INSTALLATION OF THE MAX’O GAZ MAX’O GAZ requires the installation of gas ( or LPG), water and electricity supplies which must be provided by currently qualified installers. Relevant CE and BS requirements and local regulation must be observed. (Atlantic 2000 welcomes any queries at any time on 0161-621-5960) 1) LOCATION MAX’O GAZ must be located on a hard standing and preferably a concrete base extending at least 50mm beyond the unit on all sides...

3) DOMESTIC HOT WATER FLOW CONNECTION Hot water supply should be connected to MAX’O GAZ in approved materials. On the MAX’O GAZ hot water outlet of a mains cold water s ystem, the combined temperature/pressure relief valve may be fitted. Then a full-bore tee should be installed to take the high capacity automatic air eliminator with isolating ball valve.

Additional condensing will occur in the flue exhaust system and this may be separately drained through its own trap to the same gulley or drain. Normally, 20 mm or 32mm PVC tube will carry the condensate flow. IMPORTANT Never fire the MAX’O GAZ burner without water in the water store. Never fire the MAX’O GAZ without open cold and hot water connections.
THE GAS PIPEWORK CONNECTIONS The size of the gas pipework to the boilers should be chosen to ensure the necessary minimum pressure for the nominal required flow rate at the upstream entry point of the gas train. The diameter of the pipe lines will be calculated as a function of the allowed pressure drop, the length of the pipework distribution & the number of fittings in the distribution.

CHECKINGS BEFORE STARTING THE WATER HEATER Check that: the MAX’O GAZ is supplied with the appropriate gas, with which it is set to fire the gas pressure corresponds to the setting marked on the heater the water heater is full of water the safety valve is correctly installed an automatic air vent is installed on the highest point nothing blocks the evacuation of the combustion gases...
STARTING THE WATER HEATER Procedure: Check that the switch inside the water heater is on “0-OFF” (Pack Control switched off) Close the water heater drain valve Open the cold water supply valve Open the hot water outlet valve Open the nearest hot outlet water As soon as there is no air in the water system, close the outlet (5) The water heater is under the correct system pressure Purge the gas line...

During the first starting, the burner may switch to safety position because of any air remaining in the line. 15) While the burner is working, check the Pack Control temperature a. If the temperature is different than the one required, adjust it 16) During the first fire, check that all the elements of control and safety are working correctly 17) Do a combustion analysis and if needed, adjust the burner setting...
THE COMMISSIONING OF THE MAX’O GAZ All Atlantic boilers and water heaters are thoroughly tested for mechanical, electrical and combustion performance at the factory. The combustion performance tests are based on gas equivalent to the North Sea natural gas provided by British Gas and at low pressures normally supplied.
