3. Appliance description

3.1 Minimum software versions

3.2 Properties

This appliance is an air source heat pump designed for outdoor installation. It extracts heat from outdoor air and transfers it to heating water, capable of reaching flow temperatures up to 75 °C. It is equipped with an electric emergency/booster heater (NHZ) for safeguarding heating operation and DHW temperatures. The appliance is suitable for underfloor and radiator heating systems, continues to extract heat down to -25 °C outside temperature, and features a corrosion-protected, stove-enamelled casing. It comprises all necessary components and safety equipment, including a safety valve to prevent refrigerant entering the heating circuit in case of a leak. A WPM heat pump manager is required for centralised control.

3.3 Function

3.3.1 Heating

Heat is extracted from outdoor air via the evaporator. A compressor raises the refrigerant's temperature. A condenser transfers this heat to the heating circuit. The refrigerant then expands, restarting the cycle. At air temperatures below approx. 7 °C, hoarfrost forms on the evaporator fins and is automatically defrosted. Water from defrosting collects in the defrost pan and drains off.

! Material losses: During the defrost cycle, the fan is switched OFF and the heat pump circuit is reversed. Heat for defrosting is drawn from the buffer cylinder. For operation without a buffer cylinder, observe chapter "Menu / Menu description / SETTINGS / HEATING / STANDARD SETTING / BUFFER OPERATION" in the WPM installation instructions. Otherwise, the heating water may freeze under unfavourable conditions. The heat pump automatically reverts to heating mode at the end of the defrost cycle.

! Material losses: In dual mode operation, return water from the second heat generator may flow through the heat pump. Please note that the return temperature must be no higher than 65 °C.

3.3.2 Cooling

! Material losses: The heat pump is not suitable for continuous, year-round cooling. Observe the application limits (see chapter "Specification / Data table").

! Material losses: In cooling mode, condensate can form when the dew point temperature is undershot. Take suitable measures to prevent the formation of condensate.

Rooms are cooled by reversing the heat pump circuit, extracting heat from the heating water and transferring it to the outdoor air. Area cooling and fan cooling require a remote control unit (FET) for dew point monitoring. Fan cooling also requires a buffer cylinder. The heat pump switches OFF if the outside temperature falls below the selected lower application limit for cooling.

4. Settings

The system is operated exclusively via the WPM heat pump manager. Please observe the instructions for the heat pump manager.

5. Maintenance and care

! Material losses: Only qualified contractors may perform maintenance work, such as electrical safety checks.

A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning all plastic and sheet metal parts. Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. Regularly check the condensate drain (visual inspection). Remove any contaminants and blockages immediately.

Diagram description: A diagram shows an inspection port on the appliance.

! Material losses: Keep the air discharge and intake apertures free from snow and leaves.

Remove any leaves or other foreign bodies from the evaporator fins periodically. We recommend regular inspection and maintenance by a qualified contractor.

Troubleshooting (Maintenance and Care)

FaultCauseRemedy
Water drips from the safety valve.Loss of water pressure in the heating system.Use the inspection port to check if water is passing from the safety valve hose into the condensate pan. Call your qualified contractor.
Condensate is collecting on the outside of the appliance.The heat pump extracts heat from the outdoor air, causing humidity to condense as dew or frost on the cooled casing. This is not a defect.-
The fan runs when the compressor is switched OFF.At outside temperatures below 10 °C, the fan regularly starts at the lowest speed when the compressor is idle to prevent evaporator/fan freezing. At temperatures above freezing, the time between defrost cycles increases for improved efficiency.-
The appliance produces rhythmic scraping or grinding noises.Ice has formed on the air grille, fan blades, or in the air routing.Call your qualified contractor (see chapter "Installation / Troubleshooting / Fan noise").

Even when condensate drains correctly, it is not unusual for water to drip from the appliance onto the floor.

If you cannot remedy the fault, contact your qualified contractor. Provide the number from the type plate.

Diagram description: A sample type plate is shown.

6. Troubleshooting (Operation)

FaultCauseRemedy
There is no hot water or the heating system remains cold.No power at the appliance.Check the fuses / MCBs in your fuse box / distribution board. Notify your qualified contractor if fuses/MCBs trip again after switching the system back on.
Water is leaking from the appliance.The condensate drain may be blocked.Clean the condensate drain as described in "Maintenance and care".
The heater gets warm, but the rooms are not heated to the required temperature.The dual mode temperature is set too low.Increase the dual mode temperature to e.g. 0 °C.
The building is a new build and is in the screed drying phase.Increase the dual mode temperature to +5 °C. After 1 to 2 years, the dual mode temperature can be reset to e.g. -3 °C.

9.7 WPM heat pump manager

A WPM heat pump manager is required to operate the appliance. This controls the entire heating system. Observe the WPM installation instructions during installation.

9.8 Buffer cylinders

! Material losses: A buffer cylinder with diffusion-proof insulation is essential to enable cooling by means of fan convectors.

If cooling is provided via an area heating system, the buffer cylinder is not required.

We recommend the use of a buffer cylinder to ensure trouble-free appliance operation. The buffer cylinder provides hydraulic separation of the volume flows in the heat pump circuit and heating circuit, and also serves as an energy source for defrosting. When operating without a buffer cylinder, observe the details specified in the chapter "Commissioning / Checking the flow rate".

9.9 Preparing the electrical installation

WARNING Electrocution: Carry out all electrical connection and installation work in accordance with national and regional regulations.

WARNING Electrocution: The connection to the power supply must be in the form of a permanent connection. Ensure the appliance can be separated from the power supply by an isolator that disconnects all poles with at least 3 mm contact separation. This requirement can be met by contactors, isolators, fuses, etc.

! Material losses: The specified voltage must match the mains power supply. Observe the type plate.

! Material losses: Provide separate fuses/MCBs for the three power circuits, i.e. those of the appliance, the control unit and the electric emergency/booster heater.

The appliance includes an inverter for the variable speed compressor. In the event of an error, inverters can cause DC residual currents. If RCDs are provided, they must be type B AC/DC-sensitive. A DC residual current can block type A RCDs.

f Ensure that the appliance power supply is disconnected from the distribution board.

The electrical data can be found in the chapter "Specification". You require a screened J-Y (St) 2x2x0.8 mm² cable as a bus cable.

f Use cables with the relevant cross-sections. Observe the applicable national and regional regulations.

Fuse protectionAssignmentCable cross-section

f Use the recessed grips provided at the sides.

Diagram description: A diagram shows the appliance with indicated centre of gravity and recessed grips.

f If the appliance needs to be tilted during transport, this must only be for a short time and it must only be tilted on one of its longitudinal sides. When transporting the appliance, ensure the compressor is on the upper appliance side.

f The longer the appliance is tilted, the greater the distribution of refrigerant oil inside the system.

f Wait approximately 30 minutes before starting the appliance after it has been tilted.

10.2 Heating water connection

! Material losses: The heating system to which the heat pump is connected must be installed by a qualified contractor in accordance with the water installation drawings that are part of the technical guide.

To facilitate connection to the heating system, push-fit connectors are enclosed with the appliance (see chapter "Fitting the push-fit connectors").

f Before connecting the heat pump, flush the pipework thoroughly with suitable water. Foreign bodies, such as welding pearls, rust, sand or sealant can impair the operational reliability of the heat pump.

f Connect the heat pump on the heating side. Check for tightness.

f Ensure that the heating flow and return are connected correctly.

f Provide thermal insulation in accordance with applicable regulations.

f When sizing the heating circuit, observe the internal pressure differential (see chapter "Specification / Data table").

10.3 Flow and return connection

! Material losses: In cooling mode, condensate can form when the dew point temperature is undershot. Take suitable measures to prevent the formation of condensate.

Diagram description: A diagram shows the flow and return connections, labeled 1 (Heating flow), 2 (Heating return), 3 (Drain), and 4 (Ventilation).

f Connect the heat pump to the heating circuit. Check for tightness.

10.4 Fitting the push-fit connectors

The plastic push-fit connectors are not suitable for installation in the DHW line or the solar circuit. Install the push-fit connectors only in the heating circuit.

! Material losses: Tighten the screw cap of the push-fit connector by hand. Never use a tool.

! Material losses: To ensure the push-fit connector is held securely, pipes with a surface hardness > 225 HV (e.g. stainless steel) must have a groove. Using a pipe cutter, cut a groove (depth approx. 0.1 mm) at a defined distance from the end of the pipe.

PipeDepth of insertion
28 mmmax. 44 mm

! Material losses: Pipe ends must be deburred.

f Always use a pipe cutter to trim pipes.

f Push the pipe past the O-ring into the push-fit connector until it reaches the prescribed insertion depth.

f Tighten the screw cap by hand against the main body as far as it will go. This secures the push-fit connection.

Undoing the push-fit connection

f Turn the screw cap anti-clockwise until there is a narrow gap of approx. 2 mm. Press the retainer back with your fingers and hold on to it.

f Pull out the inserted pipe.

Diagram description: Diagrams illustrate how push-fit connectors work, showing the retainer, screw cap, gap, and main body. Another diagram shows the process of making and undoing a push-fit connection.

10.5 Oxygen diffusion

! Material losses: Do not use open vented heating systems. Use oxygen diffusion-proof pipes in underfloor heating systems with plastic pipework. In underfloor heating systems with plastic pipes that are permeable to oxygen and in open vented heating systems, oxygen diffusion may lead to corrosion on the steel components of the heating system (e.g. on the indirect coil of the DHW cylinder, on buffer cylinders, steel radiators or steel pipes).

f With heating systems that are permeable to oxygen, separate the heating system between the heating circuit and the buffer cylinder.

! Material losses: The products of corrosion (e.g. rusty sludge) can settle in the heating system components, which may result in a lower output or fault shutdowns due to reduced cross-sections.

10.6 Filling the heating system

Carry out a fill water analysis before filling the system. This analysis may, for example, be requested from the relevant water supply utility.

! Material losses: To avoid damage as a result of scaling, it may be necessary to soften or desalinate the fill water. The fill water limits specified in chapter "Specification / Data table" must always be observed. Recheck these limits 8-12 weeks after commissioning, every time the system is topped up and during the annual service.

With a conductivity >1000 µS/cm, desalination treatment is recommended in order to prevent corrosion.

Suitable appliances for water softening and desalinating, as well as for filling and flushing heating systems, can be obtained from trade suppliers.

Do not add inhibitors or additives to the filling water.

Diagram description: A diagram shows a safety valve.

10.6.1 Safety concept

WARNING Injury: A safety valve is built into the appliance. Only a safety valve with the same opening pressure can guarantee the correct functioning of the safety concept.

f Do not replace the safety valve with another valve that has a different opening pressure.

f Always use original spare parts.

Note: The safety valve opens if the opening pressure is exceeded. The escaping medium passes into the condensate pan via a built-in hose.

Opening pressure [bar]Tolerance [bar]
2.5+0.15 / -0.35

Only safety valves with an opening pressure of 3 bar may be installed in the heating system.

10.6.2 Filling the heating system

Diagram description: A diagram shows how to close the terminal area, securing the cover with a screw and serrated washer.

XD02 connection: Electric emergency/booster heater (NHZ)

f Connect the electric emergency/booster heater. If the heating water temperature falls below 15 °C while defrosting, the emergency/booster heater is switched on. If on special systems you can ensure that no defrosting will occur, you need not connect the emergency/booster heater.

Additional functions of the emergency/booster heater:

Appliance functionEffect of the electric emergency/booster heater
Mono energetic operationIf the dual mode point is undershot, the electric emergency/booster heater safeguards both the heating operation and the provision of high DHW temperatures.
Emergency modeIf the heat pump shuts down due to a fault, the heating output is covered by the electric emergency/booster heater.
Heat-up program (only for underfloor heating systems)Where return temperatures are <25 °C, the electric emergency/booster heater must provide the necessary heat for screed drying. With such low system temperatures, the heat for screed drying must not be provided by the heat pump, otherwise the frost protection of the appliance can no longer be guaranteed during the defrost cycle. When the heat-up program has ended, the electric emergency/booster heater can be disconnected if it is not required for appliance operation. Please note that during the heat-up program, emergency mode is not available.
Pasteurisation modeThe electric emergency/booster heater starts automatically when pasteurisation mode is active. The DHW is then regularly heated to 60 °C to protect it against the growth of legionella bacteria.

11.2 Ribbon heater

A ribbon heater (see chapter "Installation / Appliance description / Accessories / Additional accessories") can be connected to the condensate pan and hose.

f Install a ribbon heater when mounting on the wall bracket or T-support. When installing on foundations or the mounting bracket, we recommend installing a ribbon heater if the routing of the condensate hose means it is at risk of frost or is fully exposed to the elements.

f Guide the ribbon heater into the condensate drain pipe.

f Open the terminal area (see chapter "Electrical connection / Terminal area / Access to the terminal area").

f Route the electric cable from the ribbon heater to the terminal area from below.

f Make the electrical connection for the ribbon heater.

f Close the terminal area.

12. Commissioning

A WPM heat pump manager is required to operate the appliance. All necessary adjustments prior to and during operation are made on this device. Only a qualified contractor should carry out the settings in the heat pump manager commissioning instructions, commission the appliance and instruct the operator in its use. Carry out commissioning in accordance with these operating and installation instructions, and the instructions for the heat pump manager. Our customer support can assist with commissioning, which is a chargeable service. Observe the accompanying commissioning checklist.

Where this appliance is intended for commercial use, the rules of the relevant Operational Safety Ordinance must be observed at commissioning. For further details, check with your local authorising body (e.g. TÜV).

12.1 Checks before commissioning

12.1.1 Heating system

12.1.2 Temperature sensors

12.1.3 High limit safety cut-out

! At ambient temperatures below -15 °C it is possible that the high limit safety cut-out of the electric emergency/booster heater may trip.

f Check whether the high limit safety cut-out has tripped.

Diagram description: A diagram shows the electric emergency/booster heater with a reset button.

f Reset the high limit safety cut-out by pressing the reset button.

12.1.4 Power supply

12.2 Using the appliance with an external second heat generator

The appliance is factory set for compressor operation with an electric emergency/booster heater. If the appliance is operated in dual mode with an external second heat generator, set the DIP switch to compressor mode with an external second heat generator (see chapter "Troubleshooting / Checking the IWS DIP switch settings").

12.3 Checking the flow rate

The minimum flow rate and the defrost energy must always be assured (see chapter "Specification / Data table"). When heating circuit temperatures are very low, in exceptional circumstances it is possible that the electric emergency/booster heater will be activated during a defrost operation in order to provide the required defrost energy.

The appliance is designed in such a way that no buffer cylinder is required in conjunction with appropriately sized area heating systems. Installations with several heating circuits require a buffer cylinder to be used. The setting is made in heat pump mode. In order to do this, firstly make the following settings:

f Temporarily remove the fuse from the electric emergency/booster heater to isolate the emergency/booster heater from the power supply. Alternatively, switch OFF the second heat generator.

f Ensure that hydronic balancing has been performed.

f Check the connected pumps against the hydraulic diagram.

12.3.1 Function test without buffer cylinder

If the appliance is operated solely through the WPM heat pump manager, and an external pump that is not controlled by the WPM is used as a heating circuit pump, you will have to adjust the heating circuit pump manually.

For systems without a buffer cylinder, one or more heating circuits in the system must remain open. The open heating circuit(s) must be installed in the lead room (room in which the external programming unit is installed, e.g. living room or bathroom). The lead room can be individually controlled using the external programming unit, or indirectly by adjusting the heating curve or activating room influence.

f Operate the appliance in heating mode.

f When designing underfloor heating in the lead room, observe our recommendations. The table applies if individual room control is installed.

12.3.3 Systems without a buffer cylinder

In systems without a buffer cylinder, the minimum flow rate of the heat pump must be ensured via permanently open heating circuits for the underfloor heating system. The design of the underfloor heating system determines the possible flow rate through the permanently open heating circuits. If the flow rate of the permanently open heating circuits is less than the minimum flow rate of the heat pump, check whether the available external delivery head of the heating circulation pump is sufficient.

Delivery head test

pUP* = (Vmin / VHKo)² * (pHK + pV) + pWP

For heat pumps with an integral circulation pump, the pressure drop of the heat pump (pWP) is not taken into account.

If the external delivery head is not sufficient for the minimum flow rate, additional heating circuits for the underfloor heating must be permanently opened.

f Fully open thermostatic or zone valves in a lead room (e.g. living room and bathroom). We do not recommend installing thermostatic or zone valves in the lead room. Control the temperature for these rooms via a remote control.

f At different outside temperatures (e.g. -10 °C and +10 °C), adjust the heating curve so that the required temperature is set in the lead room. Standard values to begin with:

ParameterUnderfloor heatingRadiator heating system
Heating curve0.40.8
Controller dynamics2550
Comfort temperature21 °C23 °C

If the room temperature is too low in spring and autumn (approx. 10 °C outside temperature), go to heat pump manager menu SETTINGS / HEATING / HEATING CIRCUIT and raise the parameter COMFORT TEMPERATURE.

If no remote control is installed, raising the "COMFORT TEMPERATURE" parameter will lead to a parallel offset of the heating curve.

If the room temperature is too low at low outside temperatures, increase parameter "HEATING CURVE".

If the "HEATING CURVE" parameter has been raised and outside temperatures relatively high, adjust the zone valve or thermostatic valve in the lead room to the required temperature.

! Material losses: Never reduce the temperature in the entire building by closing all zone or thermostatic valves; instead use the setback programs.

When everything has been implemented correctly, the system can be heated to its maximum operating temperature and vented once again.

! Material losses: For underfloor heating systems, observe the maximum permissible system temperature for that particular underfloor heating.

13.2 Heating curve adjustment

The efficiency of a heat pump decreases as the flow temperature rises. Adjust the heating curve carefully. Heating curves that are set too high cause the zone valves or thermostatic valves to close, which may result in the minimum required flow rate in the heating circuit being undershot. Observe the WPM commissioning instructions.

The following steps will help you to adjust the heating curve correctly:

13.3 Reduced night mode (Silent mode)

f Look up the sound power level in the data table (see chapter "Specification / Data table").

To reduce the sound power level of the appliance for a specified period, you can set the appliance to night mode if required. You can specify the times during which the appliance is set to night mode using the time programs.

ParameterMeaning
PROGRAMS (SILENT PROGRAM 1)reduced night mode

13.4 Other settings

f For operation with or without a buffer cylinder, observe the information in the WPM instructions and the BUFFER OPERATION parameter in the SETTINGS / HEATING / STANDARD SETTING menu.

Using the heat-up program: If you use the heat-up program, make the following settings on the WPM:

f Initially set the "DUAL MODE TEMP HZG" parameter to 30 °C.

f Then set the "LOWER APP LIMIT HZG" parameter to 30 °C.

After completing the heat-up process, reset the "DUAL MODE TEMP HZG" and "LOWER APP LIMIT HZG" parameters to their respective standard values or to the respective system values.

14. Appliance handover

Explain the appliance function to users and familiarise them with how it works.

Hand over these operating and installation instructions to users for safekeeping. All information in these instructions must be closely observed. The instructions provide information on safety, operation, installation and maintenance of the appliance.

15. Appliance shutdown

! Material losses: Never interrupt the heat pump power supply, even outside of the heating season. Otherwise, system frost protection is not guaranteed. The heat pump manager automatically switches the heat pump to summer or winter mode.

15.1 Standby mode

To shut the system down, simply set the heat pump manager to "Standby mode". This way, the safety functions that protect the system remain enabled, e.g. frost protection.

15.2 Power interruption

If the system is to be isolated from the power supply permanently, please observe the following:

! Material losses: If the heat pump is completely switched OFF and there is a risk of frost, drain the system on the water side.

16. Maintenance

WARNING Electrocution: Prior to commencing any service or cleaning work, isolate the appliance across all poles from the power supply. Following disconnection from the power supply, parts of the appliance may remain energised for 2 minutes until the inverter capacitors have discharged.

We recommend a regular inspection (to establish the current condition of the system), and maintenance if required (to return the system to its original condition).

Diagram description: A diagram shows an inspection port on the appliance.

f Open the inspection port.

f Check the condensate drain (visual inspection). Remove any contaminants and blockages immediately.

! Material losses: Keep the air discharge and intake apertures free from snow and ice.

Remove any leaves or other foreign bodies from the evaporator fins periodically.

17. Troubleshooting

WARNING Electrocution: Before working on the appliance, isolate it from the power supply at the control panel. Following disconnection from the power supply, parts of the appliance may remain energised for 2 minutes until the inverter capacitors have discharged.

Please observe the instructions for the heat pump manager.

If the fault cannot be located during a service using the heat pump manager, open the control panel as an emergency measure and check the settings of the IWS (integrated heat pump control unit).

Diagram description: A diagram shows the IWS with components: 1 (Reset button), 2 (DIP switch WP-Typ), 3 (DIP switch BA), 4 (LEDs).

17.1 Checking the IWS DIP switch settings

Carry out the following steps to make the IWS accessible.

f Remove the cover.

DIP switch (WP-Typ)

17.3 Reset button

If the IWS was not initialised successfully, you can reset the settings with this button. For this, also observe chapter "Reinitialising the IWS" in the heat pump manager instructions.

17.4 Resetting the high limit safety cut-out

The electric emergency/booster heater stops if the heating water temperature exceeds 85 °C, for example if the flow rate is too low.

Diagram description: A diagram shows the electric emergency/booster heater with a reset button.

f Remove the cause of the fault.

f Reset the high limit safety cut-out by pressing the reset button.

f Check whether the heating water is being circulated at a sufficiently high flow rate.

17.5 Fan noise

The heat pump draws heat from the outdoor air. This causes the outdoor air to cool down. At outside temperatures of 0 °C to 8 °C, the air may be cooled to below freezing point. If, under these conditions, precipitation occurs in the form of rain or fog, ice may form on the air grille, the fan blades or the air routing pipes. If the fan comes into contact with this ice, this creates noise.

How to remedy rhythmic scratching or grinding noises:
