1.4 Units of measurement
Note All measurements are given in mm unless stated oth-

2. Safety
2.1 Intended use
This appliance is designed for the storage of heating water and for
DHW heating. A glycol/water mixture of up to 60% is permitted
if only dezincification-resistant metals, glycol-resistant gaskets
and diaphragm expansion vessels suitable for glycol are used
throughout the installation.
Any other or additional use is inappropriate, in particular usage
with alternative storage media. Observation of these instructions
and of instructions for any accessories used is also part of the
correct use of this appliance..
2.2 Safety information
WARNING Burns There is a risk of scalding at outlet temperatures in ex-
cess of 43 °C.
!WARNING Injury
The appliance may be used by children aged 8 and up and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capa-
bilities or a lack of experience and know-how provided
that they are supervised or they have been instructed
on how to use the appliance safely and have understood
the resulting risks. Children must never play with the
appliance. Children must never clean the appliance or
perform user maintenance unless they are supervised.
!Material damage
The appliance is under pressure.
During the heating process, expansion water will drip
from the safety valve. If water continues to drip when
heating is completed, please inform your heating con-
tractor.
2.3 Test symbols
See type plate on the appliance.
3. Appliance description
DThe appliance combines DHW heating and a buffer cylinder for
the hydraulic separation of heating system and heat pump. The
DHW is heated via a corrugated stainless steel internal indirect
coil that functions like an instantaneous water heater. The volume
of the cylinder is an energy store for DHW heating.
The appliance is ideally suited to operation with a heat pump.
In addition, a threaded immersion heater and an auxiliary heat
source can be connected.
SBS W SOL
These appliance types are also equipped with an internal indirect
coil for solar DHW heating and central heating backup.
4. Cleaning, care and maintenance
 Have the function of the safety assembly and electrical safety
of the fitted special accessories regularly checked by a heat-
ing contractor/electrician.
 Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp
cloth is sufficient for cleaning the appliance.
4.1 Scaling
 Almost every type of water deposits limescale at high tem-
peratures. This settles inside the appliance and affects both
the performance and service life. If a flanged immersion
heater is installed, the heating elements must be descaled
from time to time. A heating contractor who knows the local
water quality will tell you when the next service is due.
 Check the taps regularly. You can remove limescale deposits
at the tap outlets using commercially available descaling
agents.
Regularly activate the safety valve to prevent it from becom-
ing blocked e.g. by limescale deposits.
5. Troubleshooting
Fault Cause Remedy
The outlet flow rate
is low.
The perlator in the tap or
shower head is scaled up
or contaminated.
Clean and/or descale the
perlator or the show-
er head.
If you cannot remedy the fault, notify your heating contractor. To
facilitate and speed up your enquiry, please provide the serial
number from the type plate (no. 000000-0000-000000):

Note Observe all applicable national and regional regulations
and instructions.
6.3 Water installation
6.3.1 Cold water line
Steel or copper pipes or plastic pipework are approved materials.
!Material damage
A safety valve is required.
6.3.2 DHW line
Copper, stainless steel or plastic pipework are approved materials.
!Material damage
Beim gleichzeitigen Einsatz von Kunststoff-Rohrsystemen
If a flanged immersion heater is fitted and plastic pipe-
work systems are used at the same time, observe the
maximum permissible temperature/ the maximum per-
missible pressure in chapter “Specification/ Data table”.
!Material damage
Operate the appliance only with pressure-tested taps and
valves.
7. Appliance description
7.1 Standard delivery
Delivered with the appliance:
- 2x temperature sensors
- 2x heat conducting paste
- additional type plate
7.2 Accessories
Depending on the static pressure, safety assemblies and pressure
reducing valves are available. These type-tested safety assemblies
protect the appliance against unacceptable excess pressure.
Flanged immersion heaters, circulation set and thermal insulation
are available as accessories.
8. Assembly
8.1 Installation location
 Ensure the floor has a sufficient load bearing capacity (see
chapter “Specification/ Data table”).
 Ensure the floor is level.
 Check the height of the room and of the unit when tilted (see
chapter “Specification/ Data table”).
Minimum clearances
≥200 ≥210
≥200≥200
≥800
D0000057346
 Maintain the minimum clearances.
8.2 Transport

Installation
Commissioning
8.3 Assembly
8.3.1 Fitting the thermal insulation, if appropriate.
 Position the appliance in its intended site.
 Fit the thermal insulation according to the instructions sup-
plied. For this, ensure that there is enough space for the
installation task. You can then link the appliance into the
heating and DHW system.
8.3.2 Installing the manual air vent valve
26�03�01�0973
 Install a manual air vent valve at the air vent valve
connection.
8.3.3 Fitting the water connection and the safety assembly
!Material damage
Carry out all water connection and installation work in
accordance with regulations.
 Flush the line thoroughly.
 Observe the information in the installation instructions of the
safety assembly.
 Connect the DHW outlet and the cold water inlet lines with
the safety assembly. Bear in mind that, depending on the
static pressure, you may also need a pressure reducing valve.
 Size the drain so that water can drain off unimpeded when
the safety valve is fully opened. The blow-off aperture of the
safety valve must remain open towards the atmosphere.
 Fit the blow-off line of the safety assembly with a constant
slope.
8.3.4 Inserting the temperature sensors
 Apply heat conducting paste to the temperature sensors.
 Insert the temperature sensors as far as they will go into the
connections for HP return sensor and HP DHW sensor (see
chapter „Specification / Dimensions and connections“).
9. Commissioning
 Open a downstream draw-off point until the appliance has
filled up and the pipes are free of air.
 Vent the indirect coils after filling the heat pump system.
 Fit the accessories and check them if necessary.
 Check the function of the safety valve.
9.3.1 Water quality, solar circuit
A glycol/water mixture of up to 60% is permitted for the indirect
coil in the solar circuit if only dezincification-resistant metals,
glycol-resistant gaskets and diaphragm expansion vessels suitable
for glycol are used throughout the installation.
9.3.2 Oxygen diffusion
!Material losses
Avoid open heating systems and plastic pipes in under-
floor heating systems which are permeable to oxygen.
In underfloor heating systems with plastic pipes that are per-
meable 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 cylinders, steel heating elements or steel pipes).
!Material losses
The products of corrosion (e.g. rusty sludge) can settle in
the heating system components and can result in a lower
output or fault shutdowns due to reduced cross-sections.
!Material losses
Avoid open vented solar thermal systems and plastic
pipes which are permeable to oxygen.
With plastic pipes that are permeable to oxygen, oxygen diffusion
may lead to corrosion on the steel components of the solar thermal
system (e.g. on the indirect coil of the DHW cylinder).
10. Taking the appliance out of use
 Disconnect the appliance from the mains at the MCB/fuse in
the fuse box.
 Drain the appliance. See chapter “Maintenance / Draining the
appliance”.
11. Recommissioning
See chapter “Commissioning”.

full water jet is discharged.
14.2 Draining the appliance
WARNING Burns Hot water may escape during the draining process.
If the heating system is not in operation and the installation loca-
tion is not protected against frost, the appliance and connected
system must be emptied.
 For draining the appliance, remove the thermal insulation
around the drain connector.
 Close the shut-off valve in the cold water line.
 Open the hot water taps on all draw-off points.
