2.4 Flow heater (optional)

Some countries (earthquake-prone areas) require special floor mounting for the flow
heater cabinet. In this case, adhere to ( Special component mounting for the flow heat‐
er cabinet / Page 15) as well.

 Installation 3 17

3.1 General
A schematic display of the cable and hose routings is located under ( Overview of sys‐
tem components / Page 8).

 The water hoses have imprinted directional arrows. While routing the hoses, ensure that
the arrows on the water hoses show the water flow.

 To ensure that they are watertight, wait two hours after the filling procedure to insulate
the connections.

All cooling water connections, hoses, and pipes have to be insulated (e.g. , material from
Armacell, 13 mm thick). Otherwise, excessive condensation will form.

 The insulation material has to be air-tight around parts that transport cooling liquid. In‐
sulation material cut in two has to be glued together again.
The insulation material for the primary cooling circuit is not included in the delivery vol‐
ume.

 The cables routed in the indoor unit, flow heater cabinet (optional) and at the outdoor
unit have to be secured with cable ties.

Excessive cable lengths must not be rolled up and tied together.


The excess cable lengths should meander in the cable ducts. If there are no cable ducts,
roll up the excess length using the largest possible loops.
Refer to ( Fig. 10 Page 18).

water. The insulation material for the primary circuit is not included in the delivery vol‐

 ume.
To ensure that they are watertight, wait two hours after the filling procedure to insulate
the connections.

3.9 Capillary tube device (optional)

The capillary tube device is included in standard delivery volume and can be installed op‐
tionally.
With an installed capillary tube device, the split cooling system will switch off the outdoor
unit when the outdoor temperature is low. As a result, the split cooling system will have a
power saving feature.
In countries without UL requirements, you can install the optional capillary tube device.
In countries with UL requirements, make note of the following:
n All parts of the capillary tube device have a UL approval and UL label.
n The split cooling system as stand-alone device has a UL approval and UL label.
n The capillary tube device in combination with the indoor unit does not have UL ap‐
proval!
n In countries with UL requirements, you must perform a UL approval of the split cool‐
ing system in combination with the capillary tube device yourself!

3.9.1 Upgrade of capillary tube device

All split cooling systems can be upgraded with the capillary tube device.
n Shut down the system
n Switch off the mains power supply
n Refer to the installation instruction in chapter ( Installation / Page 38) and ( Wir‐
ing / Page 39).

In older indoor units, where no capillary tube controller was installed before, the attach‐
 ment holes/holes for the sensor have to be drilled into the ground plate of the control
box.

4.1 Primary circuit (WCS/outside ventilator)

4.1.1 General

The cooling liquid provided and used for the W/A split cooling system is Glykosol N.
In no case should Glykosol N be mixed with another cooling liquid products! This will de‐
C  crease the anti-freeze protection of Glykosol N.
If the provided Glykosol N is not sufficient, order an additional container via Internet or
your local supplier.

The W/A split cooling system without an optional flow heater may be filled with a glycol/
 water mixture of 40:60 only. For this purpose, use the 3 provided containers of cooling
liquid.

With an optional flow heater, the mixture of glycol/water has to be 50:50. The delivery
volume of the flow heater provides a container of pure glycol.

 A total of 4 containers are provided (3 containers of a cooling liquid with a mixture of

glycol/water (40:60) and 1 container of pure glycol). These containers have to be used to
obtain a mixture with an antifreeze agent applicable to -40 Celsius.


The cooling system can be put into operation only after installing the entire CT system.
C
Otherwise, the pump of the split cooling system will be irreversibly damaged.
