Installation

5.1 General

The heat pump is suited for outdoor installation. The device
should always be installed on a permanently smooth, even and
horizontal surface and must be aligned vertically. The entire
frame should lie directly on the floor to ensure an adequate
soundproof seal and to prevent the water-bearing components
from becoming too cold. If this is not the case, additional insula-
tion measures may be necessary.
Furthermore, the heat pump should be set up so that the air out-
let direction of the ventilator is perpendicular to the main wind di-
rection to allow unrestricted defrosting of the evaporator.The
heat pump is designed for installation on even ground. If the in-
stallation conditions differ (installation on a platform or flat roof)
or there is a greater risk of the heat pump tipping over (due to an
exposed position or high wind exposure), additional protection
against tipping over must be provided. The responsibility for the
heat pump installation lies with the specialist system construction
company. During the installation, local requirements such as
building regulations, static load of the building, and wind expos-
ure must be accounted for.
It must be possible to carry out maintenance work without hin-
drance. This can be ensured by maintaining a clearance of 1.2 m
to any fixed walls.
ATTENTION!
Do not restrict or block the area around the air intake or outlet.

5.2 Condensed Water Pipe

Condensate that forms during operation must be drained off
frost-free. To ensure proper drainage, the heat pump must be
mounted horizontally. The condensate pipe must have a mini-
mum diameter of 50 mm and must be fed into a sewer in such a
way that it is safe from frost. Do not discharge the condensate di-
rectly into clearing tanks or cesspits, as aggressive vapours or a
condensed water pipe which has not been laid in a frost-free
manner could destroy the evaporator.
ATTENTION!
The frost line can vary according to the climatic region. The regulations
of the countries in question must be observed.

Assembly

6.1 General
The following connections need to be established on the heat
pump:
 Flow and return flow of the heating system
 Condensate outflow
 Control line to the heat pump manager
 Voltage supply
