TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The Lochinvar SST direct storage vessel has been designed to operate trouble free for many years. These instructions should be followed closely to obtain the maximum usage and efficiency of the equipment. PLEASE read the instructions fully before installing or using the appliance.
Ideally, individual valves should be fitted to each unit to enable isolation from the system. 6.2 OPEN VENTED SYSTEM The Lochinvar SST can be used in an open vented arrangement provided that a vent pipe in accordance with CP342 or BS6700 is fitted. The minimum static head requirement for an open vented system will be detailed in the ICM Instructions of the primary heat source.
It is the law that all unvented hot water systems be installed by an approved installer. If the Lochinvar SST is to be used in an unvented arrangement, the system should follow the guidance given in BS6700 and must comply with The Building Regulations: Part G3 in England and Wales, P5 in Northern Ireland and P3 in Scotland.
6.3.3 TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE A temperature and pressure relief valve is provided in the unvented water system kit. This valve has a lift pressure of 7 bar and a lift temperature of 90°C. The valve must be fitted to the relief valve tapping. The storage vessel relief valve connection should not be used for any other purpose.
