1. Safety instructions The following symbols are used in conjunction with these important instructions concerning personal safety, as well as operational reliability. "Safety instructions" are instructions with which you must comply exactly, to prevent risks and injuries to individuals and material losses. Danger through 'live' electrical components! NB: Switch OFF the ON/OFF switch before removing the casing. Never touch electrical components or contacts when the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position! This results in a risk of electrocution that may lead to injury or death. The terminals are 'live' even when the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position. This indicates technical instructions which you must observe to prevent damage and malfunctions.

To save energy and protect against scaling Wolf oil condensing boilers must only be installed by a if the total hardness is greater than 15 °dH recognised heating contractor. This heating contractor (2.5 mol/m³), the DHW temperature may be set will also be responsible for the proper installation and the to a maximum of 50 °C.
- The combustion air must be free from halogenated hydrocarbons. - A surface temperature of 40 °C is not exceeded in the case of COB if operated as intended. The respective national fire regulations are to be observed in the case of installation in oil storage rooms.
Safety equipment Domestic hot water may be used as fill water and top-up water. The COB has not been fitted with an expansion vessel at the factory. This must be fitted externally (available from the The addition of chemicals or de-scaling using single-stage ion Wolf accessories range).

Installation examples Pipe assembly for three heating circuits with manifold for safety assembly installation Pipe assembly for two heating circuits with manifold for safety assembly installation Pipe assembly for one heating circuit for safety assembly installation Safety assembly for fixing to the corrugated stainless steel pipes of heating flow and return The safety assembly and the required pipe assembly can be installed on the left, on the right or at the back of the boiler on a wall or attached to the side of the boiler casing.
0.3 bar in the oil line. We therefore recommend using electromagnetically controlled anti-lift valves. The electrical anti-lift devices can be connected to the COB in two ways: 1. The anti-lift valve is connected at output A1. For this, output A1 must be programmed to 9 (oil shut-off valve), see HG14.
13. Siphon/neutralisation/condensate pump Condensate drain without neutralisation If low sulphur fuel oil EL (sulphur content < 50 mg/kg) is used, it may be possible to forego neutralisation of the condensate after consultation with the lower water authority. The condensate may be discharged into drainage pipes only in accordance with ATV DVGW worksheet A251.
