2.3 HOW THE APPLIANCE WORKS
2. INSTALLATION
These regulations (byelaws in Scotland) ensure a good supply of wholesome water, and that only approved materials, pipes and fittings are used to convey water.
These are a statutory document and take priority over all other regulations and recommendations. The installation of an unvented hot water storage cylinder is classified as a “Controlled Service” and Regulation G3 applies.To meet the requirements of the Regulation, installation of an unvented system should be undertaken by a “competent installer”. All installations of unvented hot water storage systems having a capacity of more than 15 litres should be notified to the relevant Local Authority by means of building notice or by the submission of full plans. It is important to note that it is a criminal offense to install an unvented hot water storage system without notifying the Local Authority. The installation of the unvented cylinder and hot water system must comply with BS 6700 and the HSE Legionella Code of Practice.
The immersion heater(s) are controlled through a thermostat which senses the water temperature. The operating temperature can be pre-set by adjusting the spindle in the head of the thermostat. In addition to the thermostat there is a thermal cut-out incorporated if the thermostat fails and the water temperature rises too high. Once the cut-out operates it can only be re-set manually after the fault has been rectified. Indirect models have dual thermal controls. In addition to the above there is a separate cylinder thermostat and thermal cut-out for controlling the indirect circuit. Again the thermal cut-out operates if the cylinder thermostat fails, by disconnecting the live feed (call for hot water) from the programmer.
Classico (STD/STI) models have magnesium anodes provided to prevent corrosion of the cylinder tank.
All
High Capacity (STD/STI) 500 litre models, Wall-hung (ST) units and the
Contract (STD/STI) Floor-standing models utilise the ProTech anti-corrosion
system (electronic anode).
The factory fitted temperature & pressure relief valve at the top of the cylinder is a safety device to back-up the thermostat(s) and thermal cut­out(s). It works by sensing an excess in water temperature or pressure and releasing the hot water into a discharge tundish and drain. The cylinder will only work in the vertical position. The inlet pipe needs to deliver cold water to the bottom of the tank. When water is heated it expands. To accommodate this increase in volume an expansion vessel is provided. A cold water combination valve is also provided in two pieces, loose jointed for ease of installation. These comprise a combined line strainer/pressure reducing valve and core non-return valve/expansion relief valve. The strainer prevents any debris entering the other controls. The pressure reducer ensures the correct operation of the expansion vessel, and prevents any damage to the control valves through too great a pressure. The non-return valve ensures the water expansion is forced into the e
xpansion v
essel and pre
v
ents contamination of the mains cold w
ater
supply
.
The e
xpansion relief v
alv
e will discharge e
xpanded w
ater to the
discharge tundish if the e
xpansion vessel fails.

It is important to ensure that the cold water main is capable of supplying the increased demand which will be imposed on it.
Hot and cold w
ater are both drawn off the same source of supply. Remember, there will not be a storage tank to help compensate for variations in the demand on the system. A minim
um pressure of appro
ximately 1.5 bar and 20 litres per min
ute is
required f
or satisf
actor
y oper
ation.
85% of UK dw
ellings ha
ve a mains
pressure above 2.0 bar.
NOTE:
THE MAINS
W
A
TER SUPPL
Y MUST NOT EXCEED 16 BAR.
The cylinder should be left pac
k
ed until it is time to install.
When unpacking the appliance follow the guidelines within the packaging and take care not to damage the temperature and pressure relief valve. The cylinder ma
y be installed at any convenient position, as it is connected to the mains cold water supply, it is equally effective on any floor, however, consideration must be given to allow ease of access for maintenance purposes. Ho
w
e
ver, do not install the unit in premises which may be subject to freezing. Ensure that the floor load bearing strength is adequate to take the weight of the cylinder when full of water (see
TABLE 1).
The ST50, ST80 and ST100 ProT
ech
models are w
all mounted. All other models are free standing. These are supplied with feet which are attached to the heater via self-tapping screws which are also supplied. All units must be installed in the VERTICAL POSITION. For maintenance purposes leave at least 500 mm free space in front of the unit, for access.

The cold w
ater combination valve can be connected either close by
the unit or alter
natively it may be installed in a remote position from the unit as there is no requirement to site it in close proximity to the cylinder. This allows a flexible and convenient installation. However, it is important to note allowances for the discharge pipe work from the e
xpansion relief valve must be accounted for.
A balancing port is supplied on the 22mm valves (for units above 50 litres) and 28mm valves (for 500 litres units) allowing balanced cold water supply to the rest of the building giving constant results for mixer and shower valves. If the facility is not needed a plug is supplied. Refer to
FIG. 2.7 and FIG. 2.8
Although this facility is not built into the 15mm valve (supplied with model ST50), a tee piece may be inserted between the two components giving the same result. Refer to

2.9 CONNECTION TO SERVICES
It is recommended that a 22mm pipe run should supply the outlets throughout the b
uilding, especially to baths and showers. Short runs of
15mm pipe may be used to connect basins and sinks.
On floor-standing models a secondary return may be fitted (consult the label on the face of the unit for the correct location). A non-return valve (not supplied) m
ust be fitted to prevent back flow and a bronze pump will be
needed in conjunction with a pipe ther
mostat to circulate the hot water (both
not supplied). NOTE: an extra expansion vessel may be required where the additional volume of the secondary return exceeds the capacity of the expansion vessel supplied.
NOTE! THE SAFETY RELIEF VALVES MUST NOT BE USED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE
1) The tundish must be vertical and fitted within 500mm of the temperature & pressure relief valve and must be located with the cylinder. The tundish must also be in a position visible to the occupants, and positioned away from any electrical devices. The discharge pipe from the tundish should terminate in a safe place where there is no risk to persons in the vicinity of the discharge and to be of metal.
2) Discharge pipes from the temperature & pressure relief and expansion relief valve may be joined together.
3) The pipe diameter must be at least one pipe size larger than the nominal outlet size of the safety device unless it's total equivalent hydraulic resistance exceeds that of a straight pipe 9m long. I.e. Discharge pipes between 9m and 18m equivalent resistance length should be at least 2 sizes larger than the nominal outlet size of the safety device. Between 18m and 27m at least 3 larger, and so on. Bends must be taken into account in calculating the flow resistance. See
FIG. 2.9 and TABLE 2.
4) The discharge pipe must have a vertical section of pipe at least 300mm in length, below the tundish before any elbows or bends in the pipework.
5)
The discharge pipe must be installed with a continuous fall.
6) The discharge must be visible at both the tundish and the final point of discharge, but where this is not possible or practically difficult; there should be clear visibility at one or other of these locations. Examples of acceptance are:
i) Ideally below a fixed grating and above the water seal in a trapped
gully.
ii) Downward discharges at a low level; i.e. up to 100mm above
external surfaces such as car parks, hard standings, grassed areas etc. These are acceptable providing that where children may play or otherwise come into contact with discharges, a wire cage or similar guard is positioned to prevent contact, whilst maintaining visibility.
iii) Discharges at high level; I.e. into a metal hopper and metal down
pipe with the end of the discharge pipe clear

le (tundish
visib
le or not).
Or onto a roof capab
le of withstanding high
temper
ature discharges of w

WARNINGS
The outlet from the temper
ature & pressure relief valve must not be used for any other purpose. This also applies to the expansion relief valve. No other valve is to be fitted between the cold water combination valve and the cylinder.
The temper
ature & pressure relief valve must not be removed in any
circumstances. Any of the above will totally invalidate the guarantee.
2.12 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The electrical installation must be in accordance with the current I.E.E. wiring regulations.
PROTECH ELECTRONIC ANTI-CORROSION SYSTEM IMPORTANT: The ProTech anti-corrosion system MUST be permanently connected to a 240V electricity supply see FIG 2.10.

prevent risk to the appliance’s lifespan when disconnecting the protection system f
or an extended period of time, it is necessary to drain the appliance beforehand. In addition to the 240V netw
ork, the electronic circuit is also connected to
the tank, which is to be protected, and to the titanium protection electrode,
INFORMATION FOR THE END USER
Proper operation of the protection system is shown by a continuous green L.E.D
, indicating that the circuits terminals are being supplied with electricity.
In the e
vent of failure, a red L.E.D. indicates that there is a short-circuit between the electrode and the cylinder tank, that one of the leads (tank or electrode) is disconnected or that there is no water in the cylinder. Your appliance is thus properly protected when the green L.E.D. is illuminated and the red L.E.D. is off. Should this not be the case, please contact your installer.
FITTING IMMERSION HEATER(S) (100 - 300 litre foor standing only)
These are supplied with but not fitted to 100 - 300 floor-standing models. A sealing gasket is supplied with each element, however the use of a suitable sealing compound is recommended to ensure a correct seal. Care must be taken not to cross thread the immersion heater(s) when fitting. Each immersion heater is supplied with a regulation thermostat and manual reset thermal cut-out. This will activate if the regulation thermostat fails. Under no circumstances should this be by-passed. The immersion heaters supplied are rated at 3kW, there are 4kW upgrade kits available on request, (the part number for which is 925392). Should the immersion heater(s) be ugraded to the 4kW immersion, the electrical circuit and fuse must be checked to ensure suitability with the higher output. Although the immersion heaters are a standard 2
1
/4” thread, they must not be substituted with anything but an
original Ariston spare part.
NOTE! T
HE IMMERSION HEATERS MUST NOT BE FITTED WITHOUT THE THERMOSTAT/THERMAL
CUT
-OUT.
DIRECT SYSTEMS
A mains supply of 240V, 3kW (13 amps) is required. Heat resistant cable, round 3 or 4 core 2.5mm2(to BS6141 table 8) must be used to connect the electrical supply through the Economy 7 time control switch using either system ‘A’ or ‘B’ as illustrated in

The ther
mostat(s) on the immersion heater(s) should be adjusted to tr
ip at 60°C. This is the ideal temperature to prolong element life in hard water areas. Scale on the sheath builds up more rapidly at temperatures above this causing the element to overheat and premature failure can occur. Higher temper
atures without additional controls w
ould result in scalding.
In addition to the thermostat the thermal cut-out will switch power off to the element should the ther
mostat malfunction, causing an excessive rise in water temperature. The thermal cut-out can be reset manually after the fault has been corrected.

4.4 UNVENTED CONTROLS
4. MAINTENANCE
To ensure efficient safe operation, it is recommended that the appliance is serviced annually by a competent person.
After servicing, preliminary electrical system checks must be carried out to ensure electrical safety (i.e. polarity, earth continuity, resistance to earth and short circuit).
W
ARNING:
SWITCH OFF
THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE WORKING ON
THE APPLIANCE.
Trouble-shooting:
1) The green L.E.D. is NOT on:
- Check to see that the circuits electric plug is connected (if not, connect);
- Check to see that the P.C.B, is supplied with electricity (if not, replace the supply cab
le);
- Check to see that 230 V electricity is supplied (if not, ensure that 230 V is supplied);
- If all these checks fail to locate the problem, replace the electronic circuit (installer).
2) The red L.E.D. is on:
- Check to see that the tank is filled with water (if not, fill it before carrying out the following checks);
- Check to see that the clip-on circuit connector is in the proper position (if not, position correctly);
- Check to see that the electrodes connection lead is property connected (to check this, gently pull on it) (if not, replace the electrode);
- Check to see that the connection lead to the tank is properly connected to the tank (if not, connect properly); .
- Check to see that the two leads from the clip-on circuit connector are not damaged, stripped, etc. (if so, replace the electrode);
- If all these checks fail to locate the problem, replace the electronic circuit.
NOTE: To replace the P.C.B, there is no need to drain the cylinder;
1) Disconnect the two supply cables from the P.C.B. to the supply terminal;
2) Disconnect the clip-on circuit connector and polarising slot which connects the circuit to the tank and the electrode;
3) Disconnect the P.C.B. from its supporting plate (plastic clips in the 4 cor
ners) and;
4) Replace the defective circuit with a new one, then re-install in reverse order to the abo
v
e.
If the thermal cut-out has operated the cause must be found before resetting (see section 5).
Should the immersion heater(s) become scaled, we would recommend that the immersion heaters be replaced, also ensure that the ther
mostat is set
below 60
O
C to prevent further scale formation.
Check controls as per the following:
1) Line strainer - with the water supply turned off remove screen from strainer and clean of any detritus;
2)
Expansion v
essel - with the w
ater supply tur
ned off and taps open, check
expansion vessel pressure and top up as necessary;
3) Temperature & pressure relief valve - with the water supply turned on, chec
k man
ually by lifting the test lever/turning the test knob (ensure valve
closes after testing)
