5.7 - Minimum water volume
Wichever the system, the water loop minimum capacity is given
by the table below:

ATTENTION: Minimum water volume required between the unit
and possible customer-supplied valves to the outside of the unit.
Industrial process applications
Certain industrial processes may require high leaving water
stability. In these cases the values above must be increased.
It may be necessary to add a buffer water tank to the circuit in
order to achieve the required volume. The tank must itself be
internally  bafed  in order  to ensure  proper mixing  of  the liquid 
(water or brine). Refer to the examples below.

5.8 - Maximum water loop volume (evaporator
and condenser side)
Units with hydraulic module incorporate an expansion tank sized
for the maximum water loop volume.
5.9 - Expansion tank
The expansion tank is supplied with a pressure of 1 bar relative
(±20%). The maximum operating pressure for the tank is 4 bar.
5.10 - Protection against cavitation (option 116)
To ensure the durability of the pumps in the integrated hydraulic
modules, the control algorithm of the units incorporates anti-
cavitation protection.
It is therefore necessary to ensure a minimum pump entering
pressure of 60 kPa (0.6 bar) during operation and at shut-down.
A pressure below 60 kPa will prohibit unit start-up or cause an
alarm with the unit shutting down.
In order to obtain sufcient pressure, it is recommended:
- to pressurise the hydraulic circuit between 100 kPa and 300
kPa (1 and 3 bar) maximum on the suction side of the pump,
- to clean the hydraulic circuit before charging water,
- to regularly clean the screen lter.
