REFRIGERANT AND WATER PIPING

4.1 GENERAL NOTES BEFORE PERFORMING PIPING WORK

  • Prepare locally-supplied copper pipes.
  • Select the piping size with the correct thickness and correct material able to withstand sufficient pressure.
  • Select clean copper pipes. Make sure that there is no dust or moisture inside the pipes. Blow the inside of the pipes with oxygen free nitrogen to remove any dust and foreign materials before connecting them.

NOTE
A system with no moisture or oil contamination will give maximum performance and lifecycle compared to that of a poorly prepared system. Take particular care to ensure that all copper piping is clean and dry internally.

  • Cap the end of the pipe when pipe is to be inserted through a wall hole.
  • Do not put pipes on the ground directly without a cap or vinyl tape at the end of the pipe.HITACHI RWM Yutaki S Series Indoor Units - pipe
  • If piping installation is not completed until next day or over a longer period of time, braze off the ends of the piping and charge with oxygen free nitrogen through a Schrader valve type access fitting to prevent moisture and particle contamination.
  • It is advisable to insulate the water pipes, joints and connections in order to avoid heat loss and dew condensation on the surface of the pipes or accidental injures due to excessive heat on piping surfaces.
  • Do not use insulation material that contains NH3, as it can damage copper pipe material and become a source of future leakage.
  • It is recommended to use flexible joints for the water piping inlet and outlet in order to avoid vibration transmission.
  • Refrigerant circuit and Water circuit must be performed and inspected by a licensed technician and must comply with all relevant European and national regulations.
  • Proper water pipe inspection should be performed after piping work to assure there is no water leakage in the space heating circuit.

4.2 R410A REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
4.2.1 Refrigerant charge
The R410A refrigerant is factory charged in the outdoor unit.
NOTE
Refer to the outdoor unit Installation and operation manual to charge the R410A refrigerant.

4.2.2 Precautions in the event of gas refrigerant leaks
The installers and those responsible for drafting the specifications are obliged to comply with local safety codes and regulations in the case of refrigerant leakage.
CAUTION

  • Check for refrigerant leakage in detail. If a large refrigerant leakage occurred, it would cause difficulty with breathing or harmful gases would occur if a fire were in the room.
  • If the flare nut is tightened too hard, it may crack over time and cause refrigerant leakage.

◆ Maximum permitted concentration of HFCs
The refrigerant R410A (charged in the outdoor unit) is an incombustible and non-toxic gas. However, if leakage occurs and gas fills a room, it may cause suffocation.
The maximum permissible concentration of HFC gas according to EN378-1 is:

Refrigerant Maximum permissible concentration (kg/m3)
R410A 0.44

The minimum volume of a closed room where the system is installed to avoid suffocation in case of leakage is:

System combination Minimum volume (m3)
4 HP 7.5
5/6 HP 7.8
8 HP 11.4
10 HP 12.1

The formula used for the calculation of the maximum allowed refrigerant concentration in case of refrigerant leakage is the following:

R
— = C
V| R: Total quantity of refrigerant charged (kg)
V: Room volume (m³)
C: Refrigerant concentration
---|---

If the room volume is below the minimum value, some effective measure must be taken account after installing to prevent suffocation in case of leakage.

4.3 R32 REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
4.3.1 General notes R32 refrigerant
This appliance is filled with R32, an odourless flammable refrigerant gas with low burning velocity (A2L class pursuant to ISO 817). If the refrigerant is leaked, there is a possibility of ignition if it enters in contact with an external ignition source.
Make sure that unit installation and refrigerant piping installation comply with applicable legislation in each country. Also, in Europe, EN378 must be complied, as it is the applicable standard.
4.3.2 Refrigerant piping
◆  Refrigerant piping length between indoor unit and outdoor unit
The unit installation and refrigerant piping should comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed refrigerant.
Due to R32 refrigerant and depending on final refrigerant charge amount, a minimum floor area for installation must be considered.

  • If total refrigerant charge amount <1.84kg, there are no additional minimum floor area requirements.
  • If total refrigerant charge amount ≥1.84kg, there are additional minimum floor area requirements to be checked.

New YUTAKI R32 range (2~3HP) due to low refrigerant charge amount and due to low additional charge needed, unit installation can achieve up to 30m (2/2.5HP) / 27m (3HP) without any minimum floor area requirement.

  • A 3-way valve (ATW-3WV-01 accessory) (9) must be connected at one point of the water outlet pipe of the installation.
  • A T-branch (field supplied) (10) must be connected at one point of the water inlet pipe of the installation.
  • Two water pipes (field supplied) (11). One pipe between 3-way valve and the heating coil inlet (3) of the DHW tank, the other one between the T-branch and the heating coil outlet (4) of the DHW tank.

Additionally, the following elements are required for the DHW circuit:

  • 1 Shut-off valve (field supplied): one shut-off valve (4) must be connected after the DHW outlet connection of the DHW tank (2) in order to make easier any maintenance work.
  • A Security water valve (Field-supplied): this accessory (3) is a pressure and temperature relief valve that must be installed as near as possible to the DHW inlet connection of the DHW tank (1). It should ensure a correct draining (5) for the discharge valve of this valve. This security water valve should provide the following:
    – Pressure protection
    – Non-return function
    – Shut-off valve
    – Filling
    – Draining

NOTE
The discharge pipe should always be open to the atmosphere, free of frost and in continuous slope to the down side in case that water leakage exists.

  • 2 Shut-off valves (field supplied) (5): one before the recirculation water pump (4) and other after the water check valve accessory (3).

4.4.4 Requirements and recommendations for the hydraulic circuit

  • The maximum piping length depends on the maximum pressure availability in the water outlet pipe. Please check the pump curves.

  • The indoor unit is equipped with an air purger (factory supplied) at the highest location of the Indoor Unit. If this location is not the highest of the water installation, air might be trapped inside the water pipes, which could cause system malfunction. In that case additional air purgers (field supplied) should be installed to ensure no air enters the water circuit.

  • For heating floor system, the air should be purged by means of an external pump and an open circuit to avoid air bags.

  • When the unit is stopped during shut-off periods and the ambient temperature is very low, the water inside the pipes and the circulating pump may freeze, thus damaging the pipes and the water pump. In these cases, the installer shall ensure that the water temperature inside the pipes does not fall below the freezing point. In order to prevent this, the unit has a self-protection mechanism which should be activated (refer to the Service manual, “Optional functions” chapter).

  • Check that the water pump of the space heating circuit works within the pump operating range and that the water flow is over the pump’s minimum. If the water flow is below 12 litres/minute for 4.0-10.0 HP unit (6 litres/minute for 2.0/2.5/3.0HP unit),alarm is displayed on the unit.

  • An additional special water filter is highly recommended to be installed on the space heating (field installation), in order to remove possible particles remaining from brazing which cannot be removed by the indoor unit water strainer.

  • When selecting a tank for DHW operation, take into consideration the following points:
    – The storage capacity of the tank has to meet with the daily consumption in order to avoid stagnation of water.
    – Fresh water must circulate inside the DHW tank water circuit at least one time per day during the first days after the installation has been performed. Additionally, flush the system with fresh water when there is no consumption of DHW during long periods of time.
    – Try to avoid long runs of water piping between the tank and the DHW installation in order to decrease possible temperature losses.
    – lf the domestic cold water entry pressure is higher than the equipment’s design pressure (6 bar), a pressure reducer must be fitted with a nominal value of 7 bar.

  • Ensure that the installation complies with applicable legislation in terms of piping connection and materials, hygienic measures, testing and the possible required use of some specific components like thermostatic mixing valves, Differential pressure overflow valve, etc.

  • The maximum water pressure is 3 bar (nominal opening pressure of the safety valve). Provide adequate reduction pressure device in the water circuit to ensure that the maximum pressure is NOT exceeded.

  • Ensure that the drain pipes connected to the safety valve and to the air purger are properly driven to avoid water being in contact with unit components.

  • Make sure that all field supplied components installed in the piping circuit can withstand the water pressure and the water temperature range in which the unit can operate.

  • YUTAKI units are conceived for exclusive use in a closed water circuit.

  • The internal air pressure of the expansion vessel tank will be adapted to the water volume of the final installation (factory supplied with 0.1 MPa of internal air pressure).

  • Do not add any type of glycol to the water circuit.

  • Drain taps must be provided at all low points of the installation to permit complete drainage of the circuit during servicing.

  • Water quality must be according to EU council directive 98/83 EC.
  • Water should be subjected to filtration or to a softening treatment with chemicals before application as treated water.
  • It is also necessary to analyse the quality of water by checking pH, electrical conductivity, ammonia ion content, sulphur content, and others. Should the results of the analysis be not good, the use of industrial water would be recommended.
  • No antifreeze agent shall be added to the water circuit.
  • To avoid deposits of scale on the heat exchangers surface it is mandatory to ensure a high water quality with low levels of CaCO3.

Before water filling, sludge removal (for existing water networks), cleansing and rinsing (for an existing or new installations water networks) it is important to cleanse all hydraulic pipes to remove sludge and scale by using a specific designed product for cleaning central heating systems.
Also, its recommended to use a product inhibitor for protecting central heating systems against limescale and corrosion, always following manufacturer’s instructions and ensuring that the product is suitable for the material used in the water network and the YUTAKI unit.
When using chemical treatments and inhibitors always follow manufacturer’s instructions and ensure that the product is appropriate for the total water system. Using filling water that does not meet the stated quality requirements can cause a considerably reduce in service life. The responsibility will be out of Hitachi warranties.
The following water quality minimum requirement:

Parameter Parameter Value Unit
pH 6.5 to 8.5
Conductivity 10~500 µs/cm
Alkalinity 60~300 mg/l
Total Hardness 6~15 ºfH
0.6~1.5 mmol/l
60~150 mg CaCO3/I
Chlorine <50 mg CI¯/I
Sulphate <50 (mg SO4 2-/l)
Nitrate <100 mg/l (NO3)
Iron <0.2 mg/l (Fe)
TDS (Total dissolved solids) 8~400 ppm
Appearance of the water Clear and without deposits

Additional DHW Circuit recommendation
In places where possible hard water areas, to prevent and minims scale situations, it is recommended to reduce stored water temperature to a maximum of 55°C, as huge scale quantity could damage the water tank and the electrical heater.
Flush the domestic water circuit with at least 10 times its volume of water. The life of the water tank will be shorter if groundwater (spring water, well water, etc..) is used without treatment which can lead to the corrosion of the tank. The water must not be aggressive or encrusting at any time. The result of calculating the Langelier Index should be between +/- 0.5.
In installation locations where the result of Langelier Index calculation are out of the expected value with a tendency to corrosive water, it is recommended to install the active anode accessory (ATW-CP-05 only available for YUTAKI H Combi version).
In the regions where the water is very hard (or out of requirements values) or where the result of Langelier Index calculation are out of expected value with a tendency to hard water, it is recommended fitting a softener system. Please ensure that softener system will be capable of providing effective protection against corrosion. It is recommended to install the active anode accessory (ATW-CP-05 only available for YUTAKI H Combi version).
As DHW Tank water is being used for storing drinking water, this water has to be in accordance with national regulations and Hitachi’s quality minimum requirements. The use of softeners, active anodes or others protective systems will not bring a derogation from Hitachi’s provided warranty.

4.4.6 Water filling

  1. Check that a water check valve (ATW-WCV-01 accessory) with a shut-off valve (field supplied) is connected to the water filling point (water inlet connection) for filling the space heating hydraulic circuit (see “4.4 Space heating and DHW”).

  2. Make sure all the valves are open (water inlet/outlet shut-off valves and the rest of valves of the space heating installation components).

  3. Ensure that the air purgers of the indoor unit and installation are open (turn the indoor unit air purger twice at least).

  4. Check that the drain pipes connected to the safety valve (and to the drain pan in case of installing the “Cooling kit” accessory) are correctly connected to the general draining system. The safety valve is later used as an air purging device during the water filling procedure.

  5. Fill the space heating circuit with water until the pressure displayed on the manometer reaches approximately 1.8 bar.
    NOTE
    While the system is being filled with water, it is highly recommended to operate the safety valve manually so as to help with the air purging procedure.

  6. Remove as much air from inside the water circuit as possible through the indoor air purger and other air vents in the installation (fan coils, radiators…).

  7. Start the air purge procedure test. There are two modes (Manual or Automatic) which helps in case of installations with heating and DHW operation:
    a. Manual: Start and stop the unit manually using the unit controller (Run/Stop button) and also using the DSW4 pin 2 of the PCB1 (ON: Forced to derive to DHW coil;
    OFF: Forced to derive to space heating).
    b. Automatic: Select the air purge function using the user controller. When the automatic air purge function is running, the pump speed and the position of the 3-way valve (space heating or DHW) are automatically changed.HITACHI
RWM Yutaki S Series Indoor Units - pump speed

  8. If a little quantity of air is still remaining in the water circuit, it will be removed by the automatic air purger of the indoor unit during the first hours of operation. Once the air in the installation has been removed, a reduction of water pressure in the circuit is very likely to occur. Therefore, additional water should be filled until water pressure returns to an approximate level of 1.8 bar.

NOTE

  • The indoor unit is equipped with an automatic air purger (factory supplied) at the highest location of the indoor unit. Anyway, if there are higher points in the water installation, air might be trapped inside water pipes, which could cause system  alfunction. In that case, additional air purgers (field supplied) should be installed to ensure no air enters into the water circuit. The air vents should be located at points which are easily accessible for servicing.
  • The water pressure indicated on the indoor unit manometer may vary depending on the water temperature (the higher temperature, the higher pressure). Nevertheless, it must remain above 1 bar in order to prevent air from entering the circuit.
  • Fill in the circuit with tap water. The water in the heating installation must comply with EN directive 98/83 EC. Non-sanitary controlled water is not recommended (for example, water from wells, rivers, lakes, etc.)
  • The maximum water pressure is 3 bar (nominal opening pressure of the safety valve). Provide adequate reduction pressure device in the water circuit to ensure that the maximum pressure is NOT exceeded.
  • For heating floor system, air should be purged by means of an external pump and an open circuit to prevent the formation of air pockets.
  • Check carefully for leaks in the water circuit, connections and circuit elements.

ELECTRICAL AND CONTROL SETTINGS

5.1 GENERAL CHECK

  • Make sure that the following conditions related to power supply installation are satisfied:

COMMISSIONING

7.1 BEFORE OPERATION

CAUTION

  • Supply electrical power to the system for approximately 12 hours before start-up after a long shut-off. Do not start the system immediately after power supply, it may cause compressor failure because the compressor is not well-heated.
  • When the system is started after a shut-off longer than approximately 3 months, it is recommended that the system be checked by your service contractor.
  • Turn OFF the main switch when the system is to be stopped for a long period of time: as the oil heater is always energized even when the compressor is not working, there will be electricity consumption unless the main switch is turned OFF.

7.2 PRELIMINARY CHECK
When installation is complete, perform commissioning according to the following procedure, and hand over the system to the customer. Perform the commissioning of the units methodically, and check that the electrical wiring and the piping are correctly connected.
Indoor and outdoor units must be configured by the installer to get the perfect setting and the unit working.
NOTE
For the commissioning of the outdoor unit please refer to the outdoor unit installation and operation manual.

7.2.1 Checking the unit

  • Check external appearance of the unit to look for any damage due to transportation or installation.
  • Check that all the covers are totally closed.
  • Check that the recommended service space is respected (see “3.1 Service space” and the outdoor unit Installation and operation manual).
  • Check that the unit has been correctly installed onto the wall.

7.2.2 Electrical checking
CAUTION
Do not operate the system until all the check points have been cleared:

  • Check to ensure that the electrical resistance is more than 1 MΩ, by measuring the resistance between ground and electrical parts terminal. If not, do not operate the system until the electrical leakage is found and repaired. Do not impress the voltage on the terminals for transmission and sensors.
  • Check to ensure that the switch on the main power source has been ON for more than 12 hours, in order to give the oil heater time to warm the compressor.
  • In three-phase unit check phase sequence connection on terminal board.
  • Check the power supply voltage (±10% of the rated voltage).
  • Check that field-supplied electrical components (main switches, breakers, wires, conduit connectors and wire terminals) have been properly selected according to the electrical specifications given in this document, and check that the components comply with national and local standards.
  • Do not touch any electrical components for more than three minutes after turning OFF the main switch.
  • Check the dip switch settings of the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are connected as shown in the corresponding chapter.
  • Check to ensure the electrical wiring of the indoor unit and the outdoor unit are connected as shown in the chapter.
  • Check to ensure the external wiring is correctly fixed. To avoid problems with vibrations, noises and cut out wires with the plates.

7.2.3 Hydraulic circuit checking (space heating and DHW)

  • Check that the circuit has been properly flushed and filled with water and that the installation has been drained: the pressure of the heating circuit must be 1.8 bar.
  • Check for any leakage in water cycle. Pay special attention to the water piping connections.
  • Make sure the system’s internal water volume is correct.
  • Check that the hydraulic circuit’s valves are fully open.
  • Check to see that electrical heater is completely filled with water by operating pressure of safety valve.
  • Check to see that additional water pumps (WP2 or/and WP3) are correctly connected to terminal board.

CAUTION

  • Operating the system with closed valves will damage the unit.
  • Check to see that air purge valve is open and that the hydrau lic circuit is air purged. The installer is responsible of com pletely air purging the installation.
  • Check that the water pump of the space heating circuit works within the pump operating range and that the water flow is over the pump’s minimum. If the water flow is under 12 litres/minute for 4.0-10.0 HP (6 litres/minute for 2.0/2.5/3.0HP unit) (with flow switch tolerance), alarm will be displayed on the unit.
  • Remember that water connection must be accordance with local regulations.
  • Water quality must comply with EU directive 98/83 EC.
  • Electrical heater operation when not completely filled with water will damage the heater.

7.2.4 Checking the refrigerant circuit

  • Check to ensure that the stop valves on the gas and liquid lines are fully open.
  • Check that the size of the piping and the refrigerant charge comply with the applicable recommendations.
  • Check the inside of the unit for refrigerant leakage. If there is a refrigerant leak, call your dealer.
  • Check outdoor unit commissioning procedure manual.

7.3 COMMISSIONING PROCEDURE
This procedure is valid regardless of what options are on the module.

  • When installation is complete and all necessary settings (Dip-switches in PCBs and user controller configuration) have been carried out, close the electrical box and place the cabinet as shown in the manual.
  • Make the start-up wizard configuration in the user controller.
  • Make a test run as shown in item “7.4 Test run / air purge”.
  • After test run is completed, start the entire unit or the selected circuit by pressing the OK button.

Initial start-up at low outdoor ambient temperatures

During commissioning and when water temperature is very low, it is important for the water to be heated gradually.
Additional optional function can be used for starting at low water temperature conditions: Screed drying function:
– The screed function is used exclusively for the process of drying a newly applied screed to the floor heating system.
The process is based on EN-1264 par 4.
– When user activates screed function, the water set point follows a predetermined schedule:

  1. Water set point is kept constant at 25ºC for 3 days.
  2. Water set-point is set to the maximum Heating supply temperature (but always limited to ≤ 55ºC) for 4 days.

CAUTION

  • Heating at lower water temperatures (approximately 10ºC to 15ºC) and lower outdoor ambient temperatures (<10ºC) can be damaging to the heat pump when defrosting.
  • As a result, Heating up to 15ºC when outdoor temperature is lower than 10ºC is performed by the Electrical Heater.

NOTE
In case of Heater Forced OFF (by optional dip switch setting) these condition is not performed and heating is performed by Heat Pump. Hitachi is not responsible for its operation.

CAUTION
It is recommended start the unit (first power ON) with heater forced OFF and compressor forced OFF (See “5.6 Setting of DIP switches and RSW switches”). In order to circulate water by water pump and remove possible air into the heater (Check heater completely filled).

7.4 TEST RUN / AIR PURGE
Test run is a working mode used when commissioning the installation. Some settings are made to let the installer an easy job. Air purge function drives the pump in a way for evacuating air bubbles in the installation.

HITACHI RWM Yutaki S Series Indoor Units - drives

This menu shows the following test to be launched:

  • Unit Test Run
