Hydro Unit
Installation Precautions
• Ask an authorized dealer or qualified installation professional to install/maintain the Air to Water Heat Pump System.
Inappropriate installation may result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
• Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the installation manual.
An inappropriate power supply capacity or installation may result in fire.
• When completing any electrical works to the system ensure that all Local, National and International regulations are
satisfied.
Inappropriate grounding may result in electric shock.
• Use the specified electrical cables, fixing securely at all terminations.
• Earth wire connections.
• Install an earth leakage breaker without fail.
Incomplete grounding can cause electric shock.
Do not ground wires to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or telephone cable ground wires.
• This unit must be connected to the main power supply using a circuit breaker or switch with a contact separation of
at least 3 mm.
• Be sure to turn off all main power supply switches or the circuit breaker before starting any electrical work.
Ensure all power switches are off, failure to do so can cause electric shock.
Use an exclusive power circuit for the Air to Water Heat Pump system using the rated voltage.
• Ensure correct connection of interconnecting wire between Outdoor Unit and Hydro Unit.
Incorrect connection of the interconnecting cable may result in the damage of electrical parts.
• Ensure refrigeration system remains sealed to external gases and air.
Should air or other gases contaminate the refrigeration circuit, high system pressures could result in burst pipes and
injuries.
• Do not modify or bypass any of safety guards or switches in this system.
• After unpacking the outdoor unit, examine the unit carefully for any possible damage.
• Do not install in any place that might increase the vibration of the unit.
• To avoid personal injury (with sharp edges), be careful when handling parts.
• Perform installation work properly in accordance with the installation manual.
Inappropriate installation may result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
• Tighten all flare nuts with a torque wrench in the specified manner.
Excessive tightening of the flare nut may result in cracking of the pipe work or flare nut which may result in a
refrigerant leakage.
• Wear heavy duty gloves during installation work to avoid injury.
• Install the outdoor unit securely in a location where the base can sustain the weight adequately.
• In enclosed areas, if the refrigerant leaks during installation vacate and ventilate immediately.
• After installation is complete ensure and confirm that refrigerant does not leak.
If refrigerant leaks into a room and flows near a fire source noxious gas may be generated.
• Do not block any drain hoses. Hoses may come off and electric shocks may occur.
• Do not hit the manometer, because it is made of glass. It is breakable.
Notes on System Design
• The input water temperature to the Hydro Unit must be 55°C or less.
Especially, be careful when there is an external heating source such as a boiler.
When hot water over 55°C returns, it may result in a failure of the unit or water leakage.
• The flow rate of the circulating water must meet the following range.
11 and 14 kW 18 L/minute or more
8 kW 13 L/minute or more
If the flow rate becomes less than the minimum, the protective device is activated to stop operation.
Ensure the flow rate with a bypass valve, etc. when you use a flow rate valve for the Hydro Unit.
• Do not drive water by power other than the pump built in the Hydro Unit.
• The backup heater operates supplementarily to exert a prescribed capacity when the heat pump cannot exert its
capacity at a low outside temperature.
• Install the Hydro Unit and water pipes in a place in which they do not freeze.
• Make the water circuit closed. Never use it as an open circuit.
• Circulating water must be 20 liters or more. If total water amount is not enough, the unit may not function fully
due to protective operation.
