During normal operation the maximum capacity is:
▪ 3kW for a 230V, 1N~unit
▪ 6kW for a 400V, 3N~unit
The maximum capacity of the backup heater can be limited. The set value depends
on the used voltage (see table below) and is then the maximum capacity during
emergency operation.

Emergency
Emergency
When the heat pump fails to operate, the backup heater can serve as an
emergency heater. It then takes over the heat load either automatically or by
manual interaction.
▪ When Emergency is set to Automatic and a heat pump failure occurs, the
backup heater automatically takes over the domestic hot water production and
space heating.
▪ When Emergency is set to Manual and a heat pump failure occurs, the
domestic hot water heating and space heating stops.
To manually recover it via the user interface, go to the Malfunctioning main
menu screen and confirm whether the backup heater can take over the heat load
or not.
▪ Alternatively, when Emergency is set to:
- auto SH reduced/DHW on, space heating is reduced but domestic hot
water is still available.
- auto SH reduced/DHW off, space heating is reduced and domestic hot
water is NOT available.
- auto SH normal/DHW off, space heating operates as normally but
domestic hot water is NOT available.
Similarly as in Manual mode, the unit can take the full load with the backup
heater if the user activates this via the Malfunctioning main menu screen.
To keep energy consumption low, we recommend to set Emergency to auto SH
reduced/DHW off if the house is unattended for longer periods.
