Generally, in this type of heat pump type water heater, in order to prevent freezing of the circulation path through which water circulates in the hot water storage tank, a temperature sensing element is installed in the circulation path, and when this temperature sensing element detects the anti-freezing temperature, During the day, a circulation pump connected to a power source is driven. However, when doing this, especially in cold regions, the water in the hot water storage tank is often drained in anticipation of freezing, and the water in the hot water storage tank is also drained when it is not used for a long time in the winter. In this case, freezing can be prevented by draining the water, but the power supply during the day,
In other words, it is easy to cause discharge without turning off the 100V power supply, so if the temperature near the thermosensor reaches the anti-freezing temperature even though there is no water in the hot water storage tank, the temperature must be The temperature sensor detects this and drives the circulation pump to rotate, causing the circulation pump to spin idly, causing damage to the casing and impeller.

The operation will be explained using the configuration shown in FIG. 1 and the circuit configuration shown in FIG. 2. When the 200V power supply is energized,
The relay excitation coil RY 3 28 is energized, and at the same time, the heat pump unit 11 is energized. In this case, the relay excitation coil RY 3 28 is energized to close the relay contact 29, and therefore the circulation pump 5 is also energized. As the circulation pump 5 operates, water in the hot water storage tank 1 passes through the circulation path 4 from the outlet 2 and reaches the heat exchanger 6.
The heat generated by the heat pump unit 11 is removed from the hot water, and this hot water is passed through the hot water temperature adjustment valve 7.
The hot water is returned to the hot water storage tank 1 through the inlet 3 of the hot water storage tank 1, and is sequentially stored from the upper part of the hot water storage tank 1. In this case, the temperature of the hot water entering the hot water storage tank 1 from the inlet 3 of the hot water storage tank 1 is determined by the hot water temperature adjustment valve 7.
The flow rate is adjusted with
I'm trying to make it flow inside. Further, at this time, a 100V power supply is applied between the anticorrosion electrode 17 and the hot water storage tank 1 to perform electrolytic protection.

Such a heat pump unit 11 has little effect even if it is operated at low outside temperatures where freezing is likely to occur, so the outside temperature is detected by the temperature detection section.
The 200V power is turned off, and the relay excitation coil RY 3 28 stops operating, and the relay contact 29 of the circulation pump 5 circuit opens. on the other hand,
Under such low outside temperature conditions, the antifreeze detection section 24, which will be explained next, begins to operate. That is, when the temperature of the circulation path 4 in the vicinity where the thermistor 25 is attached reaches 2°C, the freeze detection thermistor 25 emits a signal to the freeze prevention detection unit, excites the relay excitation coil RY 2 26, and closes the relay contact. 27
When the temperature reaches 4°C, the relay excitation coil RY 2 26 is de-energized and the relay contact 27 is opened. When water is present, the cathodic protection function is working normally, and as a result, the relay excitation coil RY 1 22 is energized and its relay contact 23 is closed, so the freeze detection function always works. become. When the freeze detection thermistor 25 detects 2°C, the relay excitation coil
Since the RY 2 26 is excited and closes its relay contact 27, the circulation pump 5 is energized to prevent freezing. This operation is performed regardless of whether the 200V power supply is on or off.

On the other hand, if there is no water in the hot water storage tank 1, no current flows through the cathodic protection circuit, so the relay excitation coil RY 1 22 is not energized, and as a result, the relay connected in series to the antifreeze detection unit 24 Since the contact point 23 is open, the antifreeze detection unit 24 does not operate, and therefore, even if the freeze detection thermistor 25 detects 2°C and issues a signal due to fluctuations in the outside air, the circulation pump 5 will not operate. Since no electricity is applied, there is no problem of the circulation pump 5 being operated without water in the hot water storage tank 1 and damaging the casing or impeller.

As described above, according to the present invention, a relay contact that opens and closes according to the operation of a relay excitation coil attached to the cathodic protection and dry-burn detection section is connected in series to the antifreeze detection section, and the relay contact that is attached to the antifreeze detection section is connected in series to the antifreeze detection section. By connecting the relay contacts in series with the circulation pump, which open and close according to the operation of the relay excitation coil, the antifreeze detection unit does not operate when there is no water in the hot water storage tank. This eliminates the problem of the circulation pump being operated without water in the hot water storage tank and damaging the casing or impeller, and also prevents excessive power consumption.
