21.Inspection glass
In this appliance, the cold water enters the bottom of the storage tank through
the cold water inlet (24). The system pump (22) ensures that the water flows into
the appliance. The water is heated by the heat exchanger (20) in the
combustion chamber (19).
The heated water leaves the appliance via the return valve (26) and then, once
heated, flows into the storage tank (32).
To prevent condensation from forming in the appliance, the water that flows into
it via the supply line (25) must not be colder than 30
the very first time, or after it has been shut down for a long period.
Once the appliance and the storage tank are completely filled with water, they
are permanently pressurised by the water pipes. As hot water is drawn from the
storage tank, cold water is immediately added.
Water flows into the appliance through the ribbed elements (20). This ribbing
ensures better heat transfer. There are aluminium strips (4) on these elements.
These slow down the flue gases, improving the yield. The air required for
combustion is forcibly delivered by the fan (10).
The appliance has two identical gas controls (9) of which one will be open
(partial load) or both (full load). Thanks to the modulated supply of gas and air
(8), the optimum gas/air mixture is always achieved. The flue gases are
removed via the flue gas outlet pipe (6). The air supply and flue gas outlet are
always in parallel.
The insulation layer (2) prevents heat loss. To protect against corrosion, the
storage tank is enamelled on the inside. Anodes provide extra protection
against corrosion.
For maintenance, the storage tank has an aperture for inspection and cleaning.

2.4Protection for the
appliance
2.4.1Introduction
The electronic controller monitors the water temperature and ensures safe
combustion. This is achieved by:
•the Water temperature protection
•the Gas control
•the Fan
•the Pressure switch
•the Flame probe
•the Flow-through switch

2.4.3Gas control
When heat is required, the controller (5) opens the left-hand gas control (9) so
that the gas can flow into the premix bar burners (18) of the first tray of burners.
The air is mixed in with the gas at the front of the burners. The hot surface igniter
(17) ignites the leftmost burner. The adjacent burners then ignite from left to
right.
If more heat is demanded, the controller opens the second gas control (9) as
well. There is no separate igniter for the ignition of the second tray of burners.
The gas controls have two valves as safety devices. The valves shut off the gas
supply.
Smooth ignition is achieved by opening the gas controls with a delay ("softlite").
2.4.4Fan
The fan (10) provides an optimum air supply (8) when there is a heat demand.
This air comes into a separate chamber on the air distribution plate (13).
Overpressure is created in the space and the air can only escape the appliance
via the premix bar burners (18).
As a safety feature, the fan ensures that any gases present in the combustion
chamber are removed, both before and after combustion. We refer to this as
pre-purge and post-purge.
The fan speed is continuously monitored by the electronic controller (5). The
electronic controller takes control if the speed of rotation varies too much from
the set value.
2.4.5Pressure switch
The pressure switch (12) guarantees the air supply during pre-purging and
when the appliance is operational. The standard position of the pressure switch
is open. When sufficient pressure difference is reached, the pressure switch
closes. However, in the event of a fault, the pressure switch is tripped open, and
the heating cycle is interrupted.
16Instruction manual GWV
Page 17

Pressure measurements are made at the air distribution plate (high pressure)
and in a Venturi in the burners (low pressure).
The table shows the trip point per appliance.
Note
The trip point of the pressure switch is not adjustable.

2.4.6Flame probe
To ensure that no gas can flow when there is no combustion, the water heater
has a flame probe (14). The electronic controller uses this probe for flame
detection, by means of ionisation detection. The electronic control closes the
gas valve as soon as it detects that no flame is present.
2.4.7Flow-through switch
the flow-through switch (29) guarantees the flow of water through the appliance
(before operation and while the appliance is running). The standard position of
the flow-through switch is open. When the flow is sufficient, the switch closes
and the heating cycle starts. If the flow of water through the appliance gets too
low, then the switch opens, which interrupts the heating cycle; this is to prevent
overheating.
Flow measurement is done in the return line between the appliance and the
storage tank.

2.5Safety of the installation
2.5.1Unvented installation
2.5.2Vented installation
Working principle of the appliance
gis
As well as the standard safeties in the appliance (2.4 "Protection for the
appliance"), it must also be protected by an inlet combination and a pressure-
reducing valve. A P-valve is also used.
With unvented installation, an expansion valve and expansion vessel prevent
excessive pressure in appliance. This prevents damage being caused to the
enamelled coating (in the appliance) or to the heat exchanger. A non-return
valve prevents excessive pressure build-up in the water supply system. This
valve also prevents water from flowing backwards from the storage tank into the
cold water supply system. The pressure-reducing valve protects the installation
against excessively high water supply pressures (> 8 bar). These components
are fitted (3.6 "Water connections, Vented") to the cold water pipe.
With a vented installation, excess pressure is taken up by the open water tank.
The height of the head tank determines the working pressure in the appliance,
which may not exceed 8 bar. The appliance must also be fitted with a vent pipe
from the hot water pipe, which opens into the cold water tank.
Normally, the vent pipe should discharge into a separate discharge
channel/drain or otherwise to the open cold water head tank. The appliance
should also be fitted with a stop valve (3.6.2 "Hot water side") on the hot water
side.
2.5.3Inlet combination and pressure-reducing valve
An excessively high pressure in the storage tank can damage the enamelled
layer. An inlet combination and pressure-reducing valve prevents this. The inlet
combination acts as a stop valve, non-return valve and overflow valve. If the
water supply pressure is too high (> 8 bar), a pressure-reducing valve must be
used. Both components must be fitted in the cold water supply (3.6 "Water
connections, Vented").
2.5.4P-valve
The appliance has a P-valve (33) as standard. A P-valve (Pressure Relief Valve)
monitors the pressure in the installation. If the pressure gets too high (> 10 bar),
the valve will open. The water can now flow out of the installation. Because the
installation is under water supply pressure, cold water will automatically flow into
the storage tank. The valve remains open until the unsafe situation (< 10 bar)
has been resolved.

The service program is used by the installation
engineer or service and maintenance engineer for:
•Setting the hysteresis;
•Displaying the error history;
•Displaying the appliance history;
•Displaying the appliance selection;
•Switching the pump on or off;
•Setting the service interval;
•Setting the display contrast;
•Setting the display backlight switching period;

These submenus are briefly described in the following
paragraphs. If you are not familiar in general with how
to use the displays and menus, first read the
relevant (7 "The control panel") chapter.
Note
The notation convention for the service menu is
identical to that of the main menu (11.2 "Notational
convention for menu-related instructions"). The
difference is that you use to call up the service
program, instead of , which calls up the main menu.
12.2 Setting the hysteresis
If the preset temperature (SET POINT) is higher than
the current water temperature, the appliance might not
immediately start the heating cycle (2.3 "The
appliance's heating cycle"). This is caused by the built-
in safety margin. To prevent excessively frequent
switching on and off, there is a heating margin. This
margin is called the hysteresis. The hysteresis can be
set DOWN (negative hysteresis). The hysteresis can
be adjusted between 2°C and 7°C.
Set the hysteresis DOWN as follows:
•:
HYSTERESIS DOWN»4ÉC

The figure shows an example.
12.3 Displaying the error history

The controller will display an overview of "Blocking
errors" and "Lock out errors". In both cases, the
electronic controller reserves 15 lines for the last 15
error messages. If there are fewer than 15 error
messages, three points (...) are displayed. The display
first shows the "Blocking errors". When is
pressed, the "Lock out errors" are displayed.

13.1 Introduction
A distinction is made between:
•General errors
General errors are not reported on the display. General errors are:
-Gas smell
-Display does not light up
-Insufficient or no hot water.
-Water leakage
-Explosive ignition.
The manual includes (13.2 "Troubleshooting table for general errors") a
table with general errors.
•Displayed errors
Errors are reported on the display as follows:
-One: a code plus a brief description. The code consists of a letter and
two digits.
-Two, three and four: a long description, alternating with a
recommended action every two seconds. See the figures. The first
shows a possible error, the second shows the appropriate checking
action.

There are various types of errors, all falling into one of two groups:
-LOCK OUT ERRORS
When the cause has been removed, these errors must be reset with
the button before the appliance can resume operation.
-BLOCKING ERRORS
These errors disappear automatically when the cause of the error is
removed, after which the appliance resumes operation by itself.
The manual includes (13.3 "Troubleshooting table for displayed errors") a
table of error messages that can appear on the display.

14Maintenance
frequency
14.1 Introduction
14.2 Determining service
interval
A service should be carried out at least once a year, both on the water side and
on the gas side. Maintenance frequency depends, among other things, on the
water quality, the average burning time per day and the set water temperature.
Note
Regular maintenance extends the service life of the appliance.
To determine the correct maintenance frequency, it is recommended to arrange
for the service and maintenance engineer to check the appliance on both the
water and gas side, three months after installation. Based on this check, the
best maintenance frequency can be determined.
To aid servicing, the electronic controller has a service interval with which the
service and maintenance engineer can determine the frequency of
maintenance, based on the number of burning hours.
The service interval can be set to: 500, 1000 or 1500 burning hours. The
standard setting is 500 burning hours.
Example
In the first three months, the appliance has burned for 300 hours. During
maintenance, it is evident that one service per year will be sufficient. Therefore,
after one year, some 1200 burning hours will have elapsed. The first value below
1200 hours that can be selected is 1000 burning hours.
In this case, the service and maintenance engineer sets the interval to 1000.
In the first three months, the appliance has burned for 300 hours. During
maintenance, it is evident (perhaps due to the water quality) that service will be
required at least once every 6 months.
Therefore, after six months, some 600 burning hours will have elapsed. The first
value below 600 hours that can be selected is 500 burning hours.
In this case, the service and maintenance engineer sets the interval to 500.
!!!WARNING!!!

15.3 Water-side maintenance
15.3.1Introduction
15.3.2Checking the anodes
15.3.3Descaling and cleaning the storage tank
The following steps must be carried out on the water side:
1. Checking the anodes
2. Descaling and cleaning the storage tank
Timely replacement of the anodes extends the service life of the appliance. The
appliance's anodes must be replaced as soon as they are 60% used or more
(take this into consideration when determining the maintenance frequency).
1. Loosen the anodes using suitable tools.
2. Check the anodes, and if necessary, replace them.
Scale and lime buildup prevent effective conduction of the heat to the water.
Periodic cleaning and descaling prevents buildup of these deposits. This
increases the service life of the appliance, and also improves the heating
process.
Take the rate of scale formation into account when deciding on maintenance
frequency. Scale formation depends on the local water composition, the water
consumption and the water temperature setting. A water temperature setting of
maximum 60°C is recommended for prevention of excessive scale buildup.
To guarantee a good, watertight seal around the cleaning opening, replace the
gasket, washers, bolts and, if necessary, the lid with new parts before
reassembly (see the figure). A special set is obtainable from the
supplier/manufacturer.
To simplify descaling and cleaning of the tank, the storage tank has a cleaning
opening.

1. Remove the cover plate (1) on the outer jacket (see the figure).
2. Undo the bolts.
3. Remove the cover and the gasket.
4. Inspect the storage tank and remove the loose limescale deposits and
contamination.
5. If the scale cannot be removed by hand, then the appliance will need to be
descaled using a descaling agent. Contact the supplier for advice on the
preferred descaling agent.
6. Close the cleaning opening. To avoid damage to the storage tank, tighten
the bolts that fasten the lid with a torque no greater than 50 Nm. Use suitable
tools for this.
