PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGER PRIMARY HEAT EXCHANGER 5 .1 Function The primary heat exchanger A in Figure 5.1 has the function of transferring heat produced from combustion of the gas to the water circulating in it. Figure 5 .1 The hydraulic circuit is composed of 8 elliptical pipes connected in parallel (Figure 5.2).
CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGER CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGER 6 .1 Function The return water flows through the condensing heat exchanger A in Figure 6.1 and Figure 6.2. By reducing the combustion products temperature, the latent heat of the vapour is transferred to the water circuit, allowing an extra gain of useful heat. The condensed vapour is then drained through the condensate trap B and the draining pipe C.
CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGER 6 .3 Cleaning 1 Using pliers, remove the spring L moving it to wards right and disconnect the rubber pipe M (Figure 6.3). 2 Unscrewing the screws N (Figure 6.3). 3 Remove the condensing heat exchange lid O (Figure 6.3) moving towards the front of the boiler.
D.H.W. HEAT EXCHANGER D .H .W . HEAT EXCHANGER 7 .1 Function The d.h.w heat exchanger A in Figure 7.1 and Fig. 4 allows the instantaneous transfer of heat from the primary hydraulic circuit to the water destined for d.h.w use. Figure 7 .3 6 Completely unscrew the two Allen key screws G (Figure 7.4) which hold the exchanger to the plastic groups.

With the burner firing, interrupt the gas supply. The Electronic control/ignition p.c.b. must carry out three complete ignition cy- cles and then, after about 3 minutes, goes to lock-out state. By turning the boiler on and off by means of the function switch the device must not unlock and the burner must not turn on.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL/IGNITION P.C.B. Important When re-assembling the Electronic control/ignition p.c.b.: 7 Fit the p.c.b. into the control panel by first inserting the front lower edge under the control knob shafts. Lower the rear edge and ensure that no wiring is trapped beneath. 8 Insert the spindles in the control panel knobs until the notch A (Figure 10.24) reaches the potentiometer edge.
