The units are tested in the factory, where they are also calibrated and
the default parameter settings are put in. These guarantee that the
appliances run correctly in rated working conditions. The machine
configuration is carried out in the factory and should never be altered.
IMPORTANT!
If a unit is used for the production of chilled water,
check the adjustment of the thermostatic valve.
II.7.2

UNIT START-UP

IMPORTANT!
Several hours before starting (at least 12), switch
on the power to the unit in order to power the
electrical heaters to heat up the compressor
crankcase. Each time the unit starts up the
crankcase heater switches off automatically.
Before starting the unit, perform the following checks:
○ The electricity power supply must comply with the specifications on
the data plate and/or the wiring diagram and it must fall within the
following limits:
 Variation of the power supply frequency: ±2 Hz.
 Variation of the power supply voltage: ±10% of the nominal voltage;
 Imbalance between the supply phases: <2%.
○ the electrical power supply must supply an adequate current for
supporting the load;
○ access the electric panel and make sure the power supply terminals
and contactors are tight (they may have loosened during transport, with
consequent risk of malfunction);
○ check that the water system inlet and outlet pipes are connected in
accordance with the arrows next to the machine water inlet/outlet;
○ Check that the air-side heat exchanger is clean and that the
airways are clear.
Electrical connections must be made in compliance with the local
installation standards in force in the place where the unit is installed,
and with the instructions in the wiring diagram provided with the unit.
For the sizing of the supply cables, refer to what is set out in the wiring
diagram.
IMPORTANT!
On three-phase models, before connecting the main
power supply cables L1-L2-L3+N to the terminals of
the general isolator, make sure that they are in the
right order.

Standard setting
The machine can be started by pressing the ON/OFF key on the
keyboard built into the machine. Using the MODE key, select an
operating mode (chiller or heat-pump). Any problems the system
encounters will be immediately shown on the display on the control
keyboard. At start-up, the first device to start in the system is the pump,
which has priority over the rest of the system. During this phase, the
minimum water flow differential pressure switch and the low pressure
switch are ignored for a preset time, in order to avoid variations caused
by air bubbles or turbulence in the water circuit or by pressure
fluctuations in the refrigerant circuit. Once these time-delays are over,
final enablement is given to the machine, followed after another safety
time-lag by the compressor.

DECOMMISSIONING THE UNIT

40°C
2°C
IMPORTANT!
3°C
Failure to use the unit during the winter period may
2°C
cause the water contained in the system to freeze.
120"
When the machine is out of use for long periods of time, it is necessary
15"
to disconnect it from the mains by opening the mains switch.
360"
All the water contained in the circuit must be drained in good time.
During installation, consider mixing the water in the circuit with the
correct proportion of ethylene glycol to guarantee protection against
freezing
II.7.4 STARTING UP AGAIN AFTER LONG PERIODS
OF INACTIVITY
Before starting up again, make sure that:
 there is no air in the water system (bleed it if necessary);
 water in the heat exchanger is circulating in the required amount.
II.8 NATURE AND FREQUENCY OF SCHEDULED
INSPECTIONS
DANGER!
Maintenance operations, even if for inspection
purposes only, must be carried out by skilled
technicians, qualified for working on air
conditioning and refrigerant products.
DANGER!
Always use the mains switch to isolate the unit
from the mains before carrying out any
maintenance work on the unit, even if it is for
inspection purposes only. Make sure that no one
accidentally supplies power to the machine, lock
the mains switch in the OFF position.
In order to guarantee that the unit runs regularly and efficiently, it is
necessary to schedule an overall inspection at regular intervals to
prevent malfunctions which could damage the main machine
components.
EVERY 6 MONTHS
 Check the gas charge.
 Check that there are no gas leaks.
 Check the power consumption of the unit.
 Check the functioning of the differential water pressure switch.
 Bleed any air from the water system.
 Check the contactors on the electric panel.
END OF SEASON with unit switched off:
 Drain the water system.
 Inspect and, if necessary, tighten the electrical contacts and
terminals
