Did you see in the specs that the heat exchanger should be mounted
vertically when used for phase change. Having it horizontal should reduce
effectiveness and err in Rossi's favour
Yes. It must be vertical.
But I think the error should be in Rossi's disfavour, if there was a lot
of steam.
The heat exchanger would fill up with condensate and the active
crossectional area will be reduced.
If there was not much steam, it doesnt matter.

Condensers
The refrigerant (gas) should be
connected to the upper left connection,
F1, and the condensate to
the lower left connection, F3. The
water/brine circuit inlet should be
connected to the lower right connection,
F4, and the outlet to the
upper right connection, F2.

The brass manifold is also from SWEP.
