    Econcept 50 A Outside temperature compensation When the (optional) external probe is installed, the boiler regulation system functions in “Outside temperature compensation” mode. In this mode, the temperature of the heating system is regulated according to the external climatic conditions, so as to guarantee a high degree of comfort and energy saving all year round.

    Econcept 50 A Make Up Water Provision must be made for replacing water lost from the sealed system. Reference should be made to BS6798, for methods of filling and making up sealed systems. There must be no direct connection between the boiler's central heating system and the mains water supply.
  • Page 12: Electrical Connections

    The boilers are comprehensive of a special Y-type power cable. If the cable gets damaged, switch off the unit and have it changed by a Ferroli authorized Service Centre. If changing the electric power cable, use solely “HAR H05 VV-F” 3x0.75 mm2 cable with a maximum outside diameter of 8 mm.

    Econcept 50 A 2.6 Flues Econcept is a type-C boiler with forced draught, the air inlet and the flue gas outlet must be connected to one of the exhaust–intake systems indicated as follows. Using the tables and the methods of calculation described, first verify, before installation, that the flues do not exceed the maximum allowed length.
  • Page 16 Econcept 50 A Two pipe flue system The separate Ø80 pipes for air intake and flue gas exhaust can be connected directly to the boiler, as shown in Fig. 10. Upon request, a wide range of pipes, bends and accessories can be supplied. For the various components, refer to tables 1-2 or to the flue accessory catalogue.
