Heat pump water heater – TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR INSTALLERS
e) Close the valves of the pump and shut off (B). Verify that the gauge needle does not move for about 5 minutes.
If the needle moves, there are air leaks in the system, then you must check all the tightening and execution of
flare at this point repeat the procedure from step c
f) Disconnect the vacuum pump
g) Completely open the taps on 2 and 3 way valves (D)
h) Screw in the cap on the service outlet (C) and valves (E)
i) After having tightened the plugs, make sure there are no gas leaks with the appropriate detector
CAUTION: Always protect hoses and cables to prevent their being damaged, as once damaged can cause gas leaks
(personal injury from frostbite).
4.6 Charge of the refrigerant gas (Fig. 9)
The product can be installed with refrigerant connection between internal and external unit up to 8 m. The
warranty does not cover installation with refrigerant connection longer than 8 m. The declared performances
are referred to refrigerant connection pipes of 6 m; different types of installation may lead to different values
of performance.
In case you are adding R134a gas in the circuit, will be needed:
- R134a refrigerant tank. in this case it is necessary a charge attack 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch and corresponding
seal;
- Electronic scale for refrigerant charging with sensitivity 10 g.
During installation
a) Carry out the procedure of paragraph "create a
vacuum and check the seal" until the passage "f";
b) Connect the manometer on the low pressure
service valve (C), and connect the refrigerant
cylinder to the center tap of the the manometer.
Open the container of the refrigerant then open the
main valve cap pressure gauge and adjust the
needle valve until you hear the coolant leak, and
release the pin and close the valve of the the pipe;
c) Keep under control the weight of the refrigerant
tank through the electronic scale;
d) Open the ball valve and to flow the refrigerant
gradually;
e) After reaching the mass of gas to be loaded close
the tap;
f) Remove the manometer and charging hose from
the valve (C);
g) Fully open taps 2 and 3 way valves (D), turn the
product in heat pump mode with the detector and
check for leaks of refrigerant;
h) Remove the container from the manifold and
replace all the plugs (E).
Already installed
Through the installer menu activate the C2
(Charge), you have 30 minutes to perform the
charge with the circuit in low pressure.
a) Connect the manometer on the low pressure
service valve (C), and connect the refrigerant
cylinder to the center tap of the the manometer.
Open the container of the refrigerant then open
the main valve cap pressure gauge and adjust
the needle valve until you hear the coolant leak,
and release the pin and close the valve of the
the pipe;
b) Keep under control the weight of the refrigerant
tank through the electronic scale;
c) Open the ball valve and to flow the refrigerant
gradually;
d) After reaching the mass of gas to be loaded
close the tap;
e) Remove the manometer and charging hose from
the valve (C);
f) with the detector and check for leaks of
refrigerant;
g) Remove the container from the manifold and
replace all the plugs (E).
h) Once finished the time for the "Charge", verify
proper product functioning.
