  • Page 9: The Burner Doesn't Turn On

    The burner doesn’t turn on f Check whether the Remote Control uses an alarm code; in this case, depending on the code, try to restore the operation as described in paragraph “Alarms - boiler block" on page 41. f If the Remote Control display is completely off, the Remote Control connection may be insufficient, but first make sure that the power supply omnipolar switch of the boiler is not turned off or that there are no other power supply interruptions.
  • Page 10: Off Mode With Anti-Frost & Anti-Locking Function

    Remark: the boiler is equipped with a system which protects the main components from the exceptional cases of mechanical lock, due to the inactivity in presence of water and scale. The anti-locking function can’t work in Safety shut off mode, because of the lack of electrical supply. Before switching on the boiler again, have the circulating pump checked by a technician to make sure it is not blocked due to inactivity (for the technician: proceed as described in paragraph “Circulating pump rotor unlocking"...

  • Page 18: Gas Connection

    Gas connection Due to various installation possibilities, the gas cock 3 supplied with the original Connections Kit has a simple male Ø ½” connection, facing the rear of the boiler. The gas pipe 4, upstream the gas cock 3, should be supplied by the installer. While connecting the gas inlet of the boiler to the gas supply piping, it is MANDATORY to insert a PLAIN GASKET, whose dimensions and material must be adequate.
  • Page 19: Electrical Connections

    Electrical connections The link of the Remote Control works with a safety extra low voltage (SELV); connect it to the supplied Remote Control only, as the boiler can't work without it. On NO account must any electrical voltage be applied to these terminals� To avoid malfunctions due to electrical noise, the Remote Control connections, as well as all low-voltage connections, should be kept separated from power supply cables, e.g.

  • Page 21: Flue Systems

    Flue systems intake for Intake/outlet flange split system The boiler is equipped with a flange for connecting inlet and outlet flues pipes; this flange has been studied for collecting rain/water that may creep into the inlet pipe and for avoiding that rain reaches the burner’s fan.
  • Page 22: Sizing C 63 Systems

    Air intake and flue outlet terminals should be protected by suitable approved flue accessories, to avoid environmental elements penetration.

  • Page 32: Pcb Parameters Settings (Technician Menu)

    PCB parameters settings (technician menu) Boiler parameter setting is to be carried out by technical personnel only. The technical menu is accessible from the Service Control panel through a specific key combination owned by the technician. A few of these settings allow to optimise and tailor the boiler working, while a few others allow to set the boiler during maintenance operation.

  • Page 36: Combustion Test

    Combustion test if burner and exchanger cleaning is foreseen, carry it out before testing the combustion (see “Combustion group cleaning and check" on page 30. To perform the test you need a flue analyser, correctly calibrated (in the condensing boiler, the precision and the correctness of the measures is particularly important).

    if one or more CO values was outside allowed ranges, carry out the MANUal combustion calibration (see “Combustion calibration" on page 38); • if the manual calibration doesn't allow to adjust the CO to normal values, carry out an AUTOmatic calibration (remove the analyser during this operation) and then do a manual calibration again, measuring and adjusting the CO .
