Fuel (User) The fuel for combustion of boilers of the SE MAX II series is hardwood not exceeding 20% humidity, hard coal of the OI range. Hardwoods such as beech, hornbeam, oak, birch, alder and ash are recommended. The use of coniferous wood is not recommended as it causes burnt boilers and the need for more frequent cleaning.
METAL-FACH Heating Technology Requirements for the boiler room and boiler installation (User | Installer) In Poland, boiler houses built for solid fuel should meet the requirements of PN-87/B-02411 "Boiler houses built for solid fuel" and OJ. 2015.0.1422. They are divided into two types: 1.

METAL-FACH Heating Technology mechanical ventilation, switched on periodically during fuel filling and slagging of the boilers, ensuring a minimum of 10 full air changes per hour; ● natural lighting should be included in the boiler room, illuminating the boiler from the front, and the window area should be a minimum of 1/15 of the boiler room floor area;...
Page 19
METAL-FACH Heating Technology NOTE! Mechanical exhaust ventilation should not be used in the boiler room. NOTE! Ensuring that sufficient fresh air flows into the boiler room will enable the fuel to burn efficiently. NOTE! Excessive carbon dioxide in the room should be prevented.
Assembly of the boiler (User | Installer) An important part of installation is the correct positioning and levelling of the SE MAX II type boiler, these boilers do not require special foundations. The boiler must stand vertically. 1. Check that four feet are included.
METAL-FACH Heating Technology The boiler should be placed on a heat insulating non-combustible pad which should be 2 cm larger than the base of the boiler on each side. If the boiler is located in a basement, it is recommended that it is placed on a foundation of at least 5 cm.

METAL-FACH Heating Technology Requirements for the expansion vessel (Installer) Every open system heating system should be fitted with an expansion vessel whose function is to take up the increase in volume of the water filling the system and to vent. This vessel should be installed at the highest point of the system, if possible in a vertical line above the boiler(s).
METAL-FACH Heating Technology Connection of the boiler to the electrical installation (Installer) The boiler is designed for a voltage connection of 230V/50Hz. The installation should be carried out by a qualified person. The 230V/10A grounded connection socket should be easily accessible. The boiler power supply and the boiler room lighting should have a different circuit.

METAL-FACH Heating Technology Chimney selection In most cases, an approximate method or selection according to the chimney manufacturer's diagrams is sufficient for chimney selection. In special cases (unfavourable pressure and temperature relationships, large flue gas volume) chimneys are calculated according to the applicable standard. A low outlet flue gas temperature at the nominal boiler output can cause damp flue gases, soot deposits, insufficient chimney draught.
METAL-FACH Heating Technology Commissioning the boiler (User | Installer) Before starting the fire in the boiler, check that the central heating system has been made correctly and that it is filled correctly with water - up to the overflow pipe from the collection vessel.

METAL-FACH Heating Technology NOTE! If for any reason there is a lack of water in the boiler - mains system, do not top up with cold water. Cool the boiler down to 30 °C as quickly as possible and only after the boiler has cooled down, top up with water and start firing again.
METAL-FACH Heating Technology When using the boiler, remember (User) ● The boiler may only be operated by adults who have read the operating instructions; ● It is forbidden for children to be near the boiler without an adult present; ●...
METAL-FACH Heating Technology Cleaning and maintenance of the boiler (User) NOTE! The boiler must only be cleaned when the appliance is switched off from the mains. The combustion chamber and the convection ducts of the boiler must be kept clean to save fuel. In the combustion chamber it is necessary to clean the walls and shelves through the cleaning and inspection doors.
