FIGHTER 2005

For the Installer
The heating medium system is filled with water to the
required pressure. Vent the system using the venting
nipple on the enclosed flexible hose and possibly the
circulation pump.
Before commissioning, check that the heating circuit is
filled and well vented. Check the pipe work for leaks.

Preparations
NOTE!
The compressor must not be forced to
start with periods shorter than 1 start
per 15 minutes.
NOTE!
The compressor heater must have
been connected for 6-8 hours before
the first start, see the section “Start-up
and inspection”.
FIGHTER 2005 is equipped with a soft-start relay (97)
that limits the inrush current for the compressor.
The compressor must not be forced to start with peri-
ods shorter than 1 start per 15 minutes.
The balance temperature is the outdoor temperature
when the heat pump’s stated output is equal to the
building’s output requirement. This means that the
heat pump covers the whole building’s output require-
ment down to this temperature. Setting of the balance
temperature, additional heat, is made on channel 17.
When using a standard radiator system and with hot
water heating the stop temperature should not fall
below -7 °C. The setting of the stop temperature,
downtime, is done on channel 18.

FIGHTER 2005 is equipped with a compressor heater
that heats the compressor before start-up and when
the compressor is cold. The compressor must have
been switched on for 6-8 hours before the FIRST start,
see the section Start-up and inspection.
Compressor heater
Soft-start relay
■Modular cable (44) or thermostat/strap, terminal
(30) is disconnected.
■The working switch is turned on.
■Check that all incoming phases are energized.
■Check that the miniature circuit-breaker (2) is on.
■The compressor heater (25) must have been oper-
ational for at least 6 hours before the compressor
start can be initiated. This is done by switching on
the control voltage and disconnecting the modular
cable and thermostat/strap.
■ The display on the control card (34) shows C0/CC
F0 H1/H3 depending on the outdoor temperature.
During this period the compressor is heated to
increase the service life.
■After 6-8 hours the modular cable, external
thermostats or strap on the input for hot water
and/or input for single step or double step ther-
mostat are connected. See the sections, Electri-
cal connections - Hot water thermostat, Single step
thermostat heating.
■Restart SMO 10 if necessary.
■Once the connection is made, the compressor
starts after approx. 20 minutes.
■Adjust the charge flow according to the diagram,
see the section Adjustment, charge flow
■Fill in the commissioning report on page 2.
Start-up and inspection
NOTE!
The live external control must be
taken into consideration when
connecting.
Air is initially released from the hot water and venting
may be necessary. If bubbling sounds can be heard
from the heat pump, the circulation pump and radia-
tors the entire system requires further venting. When
the system has stabilised (correct pressure and all the
air removed) the heating controls can be set at the
required values.
