Pipe installation must be carried out by an authorized installer. 
The installation must be carried out according to the appli-
cable building regulations.
  Cold and hot water lines and overflow lines from safety valves 
must be made of heat resistant and anti-corrosive material, 
e.g. copper. The safety valve’s overflow lines must have an 
open connection with the outlet and be visible in a frost free 
environment.
  ⚠
NOTE! The tank must be connected to an expansion tank 
and safety valve in such a way that the connection cannot 
be shut off.
1.5  Temperature
  Highest permitted temperature on DWH primary side is 100°C. 
On the secondary side the temperature is limited to 90-95°C 
due to the factory installed safety valve for temperature and 
pressure.
2  Maintenance
2.1  Water temperature
  According to the building regulations, output hot water tem-
perature must not exceed 65°C. At higher tank temperatures 
the mixing valve can be installed to limit the output hot water 
temperature.
  Output temperature should be kept as low as possible, alt-
hough +45°C at the lowest at the tap.
  The lower the temperature in the system the lower the heat 
losses from the pipes and valves.
2.2  Safety valve
The safety valve is protection against the over pressure in the 
closed hot water tank and must therefore be regularly inspected.
  The safety valve can be checked by turning the cap until the 
valve lets out some water through the overflow pipe. This 
must be carried out at least four times a year.
  If a safety valve does not work properly, it must be replaced. 
CONTACT AN AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN!
  If the safety valve is not checked regularly, the hot water tank 
might be damaged. 
  It is quite normal for the safety valve to let out small amounts 
of water when the hot water tank is being charged, especially 
if a lot of hot water was used previously. The opening pressure 
of the safety valves is not adjustable.
  The safety valve is mounted on the cold water inlet line, hori-
zontally with its outlet opening facing downwards. 
2.3  Water quality
The indirect heating of the water for consumption is an advan-
tage, which makes Danfoss DWH suitable in areas with high cal-
cium levels in the water. In installations where the water comes 
from a well the water should be checked to ensure that it cannot 
cause damage to the hot water installation.
  Stainless steel tanks and pipes should not be exposed to water 
with high chloride levels.
  ⚠
With very poor water quality, a water filter must be instal-
led in the installation. A water analysis will provide indica-
tion of any necessary remedial actions.
2.4  Sensors
When DWH is installed in conjunction with DHP-L connect the 
sensors in the water heater to the following connections:
  Sensor hot-water – 311-312
  Sensor hot-water top – 325-3262.4  Minimum headroom
2.5  Minimum headroom
