    2 INSTALLER INSTRUCTIONS 2.1 Boiler installation 2.1.1 General rules The boiler installation is intended to be fixed and it must be carried out by professionally qualified staff, according to the actual national and local law, following all the instructions and rules contained in this manual. The boiler shall be installed in a room free of corrosive steam.
  • Page 15: Installation

    Clearances shall provide provision for service access and protection from combustible surfaces. Minimum clearances from combustible surfaces shall be 50mm at sides, 300mm from top and 300mm from bottom. ENSURE THAT THE AIR ENTRY IS NOT OBSTRUCTED BY ADJACENT CABINETS OR OTHER STRUCTURES.

    The 5.32 N-N3V boiler has been designed to operate on Natural Gas and Propane Gas. The 5.24 N-N3V boiler has been designed to operate on Natural Gas. Before performing the gas connection, all the ducts of the fuel system are to be cleaned inside in order to remove possible residual substances which could cause malfunctioning.
  • Page 17 Professionally qualified personnel shall verify that the electric supply system is adequate to the apparatus maximum power (140 W please see the rating plate), and that the wiring section is suitable to the power absorption of the machine. The use of electric adapters, extension cords or sockets are not recommended, but it is convenient to provide the system with a double-pole switch having at least 3 mm spaced electric.

    no control on the boiler functions which depend on the control panel commands. If the boiler has to operate at low temperatures and has remote control, simply select the required temperature directly on the remote control unit. When operating with the remote control without other thermostats (single zone system) jumpering must not be used on the room thermostat wires.

    2.17 Safety valve Hot Water Storage tank (where used) The safety valve with is calibrated at 8 bar pressure. During the heating of the contents a dribble from unloading under certain conditions is predictable and normal. During installation direct the unloading valve to drainage duct. If dribble continue also with hot tank and boiler stop check the supply pressure :if this exceeds 5 bar apply a pressure reducer and check the safety valve to have an efficient drainage.

    *** In positioning the terminals, distances must be no less than 500 mm when they are near to materials sensible towards the action of combustible products (i.e.: plastic eaves and gutters, wooden overhangs, etc.) unless suitable protective measures are taken. The boiler is homologated with chimney configuration type: B23P .

    cutting an extension of 1 m at the required dimension. The air/flue duct must be installed on a perfectly horizontal position since it already has a minimum standard slant which prevents the condensate from dropping and freezing on the ground. The duct will be fixed following the relevant figures.
