Uninhibited glycol will turn acidic under the influence of oxygen. This process is accelerated by presence of copper and at
higher temperatures. The acidic uninhibited glycol attacks metal surfaces and forms galvanic corrosion cells that cause
severe damage to the system. It is of extreme importance:
That the water treatment is correctly executed by a qualified water specialist.
That a glycol with corrosion inhibitors is selected to counteract acids formed by the oxidation of glycols.
That in case of an installation with a domestic hot water tank, only the use of propylene glycol is allowed. In other
installations the use of ethylene glycol is fine.
That no automotive glycol is used because their corrosion inhibitors have a limited lifetime and contain silicates that
can foul or plug the system;
That galvanized piping is not used in glycol systems since it may lead to the precipitation of certain elements in the
glycol’s corrosion inhibitor;
To ensure that the glycol is compatible with the materials used in the system.
3.5 Water Flow Switch
Water may enter into the flow switch and cannot be drained out and may
freeze when the temperature is low enough. The flow switch should be
removed and dried, then can be reinstalled in the unit.
Counterclockwise rotation, remove the water flow switch.
Drying the water flow switch completely.
3.6 Adding Water
Connect the water supply to the fill valve and open the valve.
Make sure the automatic air purge valve is open (at least 2 turns).
Refer to Figure 3-3.3.
Fill with water until the manometer indicates a pressure of
approximately 2.0 bars. Remove air in the circuit as much as possible
using the air purge valve. Air in the water circuit could lead to
malfunction of the backup electric heater.
3.7 Water Piping Insulation
The complete water circuit including all piping, water piping must be insulated to prevent condensation during cooling
operation and reduction of the heating and cooling capacity as well as prevention of freezing of the outside water piping
during winter. The insulation material should at least of B1 fire resistance rating and complies with all applicable legislation.
The thickness of the sealing materials must be at least 13mm with thermal conductivity 0.039W/mK in order to prevent
freezing on the outside water piping. If the outdoor ambient temperature is higher than 30°C and the humidity is higher
than RH 80%, the thickness of the sealing materials should be at least 20mm in order to avoid condensation on the surface
of the seal.

4 Electrical Wiring
4.1 General
4.2 Precautions
Fix cables so that cables do not make contact with the pipes (especially on the high pressure side).
Secure the electrical wiring with cable ties as shown in Figure 3-1.14 and Figure 3-1.15. So that it does not come in
contact with the piping, particularly on the high-pressure side.

Caution
All installation and wiring must be carried out by competent and suitably qualified, certified and accredited
professionals and in accordance with all applicable legislation.
Electrical systems should be grounded in accordance with all applicable legislation.
Overcurrent circuit breakers and residual-current circuit breakers (ground fault circuit interrupters) should be
used in accordance with all applicable legislation.
Wiring patterns shown in this data book are general connection guides only and are not intended for, or to
include all details for, any specific installation.
The water piping, power wiring and communication wiring are typically run in parallel. However the
communication wiring should not be bound together with power wiring. To prevent signal interference, the
power wiring and communication wiring should not be run in the same conduit. If the power supply is less than
10A, a separation of at least 300mm between power wiring and communication wiring conduits should be
maintained; if the power supply is in the range 10A to 50A then a separation of at least 500mm should be
maintained.
