1 FEATURES AND TECHNICAL DATA
The Gitié AHAY group consists of a GAHP A heat pump and a
AY00-120 condensing boiler.
1.1 FEATURES
1.1.1 GAHP-A unit features
Operation
Based on the thermodynamic water-ammonia absorption cycle
(H
2
0–NH
3
), the appliance produces hot water using outdoor air
as a renewable energy source (cold source) and natural gas (or
LPG) as primary energy.
The thermodynamic cycle takes place within a hermetically
sealed circuit, in welded construction, perfectly tight, facto-
ry-tested, which does not require any maintenance or coolant
top-ups.
Mechanical and thermo-hydraulic components
▶
Steel sealed circuit, externally treated with epoxy paint.
▶
Sealed combustion chamber (type C) suitable for outdoor
installations.
▶
Metal mesh radiant burner, equipped with ignition elec-
trodes and ame detection, managed by an electronic ame
control box.
▶
Titanium stainless steel shell-and-tube water heat exchang-
er, externally insulated.
▶
Stainless steel, shell-and-tube recovery exchanger of ue gas
latent heat.
▶
Air exchanger with nned coil, with steel pipe and alumin-
ium ns.
▶

1.1.2 AY00-120 Unit features
Operation
The AY00-120 unit is a high eciency condensing boiler suitable
for supply hot water up to 80 °C. The appliance is provided with
an internal heat exchanger to separate internal hydraulic circuit
from system hydraulic circuit.
Mechanical and thermo-hydraulic components
▶
Premixed multigas burner with low NOx and CO emissions.
▶
Stainless steel plate heat exchanger, which also acts as a hy-
draulic separator.
▶
Automatic and manual air vent devices on the appliance in-
ternal circuit.
▶
Flue gas exhaust duct with relevant terminal, for type B53P
conguration.
▶
Condensate discharge siphon (with antifreeze protection).
Control and safety devices
▶
Electronic board with microprocessor.
▶
Automatically resettable water temperature limit thermo-
stat.
▶
Flue gas limit thermostat, for single use (thermal switch).
▶
System circuit water dierential pressure switch (PD1).
▶
Appliance internal circuit water dierential pressure switch
(PD2) with anti-welding function.
▶
Overpressure valve for the appliance internal circuit, set to
trip at 3 bar.
▶
Appliance internal circuit expansion tank.
▶
Ionization ame control box.
▶
Double shutter electric gas valve.
▶
Antifreeze functions for hydraulic circuit.
▶
Antifreezing thermostat for the heating element on the con-
densate siphon.
