INSTALLATION LOCATION

Please note the following when choosing the installation location:
• The appliance must be installed in a dry, frost-free room. The
supply air temperature must be between -10 °C and 35 °C in
order to optimize the appliance performance.
• The appliance must be installed on a sufficiently strong and level
surface.
• The air outlet and air inlet must not be in locations where there is
a risk of explosion cause by gas, steam or dust.
• Ensure that condensate drains correctly.
• The surface below the appliance must be strong enough (the
appliance weighs about 400 kg when the cylinder is filled, with
the weight distributed equally over its 3 adjustable feet).
• The VHW must be installed in an easy accessible room in order
to make maintenance and removal at the end of the lifetime
possible.
If the appliance only has one duct (inlet & outlet duct), its operation
may create negative or positive pressure in the installation room.
If other appliances are already installed in the same place, please
bear in mind that the appliance requires a clearance of at least 220
cm2 for the air inlet and outlet in order to operate correctly.
Note: The clearance of 220 cm2 is required for the correct
functioning of the heat pump only.
To ensure faultless operation and easy access to all components
and connections for service and maintenance, maintain the
minimum clearances specified in figure 1.
Installing the appliance
•
Remove external protective packaging.
• Lift the appliance from its pallet and position it on its final plinth.
Watch out for damaging the metal hood of the HP-unit. Only lift at
the vessel part!
• To correctly align the appliance at the installation location, adjust
the height of the adjustable feet.
• Assure correct positioning of all temperature sensors, see figure
2 and 3.
To ensure that the system operates faultlessly and the condensate
drains correctly, the appliance must be aligned vertically. The
appliance must tilt 1°, into the direction of the condensate drain.
NOTICE: Possible damage to external casing!
!
•
Do not tilt the appliance on his feet more than 20°.
• Place a tray below underneath the VHW, when it is placed above
a room.
