Connecting the ductwork

  • Active chilled beams are fitted with a primary air (outdoor air) spigot. A connection for exhaust air extraction is optionally integrated.

  • Spigots are suitable for circular ducts according to EN 1506 or EN 13180.

  • The optional extract air spigot (diameter 123 mm) is fitted to one end of the active chilled beam at a 45°angle. The extract air spigot may be on the same side as the primary air spigot or on the opposite side.

  • The air discharge pattern can be changed by adjusting the optional air control blades in 15° increments up to 45° to the left or right.

  • Three different air distribution patterns can be set.

  • NOTICE!

    • Incorrect handling will damage the air control blades!

To avoid any damage, always use both hands to adjust the air control blades.

  1. Straight air discharge
  2. Angled air discharge
  3. Divergent air discharge

Connecting the water pipes

  •  CAUTION!

  • Hot surface!

  • Danger of burn or scald injuries when working on the hot water system.

  • Before working on the water-side connections, shut down the system, depressurise it and let it cool down.

  • The heat exchanger is fitted with water flow and water return connections:

  • 2-pipe system: 2 water connections

  • 4-pipe system: 4 water connections
    Make sure that the water temperature does not fall below the dew point.

Ensure that the surfaces for seals are clean

  1.  Insert seal and tighten screw connection by hand.

    • NOTICE!
    • Incorrect assembly will damage the heat exchanger!
    • Always use a suitable tool to counter the tightening force in order to prevent any damage.
  2. Tighten threaded connections with a wrench.
    NOTICE!

    • Damage to the heat exchanger due to frost!
    • Only fill the heat exchanger if there is no danger of freezing.

Initial commissioning
Before you start commissioning:

  • Check active chilled beams for correct position
  • Remove protective film, if any
  • Ensure that all active chilled beams are clean and free from residues and foreign matter

NOTICE!
Hygienic requirements for ventilation and air conditioning systems must be carried out in accordance with VDI 6022, Sheet 1.

  • Check water connections for correct installation (connection hoses with oxygen diffusion barrier)

NOTICE!
The commissioning procedure is described in detail in BTGA rule 3.002Carry out leak and pressure tests

  • Flushing the system
  • Filling and venting the water-bearing system
  •  Carry out hydraulic balancing of the control zones.
  • Actual/target comparison of the water parameters of the filling water

NOTICE!
Parallel consideration of the requirements for preventing damage in water circuits in accordance \ with VDI/BTGA 6044 (cold water and cooling circuits) and VDI 2035 Sheet 1 (for hot water – heating systems) is the responsibility of the competent person. The water-bearing system must be assessed as a whole so that it complies with the applicable regulations in both cooling and heating mode. Filling and supplemental water must be filled into the system with the appropriate water quality in order to ensure the long-term operation of the system.

  • Pressure testing
    A pressure test must be carried out pneumatically or hydraulically in closed water-based heating and cold or cooling water circuits in accordance with the general rules of technology or BTGA 3.002, and recorded. The hydraulic test should be carried out with the appropriate filling water quality. A pneumatic test is carried out with air or inert gas.

  • Rinsing/Flushing
    Rinsing removes unwanted dirt particles from the water circuit. We recommend flushing with the appropriate filling water quality and taking a water sample at the end of the flushing process. Make sure that the system is completely emptied after the flushing process and then filled with suitable filling water.

  • Filling the system
    After flushing, the system must be filled with suit-able filling and supplemental water. Manufacturers’ information for all installed components must be observed. Particular attention must be paid to compliance with the quality of the filling and supple-mental water. During the water filling of the system, as well as during the necessary pressing or draining processes, it is recommended that these are permanently monitored.

  • Venting
    Ensure complete venting to avoid problems in the system and to ensure full performance of the water-bearing systems. Since a continuously rising conduit to a venting point is usually impossible, thorough flushing is recommended until the system is air-free. Upstream installations must also be air-free so that no air is introduced into the ceiling system via supply lines.

Maintenance and cleaning

  • Maintenance
    The water quality may change during operation. The water quality must be monitored and documented at regular intervals to prevent corrosion.

Cleaning
During cleaning, the following points must be observed:

  • Clean surfaces with a damp cloth.
  • Use only common household cleaners, do not use any aggressive cleaning agents.
  • Do not use cleaning agents that contain chlorine.
  • Do not use equipment for removing stubborn contamination, e.g., scrubbing sponges or scouring cream, as it may damage the surfaces.
  • The cleaning intervals given in the VDI 6022 standard apply.

Cleaning the heat exchanger

  • Personnel:
  • Trained personnel

Protective equipment:

  • Industrial safety helmet
  • Safety shoes
  • Protective gloves

CAUTION!

  • Hot surface!
  • Danger of burn or scald injuries when working on the hot water system.
  • Before working on the unit, shut down the system, depressurize it and let it cool down.

CAUTION!

  • Danger of cutting your fingers on the fins of the heat exchanger
  • The heat exchanger has thin fins, which are very sharp; when you touch them, there is a danger of your cutting your fingers.
  • To avoid injuries, proceed carefully and wear protective gloves when you work on the heat exchanger.

Maintenance and cleaning

  1. To open the induced air grille, release the interlock and swivel the grille downwards. To completely remove the grille, loosen the bolts with an SW3 Allen key.
  2. Carefully clean the heat exchanger with an industrial vacuum cleaner. Be careful so as not to bend any blades. We recommend using a soft brush attachment for cleaning.
  3. After cleaning, screw-fix and close the grille. TROX-DID632-Active-Chilled-Beams- \(23\)TROX-DID632-Active-Chilled-Beams- \(22\)
