The heat pump utilises (as does the fridge) the natural

refrigerant circuit by means of an evaporator,
compressor, condenser and expansion valve. During this
process, the heat pump “pumps” heat from the
environment to a higher temperature level which can be
used for heating.

2.2.4 Comparison of COPs for various heat pumps
according to DIN-EN 14511
DIN-EN 14511 specifies the conditions for determining
the coefficient of performance, e.g. the type of heat
source and the temperature of its heat transfer medium,
for the purpose of carrying out rough comparisons
between different heat pumps.

2) Heat sink and appliance outlet temperature (heating flow)
A Air
B Brine
W Water
In addition to the power consumption of the
compressor, the coefficient of performance according to
DIN-EN 14511 also takes the drive output of auxiliary
gensets, the proportional pump output of the brine
pump or water pump, or the proportional fan output for
air to water heat pumps, into account.
Significant differences in coefficients of performance
are also obtained in practise by differentiating between
appliances with a built-in pump and appliances without
a built-in pump. It therefore only makes sense to directly
compare heat pumps of the same type.
The coefficients of performance specified
for Junkers heat pumps (, COP) are based
on the refrigerant circuit (without
proportional pump output) and also on the
calculation method of DIN-EN 14511 for
appliances with built-in pump.
2.2.5 Comparison of different heat pumps
according to DIN-EN 14825
DlN EN 14825, among other things, takes heat pumps
with electrically-powered compressors for heating and
cooling of rooms into account. The requirements for
testing and measuring the output under partial load
conditions and for calculating the seasonal coefficient of
performance for heating and cooling are defined in this
standard (heating: SCOP = Seasonal Coefficient of
Performance; cooling: SEER = Seasonal Energy
Efficiency Ratio). This is important in order to be able to
make representative comparisons between modulating
heat pumps during changing seasonal conditions.
2.2.6 Seasonal performance factor
As the coefficient of performance only provides a
snapshot which reflects the specific conditions that
apply in each case, the performance factor is stated in
addition. This is normally stated as the seasonal
performance factor  and reflects the ratio between the
useful heat in total produced by the heat pump system
throughout the year and the electrical energy consumed
by the system in the same period.
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
Basic principles | 11
VDI directive 4650 provides a method that makes it possible
to convert the coefficients of performance from test bench
measurements to the seasonal performance factor for real
operation under actual operating conditions.
The seasonal performance factor can be roughly calculated.
Thereby the type of heat pump and various correction
factors for the operating conditions are taken into account.
In the meantime, software-supported simulation
calculations can be used to calculate precise values.
The following is a highly simplified method for
calculating the seasonal performance factor:

2.2.7 Expenditure factor
In order to be able to energetically assess different
heating technologies, also for heat pumps the so-called
expenditure factors e according to DIN V 4701-10, which
are used today, should be introduced.
The expenditure factor for heat generation (eg) specifies
how much non-renewable energy a system requires in
order to perform its function. In the case of a heat pump,
the expenditure factor for heat generation is the inverse
of the seasonal performance factor:

Wel Quantity of electrical energy consumed by the
heat pump system during a year in kWh
2.2.8 Consequences for system planning
When planning the system, the coefficient of performance
and associated seasonal performance factor can be
positively influenced by skilfully selecting the appropriate
heat source and heat distribution system:
The smaller the difference between the flow
temperature and heat source temperature, the more
favourable the coefficient of performance will be.
The best coefficient of performance is obtained with the
heat source at high temperatures and the heat
distribution system at low flow temperatures.
Low flow temperatures are particularly easy to achieve
with area heating systems.
When planning the system, a balance needs to be found
between an effective mode of operation of the heat
pump system and the investment costs, i.e. the
expenditure required to design the system.

3.1.3 Function description
Heat pump
• Where systems with air to water heat pumps are
operated from a single energy source, the heat
required for the heating system is generated by the
heat pump and also - if required - by the electric
booster heater integrated into the heat pump
compact unit ACM.
Control and user interface
• The HPC 400 user interface is permanently integrated
into the heat pump compact unit ACM and cannot be
removed.
• The HPC 400 user interface controls the two heating/
cooling circuits and the DHW heating.
• The HPC 400 user interface has an integrated heat
quantity measurement system.
• A control cable (CAN-BUS between heat pump and
compact unit, cable cross section 0.75 mm2) is
required to establish the connection with the heat
pump (outdoor), in addition to the power supply.
• The HPC 400 user interface and the MM 100 heating
circuit module are connected to one another via a
EMS-2-BUS cable.
• Pure heating circuits can be equipped with a remote
control CR 10. Heating/cooling circuits require the
CR 10 H remote control with integrated air humidity
sensor for monitoring the dew point.
Heating mode
• The heat for heating circuit 1 is adjusted via the VC1
mixer with reference to the set temperature. A TC1
flow temperature sensor is required to control the
mixer.
• The heat for heating circuit 2 is likewise adjusted via
the dedicated VC1 mixer with reference to the set
temperature. A TC1 flow temperature sensor is
required to control the mixer.
• A MC1 underfloor temperature limiter can be installed
in addition to each heating/cooling circuit to protect
an underfloor heating system.
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
System examples | 13
DHW operation
• The DHW cylinder integrated into the compact unit
ACM is heated by the heat pump and supplies the
connected draw-off points with domestic hot water.
• If the temperature at the cylinder temperature sensor
(in the ACM) falls below the set value, the compressor
starts. The DHW heating runs until the set stop
temperature is reached.
• The VC0 diverter valve runs the flow during DHW
heating in short circuit until the flow temperature is
as high as the temperature at the cylinder
temperature sensor (TW1, integrated into the ACM).
This measure prevents the buffer cylinder from
cooling down when the heat pump starts and allows
the heat pump to operate more efficiently.
Cooling mode
• The SupraEco SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT heat pump with
the PSW ...-5 buffer cylinder is suitable only for
passive cooling through wall, underfloor or ceiling
heating, since this buffer is not designed to operate
below the dew point.
• To be able to start the cooling mode, the CR 10 H
remote control with air humidity sensor is required.
The minimum permissible flow temperature is
calculated based on the room temperature and air
humidity.
• An energised contact for switching between heating
and cooling mode is made available via the PK2
contact.
• A MK2 condensation point sensor (accessory) is
required at the flow to the cooling circuits to prevent
undercutting of the dew point. Several condensation
point sensors may be required, depending on the pipe
routing.
• Active cooling below the dew point is possible only
with a buffer cylinder equipped with diffusion-
resistant insulation.
Pumps
• HE pumps can be connected without isolating relay to
the SEC 20 and MM 100. Maximum load at relay
output: 2 A, cos  > 0.4.
• The pump in the compact unit ACM is controlled via a
0...10 V signal.
Terminals
• The following are connected to the SEC 20
installation module:
– the T0 and T1 temperature sensors, and the MK2
condensation point sensor,
– the external VC0 diverter valve
– the PW2 DHW circulation pump.
• The following are connected to the MM 100 heating
circuit modules:
– components TC1, PC1 and MC1 of the respective
heating/cooling circuit.

3.2.1 Area of application
• Single-family home
• Two-family home
3.2.2 System components
• Reversible air to water heat pump SupraEco A SAO ...-
2/SAO ...-2 HT
• Compact unit ACM with HPC 400 user interface
• Bypass between flow and return
• 1 non-mixed and 1 mixed heating/cooling circuit,
each with a CR 10 H remote control
3.2.3 Function description
Heat pump
• Where systems with air to water heat pumps are
operated from a single energy source, the heat
required for the heating system is generated by the
heat pump and also - if required - by the electric
booster heater integrated into the heat pump
compact unit ACM.
Control and user interface
• The HPC 400 user interface is permanently integrated
into the heat pump compact unit ACM and cannot be
removed.
• The HPC 400 user interface controls the two heating/
cooling circuits and the DHW heating.
• The HPC 400 user interface has an integrated heat
quantity measurement system.
• A control cable (CAN-BUS between heat pump and
compact unit, cable cross section 0.75 mm2) is
required to establish the connection with the heat
pump (outdoor), in addition to the power supply.
• The HPC 400 user interface and the MM 100 heating
circuit module are connected to one another via a
EMS-2-BUS cable.
• Pure heating circuits can be equipped with a remote
control CR 10. Heating/cooling circuits require the
CR 10 H remote control with integrated air humidity
sensor for monitoring the dew point.
Heating mode
• A bypass (included in the ACM scope of delivery) is
required between flow and return to separate the
generator and consumer circuits in order to guarantee
the minimum flow rate at low take-off in the heating
circuit. Alternatively, a buffer cylinder can be used
( Fig. 6).
• The heat for the 2nd heating circuit is adjusted via the
dedicated VC1 mixer with reference to the set
temperature. A TC1 flow temperature sensor is
required to control the mixer.
• A MC1 underfloor temperature limiter can also be
installed at each heating circuit to protect an
underfloor heating system.

System examples | 15
DHW operation
• The DHW cylinder integrated into the compact unit
ACM is heated by the heat pump and supplies the
connected draw-off points with domestic hot water.
• If the temperature at the cylinder temperature sensor
(in the ACM) falls below the set value, the compressor
starts. The DHW heating runs until the set stop
temperature is reached.
• During the start phase of DHW heating, the heating
circuit pumps are deactivated until the flow
temperature of the heat pump is higher than the
temperature at the DHW temperature sensor (in the
ACM). During this time, the flow rate circulates via the
bypass of the safety assembly. The domestic hot
water diverter valve (in the ACM) then switches to
DHW operation and the heating circuit pumps are
switched on again. This function allows the heat
pump to operate more efficiently.
Cooling mode
• To be able to start the cooling mode, the CR 10 H
remote control with air humidity sensor is required.
The minimum permissible flow temperature is
calculated based on the room temperature and air
humidity.
• An energised contact for switching between heating
and cooling mode is made available via the PK2
contact.
• A MK2 condensation point sensor is required at the
flow to the cooling circuits to prevent undercutting of
the dew point. Several condensation point sensors
may be required, depending on the pipe routing.
• Cooling via an SAO ...-2 HT air to water heat pump
requires the potentiometer default setting to be
retained.
Pumps
• HE pumps can be connected without isolating relay to
the SEC 20 and MM 100. Maximum load at relay
output: 2 A, cos  > 0.4.
• The pump in the compact unit ACM is controlled via a
0...10 V signal.
Terminals
• The following are connected to the SEC 20
installation module:
– the T0 and T1 temperature sensors, and the MK2
condensation point sensor,
– the PW2 DHW circulation pump and the PC1
heating circuit pump of the 1st heating/cooling
circuit.
• The following are connected to the MM 100 heating
circuit module:
– components TC1, PC1 and MC1 of the 2nd heating/
cooling circuit.

dedicated VC1 mixer with reference to the set
temperature. A TC1 flow temperature sensor is
required to control the mixer.
• A MC1 underfloor temperature limiter can be installed
in addition to each heating/cooling circuit to protect
an underfloor heating system.
DHW operation
• The DHW heating is achieved via the heat pump and,
where necessary, via the second heat source.
• The external DHW cylinder is heated by the heat pump
and supplies the connected draw-off points with
domestic hot water.
• If the temperature at the TW1 cylinder temperature
sensor falls below the set value, the compressor
starts. The DHW heating runs until the set stop
temperature is reached.
• The VC0 diverter valve runs the flow during DHW
heating in short circuit until the flow temperature is
as high as the temperature at the TW1 cylinder
temperature sensor. This measure prevents the DHW
cylinder from cooling down when the heat pump
starts and allows the heat pump to operate more
efficiently.
• The wall mounted gas condensing boiler is used for
thermal disinfection of the DHW.
• To protect against excessive return temperatures/
thermal circulation, a non-return valve is required
between DHW cylinder and heat pump compact unit
ACB.
Cooling mode
• The SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT SupraEco heat pump with
the PSW ...-5 buffer cylinder is suitable only for
passive cooling through wall, underfloor or ceiling
heating, since this buffer is not designed to operate
below the dew point.
• To be able to start the cooling mode, the CR 10 H
remote control with air humidity sensor is required.
The minimum permissible flow temperature is
calculated based on the room temperature and air
humidity.
• The heat pump compact unit ACB and all pipes and
connections must be suitably insulated to protect
against condensation (min. 13 mm).
• An energised contact for switching between heating
and cooling mode is made available via the PK2
contact.
• A MK2 condensation point sensor (accessory) is
required at the flow to the cooling circuits to prevent
undercutting of the dew point. Several condensation
point sensors may be required, depending on the pipe
routing.

• If the temperature at the cylinder temperature sensor

• During the start phase of DHW heating, the heating
circuit pumps are deactivated until the flow
temperature of the heat pump is higher than the
temperature at the DHW temperature sensor (in the
ACM-solar). During this time, the flow rate circulates
via the bypass of the safety assembly. The domestic
hot water diverter valve (in the ACM-solar) then
switches to DHW operation and the heating circuit
pumps are switched on again. This function allows the
heat pump to operate more efficiently.

Swimming pool operation
• The swimming pool activation is via the MP 100
module. The module is used to determine the
swimming pool temperature and activate the VC1
mixer as required by the heat pump.
• The MP 100 module scope of delivery includes the
TC1 swimming pool sensor, which has to be installed
at a suitable swimming pool position. The swimming
pool control sends a heat request to the MP 100
module and via the MC1 contact to the heat pump. At
the same time, the swimming pool control must send
a request to the swimming pool pump. The heat pump
control uses the heating and DHW demand request to
assess whether the swimming pool heat exchanger
can additionally be supplied with heat.
• Via the swimming pool control, no voltage must be
applied to contacts 14, 15 of the MP 100 swimming
pool module.
• DHW/heating mode has priority over swimming pool
mode. The design of the heat exchanger for the
swimming pool must be adapted to the performance
and to the flow rate of the heat pump. We recommend
a temperature spread in the swimming pool heat
exchanger of max. 10 K.
• Parallel heating and swimming pool operation is
guaranteed by the VC1 mixing valve.

3.11.3 Function description
Heat pump/wall mounted gas condensing boiler
• With dual-fuel mode of operation, the heating energy
is produced by two different heat sources. The base-
load output is provided by the air to water heat pump.
The peak load is covered by the wall mounted gas
condensing boiler. This can be activated parallel or
alternative to the heat pump.
• The 3-way mixing valve in the heat pump compact unit
ACB ensures that the second heat source (or low loss
header) is passed by heating water only if necessary
and that the required heat is added to the heating
water.
• If the second heat source is not equipped with its own
heating pump, a low loss header and parallel buffer
cylinder must not be used.
Control and user interface
• The HPC 400 user interface is permanently integrated
into the heat pump compact unit ACB and cannot be
removed.
• The HPC 400 user interface controls the two heating
circuits and the DHW heating.
• The HPC 400 user interface has an integrated heat
quantity measurement system.
• A control cable (CAN-BUS between heat pump and
compact unit, cable cross section 0.75 mm2) is
required to establish the connection with the heat
pump (outdoor), in addition to the power supply.
• The controller module in the FWST-2 freshwater
station controls the freshwater station independently
and is not connected to the EMS-2-BUS cable of
HPC 400.
• The second heat source is switched on and off by the
HPC 400 user interface via a relay (230 VAC, on-site).
The relay is connected to the “On/Off temperature
controller” terminal of the second heat source.
• The HPC 400 user interface and the MM 100 heating
circuit module are connected to one another via a
EMS-2-BUS cable. The MS 100 solar module is
connected via a EMS-2-BUS cable to the SEC 20
installation module.
• Pure heating circuits can be equipped with a remote
control CR 10.
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
System examples | 35
Heating mode
• The heat for the two heating circuits is adjusted via
the VC1 mixer with reference to the set temperature.
A TC1 flow temperature sensor is required to control
the mixer.
• A MC1 underfloor temperature limiter can also be
installed at each heating circuit to protect an
underfloor heating system.
• To protect the heat pump compact unit ACB from
excessively high return temperatures, a non-return
valve must be installed in the return between PSW ...-
5 S solar cylinder and ACB.
DHW operation/solar
• The DHW is heated via the FWST-2 freshwater station
with integrated controller.
• The draw-off rate is up to 22 l/min with a DHW
temperature of 45 °C and a buffer temperature of
60 °C.
• A DHW circulation pump can be connected to the
FWST-2.
• If the temperature at the TW1 cylinder temperature
sensor falls below the set value, the compressor
starts. The DHW heating runs until the set stop
temperature is reached.
• The VC0 diverter valve runs the flow during DHW
heating in short circuit until the flow temperature is
as high as the temperature at the TW1 cylinder
temperature sensor. This measure prevents the DHW
cylinder from cooling down when the heat pump
starts and allows the heat pump to operate more
efficiently.
• The boiler is used for thermal disinfection of the DHW.
• The surface of the solar heat exchanger of the
PSW 750-5 S solar measures 2.2 m² and is therefore
suitable for 4-5 flat-plate collectors. The surface of the
solar heat exchanger of the PSW 1000-5 S solar
measures 2.6 m² and is therefore suitable for 5-6 flat-
plate collectors.
Cooling mode
• The SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT heat pump when combined
with a PSW ...-5 S solar cylinder is not suitable for
cooling via fan convectors or area heating.
Pumps
• HE pumps can be connected without isolating relay to
the SEC 20 and MM 100. Maximum load at relay
output: 2 A, cos  > 0.4.
• The pump in the compact unit ACB upstream of the
separating buffer cylinder is controlled via a 0...10 V
signal.

plate collectors.
Cooling mode
• The SupraEco SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT heat pump with
the PSW ...-5 buffer cylinder is suitable only for
passive cooling through wall, underfloor or ceiling
heating, since this buffer is not designed to operate

and cooling mode is made available via the PK2
contact.
• A MK2 condensation point sensor (accessory) is
required at the flow to the cooling circuits to prevent
undercutting of the dew point. Several condensation
point sensors may be required, depending on the pipe
routing.
• Active cooling below the dew point is possible only
with a buffer cylinder equipped with diffusion-

3.15.3 Function description
Heat pump
• With dual-fuel mode of operation, the heating energy
is produced by two different heat sources. The base-
load output is provided by the air to water heat pump.
The peak load is covered by the wall mounted gas
condensing boiler. This can be activated parallel or
alternative to the heat pump.
• The 3-way mixing valve in the heat pump compact unit
ACB ensures that the second heat source (or low loss
header) is passed by heating water only if necessary
and that the required heat is added to the heating
water.
• If the second heat source is not equipped with its own
heating pump, a low loss header and parallel buffer
cylinder must not be used.
Control and user interface
• The HPC 400 user interface is permanently integrated
into the heat pump compact unit ACE and cannot be
removed.
• The HPC 400 user interface controls the two heating/
cooling circuits and the DHW heating.
• The HPC 400 user interface has an integrated heat
quantity measurement system.
• The second heat source is switched on and off by the
HPC 400 user interface via a relay (230 VAC, on-site).
The relay is connected to the “On/Off temperature
controller” terminal of the second heat source.
• The HPC 400 user interface and the MM 100 heating
circuit module are connected to one another via a
EMS-2-BUS cable. The MS 100 solar module is
connected via a EMS-2-BUS cable to the SEC 20
installation module.
• A control cable (CAN-BUS between heat pump and
compact unit, cable cross section 0.75 mm2) is
required to establish the connection with the heat
pump (outdoor), in addition to the power supply.
• The HPC 400 user interface and the MM 100 heating
circuit module are connected to one another via a
EMS-2-BUS cable. The MS 100 solar module is
connected via a EMS-2-BUS cable to the SEC 20
installation module.
• Pure heating circuits can be equipped with a remote
control CR 10. Heating/cooling circuits require the
CR 10 H remote control with integrated air humidity
sensor for monitoring the dew point.
6 720 819 789 (2016/04)
Heating mode
• A bypass is required between flow and return to
separate the generator and consumer circuits in order
to guarantee the minimum flow rate at low take-off in
the heating circuit. Alternatively, a buffer cylinder can
also be used.
• The heat for the 2nd heating circuit is adjusted via the
VC1 mixer with reference to the set temperature. A
TC1 flow temperature sensor is required to control
the mixer.
• A MC1 underfloor temperature limiter can be installed
in addition to each heating/cooling circuit to protect
an underfloor heating system.
DHW operation/solar
• The external DHW cylinder is heated by the heat pump
and supplies the connected draw-off points with
domestic hot water.
• If the temperature at the TW1 cylinder temperature
sensor falls below the set value, the compressor
starts. The DHW heating runs until the set stop
temperature is reached.
• During the start phase of DHW heating, the heating
circuit pumps are deactivated until the flow
temperature of the heat pump is higher than the
temperature at the TW1 DHW temperature sensor.
During this time, the flow rate circulates via the
bypass of the safety assembly. The VW1 diverter valve
then switches to DHW operation and the heating
circuit pumps are switched on again. This function
allows the heat pump to operate more efficiently.
• The surface of the solar heat exchanger of the
SWE 400-5 solar measures 1.3 m² and is therefore
suitable for 3-4 flat-plate collectors. The surface of the
solar heat exchanger of the SWE 500-5 solar
measures 1.8 m² and is therefore suitable for 4-5 flat-
plate collectors.
Cooling mode
• Cooling mode in dual-fuel systems is permitted only if
the fan convectors are designed for operation above
the dew point, and also only in combination with
humidity sensors (accessory).
• The heat pump compact unit ACB and all pipes and
connections must be suitably insulated to protect
against condensation (min. 13 mm).
• To be able to start the cooling mode, the CR 10 H
remote control with air humidity sensor is required.
The minimum permissible flow temperature is
calculated based on the room temperature and air
humidity.
• All pipes and connections must be suitably insulated
to prevent condensation in case of active cooling.
• An energised contact for switching between heating

4.3.4 Additional output for blocking times imposed

by the energy supplier
Many energy suppliers (in Germany "EVU") offer
favourable electricity tariffs to promote the installation
of heat pumps. In return for more favourable prices,
energy suppliers impose blocking times for operation of
the heat pumps, e.g. during peak periods in the supply
network.
Operation using single heat source and single energy
source
When operating using a single heat source and a single
energy source, the heat pump must be have a higher
rating in order to be able to cover the required heat
demand throughout the day despite the blocking times.
Theoretically, the factor f for the rating of the heat pump
is calculated as follows:

24 h
f = -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24 h – Blocking time per day in hours

F. 10
However, the additional power required tends to be less
in practise as all rooms are never heated at once and the
lowest outside temperatures are seldom reached.
The following sizing has proven to be suitable in
practise:
Sum of blocking times Additional output
per day [h] as a percentage of the
heat energy demand [%]
2 5
4 10
6 15
Table 7
It is therefore sufficient to choose a heat pump with a
rating between approx. 5 % (2 blocking hours) and 15 %
(6 blocking hours) higher.
Dual-fuel operation
In the case of dual-energy operation, the blocking times
do not generally cause any problems because the
second heat appliance starts up if necessary.

4.4 Design for cooling mode
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT are reversible heat pumps. The
heat pumps can also be used for cooling by reversing the
direction of the heat pump circuit process (reversible
mode of operation). The cooling can be carried out via an
underfloor heating system or a cooling convector.
In order to be able to start the cooling mode, a CR 10 H
remote control with air humidity sensor is required.
NOTICE:
To protect against corrosion:
▶ All pipes and connections must be
appropriately insulated.
An energised contact for switching between heating and
cooling mode is made available via the contact PK2
(terminal 55 and N of the SEC 20installation module of
the HPC 400 user interface).
To control the cooling, a MK2 condensation point sensor
is required at the flow to the heating circuits.
If a buffer cylinder is used, this must be equipped with
suitable diffusion-resistant insulation.
Additionally, systems with buffer cylinder require a VC0
diverter valve in order to bring the heat pump flow up to
the required flow temperature. A installed components,
e.g. pipes, pumps, must be equipped with vapour
diffusion resistant thermal insulation. The indoor units
of the SupraEco A SAO-2 HT ACE/ACM/ACM are
equipped with vapour diffusion resistant thermal
insulation as standard at the factory.
The SupraEco A SAO-2 HTACB indoor units
do not have vapour diffusion resistant
thermally insulation as standard and are
therefore not suitable for cooling below the
dew point.
Cooling via radiators is not permitted.
The cooling mode is controlled by the 1st
heating circuit (T0 flow temperature sensor
and CR 10 H room temperature-dependent
controller with air humidity sensor). Cooling
using the 2nd heating circuit only is
therefore not possible. The Block cooling in
heating circuit 1 function also blocks the
cooling mode in heating circuit 2.
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
Planning and design of heat pumps | 55
Two different operating modes are available for cooling:
• Cooling above the dew point,
e.g. cooling using an underfloor heating system:
For operation above the dew point (can be adjusted
up to +5 °C) e.g for cooling using the underfloor
heating system, condensation point sensors (up to 5)
must be installed in the most critical areas where
condensate can be discharged. These switch the heat
pump off directly when condensate forms in order to
prevent damage to the house. In addition, a buffer
cylinder with vapour diffusion resistant insulation
must be used.
- or -
• Cooling below the dew point,
e.g. cooling with fan convectors:
when operating below the dew point, the entire
heating system and buffer cylinder must be vapour
diffusion resistant.
Accumulating condensate, e.g. in fan convectors,
must be removed.
A CR 10 H room temperature-dependent controller must
be used for cooling:
• in weather-compensated cooling mode with room
influence or room temperature-dependent cooling
mode via an underfloor heating circuit,
• when cooling via a cooling convector.
cooling with an underfloor heating system
An underfloor heating system can be used to heat and
also cool rooms.
In cooling mode, the surface temperature of the
underfloor heating system must not exceed 20 °C. To
ensure that criteria in relation to comfort are complied
with and to avoid the formation of dew water, the
surface temperature limits must be observed.
A condensation point sensor must be installed, e.g. in
the flow of the underfloor heating system, in order to
record the dew point. This can prevent condensate
formation, also during short-term weather fluctuations.
The minimum flow temperature when cooling with an
underfloor heating system and minimum surface
temperature depend on the climatic relationships in the
room in each case (air temperature and relative
humidity). These must be taken into account during the
planning.
When using a CR 10 H room temperature-dependent
controller (with humidity sensor) in the reference room
for the heating circuit to be cooled, no additional
condensation point sensor is required.
To prevent the risk of slipping:
Do not cool underfloor heating circuits in
damp rooms (e.g. bathroom and kitchen).

4.5 Design of heat pump
Heat pumps are normally designed for the following
modes of operation:
• Mode of operation with single heat source:
The heat pump satisfies the entire heat energy
demand for the building and for DHW heating (less
usual for air to water heat pumps).
• Mode of operation with single energy source:
The heat pump satisfies the majority of the heat
energy demand for the building and DHW heating. In
the event of demand peaks the shortfall is covered by
an electric booster heater.
• Duel-fuel mode of operation:
The majority of the heat energy demand for the
building and DHW heating is satisfied by the heat
pump. In the event of demand peaks, the shortfall is
met by an additional heat source (oil, gas, electric
booster heater).

4.5.1 Mode of operation with single energy source

The mode of operation using a single energy source
always takes into account that peak outputs are not
covered exclusively by the heat pump, but also with the
assistance of an immersion heater. We recommend the
heat pump be configured so that the dual-fuel
switchover point at dual-fuel parallel or single energy
source mode of operation is at −5 °C. At this dual-fuel
switchover point, the heat pump achieves a share of
heating energy coverage in accordance with DIN 4701
Part 10 of approx. 98 %. The immersion heater must
then only contribute 2 %. This supports both the heating
and the DHW heating, depending on the requirements.
To do this, the required power in each case must be
contributed in stages (up to 9 kW).
It is important to configure the heat pump so the share
of direct electrical energy supplied is as low as possible.
If the rating of the heat pump is significantly too low, the
share of energy provided by the immersion heater will be
undesirably high and will lead to increased electricity
costs.

temperature of –12 °C, four persons with 50 litres DHW
demand per day and four hours blocking time by energy Q HL = Q H + Q WW
supplier each day?
Using formula 8 the heat energy demand is calculated as
follows: Q HL = 4500 W + 800 W = 5300 W

2 2
Q H = 150 m  30 W/m = 4500 W = 4,5 kW
The additional output required to prepare DHW is 200 W
per person per day. In a four-person household the
additional output is therefore calculated as follows:
To provide the additional output required as a result of
blocking times, the heat energy demand 4.3.4 to be
covered by the heat pump must be increased by roughly
10 % with a blocking time of four hours ( Table 7):
Q WP = 1,1  Q HL

F. 11
Q WW = 4  200 W = 800 W

Q WP = 1,1  5300 W = 5830 W

For temperatures higher than -7 °C, fig. 25
shows the heating output curves for the
heat pumps in operation with 100 % output.
Output curves:
•  section 5.1.6, page 86
The heat energy demand in the temperature range to the
right of the dual-fuel switchover point can be satisfied
exclusively by the heat pump. The additional output
required is represented by the line between the curves
in the temperature range to the left of the dual-fuel
switchover points.
To select a suitable heat pump, the building
characteristic curve [A] is superimposed on the output
curves in figure 25. It can quite simply be a straight line
between the required output determined at the
standard design point (in the example –12 °C, 12 kW)
and an output of 0 kW at 20 °C.
If the intersection of the building characteristic curve
with an output curve is near the envisaged dual-fuel
switchover point, the corresponding heat pump can be
used; the SAO 80-2 heat pump was selected in the
example.
The additional output requirement is the distance
between the output curve and the building
characteristic curve at the standard design point, and is
satisfied by electric heater rods or a floor standing
boiler.

or a second heat source (dual-fuel) is calculated as
follows:
· · ·
Q add = Q req – Q WP(–16 °C) = 12 kW – 7,3 kW = 4,7 kW
F. 13 Output required in addition to heat pump
As a rule, the additional heat output amounts to approx.
50 % to 60 % of the required output. Although the
output share of the electric booster heater is relatively
large, the share of energy provided is only approx. 2 % to
5 % of the annual heating energy.
The determined dual-fuel switchover point is ‒4.5 °C.
4.5.3 Heat Insulation
All heat and cold-carrying lines must be sufficiently
thermally insulated according to the applicable
standards.

4.7.4 Condensate hose
Condensate is produced when carrying out the
necessary de-icing and defrosting of the evaporator. As
up to 10 l/h of condensate may be produced during any
one defrosting operation, the condensate must be safely
discharged into the drainage material or to the
connection to the building drainage system.
• The condensate must be discharged via a suitable
drain pipe with a diameter of at least 50 mm which is
not exposed to frost. If water-permeable layers are
installed, it is normally sufficient to route the pipe to
a depth of 90 cm in a gravel bed.
• Discharge into the sewer system is only permitted via
a siphon which should also be accessible at all times
for maintenance.
• A sufficient gradient must exist in order to do this.
To prevent freezing of the condensate hose, an electric
heating cable can be installed. It is only switched on in
defrosting mode at freezing outside temperatures and
continues heating for up to 30 minutes (adjustable) after
the defrosting operation has finished.
4.7.5 Earthwork
Earthwork is necessary in order to construct the plinth
for the heat pump.
Construction measures are also required to install the
insulated heating pipes and to establish the electrical
connections between the heat pump and the inside of
the building.

Table 13 Power supply to the heat pumps
The cable cross-section depends on the cable length and
is therefore determined by the electrician on-site.
The SupraEco A SAO-2 HT heat pump is an item of
electrical equipment in protection class 1 and is
permanently connected to the power supply. Therefore,
operation via a circuit breaker is not necessary. If a
circuit breaker is required, either due to the technical
connection conditions of the regional utility company or
by the customer, an AC/DC sensitive circuit breaker
must be installed in the outdoor unit to protect the
special electronics.
The distance between the outdoor and
indoor unit must not exceed 30 m.
6 720 819 789 (2016/04)
In addition to the power supply, the heat pump
(outdoor) and compact unit (indoor) are also equipped
with a signal line so the HPC 400 controller can
communicate with the outdoor unit. This signal line or
bus connection line must contain at least 2 × 2 wire
pairs with a cross-section of 0.75 mm2 and must be
screened. The shielding is connected on both sides in
the HPC 400 to the "PE" terminal.
The BUS connecting lead must be installed in a suitable
conduit. The power supply and BUS connection line
must be routed separately.
4.7.7 Air discharge and air intake side
• The air intake and discharge side must be clear.
• The heat pump should not be set up with the air
discharge side (loud side of the appliance) facing
towards the house.
• The air discharged from the heat pump is roughly 5 K
colder in the exit area than the ambient temperature.
This area is therefore susceptible to premature ice
formation.
The air must therefore not be discharged directly at
walls, terraces and pavements.
• Installation of the discharge and intake side below or
directly in the vicinity of bedrooms or other rooms
requiring protection should be avoided.
• If the outlet on the discharge or intake side is in a
corner of the house, between two house walls or in a
recess, sound may be reflected and the sound
pressure level may increase.
• Attachment of air ducts, baffles or sheet metal panels
is not permitted.
4.7.8 Sound
• To avoid noise bridges, the base of the heat pump
must be sealed along its entire perimeter.
• To prevent air short circuits and increased sound
pressure levels due to reflection of noise, do not set
up the heat pump in recesses, corners where two
walls meet or between two walls.
For details on sound and sound propagation  page 71.
4.7.9 Pipe connections to the heating connection
• The heat pump is connected to the heating system
inside the building preferably with insulated district
heating pipes. ( description of accessories).
• To protect against frost, the pipes should be installed
roughly 20 cm below the frost penetration depth.
• The heat pump can be connected from the side or
from below. The connections are located at the rear
of the heat pump and should be covered by a cover
hood (accessory). All lines around the cover should be
professionally thermally insulated to prevent cooling.
The flexible pipes in the INPA installation package
have proven very useful for this purpose.

4.11 Annual refrigerant inspection obligation

Inspection obligation on the cooling circuit for air to
water heat pumps
Regular hydrostatic inspections are specified in
accordance with the F-Gases Regulation (valid from
01.01.2015). These are based on the CO2-equivalent of
the used coolant type.
Calculation of the CO2-equivalent total (example: SAO 60-2)
Refrigerant charge
The Junkers air to water heat pumps are filled with
Refrigerant R-410A.
The global warming potential of 1 kg R-410A
corresponds to 2088 kg CO2-equivalent.
An annual refrigerant inspection obligation exists from
10 tons of CO2-equivalent.

5.7.2 HPC 400

HCP 400 Usage
The HPC 400 user interface is integrated into the ACE/ACB/ACM/ACM-solar heat pump
compact unit makes it easy to operate the heat pump.
HPC 400 communicates with the system components via EMS 2 – BUS.
The HPC 400 permits the following main control types, and can be individually set for
each heating circuit.
• Weather-compensated:
The room temperature is controlled based on the outside temperature.
• Weather-compensated with the influence of the room temperature:
The room temperature is controlled based on the outside temperature and the
measured room temperature. The user interface influences the flow temperature
based on the measured and required room temperature.
Properties and functions
• 2-wire bus technology.
• Intuitive menu guidance with graphic display and plain text display.
• Control of up to 4 heating/cooling circuits (one non-mixed heating/cooling circuit at
the heat pump, 2nd – 4th heating/cooling circuit with heating circuit module
MM 100)
• User-programmable “Favourites” menu. The most important functions to the user
can be saved in the favourites menu.
• Easy-to-use commissioning menu
• Extensive diagnostics menu
• Control for a basic solar system (with MS 100 solar module)
• Control for a complex solar system (with MS 200 solar module)
• Integral SolarInside-ControlUnit for solar module MS 100/200
• Swimming pool control (with MP 100)
• Remote controls CR 10 or CR 10 H can be used
• Plain text display of fault codes
• Operating mode based on a time program or optimised. In optimised operation,
automatic mode (the heating system time program) is not active and the home is
heated constantly to the temperature set for optimised operation.
• Holiday function with date entry
• Thermal disinfection
• Screed drying
• Room temperature hook-up
• Optimised heating curves
• Remote management via the integrated Internet interface with JunkersHome
Operation after a power failure
No settings are lost in the event of a power failure or if the heat source is shut down
for a period of time. When the power supply is restored, the user interface resumes
operation. The settings for the time of day and the date might have to be made again.
No other new settings are required.

5.7.3 PV function
The SupraEco A SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT AC is suitable for
linking to a photovoltaic system. To enable this PV
function, it must be activated beforehand in the HPC 400
user interface and an electrical connection established
between the inverter of the PV system and the heat
pump. The inverter of the PV system is connected to the
heat pump via a potential-free switching output with the
I3 input via terminals 17 and 18. As soon as the PV
system has a certain electrical output (to be defined for
each system), the inverter issues the start enable for the
heat pump. The PV output required to operate the heat
pump must be present for a defined time (e.g. 10
minutes) before a start enable is issued. The start enable
on the other hand should ideally persist for a fixed
period of at least roughly 20 minutes.
A heating system with a buffer cylinder and mixed
heating circuits is recommended for optimum use of the
PV output.
When the PV function is active, PV current can be used
as follows for heating and DHW:
• For heating, the current set room temperature is
increased via an offset (0 … 5 K).
• For DHW, the operating mode switches from “DHW-
reduced” to “DHW”. Therefore, the higher set
temperature, which is set in “DHW” mode, applies.
When the PV function is activated, the DHW cylinder is
first heated to the set temperature for“DHW” mode. As
soon as this temperature is reached, the system
switches to the heating mode with the higher set room
temperature. Once the higher set room temperature is
reached, the heat pump switches off, even if an enable
still exists for the inverter. The integral electric booster
heater is activated when PV mode is deactivated, e.g. if
the heat pump output is insufficient at very low outside
temperatures. The energy supplier blocking signal has
the highest priority and stops the compressor and/or
electric booster heater immediately, even if a start
enable exists for the inverter.
6 720 819 789 (2016/04)
5.7.4 Smart grid function
The smart grid function can be used in a similar manner
to the PV function. It makes sense for the energy
provider to be able to switch electrical loads on and off
in the intelligent electricity network (smart grid). This
limits network loads and fluctuations on the one hand
and gives the end customer benefits on the other due to
the more favourable electricity tariffs. The heat pump
can therefore be switched off during peak periods (e.g.
midday) and switched back on during the off-peak
periods (e.g. late evening). To use the smart grid
function, a dual electrical connection must be
established between the switchgear unit of the energy
supplier in the meter cabinet and the I1 and I4 inputs.
The energy supplier switching unit issues the start
enable signal for the heat pump, or switches the
compressor and/or the electric booster heater off, via
these two control cables. The smart grid function is
activated in the HPC 400 user interface by configuring
the I1 input for the energy supplier shutdown (energy
supplier blocking time 1/2/3). The external input I4 is
then automatically configured for using the smart grid
function.
When the active smart grid function is active, favourable
tariffs PV current can be used as follows for heating and
DHW:
• For heating, the current set room temperature is
increased via an offset (0 … 5 K).
• For DHW, the operating mode switches from “DHW-
reduced” to “DHW”. Therefore, the higher set
temperature, which is set in “DHW” mode, applies.
When the smart grid function is activated, the DHW
cylinder is first heated to the set temperature for“DHW”
mode. As soon as this temperature is reached, the
system switches to the heating mode with the higher set
room temperature.
Once the higher set room temperature is reached, the
heat pump shuts off, even if a more favourable tariff is
still offered. The energy supplier blocking signal has the
highest priority and stops the compressor and/or
electric booster heater immediately, a more favourable
tariff is offered.

5.7.5 App function

The SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT is equipped with an integral
IP interface as standard. This allows the heating system
to be operated intuitively in a local WLAN network and
via the internet using the the EasyControl app. The
system user can also operate and monitor the system
remotely when out and about from mobile end devices
(with Android & iOS) via the JunkersHome app. Junkers
multiHome is available for heating contractors.
The following functions are available to the system user
in the JunkersHome app:
• Checking and changing system parameters (e.g.
operating mode changeover, set temperatures for day
and night, timers for all heating circuits)
• Display of fault codes and service messages
The JunkersHome app is available free of charge from
the Apple app store and Google Play.

Positioning the remote control
With room temperature-dependent control, the heating
system or the heating circuit is regulated subject to the
temperature in a reference room.
▶ Installing the remote control for the room
temperature-dependent control in the reference room
( fig. 121).
The reference room must be as representative as
possible of the entire home. Heat sources (e.g. solar
exposure or an open fireplace) affect the control
functions. This means it may become too cold in rooms
without heat sources.
Position of the room temperature sensor
The room temperature sensor is integrated in the casing
of the CR 10/CR 10 H remote control. The remote
6 720 645 407-03.1O
control must be installed in the reference room in such
a way that negative influences are avoided: Fig. 121 Position of the CR 10/CR 10 H remote control in

8 Buffer cylinder
Buffer cylinders may only be filled with heating water
and operated in sealed heating systems. Any other use is
considered inappropriate. Junkers does not accept any
liability for damage resulting from improper use.
Under certain conditions, a bypass can be installed
instead of a buffer cylinder ( chapter 9).
We recommend that all 0.5...0.7 metre inflowing
connections in the buffer upstream of the connectors
are widened to the internal diameter of the connector.
This prevents swirling in the buffer cylinder.

Buffer cylinders must not be used in

systems with permeable pipework (e.g. in
old underfloor heating systems). This
situation requires system separation with a
plate heat exchanger. Note for sizing:
approx. 10 l/kW

When using a buffer cylinder in combination

with a DHW heating, an additional diverter
valve (VC0) must be provided ( chapter 3
system examples with buffer cylinder).

10.4 Required trades

A number of different trades are required to carry out
the installation of a heating system with heat pumps:
• Sizing and setup of heat pump and heating system by
the installer.
• Connection to the power grid by the electrician.
Installer
The installer acts as the general contractor to the client.
He coordinates the various trades when preparing the
heating system, assigns the work and approves the work
carried out by the trades. This means that the customer
only has one contact partner for all requests in relation
to the heating system.
The installer designs the heating system, sizes the heat
pump, heat emitters, distributors, pumps and pipework,
and installs and tests it. He brings the system into
operation and gives the customer instruction on the
functions. He also takes care of the registration of the
heat pump with the energy supplier in consultation with
the client and hands over relevant information to the
other trades.
Electrician
The electrician installs the required load and control
cables, sets up the meter mounting boards for
measurement and switching equipment, takes care of
the meter registration, establishes the electrical
connection of the entire system and hands over the data
for the electricity supplier blocking times to the installer.

Glossary
Defrost management
Removes frost and ice from evaporators in air to water
heat pumps by supplying them with heat. This is carried
out automatically via the control.
Defrosting
If the outside temperature drops below around 5 °C, the
water contained in the air starts to settle as ice on the
evaporator in the air to water heat pump. Thus, it is
possible to make use of the latent heat stored in the
water. Air to water heat pumps which also operate at
temperatures below approx. +10 °C require a defrosting
device. Junkers heat pumps have a defrost management
function.
Starting current
The peak current required when the appliance starts up.
The starting current does not need to be considered by
the existing inverter activation.
Performance factor
The performance factor indicates the ratio of heat
produced to the amount of electrical energy supplied. If
the performance factor is considered over the period of
a year, this is referred to as a seasonal performance
factor (JAZ). The performance factor and the output of a
heat pump depend on the temperature differential
between heat use and heat source. The higher the
temperature of the heat source and the lower the flow
temperature, the higher the performance factor and,
therefore, the heat output. The higher the performance
factor, the lower the primary energy usage.
Baking out the screed
One of the many benefits of the Junkers HMC 300 heat
pump manager is a screed bake out program with
adjustable times and temperatures.
Outdoor installation
Installing air to water heat pumps outdoors has the
advantage of making more room inside the house. Air
ducts and large openings in the walls are not required
and, because the air can flow freely, there is hardly any
chance of supply air mixing with extract air. The
appliances are also more easily accessible.
External wall sensor
This is connected to the heat pump controller and is
used for weather-compensated heating mode.
Automatic rotational direction detection
The HMC 300 heat pump manager by Junkers is
equipped with automatic rotational direction detection
for the compressor.
A/V ratio
This is the ratio of the total outer surface of a
building(corresponds to its enveloping surface) to the
volume that is heated. This measurement is important
when calculating the energy demand of the building. The
smaller the A/V ratio (compact building structure), the
lower the energy demand for the same volume.
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
Glossary | 177
Operating voltage
The voltage required to operate an appliance, given in
volts.
Dual-fuel switchover point/Dual-fuel switchover point
Outside temperature beyond which the second heat
source, e.g. immersion heater or old boiler, is switched
on in order to support the heat pump during operation
with a single energy source or in dual-fuel mode.
COP (Coefficient of Performance)
See coefficient of performance
D-A-CH quality seal
The international heat pump quality seal is awarded only
to manufacturers who are members of the German
Federal Heat Pump Association (BWP) and the heat
pump associations in Austria and Switzerland. The
appliances must satisfy very high quality standards in
order to receive the quality seal. The testing is carried
out by impartial test centres. Only heat pumps that are
manufactured in series are tested. The manufacturer
must reapply for the quality seal after three years.
Sizing
Exact sizing is especially important in the case of heat
pump systems. If the appliance is too large, the system
costs are often disproportionately high. Energy-efficient
operation of the heat pump system and rational use of
energy can only be ensured if it is correctly sized and its
mode of operation is in harmony with the demand.
Electrical connection
In Germany, the power consumption of a heat pump
system is invoiced according to the heat pump tariff for
supply of energy from the low-voltage network. The
basis for this is the Federal Tariff Order On Electricity
(BTOElt). The electrical connection must be registered
with the relevant energy supplier. Connection work may
only be carried out by an authorised heating contractor.
VDE 0100 must be strictly observed, in addition to the
regulations of the relevant energy supplier. Heat pumps
with a connected load (rated output) of more than
1.4 kW require a three-phase AC connection. The
appliance must be permanently connected. The heat
pump requires a separate meter. The number of
switching operations must be limited to a maximum of
three an hour (requirement of TAB (Office of Technology
Assessment at the German Bundestag)). The blocking
times of the energy supplier must be taken into account
when sizing the heat pump.
Electric booster heater
In addition to the heat pump, a second heat source
exists which supports the heating of the building when
the outside temperatures fall below a certain level. This
can be an immersion heater or, where the heating
system has been refurbished, the old boiler.
6 720 819 789 (2016/04)
OBJ_DOKU-6720819789-01.fm Page 178 Wednesday, April 20, 2016 2:46 PM
178 | Glossary
Immersion heater
The SAO ...-2/SAO ...-2 HT E version comes with the
immersion heater already installed in the indoor unit of
the heat pump. During operation with a single energy
source, the heater rod assists the heat pump on the few
exceptionally cold days of the year. The heat pump
controls ensure that the immersion heater is not in
operation for any longer than is necessary. The purpose
of the immersion heater which is used in conjunction
with DHW heating is to reheat the water for hygiene
reasons at specific intervals to above 60 °C.
Expansion valve
Component of the heat pump between the condenser
and the evaporator which reduces the condensing
pressure to the evaporating pressure that corresponds
to the evaporating temperature. The expansion valve
also controls the amount of refrigerant injected,
depending on the load on the evaporator.
Panel heating
This refers to pipework laid under the screed
(underfloor heating) or wall plaster (wall panel heating),
through which the heating water heated by the heat
appliance flows.
Underfloor heating system
DHW underfloor heating systems are the ideal heat
distribution systems for heat pump systems, because
they are operated at low, energy-saving temperatures.
The whole floor serves as a large heating surface. This
means that these systems can manage with lower
heating water temperatures (around 30 °C). As the heat
is distributed evenly from the floor across the whole
room, a room heated to 20 °C feels as warm as a room
heated to 22 °C using a conventional system.
Building heat load
This refers to the maximum heat load of a building. It can
be calculated according to DIN-EN 12831. The standard
heat load is calculated from the transmission heat
demand (heat loss via the enveloping surfaces) and the
ventilation heat demand for heating up the entering
outdoor air. This value is used to size the heating system
and to calculate the annual energy demand.
Base-load output
This is the proportion of the energy output demand
which is determined by considering daytime and
seasonal changes with only slight fluctuations.
Heating circuit
The components of a heating system (radiator, mixing
valve, flow and return) which are hydraulically
connected to one another and are responsible for
distributing heat.
Heating output
The heat output of a heat pump depends on the inlet
temperature of the heat source (brine/water/air) and
the flow temperature in the heat distribution system. It
describes the available heat output produced by the
heat pump.
Heating system
In new buildings, low temperature systems can be used
as heat distribution systems. Ceiling heating systems,
6 720 819 789 (2016/04)
and wall and underfloor heating systems in particular,
can operate well with low flow and return temperatures.
They are especially well-suited to heat pump systems,
which have a maximum flow temperature of 55 °C.
Heating power
Low cost special tariffs (heating power) are available
from many energy suppliers for electric heat pump
heating systems.
Heat load
This is the heat demand required in addition to the heat
gains (solar and internal heat gains) so that a building
can be kept at a desired room temperature.
HE pumps
HE pumps can be connected without external relays to
the HMC 300 heat pump manager.
Maximum load at relay output of the pump PC1:
2 A, cos  > 0.4. An intermediate relay must be installed
with higher loads.
Seasonal performance factor
The seasonal performance factor (JAZ) of the heat pump
states the ratio of the heating energy produced to the
electrical energy supplied over the annual period. The
seasonal performance factor relates to a specific
system, taking into account the size of the heating
system (temperature level and differential) and must not
be confused with the coefficient of performance. An
average temperature increase of one degree
downgrades the seasonal performance factor by 2 to
2,5 %. It also increases the energy consumption by 2 to
2,5 %.
Seasonal expenditure factor
This is the inverse of the seasonal performance factor.
Cooling capacity
This describes the heat flow which is removed by the
evaporator in a heat pump.
Compressor
Component of the heat pump used to mechanically
convey and compress gases. Compression significantly
increases the pressure and temperature of the working
fluid and refrigerant. The compressor of the SAO ...-2/
SAO ...-2 HT is modulating and therefore adapts to the
heat energy demand of the house.
Condensation temperature
Temperature at which the refrigerant condenses from a
gaseous state to a liquid state
Condensate pan
This collects the water that condenses in the evaporator.
Power consumption
This refers to the amount of electrical energy consumed
by the appliance. It is measured in kilowatts.
COP (coefficient of performance)
The coefficient of performance is an instantaneous
value. It is measured under standardised laboratory
conditions according to European standard EN 14511.
The coefficient of performance is a test-facility value
measured without auxiliary drives. The COP is obtained
by dividing the output by the power drawn by the
SupraEco A SAO-2 HT
OBJ_DOKU-6720819789-01.fm Page 179 Wednesday, April 20, 2016 2:46 PM
compressor. The coefficient of performance is always >
1, because the output is always greater than the power
drawn by the compressor. A coefficient of performance
of 4 means that 4 times the amount of electrical output
used is produced as available heat output.
Manometer
It shows the positive pressure in bar.
Low temperature systems
Low temperature systems, especially underfloor, wall
and ceiling heating systems are particularly well-suited
to operation with a heat pump system.
Efficiency
This is the quotient of the work/heat used and the work/
heat expended for this purpose.
Compression
Used in conjunction with radial fans to indicate the “Air
pressure (Pa)”.
Buffer cylinder
Cylinder for buffering of heating water in order to
guarantee the minimum operating time of the
compressor. A minimum operating time of 10 minutes
must be ensured for air to water heat pumps in de-icing
mode. Buffer cylinders increase the average operating
times of heat pumps and reduce cycling (frequent
switching off and on). Immersion heaters are sometimes
used in the buffer cylinder with systems operating with
a single energy source.
The buffer cylinder can be omitted when using SAO ...-2/
SAO ...-2 HT heat pumps. A bypass between the flow and
return is however required in this case. Certain
conditions must be met depending on the heating
distribution system. Refer to the installation instructions
for more information.
Radial fan
This delivers the air at an angle of 90 ° to the drive shaft
of the motor.
Return temperature
Temperature of the heating water which flows back from
the radiators to the heat pump.
Scroll compressor
Scroll compressors are quiet and reliable and most
commonly used in small and medium-sized systems. The
"scroll" of this compressor is a worm gear which
compresses gases, e.g. refrigerant or air. The scroll
compressor consists of two intermeshing helical gears.
One circular helical gear moves in a stationary spiral. The
helical gears are in contact during this movement. This
produces chambers of ever-decreasing size within the
windings. The refrigerant to be compressed enters these
chambers and travels to the centre. It then exits from
here out the sides.
Sound insulation
This encompasses all measures which help to reduce the
sound pressure level of the heat pump, e.g. sound-
insulating casing lining, encapsulation of the
compressors, etc. Junkers heat pumps use specially
developed sound insulation and are therefore among the
quietest appliances on the market.

Sound pressure level
Measured in the unit dB(A). Physical measured quantity
of volume which depends on the distance from the
source of the sound.
Sound power level
This physical measured quantity of volume is measured
in the unit dB(A), and depends on the distance from the
source of the sound.
Secondary circuit
Refers to the water circuit between the buffer cylinder
and consumer.
Serial interface
Separate connection to the EDP (e.g. for remote control,
central control and instrumentation (ZLT))
Safety valves
Safety valves protect pressure systems such as
compressors, pressure vessels, pipework etc. from
being destroyed by impermissibly high pressure levels.
Blocking times
The energy supplier is authorised in accordance with the
Federal Tariff Order On Electricity (BTOElt) to interrupt
the operation of the heat pump continuously for up to 2
hours, but for now longer than 6 hours in total within any
24-hour period. The operating time between two
interruptions must not be less than the preceding
downtime period in each case. The blocking times must
be taken into account when sizing the heat pumps.
Dew point
Temperature at 100 % air humidity. If the dew point is
undercut, water vapour precipitates as defrost water
(condensate) in or on components.
Temperature difference
Temperature differential between the inlet and outlet
temperature of a heat transfer medium on the heat
pump, i.e. the difference between the flow and return
temperatures.
Thermostatic valve
By restricting the heating water flow to a greater or
lesser extent, the thermostatic valve adjusts the heat
transfer of a radiator according to the heat demand of
the room in question. Deviations from the desired room
temperature can be caused by heat gains from external
sources such as lighting or solar exposure. If the room
temperature increases beyond the desired value due to
solar exposure, the thermostatic valve will automatically
reduce the flow rate. On the other hand, if the
temperature falls below the desired value, e.g. after
ventilation, the valve will open automatically. This means
that more heating water can flow through the radiator
and the room temperature will return to the desired
value.
Transmission heat losses
Heat losses caused by the dispersal of heat from heated
rooms to the outside environment through walls,
window, etc.
Reversing valve
In order to defrost the evaporator in the heat pump, the
refrigerant flow direction is changed by the reversing

valve. This means that the evaporator becomes the
condenser during the defrosting process.
Evaporating temperature
This is the temperature of the refrigerant when it enters
the evaporator.
Evaporator
Heat exchanger in a heat pump, in which heat is
extracted from the heat source (air, earth, groundwater)
by evaporating a working fluid at a low temperature and
pressure.
Heat source system
A heat source system is a mechanism which extracts
heat from a heat source (e.g. geothermal probes) and
when transporting a heat transfer medium between the
heat source and the cold side of the heat pump,
including all auxiliary equipment. In the case of air to
water heat pumps, the complete heat source system is
integrated in the appliance. In a single-family home, for
example, the system might consist of the pipework used
to distribute heat, the convectors or the underfloor
heating system.
