TEMPERATURE PRoBE
15.1 function
The Temperature probe has the function of converting the tem-
perature of the water in the hydraulic circuit where it is installed
into an electrical signal (resistance).
The relation between temperature and electrical resistance is
stated in Figure 15.1.

figure 15.1
On the boiler there are two Temperature probes. One on the out-
put of the primary heat exchanger (c.h. Temperature probe) A in
Figure 15.2 and Figure 15.3; one on the output of the d.h.w. heat
exchanger (d.h.w. Temperature probe) B in Figure 15.2.

15.2 Checks
Temperature-resistance relationship
Warning: isolate the boiler from the mains electrici-
ty supply before removing any covering or compo-
nent.
Disconnect the cable from the Temperature probe.
Measure the temperature of the pipe near the Temperature probe
and check the electrical resistance according to the graph in Fig-
ure 15.1.
15.3 Removal of the c.h. Temperature probe
Warning: isolate the boiler from the mains electrici-
ty supply before removing any covering or compo-
nent.
1 Remove all the case panels and the sealed chamber lid.
2 Empty the primary circuit of the boiler.
3 Remove the electric connector C and unscrew the c.h. tem-
perature probe A - Figure 15.3.
4 Reassemble the c.h. temperature probe carrying out the re-
moval operations in reverse order.

15.4 Removal of the d.h.w. Temperature probe
Warning: isolate the boiler from the mains electrici-
ty supply before removing any covering or compo-
nent.
1 Remove the front panel of the case.
2 Empty the d.h.w circuit of the boiler.
3 Remove the electric connector D and unscrew the d.h.w.
temperature probe B - Figure 15.3.
4 Reassemble the d.h.w. temperature probe carrying out the
removal operations in reverse order.
Warning: to lubricate the o-ring gaskets exclusively
use a silicone base grease compatible to be in con-
tact with foods and approved by the local water Au-
thorities.
