Application examples with 2 or more different heat
emitters and 1 heat source (RKHBRD unit)
Using different heat emitters means using different water set points
for the system.
Such installations must be done using a balancing bottle and each
kind of heat emitter should have a specific pump.

Application 4
Space heating provided through a combination of floor heating
loops, fan coil unit and radiator heating. For floor heating
applications in combination with radiators the water temperature
delivered by the Rotex system is too high. For this reason a
temperature reducing device (field supply) is required to lower
the water temperature (the hot water will be mixed with cold
water to lower the temperature). The control of this field supplied
valve is not done by the heat pump system. The operation and
configuration of the field water circuit and selection of the
balancing bottle, the pumps, etc..., are the responsibility of the
installer. Rotex only offers the possibility to have multiple set
points on request.
■ Pattern A
The domestic hot water tank is installed in parallel with the
temperature reducing device(s). This allows operating the
unit in space heating and domestic water heating
simultaneously. The balancing of the water distribution is in
this case the responsibility of the installer.

■ Pattern B
The domestic hot water tank is installed in a separate circuit
(with a 3-way valve) of the temperature reducing device(s).
This configuration does not allow simultaneous domestic hot
water and space heating operation.
