2.1 Preparations before installing heat pump


If the coolant pipes are to be routed above ground, make holes in the walls for the
coolant pipes.
The coolant pipes must be insulated all the way along from the heat pump, through the
walls and on the exterior of the house up to the outdoor unit in order to prevent conden-
sation and heat losses when hot brine circulates around the system when defrosting.
If coolant pipes are to be laid underground see the instructions below.
• Open up holes in the wall for the conduits (1) for the chilled water lines. See Fig.
5 on page 12.
• Separate holes should be drilled for the chilled water feed and return lines.
• If there is a risk of groundwater infiltration, special insulated tubes should be
1
used.
• Insert the conduits (1) through the wall openings from the inside making sure
they have a slight downwards slope of at least 1 cm per 30 cm.
To prevent rainwater from entering, cut of f the conduits at an oblique
angle (see Fig. 1 –1). 3
• Ensure that there is sufficient distance between the conduits to allow
for further installation work. 2
• Insert the chilled water lines (2) from the outside through the conduits.
• Fill the gap between conduit and wall with mortar (3). 3
• Check that the chilled water lines (2) are well centred inside the conduits (1), so
that the thermal insulation is evenly distributed on all sides.
1
• Seal the conduits with a suitable sealing agent (foam plastic) (4) .

6 Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor


The outdoor sensor should be placed on the north or north-west side of the house.
In the case of houses up to three storeys high, the sensor should be placed at a height of about 2/3 of the house to get as
exact a reading of outdoor air temperature as possible.
In the case of buildings taller than three storeys, the sensor should be placed between the second and third storey. It should
be mounted in a spot that is neither completely protected from the wind nor exposed to direct draught.
It should be placed at least 1 m from ventilation outlets or similar devices radiating heat.
If the sensor is embedded, the conduit should be air-tight to prevent the sensor from being affected by draught.
Connect the sensor to the control system in accordance with the instructions in section “Electrical Installation” .

8/9/2019 Atria_Optimum_Install_EN.pdf

When you fill the chilled water circuit, the chilled water pump must be running. Therefore, the electrical installation must have been carried out
before filling.
Ethylene glycol or ethanol with anti-corrosion protection additives of 45 percent volume must be used as anti-freeze, which corresponds to
freeze protection to minimum -32°C. This mixture withstands temperatures of a minimum of -50°C before risk of cracking. It is very important
that only ethylene glycol is used, other types of anti-freezes are too viscous at coolant temperatures of -10°C and below. We recommend that
the coolant is mixed and that it can withstand temperatures of at least -32°C and is checked before filling the system.
The volumes of the coolant system are as follows:
Heat pump (exchanger, pipe and outer jacket) approximately 47 litres
Expansion tank approximately 3 litres
External section approximately 7 litres
28 mm pipe (between HP & outdoor unit) approximately 0.5 litres per metre of pipe
Note that it is important for the installation’s function and reliability that the coolant side is completely bled in connection with operation.
Remember to also bleed the outdoor unit several times during operation.
Remove the right side panel from the outdoor unit, there is a bleed nipple at the top on both collection pipes for bleeding the outdoor unit.
– Select operating mode Off (see p. 45).
– Mix the correct proportions of water and anti-freeze liquid in a container (66) (e.g. plastic tub).
ATTENTION! Each filling must be well mixed. Then fill the system with the chilled water mixture from the tub (66) with the help of an external
pump (67) strong enough to vent the chilled water loop. (See diagram on the following page.)
Remove the venting vessel and connect the discharge side of the pump to the charging connection at the shut-off valve (62).
– Close shut-off valve (57).
– Open shut-off valve (62) and (64).
– Open shut-off valve (61) and connect a hose between the valve and the chilled water tub.
– Start the external pump (67) to fill the chilled water loop. Then start the chilled water pump (29) manually from the
display menu ”Manual Test”

Filling the chilled water system (contd.)


Example
Coolant’s total volume with pipe length of 20 m (10 m
pipe between HP & outdoor unit):
Pipe length 20 m: 10 litres
Volume in heat pump: 47 litres
Volume in expansion tank: 3 litres
Volume in outdoor unit: 7 litres
Total: 67 litres

8/9/2019 Atria_Optimum_Install_EN.pdf

Run the chilled water pump and the external pump in series until the liquid coming out of the return hose from
shut-off valve (61) is free of air.
• Stop the chilled water pump (29) from the display menu ”Manual Test” but let the external pump go on running.
To eliminate air between the valves (61) and (62), open valve (57) (external pump still running).
• Close valve (61) and pressurize the system by means of the external pump. ATTENTION: No more than max.
300kPa (3 bar).
• Close valve (62).
• Stop the external pump (67) and disconnect the filling arrangement.
If there is any chilled water mixture left, keep this available in a suitable plastic container to be used for later filling of the system
(to be left with the customer).
• Start the chilled water pump (29) manually and check that the level in the expansion/venting vessel stabilizes.
ATTENTION! If the system has to be refilled, the chilled water pump (29) must run. To refill the system, remove the safety valve (60)

and fill the vessel through the safety valve connection to about 2/3 of the vessel. Then reconnect the safety valve.
• Keep the chilled water pump (29) running until all the air contained in the system has assembled in the expansion/venting
vessel. During this procedure, the water level in the vessel will sink and more chilled water must be added. (See above.)
• Open the safety valve (60) to discharge positive pressure, if any. The water level should not be less than 2/3 of the
vessel. Check that valve (61) is closed.
• Provided the heating system has been filled with water, change operating mode from ” ” to the desired position.

9 Preparations and checks before start-up


The installation may only be put into service after the heating
system, the warm water circuit, if applicable, and the chilled water circuit have
been filled. Otherwise the pumps risk being damaged.
Should you wish to use auxiliary heating exclusively, first make
sure that the heating system has been properly filled. Then
make sure that neither the chilled water pump nor the compressor
can start. Do this by selecting the operating mode ”ADD” on the
control panel.
Please pay attention to the safety instructions!

In addition to this, check the following items before start-up:


• Check all connections for leakage.
• Start the compressor and check its rotation direction. If it rotates in the wrong
direction, this will be indicated on the control panel; the message
PHASE ORDER will be displayed.
If this is the case, two of the mains supply phases must be reversed
(e.g. L1 and L3).
• Adjust the factory setting to the customer’s heat load.

10.4.1 Adjustment of “ROOM” value


By adjusting the ROOM value you can modify the heat curve and, as a consequence, the room temperature. If you modify
the heat curve by changing the ROOM value, this doesn’t affect the gradient of the curve, which is the case if you adjust the
“CURVE” value. Instead, when the ROOM value is changed, the whole curve undergoes a proportional parallell shift: is the
ROOM value changed by 1°C then the heat curve will shift by 3°C. The relation feed line temperature -outside air temperature
will not be affected as the change in feed line temperature will be the same along the whole curve (see diagram).
Adjustment of indoor temperature by changing the ROOM value as described above is only good for temporary changes.
Long term adjustments of the indoor temperature should be effected by adjustment of the heat curve itself, this being the
most cost and energy efficient method (please refer to ”Adjustment of Heat Curve” on the next page.) Factory setting of the
ROOM value is 20°C.

10.4.2 How to change the ROOM value:


1 Press the plus (up) or minus (down) button once
to open the “ROOM” value.
CURVE 40°C

56
2 Increase or reduce the ROOM value to the
desired temperature, using the plus (up) or
40
minus (down) button. Wait for 10 seconds
or press the left-hand button once to return
to the main menu. 24

8/9/2019 10.5 Adjustment of Heat Curve Atria_Optimum_Install_EN.pdf

10.5.1 Adjustment of the “CURVE ” value


You can adjust the heat curve by changing the CURVE value. This value indicates the feed line temperature to the
radiators at 0°C outside air temperature. If the outside air temperature is lower than 0°C, the temperature of the
feed line will be higher than 40°C. Is the outside air temperature higher than 0°C, the feed line temperature will be
lower than 40°C. If you increase the value for CURVE, the heat curve gradient will become steeper; if you reduce the
value the gradient will level out.
This is the best way to make long-term adjustments of the indoor temperature as it is both cost and energy efficient.
If you wish to make a temporary adjustment of the temperature, you should change the ROOM value (see
”Adjustment of the ROOM value” on the preceding page).
Factory setting is 40°C at 0°C outside air temperature. The value is adjustable from 22°C to 56°C.

10.5.2 How to change the CURVE value:


1 Press the left- or right-hand button once to reach the main menu
“INFORMATION”. The cursor will be at the “Operation” menu. CURVE 40°C
2 Press the minus (down) button to move the cursor to ”Heat Curve” menu. 56
3 Open the menu by pressing the right-hand button. The cursor will be at
”CURVE”. 40
4 Open ”CURVE” by pressing the right-hand button.
5 Increase or reduce the value using the plus (up) or minus (down) button. 24
If you watch the graphic representation of the curve, you will see how the 20 0 -20 °C
gradient changes. Press the left-hand button three times to return to the
main menu. Fig 17. Adjustment of CURVE value

8/9/2019 10.6 Maximum Return Line Temperature for the Heating System
Atria_Optimum_Install_EN.pdf

Factory setting of the maximum return line temperature is 48°C. This value must be adapted to each indi-
vidual installation. For a new value to be entered, the heat pump must be in heating mode and operating in
a stable manner.
The value of the maximum return line temperature will be adjusted in the ”Service” menu under
”HEATPUMP”.
• Establish the difference between the is-values of feed line and return lines,
in this case 36 – 30 = 6.
• Deduct this value from 55°C (maximum feed line temperature), i.e. 55 – 6 = 49.
• Enter the new value 49° in the ”Service” menu under ”HEATPUMP”.

10.7 Adjustment of Room Factor


The room factor will only be displayed if a room sensor has been installed. The room factor influences the
heat curve and is adjustable from 0 (= no influcence) to 4 (= maximum influence).
For floor heating, a setting between 1-3 is recommended and for radiator heating between 2-4. Adjustment
is made in the menu ”Heat Curve” under ”ROOMFACTOR”.

13 Refrigerant
8/9/2019 Atria_Optimum_Install_EN.pdf
The compressor (refrigerant) circuit of the heat pump is charged with the refrigerant R404A.
Service and repair work on the refrigerant circuit must be carried out by certified refrigeration personnel only.

Flammability
R404A is neither flammable nor explosive.

Toxicity
Under normal circumstances, and used correctly, the refrigerant has a low level of toxicity. In spite of this, it may cause injury (even danger to
life) under abnormal conditions or if deliberately misused.
Refrigerant gases are many times heavier than air. If there is a leak of refrigerant in a small and badly ventilated room, strong concentrations
of refrigerant gas might form with resulting lack of oxygen and risk of suffocation. Therefore, the heat pump should always be placed in a
room with good ventilation.

In connection with open flame the refrigerant forms phosgene, a pungent gas that is easily recognizable by its smell already in
concentrations well below the allowed limit. In this case, evacuate the premises and air well.

Any person showing symptoms of intoxication must be moved into the fresh air immediately.

Service work on the refrigerant circuit


When repairs are made to the refrigerant circuit, no refrigerant may escape to the open air. All refrigerant must be destroyed. according to
reguoations. Draining and filling of new refrigerant is made through the service valves. For required amount of new refrigerant please refer to
the unit nameplate. If other refrigerant is used than R404A the Thermia Värme warranty will be cancelled unless the new refrigerant was previ-
ously confirmed in writing by Thermia as being an approved replacement for R404A.

Scrapping
Before scrapping the heat pump, the refrigerant must be destroyed according to local and national health and environment regulations.

14 Technical specifications
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/atriaoptimuminstallenpdf ATTENTION: R404A is an environmentally sound, non-chloric refrigerant that
does not affect the ozone layer. Nevertheless all service work involving the
58/62
refrigerant circuit must be carried out by a qualified technician.
