12.2 Precautions when commissioning
INFORMATION
During the first running period of the unit, the required power may be higher than
stated on the nameplate of the unit. This phenomenon is caused by the compressor,
that needs a continuous run time of 50hours before reaching smooth operation and
stable power consumption.
NOTICE
Before starting up the system, the unit MUST be energised for at least 6hours. At
negative ambient temperatures, the compressor oil needs to be heated to avoid oil
shortage and compressor breakdown during startup.
NOTICE
ALWAYS operate the unit with thermistors and/or pressure sensors/switches. If NOT,
burning of the compressor might be the result.
12.3 Checklist before commissioning
After the installation of the unit, first check the items listed below. Once all checks
are fulfilled, the unit must be closed. Power-up the unit after it is closed.
You read the complete installation instructions, as described in the installer reference
guide.

Be sure that the field wiring has been carried out according to the instructions described in
the chapter "9Electrical installation"[487], according to the wiring diagrams and according
to the applicable legislation.
The system is properly earthed and the earth terminals are tightened.
The fuses or locally installed protection devices are installed according to this document,
and have NOT been bypassed.
