    Display diagnostic An help for the fault finding may be given by the display indications. The display on the control panel gives many informa- tion. Only the indications useful for the fault finding are here described. The following table gives the relationship between the indications of error of the display and their meaning.
  • Page 13: Condensing Heat Exchanger

    Condensing heat exchanger Function The Condensing heat exchanger A in Fig. 5.1 has the function of transferring heat produced from combus- tion of the gas and from the flue exhausted gas to the water circulating in it. Fig. 5.1 By reducing the combustion products temperature, the latent heat of the vapour is transferred to the water cir- cuit, allowing an extra gain of useful heat.
