4 Appliance description
The buffer cylinder and DHW cylinder with indirect coil are ar-
ranged one on top of the other. The indirect coil transfers the
heat of the heating water from the heat pump to the DHW.
The appliance is connected hydraulically and electrically to the
heat pump. In addition to the DHW cylinder and the buffer cylin-
der, further system components are integrated:
– Cylinder charging pump
– 3/2-way heating diverter valve
– Highly efficient circulation pump for a heating circuit
without mixer
– Heat pump manager
DHW cylinder
The heating water heated by the heat pump is pumped through
an indirect coil inside the DHW cylinder. The heat channelled
through the indirect coil is thus transferred to the domestic hot
water. The integral heat pump manager regulates the DHW
heating to the required temperature.
Buffer cylinder
The steel cylinder provides hydraulic separation between the
flow rates of heat pump and heating circuit. The heating water
heated by the heat pump is transferred into the buffer cylinder
by the cylinder charging pump. When a demand is issued, the
integral circulation pump delivers the heating water to the heat-
ing circuit.
Heat pump manager (WPM)
The system is controlled by means of the integral heat pump
manager.
The heat pump manager is suitable for the control of a direct
heating circuit and a heating circuit with mixer.
You can set the times and temperatures for heating operation
and DHW heating.
uPlease observe the instructions for the heat pump manager.

Heating circuit oxygen diffusion
NOTICE
Property damage
In underfloor heating systems with plastic pipes that
are permeable to oxygen and in open vented heating
systems, oxygen diffusion may lead to corrosion on
the steel components of the heating system (e.g. on
the indirect coil of the DHW cylinder, on buffer cylin-
ders, steel radiators or steel pipes).
uAvoid open vented heating systems and under-
floor heating systems with plastic pipes that are
permeable to oxygen.
NOTICE
Property damage
The products of corrosion (e.g. rusty sludge) can
settle in the heating system components, which may
result in a lower output or fault shutdowns due to re-
duced cross-sections.
Supply lines
The maximum permissible line length between the appliance
and the heat pump will vary, depending on the version of the
heating system (pressure drop). As a standard value, assume a
maximum line length of 10m and a pipe diameter of 22-28mm.
uProtect the flow and return lines against frost with sufficient
thermal insulation. The thermal insulation must be at least
twice as thick as the diameter of the pipe. Provide thermal
insulation in accordance with applicable regulations.
uAlso protect all supply lines against humidity, damage and
UV radiation by means of a conduit.
Pressure differential:
If the available external pressure difference is exceeded, the
pressure drop in the heating system could result in a reduced
heating output.
uWhen sizing the pipes, ensure that the available external
pressure differential is not exceeded (see chapter Data table
[}13] ).
uWhen calculating the pressure drops, take account of the
flow and return lines and the pressure drop of the heat
pump. The pressure drop must be covered by the available
pressure differential.
7.5.1 Installing the heating water line
uUse suitable pipes.
uUse a suitable thread sealant.
uSeal off unused connection apertures.
uNOTICE:Foreign bodies, such as welding pearls, rust or
sealing material, can impair the operational reliability of
the appliance. Flush the pipework thoroughly before con-
necting the appliance.
uInstall suitable pipes at the connections for the radiator and
heat pump circuits (see chapter Installation example
[}13] ).

DHW cylinder
Fault Possible cause Remedy
The safety valve is
dripping. The pressure is too high. Install an expansion vessel to accom-
modate for any ex-
pansion during
heating. Install a
pressure reducer for
stable pressure in
the water lines. Ad-
just the pressure re-
ducer according to
the pressure in the
expansion vessel.
The safety valve is
worn. Flush the safety valve with water.
Open the safety
valve for one
minute. Close the
safety valve. If the
safety valve contin-
ues to drip, replace
it.

between the dia-
phragm and the
safety valve seat.
Water is leaking in-
termittently from the
tundish.
The high limit safety
cut-out, thermostat
or T&P valve is not
working correctly.
Isolate the appliance
from the power sup-
ply. Close the cold
water inlet. Open a
DHW valve on a
draw-off point.
Open the T&P valve.
Leave the T&P valve
in this position for
30seconds. Close
the T&P valve.
Check the pre-
charge pressure of
the expansion ves-
sel. If required, ad-
just the pre-charge
pressure (see
chapter Mainten-
ance (qualified con-
tractors) [}9] ).
Open the cold water
inlet. If water is
flowing through the
open DHW valve,
close the DHW valve.
Switch on the power
supply again.
