1.5 m/s and it should be noted that the appliance is designed to operate with a temperature differential of 20 between flow and return. The maximum flow rate is 0.19 kg/s (HE16S) 0.3 kg/s (HE25S) and 0.38 kg/s (HE31S) which through a 22mm pipe gives a velocity of 0.75 m/z (HE16S) 1.00 m/s. (HE25S) and 1.25 m/s (HE31S) Therefore, the recommended minimum pipe size for the main carcass is 22mm.

GPG 302 NOTE: a differential pressure bypass valve MUST be installed to maintain the following minimum flow rates: Additional Expansion Vessel 12 L/min - HE16S (if required) 18 L/min - HE25S 23 L/min - HE31S differential at maximum heat input).
3. FITTING 3.1 Unpacking the Appliance: CARTON CONTENTS The appliance is supplied packaged complete in one carton • • Paper Template System Boiler Caution: this appliance exceeds the recommended weight • • Wall Plate Rawplug/Screw Pack for a one-man lift as detailed in the Manual Handling Operations, 1992 Regulations.
Page 11
3.5 Condensate Drain: The condensate drain utilises plastic 21.5mm push fit or adhesive overflow pipes and fittings. It should be piped to drain, preferably within the building, maintaining a 44mm in 1m fall away from the appliance. If the drain is routed to outside it should be to a drain or soak away.
Page 12
3.6 Pressure Relief Outlet: Using no less than 15 mm diameter copper pipe, the discharge pipe must be extended to a safe place outside the building. The discharge position must be visible, not onto a public access area or above any window or entrance. The pipe must have a continuous fall and discharge to a safe place.
Page 13
3.8 Flue Terminal Location: Both the horizontal and vertical terminals must be positioned on the outside of the building and the free passage of air must be available at all times.It is not recommended to position the ter- minal close to projections especially under a balcony or near to a drainpipe.

3.10 Electrical Connections: External wiring must be correctly earthed, polarised and in accordance with BS 7671 (current edition). All system components must be an approved type and all electrical components should have been tested and meet the requirements of BEAB or equivalent. All the electrical connec- tions to the heating system must be through a common dou- ble pole isolation switched spur that has a 3 mm separation on each pole and has a 3A rated fuse.
4 COMMISSIONING AND HANDOVER 4.1 Commissioning the Appliance: With all the pipe connections made, open the cold supply water valve on the filling loop NOTE and the CH flow and return valves at the base of the appliance. Open the manual vent at The gas valve is the top of the appliance and bleed, close the manual vent when all the air is removed.
• Explain and demonstrate the function/operation of time/temperature controls and thermostatic radiator valves, emphasising the economic use of the appliance. • If a programmer has been fitted, hand the user instructions that were supplied with the progammer to the occupier. •...

5.2 Gas/Air Duct and Internal Volume of the Burner Remove the cover from the gas / air manifold (8 screws) and inspect the inside of the duct and burner for debris.Clean with a soft brush if necessary. Inspect the 'O' ring seal. Re-assemble the cover ensuring the seal is fitted correctly.
5.5 Ignition and Detection Electrodes Remove the plug cap from the top and the earth wire from the base of the spark electrode. Unscrew the two screws that retain the electrode in the cover plate and remove the assembly. Inspect and clean the electrode, removing any debris and oxi- dation.

Error History Mode The MMI stores the last 8 error codes and these can be viewed by putting the appliance into error history mode. To do this, press the MODE button and “EHIS” will be displayed on the LCD display. The number in the top right hand-corner is the error index (1 being the most recent) and the number in the bottom right hand corner is the error code that applies to that index number.

6.7 Expansion Vessel Close the CH flow and return valves, ensuring the drain point on the flow valve is connected to the appliance side. Drain off the water from within the appliance using the drain valve, remove the LH painted case side and unscrew the flexible hose connection from the expansion vessel.
