1.4. Operating the boiler 1.4.1. Switching on the boiler The following procedure is to be implemented only after the boiler is installed and tested by a qualified fitter. - Open the gas stop cock. - Turn ON the master switch external to the boiler; the LCD shows and indicates the active function (see Table 1). - Select boiler operation mode via selector 2 (Fig.
Regulating the DHW temperature If the water heater has an NTC probe (10 kΩ @ β=3435; refer to the water heater handbook), the temperature setting range is 35-65°C (from the fully anticlockwise to the fully clockwise position on knob 3). During temperature setting, the DHW symbol flashes on the display and the DHW temperature setting is displayed.
Once the remote control has been installed, turn selector 2 on the boiler (Fig. 1) to WINTER. CH and DHW functions can be enabled and disabled via the remote control. Correct operation of the boiler and remote control are not guaranteed if selector 2 on the boiler is left on a position other than WINTER.
1.5. Boiler shutdown The boiler shuts down automatically if a malfunction occurs. Refer to Tables 1 and 2 to identify the boiler operating mode. Refer to Table 2 and section 6 to identify possible causes of the shutdown. The troubleshooting section is at the end of this manual. Below is a list of possible causes of the shutdown and the procedure to follow in each case.
1.5.5. Shutdown for fan malfunction Fan operation is constantly monitored and in case of a malfunction it goes off; the boiler shutdown symbol is displayed and code E17 flashes. This mode is maintained until the fan recovers normal working parameters. If the boiler should not start and remain in this mode, contact an Authorised Service Centre or a qualified service engineer.
The following models are available: KR 55: condensing boiler with sealed chamber and forced draught, supplying CH water, 55kW KR 85: condensing boiler with sealed chamber and forced draught, supplying CH water, 85kW The boilers meet applicable laws in force in the country of destination, which is stated on the rating plate.

Installation standards This is an II2H3P category boiler and it must be installed in compliance with the laws and regulations in force in the country of installation. 3.2. Installation Accessories and spare parts for installation and service procedures must be supplied by the Manufacturer. Correct boiler performance cannot be guaranteed if non-original accessories and spare parts are used.

3.2.4. Installing the boiler The whole system must be cleaned thoroughly before the boiler is connected to the pipes in the central heating system,. Before starting up a NEW system, clean it thoroughly to remove any metal residues from the construction or welding process, and any oil or grease present as this could get into the boiler and damage it.
3.2.6. Air intale and flue gas discharge system Flue gas discharge into the atmosphere and air intake and flue gas discharge systems must comply with the applicable rules and regula- tions, which are intended as an integral part of this handbook. The boiler is fitted with safety devices to control emission of products of combustion.
3.2.6.1. Configuration of air intake and flue gas discharge pipes Boilers are approved for installation according to the following types: KR 55: B23, B53, C13, C33, C43, C53, C83 KR 85: B23, B53, C43, C53, C83 Type B23 Boiler designed for connection to a flue or a combustion product discharge device outside the boiler room.

(Fig. 15). The chimney-sweep function operates for 15 minutes. To exit chimney-sweep mode, turn selector 2 to any position other than WINTER and then to the desired setting. KR 85 KR 55 fig. 14 fig. 15...
3.2.7.2. Measurement procedure KR 55 The boiler is equipped with a tower connecting the air intake and flue gas discharge pipes (Figs. 16 and 17). The tower comes with two openings for direct access to the combustion air and flue gas pipes (Fig. 17).
3.2.9. Plumbing connections Prior to installing the boiler, the plumbing system nust be cleaned thoroughly to remove impurities from the components, which could damage the pump and heat exchanger (§ 3.2.4.). CH pipes The flow and return pipes in the CH system must be connected to their respective 1” fittings (M and R) on the boiler (Figs. 6 and 7). When calculating the cross-section of CH pipes, it is important to take into account load losses due to the length of the pipe, the CH terminals and the configuration of the system.
3.2.11. Selecting the CH operating range The setting range for the CH water temperature depends on the operating range selected. - standard range: 20-78°C (from full anticlockwise to full clockwise position on knob 4); - reduced range: 20-45°C (from full anticlockwise to full clockwise position on knob 4). To select the operating range, turn the thermoregulation trimmer (Fig.
The remote control must not be connected to a 230 V ~ 50 Hz power supply. For instructions on how to program the remote control, refer to the booklet provided with it. The remote control can be used to read and enter a series of parameters, called TSPs, which must be done by a qualified technician (Tables 9 and 10).
Page 32
In addition, the position of the thermoregulation trimmer determines the CH operating range, according to the following values. TSP5 parameter values which select the reduced range 0 ÷ 75 Coefficients corresponding to thermoregulation curves 0,0 ÷ 0,8 TSP5 parameter values which select the standard range 76 ÷...
3.3. Filling the system When all the boiler connections have been completed, the CH system can be filled with water. This must be done with caution, following these steps in sequence. - Open the air relief valve on all the radiators and check the efficiency of the automatic boiler valve. - Gradually open the boiler filling tap and check that any automatic air relief valves work efficiently.
(D in Fig. 23). - Replace the existing diaphragm with one for PROPANE (Tables 3 and 4). - Make the reconnection (A in Fig. 24 for KR 55 and D in Fig. 23 for KR 85). - Refer to § 3.6.3.
4. Testing the boiler Each boiler comes with a test certificate that must be completed when testing the boiler in order to benefit of the warranty. 4.1. Preliminary checks Before testing the boiler, it is advisable to check that • the installation complies with the current regulations; •...
5. Maintenance Maintenance and repairs must be carried out by a fully qualified technician. The user is strongly advised to have the boiler serviced and repaired by one of the Manufacturer’s fully qualified and Authorised Service Centres. Correct maintenance of the boiler will allow it to work efficiently, without harming the environment, and in complete safety. 5.1.
