  • Page 11: Safety Measures For Preventing Internal Flue Gas Recirculation

    Safety measures for preventing internal flue gas recirculation The heat exchanger of the S-CB 400 & 550 boiler contains two burners. The air supply channels of both burners are internally connected to each other, so the installer only needs to connect one air supply duct to the boiler. The controller allows the situation in which only one burner is burning, while the other one is off.
  • Page 12: Description Of The Most Important Boiler Parts

    Description of the most important boiler parts 1. Fan The fan is a compact unit: the motor and fan housing are an integral part and can be replaced as a complete unit. The fan varies in speed due to the boiler control, which ensures that the modulation of the boiler is attained. 2.
  • Page 13: Technical Dimensions Of The S-Cb

    7. Non-return valve A non-return valve fitted behind the fan will prevent recirculation of flue gases from one burner to the other burner (when this burner is not operating). 8. Heat exchanger The heat exchanger consists of spirals of stainless steel smooth tube. Through the openings between the spirals the flue gases are pushed, establishing an optimal heat transfer.

  • Page 15: Installation Of The S-Cb

    INSTALLATION OF THE S-CB 400 & 550 General notes The boiler is mounted on a pallet with a wooden “support” frame around it. The boiler is wrapped in shrink warp before the wooden support frame is mounted. After the frame is placed the whole pallet, boiler and frame package is shrink wrapped again.
  • Page 16: Ventilation

    • Ensure that the correct space is provided when positioning the boiler for maintenance and replacement of parts. The recommended minimum clearance is: - Side clearance: 500 mm (advised 1000 mm) - Front clearance: 800 mm - Rear clearance: 500 mm •...
  • Page 17: 5.4 Mounting The Boiler

    5.4 Mounting the boiler Before mounting the boiler, the installer needs to design and calculate the following parts: • Flue gas pipe connection. • Air supply connection. • Flow and return connection. • Condensate and pressure relief valve drainage. • Power supply.
  • Page 18: Condensate Drain Connection

    Condensate drain connection The condensate drain is placed at the centre and at the bottom of the boiler and has a ¾ inch hose discharge. Connect this flexible hose to the sewer system. Use only plastic parts with the condensate drain. Metal lines are not allowed.
  • Page 19: Pressure Relief Valve

    The boiler pump must be controlled by the boiler controller. If, for any reason, an external pump control is applied without written approval of Strebel, the complete warranty on the boiler and all supplied parts will become invalid.

  • Page 21: Plastic Piping In The Heating System

    6.11 Plastic piping in the heating system When plastic pipes are used in the central heating system and NOT oxygen diffusion proof to standard DIN 4726, these should be separated from the boiler system by using a plate heat exchanger. Diffusion (through the plastic) can cause air to enter the heating system.
  • Page 22: Chemical Water Treatment

    Higher pressure systems (e.g. in high buildings) If pressures higher than 4,0 bar occur in the heating system, the best solution is to separate the system from the boiler by means of a plate heat exchanger. Now the boiler pressure can still be under 4,0 bar and the boiler control remains as described above.
