Commissioning; Commission The Systems; Commission The Boiler; Flush The System - Potterton Suprima 30 HE Installation & Service Instructions Manual

6. Commissioning

6.1 Commission the Water, Electrical and Gas
Systems
Water
The system should be cold flushed. After re-filling,
all air must be vented from the system before the
boiler is commissioned.
On Sealed Systems, manually test the safety valve
and fill until the pressure gauge registers 1.5 bar.
Electrical
Ensure that the preliminary electrical safety checks
detailed on Page 18 have been carried out.
Gas
The whole of the gas installation including the
meter must be checked for soundness and purged
according to in GB BS 6891 and in IE I.S. 813
"Domestic Gas Installations".

Ensure the outer case is correctly fitted.
1. Turn the temperature control knob to ( ) position.
2. Ensure that the main electricity supply is 'On', the
'Mains On' (Green) light will flash.
3. Turn the boiler gas service cock to the 'On' position
and ensure that the main gas supply is turned 'On'.
4. Check that the programmer and any other external
controls, if fitted, are in an 'On' position and calling
for heat.
5. Turn the temperature control knob to its maximum

On' (Green) light will be on and flames will be visible
through the sight glass.
7. With the burner running, check the boiler for gas
soundness using leak detection fluid.
8. Check that the gas supply pressure, burner
pressure and gas rate are correct. See data label or
refer to Page 4.
If adjustment of the burner pressure is required
follow Section 9.4.
9. Check that the burner flames are blue and stable.

10.Turn the temperature control knob to ( ) position
and check that the burner shuts down.
11. Remove the pressure gauge, re-fit the screws and

12. Re-fit the controls cover assembly and secure with
the screws previously removed.

6.3 Flush the system

1. Drain the system whilst still hot.
2. Re-fill, vent the system, make a final check for
water soundness and add a suitable inhibitor.
3. Complete any labels supplied with the inhibitor and
attach to the boiler for future reference.
4. Set the bypass flow rate.
5. On sealed systems fill until the pressure gauge
registers 1.5 bar. Set the pressure gauge pointer to
the system design pressure.
If the boiler fails to light
After five attempts (possibly due to air in the gas
supply) it will lockout and the 'Lockout' (Red) light will
be on.
To reset - Turn the temperature control knob to ( )
position. Wait until the 'Lockout' (Red) light switches
off. Turn the temperature control knob back to the
required setting. The boiler should reset and return to
normal operation.
If the boiler fails to operate
