Gas Connection; Electrical Connections - Ferroli ECONCEPT 35 C Instructions For Use, Installation And Maintenance

Antifreeze system, antifreeze fluids, additives and inhibitors
The boiler is equipped with an antifreeze system that turns on the boiler in heating mode when the system delivery water
temperature falls under 6°C. The device will not come on if the electricity and/or gas supply to the unit are cut off. If it
becomes necessary, it is permissible to use antifreeze fluid, additives and inhibitors only if the manufacturer of these
fluids or additives guarantees they are suitable for this use and cause no damage to the heat exchanger or other com-
ponents and/or materials of the boiler unit and system. It is prohibited to use generic antifreeze fluid, additives or inhib-
itors that are not expressly suited for use in heating systems and compatible with the materials of the boiler unit and
system.

2.4 Gas connection

B
Before making the connection, ensure that the unit is arranged for operation with the type of fuel available and
carefully clean all the pipes of the gas system to remove any residues that could affect good functioning of the
boiler.
The gas must be connected to the relative connector (see fig. 19) in conformity with current standards, with rigid metal
pipes or with continuous flexible s/steel wall tubing, placing a gas cock between the system and the boiler. Make sure
that all the gas connections are tight. The capacity of the gas meter must be sufficient for the simultaneous use of all
equipment connected to it. The diameter of the gas pipe leaving the boiler does not determine the diameter of the pipe
between the unit and the meter; it must be chosen according to its length and loss of head, in conformity with current
standards.
B
Do not use the gas pipes to earth electrical appliances.

2.5 Electrical connections

Connection to the electrical grid
B
The unit's electrical safety is only guaranteed when correctly connected to an efficient earthing system exe-
cuted according to current safety standards. Have the efficiency and suitability of the earthing system checked
by professionally qualified personnel. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by failure
to earth the system. Also make sure that the electrical system is adequate for the maximum power absorbed
by the unit, as specified on the boiler dataplate.
The boiler is prewired and provided with a Y-cable and plug for connection to the electricity line. The connections to the
grid must be made with a permanent connection and equipped with a bipolar switch whose contacts have a minimum
opening of at least 3 mm, interposing fuses of max. 3A between the boiler and the line. It is important to respect the
polarities (LINE: brown wire / NEUTRAL: blue wire / EARTH: yellow-green wire) in making connections to the electrical
line. During installation or when changing the power cable, the earth wire must be left 2 cm longer than the others.
B
The user must never change the unit's power cable. If the cable gets damaged, switch off the unit and have it
changed solely by professionally qualified personnel. If changing the electric power cable, use solely "HAR
H05 VV-F" 3x0.75 mm2 cable with a maximum outside diameter of 8 mm.
Room thermostat (optional)
B
CAUTION: The room thermostat must have clean contacts. CONNECTING 230 V. TO THE TERMINALS OF
THE ROOM THERMOSTAT WILL IRREPARABLY DAMAGE THE ELECTRONIC CARD.
When connecting a remote timer control or a timer switch, do not take the power supply for these devices from
their cut-out contacts. Their power supply must be taken with a direct connection from the mains or with bat-
teries, depending on the kind of device.
