INSTALLATION
If the unit is placed in a narrow room or in the ridge of a gable roof, the fan outlet side can be installed at the
short side of the unit.
This can be done simply by reversing the dark panels. The fan panel is moved around to the short side of the
unit. Loosening the corner bracket will eliminate the need for disconnecting cable connections.
It is important, however, to release the outlet air to the fan.
Fan installation (front / side)
Installation
To guarantee proper air suction, leave at least 15cm of space between the wall and the backside of the unit,
where the carbon & dust lters and air inlet are located. At least 15cm of space should also be left between the
topside of the unit and the ceiling. Larger spaces are preferred. The unit must stand free from the wall to avoid
contact noises.

1 cm mas fall
INSTALLATION
The unit should be mounted in such a way that the side of the condensation drain is at least 1 cm lower than
the other side (slope) to ensure that the condensate drains properly. In practice, the 1 cm elevations at all
corners – except the corner of the condensate drains – are exactly right for a correct fall. Using a spirit level is
recommended.
To avoid contact noises, the OptiClimate is delivered with rubber shock absorbers as standard issue, that are
suitable for suspended installation. If the OptiClimate is going to be placed on a solid base, the rubber shock
absorbers supplied with the connection set need to be used.
Special insulating springs can also be supplied for areas that have to be extra quiet. Placing the insulating
springs on the supports will ensure that the unit has automatic fall to the condensation drain.
The rubber feet with which the OptiClimate is placed on the pallet are use to suspend the unit by means of
thread ends.
A thread end, a large washer and a nut must be tted. (not supplied)

First, the panel at the left side near the manometer should be removed to make the various electrical connec-
tions.
A ve-core cable, automatic moisture meter, remote control and temperature sensor are supplied with the unit.
Their cables can be led to the outside through the opening at the bottom of the panel. The power cable for the
power supply can be led through the black feed-through rubber at the side of the unit.

Alarm port
The printed circuit-board has an alarm port, which is activated (makes contact) in case of a malfunction (error).
This contact can be connected to a GSM detector. The contact can be set to NO (contact open) or NC (con-
tact closed) using the Settings menu. This means that the contact will be opened or closed in case of detection.
See the manual of the GSM detector or alarm for this.
Automatic moisture meter with light cell
The automatic moisture meter with built-in light cell supplied with the unit is already connected. The cable should
be led through the opening in the panel. The automatic moisture meter should be hung in the room and may
NOT be covered.
The light cell in the automatic moisture meter automatically switches the OptiClimate from day to night mode.
Room temperature sensor
The room temperature sensor should be suspended in the space to be cooled. The sensor should be protected
against heat radiation but may not be put in the shade. A protective cover over the sensor is sufcient.
The remote control
The remote control contained in the compartment can be hung
in the room but can also be hung elsewhere. This way the
OptiClimate can also be controlled from outside the room. The
four-core cable is already connected and should be led to the
outside through the opening in the panel.
Five-core cable
A ve-core cable is included to power the outdoor unit, and to connect the temperature sensor in the outdoor
unit to the indoor unit. The ve-core cable is connected to the terminal strip in the indoor unit and the white junc-
tion box on the outdoor unit or, with the larger units, on the power strip behind the terminal cover. The ve-core
cable should be fed into the panel through the opening, and be connected to the indoor unit as follows.

The cables for the supply voltage should be led through the feed-through rubber at the side and connected to
the lefthand side of the terminal strip as described in the illustration. The earthing can be connected to the PE
terminal or to the screw on the metal housing at the bottom right of the terminal strip.

Note: Failure to observe the above description can cause irreparable damage to compressor/ inverter.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
When connecting the inverter models to 3 phase 400volt, there may not be any bridges between L1, L2 and
L3. There may also not be a bridge between N and D. With a new unit, the bridges are always connected.

Using this safeguard, the OptiClimate can switch off the heat sources (e.g. lamps) when the temperature in
a room becomes too high. The unit has a terminal that can be connected to the timer of a control panel, for
example. The feed wire running to the switch in the timer should be interrupted for this purpose. Terminal 1, for
example, is for a Grasslin clock and terminal 4 for a LeGrand timer.

The two ends should be connected to terminals 15 & 16 on the terminal strip in the electrical compartment of
the OptiClimate. The OptiClimate supplies the power for the timer.
The OptiClimate supplies the power for the timer. If the room temperature exceeds 35°C, the OptiClimate will
interrupt the circuit, switching off the heat sources. ERROR 15 is then displayed on the remote control.
Always refer to the timer manufacturer’s manual if a model other than the one shown
is used.

INSTALL / CONNECT THE OUTDOOR UNIT
Installing outdoor unit
The outdoor unit should preferably be installed in the open in a cool place (shade), where the unit can suck in
air. Leave enough space around the unit to ensure proper air ow. If the air passing through the outdoor unit is
warmer, the capacity decreases. If the ambient air exceeds 40°C, an error E:16 occurs. The unit will simply
continue to work.
If the outdoor unit is placed near a wall, make sure that the fan blows away from the wall. The fan sucks air
through the outdoor unit.
Refrigerant hose connections
2 refrigerant hoses are included. A hose has a large diameter and is connected to the connector “steam” (abo-
ve) of the indoor unit. The other hose has a slightly smaller diameter and is connected to the “liquid” connector
(below).
On the outdoor unit, the hoses should be connected as indicated on the stickers.
Connecting a ve-core cable to the outdoor unit
The outdoor unit has a white waterproof terminal box. The ve-core cable coming from the indoor unit should
be connected in this.

Note: Refrigerant hoses may not be kinked or installed at an acute angle. If they are kinked even briey, they
must be thrown away, a 100% leak will occur at this kink. The hoses must be placed at and must not be pu-
lled. The hoses may not be shortened or extended self. The connections on both the indoor and the outdoor unit
should rst be tightened by hand. After this, the connections are tightened with two spanners, do not tighten too
hard. The hoses should be supported, they may not hang on the indoor or outdoor unit, if they hang they will
buckle under their own weight.

WATER-SIDED CONNECTIONS
Discharge of the condensation water
The unit will also dehumidify the air during cooling. The moisture extracted from the air comes into the conden-
sation drain. The condensation drain is connected to a sturdy garden hose or a pipeline that does not bend
easily. The condensation water drips from the hose, which can be connected to the drain pipe. The condensate
can also be used as feed water. The cooling block has been adjusted to prevent metals or oxides from entering
the condensate. This is ideal when the only feed water available is hard water.
The drain pipe of the condensation water may not have loops and may not be put under the water level in a
drum. If the unit is installed at the same level or lower than the drain or sewer, a condensation lift pump can
collect the water.
This small lift pump pumps the water through a hose of 9mm to a height of 4 metres into the drain. Stronger
pumps are also available.
The drain to the pump must not be under the water level and the pipe may not have loops as shown above.
It’s possible that too much air is sucked in through the condensation water pipe causing the condensate water
not to drain properly.
Then there is too much resistance in the intake system. Dimension hoses of e.g. a plenum box as large as
possible and ensure that during operation all panels are mounted on the unit. A special syphon can also be
mounted. Ask your dealer.
