7 Condensate connection
and safe drainage
n The condensate tray should have an incline of
min. 2%. This is the responsibility of the cus-
tomer. If necessary, fit vapour-diffusion-proof
insulation.
n IIf the level of the condensation pipe on the unit
is above that of the outlet, route the pipe verti-
cally upwards and then with a fall to the drain
n Guide the unit’s condensation pipe into the
drain pipe. If the condensation is being guided
to a drainage pipe, please install a siphon-like
hose guideway which acts as an odour seal.
The diameter of the condens connecting piece
is 25 mm.
n When operating the unit at outside tempera-
tures below 4 °C, ensure the condensate
drainage is laid to protect it against frost. The
lower part of the housing and condensate tray
is also to be kept frost free in order to ensure
permanent draining of the condensate. If nec-
essary, fit a pipe heater.
n Following installation, check that the conden-
sate run off is unobstructed and ensure that the
line is durably leak tight.
Condensate draining
If the temperature falls below the dew point, con-
densation will form on the cooling fins during
cooling mode. A collection tray together with a con-
densation pump and float switch are fitted as
standard below the cooling fins. Should the float
switch trip a protective shutdown due to inade-
quate removal of the condensation, the pump will
switch on immediately and run on for approx. three
minutes.
Ensured discharge in the event of leakage
NOTICE!
Local regulations or environmental laws, for
example the German Water Resource Law
(WHG), can require suitable precautions to
protect against uncontrolled draining in case of
leakage to provide for safe disposal of
escaping refrigerator oil or hazardous media.
NOTICE!
The maximum capacity of the condensate
pump is 500 mm WS. External influences, such
as air-side back pressure, contamination, or
wear may cause a reduction in performance.
To ensure safe operation function, we recom-
mend a maximum conveyor height of 450 mm
should not be exceeded!
