7 Installation Caution Provide a separate power supply for the pump and a power switch, if necessary. The output available per outlet is 450 W (2 A, with cos ϕ = 0.7) and the inrush current must be less that 16 A. If the load exceeds either of these values, the control must be relayed using a contactor that must in no circumstances be installed in the control panel.
7 Installation Caution All connections are made to the terminal blocks provided for that purpose in the boiler connection box. The output available per outlet is 180 W (1 A, with cos ϕ = 0.8) and the inrush current must be less that 5 A. If the load exceeds either of these values, the control must be relayed using a contactor that must not be installed in the control panel under any circumstances.
7 Installation 1. Clean the installation with a powerful universal cleaner. 2. Flush the installation with at least 3 times the volume of water contained in the central heating system (until the water runs clear and shows no impurities). For more information, see Water treatment, page 27 Flushing an existing installation Before filling the heating installation, it is essential to remove any sludge...
8 Commissioning Commissioning General Commissioning the boiler is done for first time use, after a prolonged shut- down (more than 28 days) or after any event that would require complete re-installation of the boiler. Commissioning of the boiler allows the user to review the various settings and checks to be made to start up the boiler in complete safety.
8 Commissioning 8.3.2 Checking the electrical connections 1. Check for the presence of the recommended circuit breaker. 2. Check the electrical connection to the mains. 3.
