Atlantic Alfea Extensa A.I. User Manual

" Installation
and maintenance regulations
The appliance must be installed and maintained by
an approved professional in accordance with current
regulations and codes of practice.
" Handling
The outdoor unit must not be placed in a horizontal
position during transport.
If not kept upright during transport, the appliance could
be damaged through displacement of the refrigerant
and damage to the compressor suspension.
Any damage caused by transportation in a horizontal
position is not covered by the warranty.
If necessary, the outdoor unit may be tilted only during
manual handling (to go through a door or up a staircase).
This operation must be conducted very carefully and the
appliance must be immediately restored to the upright
position.
" Containment of refrigeration circuits
All refrigeration circuits are sensitive to contamination
from dust and moisture. If such pollutants penetrate the
refrigeration circuit, they can a󰀨ect the reliability of the
heat pump.
" Make sure that the connections and refrigeration
circuits (hydraulic unit, outdoor unit) are
protected correctly.
" In the event of a subsequent failure and following
an inspection, the presence of moisture or
foreign bodies in the compressor oil would
automatically void the warranty.
- Check upon receipt that the ttings and refrigeration
circuit caps mounted on hydraulic unit and outdoor unit
are properly seated and secured (cannot be loosened
with bare hands). If this is not the case, tighten them
using a C spanner.
- Check also that the refrigeration connections are
sealed (plastic caps or tubes crimped at the ends
and brazed). If the caps must be removed during the
installation (tubes to be re-cut for example), put them
back as soon as possible.
" Hydraulic connections
The connection must comply with industry standard
practice according to current regulations.
Remember: Seal everything when tting in accordance
with industry standard practice for plumbing work:
- Use suitable seals (bre gasket, O-ring).
- Use Teon or hemp tape.
- Use sealing paste (synthetic depending on the case).
Use glycol/water mix if the minimum ow temperature
is set below 10°C. If you are using a glycol/water
mix, arrange for an annual check on the quality
of the glycol. Use monopropylene glycol only.
The recommended concentration is 30% minimum.
Never use monoethylene glycol.
Remember: The presence at installation of a
CB-type disconnection function, for preventing heating
water being returned to the drinking water system, is
required by articles 16.7 and 16.8 of the Local Plumbing
Regulations.
" In some installations, the presence of di󰀨erent
metals can cause corrosion problems; the
formation of metal particles and sludge can
appear in the hydraulic circuit.
" In this case, it is advisable to use a corrosion
inhibitor in the proportions indicated by the
manufacturer.
- Please refer to the chapter "Treatment of domestic
and heating water" in our price catalogue.
" You must also ensure that treated water does
not become corrosive.
