6 - START-UP
6.1 - PRELIMINARY CHECKS
The indicated operations should be done by qualified technician with specific training on the product.
Upon request, the service centres performing the start-up.
The electrical, water connections and the other system works are by the installer.
Agree upon in advance the star-up data with the service centre.
Before checking, please verify the following:
•
the unit should be installed properly and in conformity with this manual
•
the electrical power supply line should be isolated at the beginning
•
the unit isolator is open, locked and equipped with the suitable warning
•
make sure no tension is present
After turning off the power, wait at least 5 minutes before accessing to the electrical panel or any other electrical component.
Before accessing check with a multimeter that there are no residual stresses.
6.2 - PRELIMINARY CHECKS
The following check list is a brief reminder of the points to check and of the operations to perform to start-up the unit.
For details on the points mentioned in the check list refer to various chapters of the manual.
Preliminary checks
Are the functional spaces of the internal unit and the energy
1
exchanger being observed ?
Is the section of the cooling lines correct ? Have the supplied
2
sealing couplings been used ?
Does the equivalent length of the refrigerant piping exceed 20
3
m or 50 m? (depending on the unit's magnitude)
Is the height different of the refrigerant piping below 15 m or 25
4
m? (depending on the unit's magnitude)
5
Are there siphons every 6 m going back up on the gas line ?
Have emptying and additional load been carried out ? Was
6
there a visual check for oil / leaks ?
Water features are suitable? The hydraulic system has been
7
cleaned?
8
Is the water filter from the waterworks inlet correctly installed ?
9
Are the inlet and outlet of the water lines correct ?
10
Is there a non-return valve on the DHW recirculation line?
If there are intercepting units present (heads/valves), are the
11
unit circulator/s in arrest due to lack of water flow ?
How was the system created ? Is there a minimum water
12
content in circulation ?
Are the anti-vibration joints on the hydraulic connections
13
present ?
Was the system loaded, placed under pressure and was the air
14
let out ?
15
Have you verified the expansion tank charge ?
16
Is the solar installation present? The circuit is charged?
Was the condensate produced by the external unit drained
17
correctly ? Can it freeze ?
Is the capacity of air to the external unit adequate ? Is there air
18
recirculation ?

19
made ?
20
Earthing connection?
21
RCW15 Remote control is correctly installed? (Only if present)
Have optional electrical connections been made ? (summer/
22
winter, second set, etc....)
Is the power supply correct ?
23
Is the available power supply sufficient ?
Are the system temperature and the room temperature with the
24
operating limits ?
25
Is the screed "dry" ? (only in presence of radiant panels)
