3 - Installation 3-1 Locating the Unit It is important to install the hot water heat pump in accordance with the following instructions. Water and electrical connections must be carried out by a suitably qualified tradesman or installer • • • • • • • The appliance must be installed outside. The appliance must be mounted on its anti-vibratory studs, positioned on a substantial platform (concrete or steel pad).
3-2 Water connections Please refer to the diagram below: 1) Connect the hot water in pipe (hot water supply pipe) to the outlet port on the hot water cylinder. Pay attention to heat preservation and ensure appropriate thermal insulation of the pipe work. It is important that the unused hot water outlet port be properly capped. The plastic transport caps are not suitable for this function.
3-3 Electrical Connections CAUTION: before connecting the appliance, make sure that the supply power line is disconnected from the network. General Power Supply Characteristics • Neutral mode TT and TN.S; the circuit of the heat pump must be connected to the earth circuit Connections • • • The electric installation must be carried out by a qualified professional or electrician The power supply of the heat pump must come from an independent circuit and have the appropriate circuit protection.
3-4 How the reversible heat pump operates By using the free energy contained in the ambient air, the heat pump enables the heating of the water in a very economical way. Your heat pump is a heat machine that can transfer the heat from a low temperature area (ambient air) to a higher temperature area. How the pump operates in heating mode: The heat of the air is absorbed by the cold, liquid refrigerant, through the evaporator (radiator with wings), the refrigerant is vaporised.

4 - Use in Standard Mode Starting operation Press the power button when the unit has received the signal it gives out two 'beep' tones. The operation light switches on and the heat pump water heater starts operation. The compressor will restart after 3 minutes to protect the system if the interval is shorter than 3 minutes from the last shut down to the present switch on.
2) When it reaches the switch-off time, the heat pump water heater will automatically shut down. 3) Press the timer-on button again, and the set up is cancelled. button is pressed while the unit is under the timer-off 4) If the on/off setting, the unit will shut down immediately. The timer setting is cancelled. 5) Timer-On and Timer-Off cannot be set at the same time. Coercive Defrosting 1) Press the button, the heater will go into the defrost mode.
5 - Instructions for the Installer The installer must read the following and provide instructions to the purchaser. 5-1 Unit controller and parameters The Heat Pump is Equipped with 2 Control Devices: • • • A defrost temperature probe, located on the evaporator, starts the defrost sequence. A thermal probe located on the exchanger ensures the cut of the heat pump when the temperature of the water reaches the temperature required.
minutes. 2) Parameters for Exiting Defrost Mode: • When defrosting time reach 3 minutes and T4 reaches 10°C or defrosting time reaches 8 minutes, defrost exits and starts heating water mode. While defrost is exiting, after compressor and fan motor have stopped for 1 minute, the four way valve1 is turned off. • The Compressor will restart after it stops for 3 minutes, and the system will run the same mode as before defrosting.
