-corrosion inhibitor protected
for transport.
Buffer is intened only for work in the heating system. Can’t work with domestic hot water.

Connection to the water system
Please follow water connection instructions below:
- install the T-connection with 6 bar* safety valve and the drain valve to the tting of
cold water inlet [ZW]. It’s forbidden to install a cut-off valve (or any ow reducer)
between the tank and the safety valve and on its outlet. The safety valve must be
installed in such a place as to quickly let you notice the outgoing water,
- install the cylinder equipped with the safety valve to the water system,
- install the cut-off valve on cold water supply pipe.
Hot water outlet should be led to the connections in the upper part of the cylinder. Every
cylinder is equipped with connection intended for its installation to the DHW circulation.
The buffer tank can be assembled in the heating system:
- open system according to the current standards
- closed system according to the current standards
*Please note: use the safety valve matched to the heat’s source. Installing a safety valve
with inadequate capacity can result for excessive pressure increase in the cylinder and
as a result a leakage. In this case, warranty does not cover damage caused.

Start up
Before the start-up make sure that the installation procedures have been carried out in
accordance with the regulations included in this manual.
Cylinder must be lled with water:
- turn on the valve on cold water supply pipe,
- turn on the hot water outlet valve (water outow without the air bubbles indicates
that the tank is full),
- turn off the outlet valves.
Turn on the valves connecting cylinder with the central heating system and fill the
surface area of buffer. To vent the buffer, you should use air vent on supply. Air vent is
also recommended at the highest point of the coil supply connection. Check for water
and heating medium leaks. Check out the safety valve performance in accordance with
valve manufacturer’s instruction.

6
Cylinder emptying
In order to empty the cylinder:
• turn off the valves which connect cylinder with central heating system,
• turn off the valves which connect cylinder with PC circuit,
• turn off the valve to connect the cold water inlet with cylinder,
• turn off the valve on the cold water inlet,
• turn on the drain valve.
Operation
Follow the guidelines below for safety and trouble-free cylinder operation:
• Check out the safety valve performance once every 14 days. Do not use the cylinder
if the water does not come out (it indicates that the valve is broken).
• Clean inside of the cylinder periodically. The frequency of cleaning depends on
the degree of water hardness. The cleaning should be done by a qualied person.
Always tighten the lid’s screws to the correct torque of 18-22Nm.
• The wear condition of the anode must be inspected annually.
• The anode must be replaced once every 18 months.
- anode rod replacement [3]: take off upper lid [1], take out an insulation ring, turn off
the cut-off valve on cold water supply pipe, turn on the hot water valve (mixer tap),
turn the drain valve on, drain as much water as you need to easily unscrew the anode
rod (avoiding room ooding). Remove the cork and unscrew the anode rod.
• Heat up the water above 70°C periodically for hygiene reasons.
• Failures or malfunctions notify to the seller.
• Insulate the outlet pipe and heating coil connection pipes to minimise the heat loss
(recommended).
Above activities are beyond of the scope of warranty service (should be done by the user).
