Compatible products
AXC 40 is suitable for the following main products:
• S1155
• S1255
• VVM S320

Mounting
Caution
The screw type must be adapted to the surface
on which installation is taking place.
UN
Use all mounting points and install the module upright,
flat against the wall, with no part of the module protrud-
ing beyond the wall.
Leave at least 100 mm of free space around the module
to allow access and make cable routing easier during
installation and servicing.
NOTE
The installation must be carried out in such a
way that IP21 is satisfied.

NOTE
All electrical connections must be carried out
by an authorised electrician.
Electrical installation and wiring must be carried
out in accordance with the stipulations in force.
The main product must be disconnected from
the power supply when installing AXC 40.
• To prevent interference, sensor cables to external
connections must not be laid close to high voltage
cables.
• The minimum area of communication and sensor
cables to external connections must be 0.5 mm² up
to 50 m, for example EKKX, LiYY or equivalent.
• AXC 40 must be installed via an isolator switch. The
cable area has to be dimensioned based on the fuse
rating used.
• Mark the relevant electrical cabinet with a warning
about external voltage, in those cases where a com-
ponent in the cabinet has a separate supply.
• AXC 40 restarts after a power failure.
Electrical circuit diagrams are at the end of the chapter
for each connection option.
Cable lock
Use a suitable tool to release/lock cables in terminal
blocks.

AXC 40Chapter 3 | Common electrical connection8

General
This function enables an external additional heater, e.g.
an electric boiler, wood boiler, pellet boiler, oil boiler,
gas boiler or district heating, to assist with the heating.
The heat pump/indoor module controls a shunt valve
(QN11) and a circulation pump (GP10) via AXC 40. If the
heat pump/indoor module cannot manage to maintain
the correct supply temperature (BT25), the additional
heat starts. When the temperature on the boiler sensor
(BT52) exceeds the set value, the heat pump transmits
a signal to the shunt (QN11) to open from the additional
heat. The shunt (QN11) is regulated so that the true
supply temperature agrees with the heat pump’s theor-
etically calculated set point value. When the heating
demand drops sufficiently, so additional heat is no longer
required, the shunt (QN11) closes completely.
Factory-set minimum operating time for the boiler is 12
hours.
The function smart energy source can be selected if you
want to prioritise automatically between heat pump
operation and additional heat versus the best price or
environmental impact.
COMPATIBLE PRODUCTS
• S1155
• S1255
• VVM S320
• VVM S325
Pipe connections
The external circulation pump (GP10) is located on the
supply line to the climate system after the temperature
sensor (BT25).
SHUNT VALVE
The shunt valve (QN11) must be placed on the supply
line to the climate system after the heat pump according
to the outline diagram.
AB
B
A
• Connect the supply line from the
heat pump to the external heat
source via the T-pipe to port B on
the shunt valve (closes on reduce
signal).
• Connect the supply line to the climate system from
the shunt valve to the common port AB (always open)
• Connect the supply line from the external additional
heat to the shunt valve to port A (opens on increase
signal).

Shunt controlled additional heat

TEMPERATURE SENSOR
• Install the boiler sensor (BT52) in a suitable location
in the external additional heat.
•External supply temperature sensor (BT25, connected
in the heat pump/indoor module) must be installed on
the supply line to the climate system, after the shunt
valve (QN11).
LEK
LEK
E
Install the temperature sensors using cable ties, together
with the heat conducting paste and aluminium tape.
Then insulate with the enclosed insulation tape.
NOTE
Sensor and communication cables must not
be laid near power cables.
Outline diagram
Real installations must be planned according to applic-
able standards. More system principles can be found at
nibe.eu.

CONNECTION OF SENSORS AND EXTERNAL
BLOCKING
Use cable type LiYY, EKKX or similar.
Boiler sensor (BT52)
Connect the boiler sensor to AA5-X2:23-24.
External blocking (optional)
An external switch function (NO) can be connected to
AA5-X2:21-22 to block additional heat. The switch must
be potential-free and a closed switch results in blocking.
