When transporting the heat pump, ensure that it is not tilted more than
45° (in any direction).
Transport to the final installation location should be carried out
with a pallet. The basic device can be transported with a lift truck,
hand truck or by means of 3/4" pipes fed through the holes in the
base plate or frame.
5 Installation
5.1 General
The device must be installed on a permanently level, smooth and
horizontal surface. The frame around the device must lie tightly
against the floor to guarantee adequate sound insulation, to pre-
vent water-bearing parts from cooling out and to protect the in-
side of the device from small animals. If this is not the case, ad-
ditional insulation measures may be necessary. To prevent small
animals from entering the inside of the device, it may be neces-
sary to seal the connection hole in the base plate, for example.
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 expo-
sure must be accounted for.
It must be possible to carry out maintenance work without hin-
drance. This is ensured if the clearance displayed below is main-
tained.
The specified dimensions are valid for stand-alone installation
only.
