Safety notes

3.1 Safety Notes– general
The following instructions refer to the standard design of substation. Special versions of substations are available on request.
This operating manual should be read carefully before installation and start- up of the substation. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage or faults that result from non-compliance with the operating manual. Please read and follow all the instructions
carefully to prevent accidents, injury and damage to property. Assembly, start-up and maintenance work must be performed by qualified and authorized personnel only.
Please comply with the instructions issued by the system manufacturer or system operator.
Corrosion protection
All pipes and components are made of stainless steel and brass.
The maximum chloride compounds of the flow medium should not be higher than 150 mg/l.
The risk of equipment corrosion increases considerably if the recommended level of permissible chloride compounds is exceeded.
Energy source
The substation is designed for district heating as the primary source of energy. However, also other energy sources can be used where the operating conditions allow it and always are comparable to district heating.
Application
The substation is designed to be connected to the house installation in a frost-free room, where the temperature does not exceed 50 °C and the humidity does not exceed 60%. Do not cover or wall up the substation or in any other way block the entrance to the station.
Choice of material
Choice of materials always in compliance with local legislation.
Safety valve(s)
We recommend mounting of safety valve(s), however, always in compliance with local regulations.
Connection
The substation must be equipped with features that ensure that the substation can be separated from all energy sources (also power supply).
Emergency
In case of danger or accidents – fire, leaks or other dangerous circumstances – interrupt all energy sources to the station if possible, and seek expert help.
In case of discoloured or bad-smelling domestic hot water, close all shut-off valves on the substation, inform the operating personnel and call for expert help immediately.

4.1.1 Installation
Mounting:
Adequate space
Please allow adequate space around the substation for mounting and maintenance purposes.
Orientation
The station must be mounted so that components, keyholes and labels are placed correctly. If you wish to mount the station differently please contact your supplier. Drillings
Where substations are to be wall-mounted, drillings are provided in the back mounting plate. Floor mounted units have support.
Labelling
Each connection on the substation is labelled.
Before installation:
Clean and rinse
Prior to installation, all substation pipes and connections should be cleaned and rinsed.
Tightening
Due to vibration during transport, all substation connections must be checked and tightened before installation.
Unused connections
Unused connections and shut-off valves must be sealed with a plug. Should the plugs require removal, this must only be done by an authorized service technician.
Installation:
Strainer
If a strainer is supplied with the station it must be fitted according to schematic diagram. Please note that the strainer may be supplied loose.
Connections
Internal installation and district heating pipes connections must be made using threaded, flanged or welded connections.

5.2.1 Technical parameters
Technical parameters

Controls

6.1 DHW temperature control
DHW temperature control
There are various types of DHW temperature control used in Danfoss substations.
DHW temperature should be adjusted to 45-50 °C, as this provides optimal utilisation of DH water. At DHW temperatures above 55 °C, the possibility of lime scale deposits increases significantly.
6.1.1 IHPT 90 controller (45–65 °)
IHPT is a self-acting flow-compensated temperature controller with integrated differential pressure controller.
The IHPT operates at its best at DH supply temperatures of up to 100 °C.
By turning the handle for temperature setting in (+) direction the setting is increased, by turning it in (-) direction the setting is decreased.

*Start position: Handle turned fully in (+) direction.
The values are intended as a guide.
6.1.2 Safety valve
The purpose of the safety valve is to protect the substation from excessive pressure.
The blow-off pipe from the safety valve must not be closed. The blow-off pipe outlet should be placed so that it discharges freely and it is possible to observe any dripping from the safety valve.
It is recommended to check the operation of safety valves at intervals of 6 months. This is done by turning the valve head in direction indicated.
6.1.3 Strainer
Strainers should be cleaned regularly by authorized personnel. The frequency of cleaning would depend on operating conditions and the manufacturer’s instructions. 6.1.4 GTU Pressure Equalizer
The GTU Pressure Equalizer absorbs the expansion on the secondary side of the Termix water heaters and can be used as a substitute to the safety valve.
Furthermore the pressure equalizer absorbs a possible increase in pressure, so a discharge outlet is omitted.
The GTU Pressure Equalizer may not be applied in systems with hot water circulation. 6.1.5 Circulation pipe
The circulation pipe set is mounted directly on the controller.
The set includes circulation pipe, single check valve and fitting. When mounting the hot water circulation directly on the controller the hot water circulation temperature will be equal to the idle temperature. The idle temperature is a few degrees lower than the
set domestic hot water temperature. 6.2 Maintenance
The substation requires little monitoring, apart from routine checks. It is recommended to read the energy meter at regular intervals, and to write down the meter readings.
Regular inspections of the substation according to this Instruction are recommended, which should include:
Strainers
Cleaning of strainers.
Meters
Checking of all operating parameters such as meter readings.
Temperatures
Checking of all temperatures, such as DH supply temperature and DHW temperature.
Connections
Checking all connections for leakages.
Safety valves
The operation of the safety valves should be checked by turning the valve head in the indicated direction.
Venting
Checking that the system is thoroughly vented.
Inspections should be carried out minimum every two years.
Spare parts can be ordered from Danfoss. Please ensure that any enquiry includes the substation serial number.
Authorized personnel only
Assembly, start-up and maintenance work must be performed by qualified and authorized personnel only.

Troubleshooting

7.1 Troubleshooting in general
In the event of operating disturbances, the following basic features should be checked before carrying out actual troubleshooting:

• the substation is connected to electricity,
• the strainer on the DH supply pipe is clean,
• the supply temperature of the DH is at the normal level (summer, at least 60 °C – winter, at least 70 °C),
• the differential pressure is equal to or higher than the normal (local) differential pressure in the DH network – if in doubt, ask the DH plant supervisor,
• pressure on the system – check the HE pressure gauge.

Authorized personnel only
Assembly, start-up and maintenance work must be performed by qualified and authorized personnel only.
