Fault Codes Fault codes take priority over all other display functions in the event of a system fault occurring and the LCD shows one of the following numeric error codes. If multiple faults occur, the corresponding fault codes are displayed alternately for about two seconds each.
Safety Safe use of kerosene. These fuels give off a flammable vapour when heated moderately. Vapour ignites easily, burns intensely and may cause explosion. The vapour can follow along at ground level for considerable distances from open containers and spillages collecting as an explosive mixture in drains, cellars, etc.
A heat protection shield should be fitted if the terminal is less than 850mm from a plastic or painted gutter or less than 450mm from painted eaves. Saturn Heating recommends as per OFTEC recommendations that the flue should be a minimum distance of 1 metre from openings so that it does not cause a nuisance and permits the dispersal of combustion products.
Page 15
Flues Regulations Clearances advised by the British Standards, provided by OFTEC, for open flues, low level balanced flues and balanced flues fitted to oil fired boilers. Minimum distances to terminals in millimetres as measured from top of the chimney or the rim of a low level discharge opening.
Page 16
Flues Regulations - Terminating positions A to L are only permitted for appliances that have been approved for low level flue discharge when tested to OFS A100 or A101 - Terminating positions must be at least 1.8 metres distant from an oil storage tank unless a wall with at least 30 mins fire resistance and extending 300mm higher and wider than the tank is provided between the tank and the terminating position.
Page 17
Flues Regulations N.B. Please Carefully Note: In OFTEC Book Four, 2010 page 33, 6.6.5 states that for the Republic of Ireland, “It is not permitted to install open flue appliances in domestic garages, therefore only room sealed balance flue appliances should be installed in a garage location” Definitions: Combustion Air: Air required directly by boiler oil burner for combustion process.
Before using the boiler Fuel It is essential to use only kerosene or light oil. It is better to use kerosene when the temperature can drop below -5 ˚C. Choose a fuel storage location in accordance with local regulations (See page 14 - Flue Regulations). Take care to avoid the ingress of water and/or dirt during re-filling as this can lead to f lame failure or affect the lifespan of the boiler.

and that the low water level alarm is not activated. Notes when using Take care when positioning the boiler. Do not locate in the immediate vicinity of flammable materials. suitable measurement equipment to ensure correct combustion is taking place. Do not plug out the power supply as this will de-activate the frost protection.
How to use Purging the oil supply Avoid complete emptying of the oil tank. This can lead to air being introduced to the fuel system and may result in ignition failure. Loosen the screw in the oil filter. This will allow the fuel supply line to vent.
Page 21
Reset the boiler by turning the power off and on. Close the oil pump vent, press the power button again and the boiler will ignite. If the boiler fails to fire after 3 successive attempts contact the Saturn technical helpline on 1890 929 112. Preparation and checking before start-up Ensure the system is full and at suitable operation pressures.
Safety devices Ignition safety device When the boiler does not ignite, or if the flame falls the flame detector (photocell) will deactivate the boiler. Low water level safety device If the water level is insufficient in the boiler the low water level sensor will deactivate the boiler.
Everyday checks Points to be checked once or more a year Ensure that combustible materials are not stored near the boiler. Keep the area around the boiler clean and free from obstruction to allow for free air flow. Check for fuel leaks within the fuel storage/supply system and check for water leaks within and around the boiler.
Servicing The Boiler Cleaning of the boiler Soot build-up within the boiler will reduce its The boiler should be serviced annually by an approved service engineer. Cleaning the oil filter To clean the oil filter, first isolate the oil supply. Remove the oil cup by unscrewing and pulling the cup downwards.
Page 25
Cleaning the flame detector If the flame detector (photocell) becomes sooty or dirty the reduced sensitivity will cause erratic and incorrect boiler operation. Remove the flame detector (photocell) which is located at the top of the burner. Wipe the glass surface of the flame detector (photocell) using a clean rag and replace.
Plumbing Schematic Choosing of the installation place Choose an installation site that allows easy access for installation, maintenance and operation. When choosing an installation site, take care to conform to all local regulations and standards. Allow as much free space around the boiler as possible for maintenance and reduced fire hazard.

Allowing combustion gas to re-enter the boiler room can result in a build up of carbon monoxide, which could result in poisoning. Saturn recommends the CAUTION installation of a suitable carbon monoxide detector on all installations.

1. Condensate is produced when the condensing boiler is running and should be piped to the drainage system. 2. Link the drain hose with the outlet of the neutralization system which is located at the bottom of boiler and then connect the end of the hose to a soak pit. 3.
Commissioning The Boiler 1. Prime the boiler with kerosene and press the power button on, ensuring there is a heat request from your time clock. The boiler then takes 3 attempts to go into ignition phase. 2. The fan will start up and purge the air through the heat exchanger - Troubleshooting if sequence missed: •...
