Connection of auxiliary accessories
Three-way valves
Appliances enable control of a 3-way
valve for managing a domestic water
storage tank. The operational
concept is that where there is a
demand for domestic water by a
storage tank, the system manages a 3-
way valve to direct the hot water to the
tank alone and to operate at maximum
capacity to supply water at 60°C
(compatible with operating limits).
To run this, connect the 3-way valve
through PIN 18, N and 10 of the
terminal block (see fig. 17). PIN 18
(Line) and N (Neutral) supply power to
the valve (1ph ~ 230V, 2A max), while
on PIN
10 the control signal is
available (1ph ~ 230V, 2A max).
When using a spring return valve,
connect PIN 10 and N only.
The signal for domestic water demand
must be of a Dry Contact type (quality
of contacts greater than25mA - 12V),
which closes the circuit through PIN 15
and 13 of the terminal block (see fig.
17).
Attention: domestic water demand has
priority over programmed operation
mode, both in heating and cooling
mode.
Frequency limitation
To force the unit to operate at a lower
maximum frequency (to reduce noise
generated), if there is no Comfort User
Interface, introduce a clean contact
type switch (quality of contacts greater
than 25mA - 12V) through PIN 13 and
14 of the terminal block (see fig. 17).
With contact closed, the unit will
operate with a maximum frequency
lower than the norm, and vice-versa
will function in standard mode.
For correct functioning, you must first
configure the unit via parameters 5 and
6 of the NETCON User Interface menu.
Maximum noise reduction is around
3dB at 75% of the maximum
compressor operating frequency.
Stop Unit or Defrosting Signals
On the terminal block there are
signals for indicating particular
operating or stopping conditions of
the external unit.
The signals available are:
• Defrosting: while in Heating mode,
according to the external ambient
conditions, the unit may carry out the
defrosting cycle to clean the external
battery of any ice that has formed.
In these conditions, it is not possible
to guarantee the required
temperature for water output, which
may reduce general comfort.
(PIN: 4-N or 11-N, NETCON Code:
106 or 108)
• Alarm: an alarm condition is shown
resulting in the compressor
stopping.
(PIN: 5-N or 11-N, NETCON Code:
147 or 108)
• Ambient Temperature Reached: if
suitably programmed via the Comfort
User Interface, and functioning with
this interface, a signal indicates that
the pre-set temperature has been
reached. This signal can be used as
the window contact normally
implemented in fan coils.
(PIN: 5-N, NETCON Code: 147)
Some outlets are used for several
conditions. Via the installation menu of
the Comfort User Interface it is possible
to configure these outlets (refer to
33AW-CS1 manual). Refer to tables on
page 26 for correct pin-outs and use of
signals.
External temperature sensor
If the placement of the external unit
could cause a non
-
representative
external temperature reading by the
sensor on the machine, it is possible to
install an additional remote
temperature sensor (NTC 2 cables of
3kΩ - 25°C).
Connect the sensor heads via PIN
23
and 24 of the terminal block (see
diagram on page 10).
Dehumidifier or Humidifier
The unit can send an activation signal
to a second humidifier or dehumidifier
as far as detected by the humidity
sensor within NETCON. Connect the
dehumidifier or humidifier to terminals
N and 11; either a dehumidifier
(Contact NA) or a humidifier (contact
NC) is activated via a relay. Set the
NETCON code 108 (2 per
dehumidifier/humidifier). Configure
the humidity value limit (NETCON code
107) with regard to which of the
humidifier or dehumidifier will be
activated (for example if code 107 =
65, the dehumidifier is activated if the
relative humidity in the atmosphere
exceeds 65% including 5% hysteresis).
Additional water circulator
It is possible to connect a secondary
water circulator via terminals 12 and N.
Its regulation is as follows:
If OAT > temperature is set via
NETCON code 148.
The additional pump is activated
depending on how code 156 has been
set.
1.
Switched on or off according to the
operation of the heat pump’s main
circulator, in the case of activation of
domestic input the pump is on;
2.
Switched on or off according to the
operation of the heat pump’s main
circulator, in the case of activation of
domestic input the pump is off;
If OAT < temperature set via NETCON
code 148.
The additional pump is activated
depending on how code 157 has been
set.
(0. always off, 1. on/off according to
operation of auxiliary heater, 2. always
on).
