Important information

An air/water heat pump installation uses the outdoor air to
heat up a home. The conversion of the outdoor air’s energy
into residential heating occurs in three different circuits.
From the outdoor air, (1) , free heat energy is retrieved and
transported to the heat pump. The heat pump increases the
retrieved heat’s low temperature to a high temperature in
the refrigerant circuit, (2) . The heat is distributed around
the building in the heating medium circuit, (3) .

Installation function

Outdoor air
The outdoor air is sucked into the heat pump.
A
The fan then routes the air to the heat pump’s evaporat-
or. Here, the air releases the heating energy to the refri-
gerant and the air's temperature drops. The cold air is
then blown out of the heat pump.
B
Refrigerant circuit
A gas circulates in a closed system in the heat pump, a
refrigerant, which also passes the evaporator. The refri-
gerant has a very low boiling point. In the evaporator the
refrigerant receives the heat energy from the outdoor
air and starts to boil.
C
The gas that is produced during boiling is routed into an
electrically powered compressor. When the gas is com-
pressed, the pressure increases and the gas's temperat-
ure increases considerably, from 0 °C to approx 80 °C.
D
From the compressor, gas is forced into a heat ex-
changer, condenser, where it releases heat energy to
the indoor module, whereupon the gas is cooled and
condenses to a liquid form again.
E
As the pressure is still high, the refrigerant can pass an
expansion valve, where the pressure drops so that the
refrigerant returns to its original temperature. The refri-
gerant has now completed a full cycle. It is routed to the
evaporator again and the process is repeated.
F
Heat medium circuit
The heat energy that the refrigerant produces in the
condenser is retrieved by the indoor module's water, the
heating medium, which is heated to 55 °C (supply tem-
perature).
G
The heating medium circulates in a closed system and
transports the heated water's heat energy to the house
radiators/heating coils.
H
The indoor module’s integrated charge coil is placed in
the boiler section. The water in the coil heats up the
surrounding domestic hot water.

NIBE F2050Chapter 2 | Installation function6

F2050 is controlled in different ways depending on your
system. You control the heat pump via your indoor module
(VVM) or control module (SMO).
See the Installer Manual for the indoor module/control
module.
During installation, the installation engineer adjusts the ne-
cessary settings for the heat pump in the indoor module or
control module, so that the heat pump works optimally in
your system.
7Chapter 3 | Control of F2050NIBE F2050
Control of F2050

Regular checks
When your heat pump is located outdoors some external
maintenance is required.
NOTE
Insufficient maintenance can cause serious dam-
age to F2050, which is not covered by the guaran-
tee.
CHECKING GRILLES AND BOTTOM PANEL ON
F2050
Check regularly throughout the year that the grille is not
clogged by leaves, snow or anything else.
You should be particularly vigilant during windy conditions
and/or in the event of snow, as the grille can become
blocked.
Also check that the drain holes in the bottom panel are free
from dirt and leaves.
Regularly check that condensation is routed away correctly
through the condensation pipe. Ask your installer for assist-
ance if required.
Keep free of snow and ice

CLEANING THE OUTER CASING
If necessary the outer casing can be cleaned using a damp
cloth.
Care must be exercised so that the heat pump is not
scratched when cleaning. Avoid spraying water into the
grilles or the sides so that water penetrates into F2050.
Prevent F2050 coming into contact with alkaline cleaning
agents.
In event of long power cuts
In the event of prolonged power failures it is recommended
that the part of the heating system located outdoors is
drained. Your installer has installed a shut off and drain valve
to facilitate this. Call and ask your installer if you are unsure.
Silent mode
The heat pump can be set to "Silent mode", which reduces
the heat pump’s noise level. This function is useful when
F2050 must be placed in noise-sensitive areas. The function
should only be used for limited periods, because F2050
might not reach its dimensioned power.
Updating the software
Information about updating software can be found in the
Installer Manual for your indoor module or control module.
NIBE F2050Chapter 4 | Maintenance of F20508
Maintenance of F2050

In most cases, the indoor module/control module notes a
malfunction (a malfunction can lead to disturbance in com-
fort) and indicates this with alarms and action instructions
in the display.
NOTE
Work behind covers secured by screws may only
be carried out by, or under the supervision of, a
qualified installation engineer.
Troubleshooting
If the operational interference is not shown in the display
the following tips can be used:
BASIC ACTIONS
•Group and main fuses of the accommodation.
•The property's earth circuit breaker.
•Make sure that the air flow to F2050 is not blocked by
foreign objects.
•Check that F2050 does not have any external damage.
ICE BUILD-UP IN THE FAN, GRILLE AND/OR FAN
CONE
Set the "Fan de-icing" function in the indoor module/control
module. For more information, see the section "Control –
Heat pump EB101" in the Installer Manual.
If problems arise, contact your installer.
WATER BELOW F2050 (LARGER AMOUNT)
•Fit accessory KVR 10 to divert condensation from the
air/water heat pump.
•Check that the water drainage via the condensation pipe
(KVR 10) is working.
