3.2.4. Installing the boiler Before connecting the boiler to the CH and DHW system, it needs to be cleaned thoroughly. Before putting a NEW system into service, clean thoroughly to remove any metal residue left over from manufacturing and welding processes, and any oil and grease deposits. This is because if they got into the boiler they would damage it or interfere with operation.
Connecting to the stack DIMENSIONS FOR CONNECTING THE FLUE GAS PIPE The stack plays a vital role in efficient operation of the system. FOR NATURAL DRAUGHT BOILERS It must meet the following requirements: • It must be made of waterproof material that is resistant to the temperature of the flue gas and any condensate formed.
type type 3.2.7.1. Air/flue gas pipe configuration: type B22, C12, C32, C42, C52, C82 B22 This boiler is intended for connection to an existing flue system either inside or outside the boiler room. Combustion air is drawn straight from the boiler room itself and flue gas is conveyed to the outside.
3.2.7.2. Air/flue gas system with 100/60 mm diameter coaxial pipes C12 - C32 - C42 installation types BTFS 24 The minimum acceptable length of pipes is 0.5 metres plus one elbow. The maximum acceptable length of pipes is 4 metres plus one elbow. In the presence of additional elbows, the maximum acceptable length must be reduced by 1 metre for each elbow installed.
3.2.7.3. Air/flue gas system with 80 mm diameter split pipes Choosing the right diaphragm supplied with the boiler Pipe length Diameter of the flue gas C12 - C32 - C42 - C52 - C82 installation types diaphragm (mm) L < 2 Ø...

3.2.8. Measuring combustion efficiency 3.2.8.1. Chimney-sweep function The boiler has a chimney-sweep function that can be used for testing boiler combustion efficiency and adjusting the burner. To activate this function, it is necessary to open the front section of the casing for access to the controls.
3.2.9. Gas mains connection The cross-section of the gas supply pipe must be equal to or greater than that of the boiler gas inlet pipe. The cross-section of the pipe depends on its length and route and the gas flow rate. The gas pipe must be dimensioned accordingly.
3.2.11. Adjustable by-pass By-pass By-pass disabled enabled The boiler is equipped with an adjustable by-pass that can be disabled by means of a screw. Figure 20A shows the position of the screw to disable the by-pass. Figure 20B shows the position of the screw to enable the by-pass. The boiler is delivered with the by-pass disabled.
3.2.15. Installation of the (optional) external probe and sliding temperature operation The boiler can be connected to an (optional) external temperature probe for sliding temperature operation. Only original external temperature probes supplied by the manufacturer must be used. If non-original external temperature probes are used, correct operation of the boiler cannot be guaranteed. The external temperature probe must be connected by means of a double insulated wire, minimum cross-section 0.35 sq.mm. The probe must be connected to terminal M8 on the boiler’s printed circuit board (fig. 23). The temperature probe cables must NOT be routed together with power cables.
3.3. Filling the system When all the boiler connections have been completed, the CH system can be filled with water. This must be done with caution, following these steps in sequence. • Open the air purging valve on all the radiators and check the efficiency of the automatic boiler valve. •...
3.6. Adapting to other gases and regulating the burner This boiler is built to run on the type of gas specified on the order, which is shown on the packaging and on the boiler rating plate. If you wish to switch to another type of gas, this must be done by a qualified technician using the accessories supplied by the manufacturer.
TESTING THE BOILER 4.1. Preliminary checks Before testing the boiler, it is advisable to check that: • the installation complies with the current regulations; • the flue gas discharge pipe and terminal are installed as instructed: when the boiler is running, no combustion gas must leak from any of the gaskets;...
Cleaning operations: • Inside of the boiler • Gas nozzles • Air intake and flue gas discharge circuit (BTFS) • Draft diverter (BTN) • Boiler room ventilation grille (BTN) • Flue gas side of the heat exchanger. Checks to perform when using the boiler for the first time. •...
