Overview

The NIBE SAM 42 is a supply air module designed to work in conjunction with an exhaust air heat pump from NIBE, providing a comprehensive solution for mechanical exhaust air and pre-heated supply air in a building. It is compatible with NIBE F370 and F750 heat pumps.

Function Description

The primary function of the NIBE SAM 42 is to utilize the heat present in the building's ventilation air to warm up incoming outdoor air. This process involves the outdoor air being drawn into the supply air module through the house's ventilation system. Within the SAM 42, the air absorbs heat energy, leading to an increase in its temperature. A fan then blows this heated air into rooms equipped with supply air inlets, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate. The SAM 42 is connected to the heat pump, allowing its operational values to be monitored and read from the heat pump's display.

Usage Features

The NIBE SAM 42 is designed with user convenience in mind, offering several key features:

  • Low Noise Level: The supply air module operates with a low noise level, contributing to a quieter indoor environment.
  • Easy Installation: It is designed for straightforward installation when paired with a compatible NIBE heat pump.
  • Integrated Monitoring: Its connection to the heat pump enables users to easily access and monitor the supply air module's performance data through the heat pump's display.

Maintenance Features

Regular maintenance of the NIBE SAM 42 is minimal after commissioning, but consistent checks are recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Regular Checks

It is advisable to regularly check the installation. Should any unusual occurrences or malfunctions arise, the heat pump display will show corresponding alarm texts and messages.

Replacing the Air Filter

The air filter in the SAM 42 is not designed for cleaning and must be replaced periodically. Replacement should occur at least once a year, though more frequent changes might be necessary depending on the air's particle content and other environmental factors. The main product's display will provide a reminder to check the filter, with a factory setting for this reminder every three months. This countdown resets if the main product's power is interrupted.

To replace the filter:

  1. Switch off the main product.
  2. Remove the front hatch by pulling it straight out.
  3. Remove the cover and then withdraw the filter.
  4. Inspect the filter's condition and replace it if needed.
  5. Reassemble the components in the reverse order.

Even if the filter appears clean, it accumulates dirt that can impair its efficiency, making annual replacement crucial. New filters can be ordered through a NIBE dealer.

Venting

To vent the SAM 42, open one vent valve at a time until water emerges, then close the valve. This process helps remove air from the heating medium system, which can be a cause of low supply air temperature.

Troubleshooting Disturbances in Comfort

In most cases, a compatible NIBE heat pump will detect and indicate malfunctions that could lead to disturbances in comfort, displaying alarms and action instructions. If an operational interference is not shown, the following basic actions and tips can be used:

Basic Actions:

  • Verify that the heat pump is operating and that the supply cable to SAM 42 is connected.
  • Check the group and main fuses of the accommodation.
  • Inspect the property's earth circuit breaker.

Low Hot Water Temperature or a Lack of Hot Water:

  • This might occur if the heat pump has temporarily prioritized supply air ventilation to prevent excessively low temperatures in the supply air coil.

Low or a Lack of Ventilation:

  • Filter blocked: Change the filter as described above.
  • Ventilation not adjusted: Order a ventilation adjustment service.
  • Supply air device closed, blocked, or throttled down too much: Check the supply air inlets to ensure they are open and unobstructed.
  • External frost protection (outdoor air damper): Check its status.

High or Distracting Ventilation:

  • Filter blocked: Change the filter.
  • Ventilation not adjusted: Order a ventilation adjustment service.

Low Supply Air Temperature:

  • Air in the heating medium system: Vent the SAM 42 as described in the "Venting" section.
  • Incorrect value set in supply air automatic control system: Contact your installer for assistance.

High Supply Air Temperature:

  • Incorrect value set in supply air automatic control system: Contact your installer for assistance.
