ENVISION CONSOLE - 50 HZ INSTALLATION MANUAL

Always maintain water pressure in the heat exchanger by

placing water control valves at the outlet of the unit to

prevent mineral precipitation. Use a closed, bladder-type

expansion tank to minimize mineral formation due to air

exposure. Ensure proper water flow through the unit by

checking pressure drop across the heat exchanger and

comparing it to the figures in unit capacity data tables

in the specification catalog. .09-.13 l/s of flow per kW of

cooling capacity is recommended in open loop applications.

Discharge water from the unit is not contaminated in any

manner and can be disposed of in various ways, depending

on local codes, i.e. recharge well, storm sewer, drain field,

adjacent stream or pond, etc. Most local codes forbid

the use of sanitary sewer for disposal. Consult your local

building and zoning departments to assure compliance in

your area.

Open Loop Ground Water Systems

NOTE: For open loop/groundwater systems or systems

that do not contain an antifreeze solution, set SW1-Switch

#2 to the “WELL” position

(Refer to the Dip Switch Field

Selection table). Slow opening/closing solenoid valves

(type VM) are recommended to eliminate water hammer.
