- Remeha Selecta combi - boiler for central heating and the production of instantane- ous domestic hot water. - Remeha Selecta system - boiler for central heating and hot water production via a calorifier. The Remeha Selecta series incorporates a pre-mix burner, frost protection, self diag- nostic servicing LED, and lap-top/PDA connection forsetting and or interrogating the controller.
2.2 Working principle The Remeha Selecta’s casing serves as a sealed air box, with air drawn in by the fan. On the outlet side of the fan is a venturi, into which a measured quantity of gas is injected based on the volume of air available. The fan speed control is dependent on the settings of the heat requirement and the prevailing temperatures (measured by the temperature sensors).
