SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
3.1 MAIN COMPONENTS
The system components of the
air sourced heat pump that
customers will receive include:
Heat pump Unit, Storage Tank
with PTRV, Controller, Heat pump
mounting legs.
Figure 2: Photo of a Reclaim Energy heat pump hot water system.
3.2 SYSTEM OPERATION
The CO2 heat pump unit receives
cold water from the bottom of
the tank. Using the heat from the
ambient air the heat pump heats
the CO2 refrigerant to generate
hot water. The hot water returning
fromtheheatpumpunit(xed
at63C)isinjectedintothetop
of the tank to provide fast hot
water recovery and excellent hot
waterstratication.Asthissystem
delivershotwaterexceeding50
C,atemperingvalvemustbe
installed for delivery of hot water
to bathrooms. Untempered water
may be delivered to kitchen and
laundry according to AU/NZS AS
3500plumbingcode.
The heat pump operation is
controlled by an external controller.
The controller operates based on
a sensor connected to the tank
at55–69%leveldependingon
tank model i.d. The heat pump will
be turned on if the temperature at
the sensor level on the tank drops
below59Cfortherstcycleor37C
for the second cycle in a day and it
will be run until the tank temperature
atsensorlevelreaches59C.The
system controls are designed to
ensure that it meets the legionella
requirementsasspeciedinthe
Australian standards. The heat
pump will run until the sensor level
onthetankreaches59C.Inthe
subsequent heating cycles of every
24-hour period, the heat pump “turn
off”logicisadjustablebybuilt-in
timer settings.
The default timer setting is
programmed to run on continuous
operationbutthiscanbeadjusted
by the installer based on the home
owner requirements to suit their
needs. More details regarding the
controller operation and settings is
outlinedinSection5.
At ambient temperatures below
5.5C,frostingmayoccur,ifthis
happens the heat pump will go into
defrost mode in order to protect the
unit (i.e. this defrost functionality
will turn the heat pump on and will
normallyrunfornomorethan15
minutes in duration).
When the unit is in the defrost
function the pump and fan will
stop and the refrigerant heat will
defrost the evaporator. As the
defrost advances, the evaporator
temperature will increase.
When a set temperature (pre-
programmed) is achieved, the
defrost operation stops and the
heat pump will operate in line with
its normal settings.
The following system description section provides a brief overview of the
the Air-Source CO2 Hot Water Pump’s main components and functionality.

5.4 CONTROLLER
Please note that this controller has 4 cable
grommets and glands as shown in Figure 17. The
spare cable gland provided is not functional in this
version of system. The power cable and sensor lead
arealreadyprewired,sotheinstallerjustneedsto
mount the controller on the tank. It is recommended
that the installer follow the steps bellows:
1 Mounting on the controller on the tank is the
rstrecommendation.Ifthisisnotpossiblethen
theinstallershouldndanalternatexturefor
the control unit that is in close proximity to the
storage tank and heat pump unit. Note that the
controller should be wired to the power socket,
the sensor socket on the tank, and the PCB
boardontheheatpump.TheRJcableand
sensorleadare10and2mlong,respectively.
The controller box is waterproof, but DO NOT
install the controller under the PTRV valve or
where there is a risk of water leaking.
2 Open the controller lead, mount and screw it
on the tank wall per instructions given in this
section.
3 AttachanotherendofRJ45cabletotheheat
pump PCB.
4 Attach the sensor lead to the sensor socket on
the tank.
5 Pluginthepowercable-butONLY turn the
power on after following the instructions of
Section5.5.
