Water heating element installation manual
2 Plumbing
All plumbing must be carried out by an authorised plumber.
Place the unit near a gully to prevent damage in case of a
water leakage.
2.1 Shunt valves
Article no. Type
110939 2-way valve DN15 Kvs. 0,25
110940 2-way valve DN15 Kvs. 0,4
110941 3-way valve DN15 Kvs. 0,25
110942 3-way valve DN15 Kvs. 0,4
56596 Shunt valve motor
WARNING! Before commencing installation,
pull out the mains plug and wait 2 mins before
opening the door.
Fig. 5
When installing vertically, the connection pipes must face upwards.
Fig. 4:
When installing horizontally, incoming water shall be connected to the lower
pipe. Do not place the element so that both pipes appear at the bottom, or
at the top.
2.2 Location of the water heating element
NB! Please consider service accessibility before
commencing installation.
See Fig.4 and Fig. 5 for more information on element
direction.
The element must be placed with a good distance to
potential duct bends, to avoid uneven air flow above the
element.
!

2.4 Venting
Remember to connect the T piece for venting, at the highest
point in the circuit.
2.5 Frost risk
A spring loaded shutting damper must be connected to
the outdoor air duct. This prevents cold air current on the
element upon system outage, which in turn might lead to
frost damages.
If antifreeze solution is not used, the element
must be placed in a heated room to avoid frost
damage.
Place the ventilation unit close to a gully, to prevent damage
in the case of water leakage.
WARNING! Make sure that everything works
correctly before using the system.

Pump
Place the regulation valve as close as possible to the
ventilation unit. Note that many valve motors can operate in
both directions, and that this can be controlled on the motor
itself. Adjust it so that the valve opens on a rising 0-10V
signal.
Upon connecting to the pipe system, the follwoing points
must be considered:
1. The connection pipes must not be subjected to torsion
or bending.
2. Ensure that neither expansion forces in the system nor
the weight of the system itself strain the connections.
3. Check the system for potential leakage after filling it with
water.
2.3 Connections
Employ the recommended connections (se Fig. 6) unless
otherwise stated.

3.1 Uni 3-4
For connection info on frost sensor (B5), valve motor
and shutting damper, refer to the wiring diagram under
section 5.

2Place the sensor in the supply air duct (refer to label on
top of the ventilation unit), approximately 1m away from
the the heating element. Unroll the wire on the top of the
ventilation unit, close to the supply air duct. Drill a 7mm
hole in the duct, for the sensor. Enter the sensor into the
hole, seal the hole and attach the wire to the duct using
tape.
Remove the cover for the electrical room. Connect the new cable to the central unit.
Remove the connector (2) from the cable harness (1).
Install bracket with terminal block.

OBS! Temperature sensor B1 must be placed
after the heating element.

4 Maintenance
The lamellas in the heating element must be cleaned on
a regular basis. First, clean the entry side of the element
with a brush, then the whole element can be cleaned with
compressed air, water or steam.
Blow the filth away from the outgoing end to the incoming
end.
With the use of detergent, first make sure that it does not
react with copper or aluminium.
Take care not to harm the thin lamellas during cleaning.
5 Appendix 1
Attach the sensor with isolation and strips (see Fig. 8).
3.3 DIP switch
Finally, the central unit must be set to work with the water
heating element. Set DIP switch no 1 on the central unit to
position ON (see Fig. 9).
3.2 Frost sensor (B5)
WARNING! To prevent the element from fre-
ezing, a sensor (B5) must be attached to the
water pipe for outgoing water.
