Note
If the 4/3-way valve is faulty, no voltage is present.
This means that the 4/3-way valve is in the 0 % to
< 5 % position. Therefore, only heating/cooling circuit 1
is supplied.
Minimum flow rates
■
Between the indoor and outdoor unit:
Using the 4/3-way valve, a minimum flow rate of
> 300 l/h is set under all operating conditions.
■
Heating/cooling circuits:
Using the 4/3-way valve, a minimum flow rate of
> 300 l/h is set under all operating conditions.
■
Instantaneous heating water heater:
The minimum flow rate required for the instantane-
ous heating water heater depends on the required
output stage:
Stage 1: 250 l/h
Stage 2: 425 l/h
Stage 3: 600 l/h
Note
If the flow rate in the secondary circuit is lower than
the specified values, a lower stage may be switched
on.
■
Defrosting:
The defrost process requires a minimum flow rate of
900 l/h.
Note
The heating/cooling circuits are not supplied with
heat during defrosting.
■
DHW heating:
Minimum flow rate depends on the DHW cylinder.
