Examples of systems which require a
bypass are:-
a) A system controlled by non-electrical
valves e.g. mechanical thermostatic control
valves both on the radiators and the hot
water circuit.
b) A system using twin zone valves (e.g.
Honeywell 'S' Plan) (Fig. 3).
c) A system using a 3 port divertor valve
(Fig. 4) does not normally require a bypass
therefore this system is recommended. The
exception to this is where thermostatic
radiator valves are used and then a bypass
is required.
The bypass circuit can be:-
a) For 30/40/50 PF a minimum of 8 metres
of 22mm pipe, for 60/70/80 PF a minimum
of 8 metres of 28mm pipe (measured
between the boiler flow and return
connections). It should be fitted with a lock
shield valve opened at least 1 full turn to
give a minimum flow rate of 8 litres/min (1.8
gal/min) (Option C, Fig. 1 & Option A,
Fig.2).
b) A radiator fitted with lock shield valves.
The radiator output should be a minimum of
800 watts (2,700 Btu/h). Typically a
convector type radiator with an area of
3750 cm
2
(4 sq ft) is adequate (Option B,
Fig. 1).
c) Any circuit that provides the same
operating conditions as option A or option B
(Figs. 1 & 2).
3.1 Water Circulating Systems
1. The appliance is suitable for use with open
vent fully pumped systems, sealed systems and
where additional control protection is required.
The following conditions should be observed
on all systems:
• The static head must not exceed 30m (100ft) of
water.
• The boiler must not be used with a direct cylinder.
• The boiler is fitted with a timed pump overrun that
will operate for approximately 8 minutes.
• Drain cocks should be fitted to all system low
points.
• All gas and water pipes and electrical wiring must
be installed in a way which would not restrict the
servicing of the boiler.
• Position isolating valves as close to circulating
pump as possible.
Treatment of Water Circulating Systems
• All recirculatory water systems will be subject to
corrosion unless an appropriate water treatment is
applied. This means that the efficiency of the system
will deteriorate as corrosion sludge accumulates
within the system, risking damage to pump and
valves, boiler noise and circulation problems.
• For optimum performance after installation this
boiler and its associated central heating system
must be flushed in accordance with the guidelines
given in BS 5793:1992 “Treatment of water in
domestic hot water central heating systems”.
• This must involve the use of a proprietary
cleanser, such as BetzDearborn Sentinel X300 or
X400, or Fernox Superfloc. Full instructions are
supplied with the products, but for immediate
information please contact BetzDearborn (0151 420
9563) or Fernox (01799 550 811) directly.
• For long term protection against corrosion and
scale, after flushing it is recommended that an
inhibitor such as BetzDearborn Sentinel X100, or
Fernox MB-1 or Copal is dosed in accordance with
the guidelines given in BS 5793:1992.
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system
may invalidate the appliance warranty.
• It is important to check the inhibitor concentration
after installation, system modification and at every
service in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions. (Test kits are available from inhibitor
stockists.)
• For information or advice regarding any of the
above contact the Baxi Helpline.
3.2 Bypass Requirements
1. The boiler is fitted with a pump overrun device
which allows the removal of residual heat from
the boiler.
NOTE: The pump overrun will operate for
approximately 8 minutes. The system design
must therefore, always provide an open circuit for
water to circulate between the boiler flow and
return.
3.0 System Details
8
3.3 Pipework
1. The sizes of flow and return pipes from the
boiler should be determined by normal methods,
according to the requirements of the system.
2. An 11 °C (20°F) drop in temperature across the
system is recommended.
3.4 System Controls
1. For optimum operating conditions, the heating
system into which the boiler is installed should
include a control system.
2. Such a system will comprise of a timer control
and separate room or cylinder thermostats as
appropriate.
3. The boiler should be controlled so that it
operates on demand only.
4. Operation of the system under control of the
boiler thermostat only does not produce the best
results.
5. A frost thermostat is fitted integrally to the
appliance controls and will protect the boiler from
frost damage by operating the burner when the
water temperature in the boiler drops towards
freezing point. The boiler will fire as necessary to
maintain a temperature above freezing.
NOTE: The frost thermostat operates even if
the boiler thermostat is in the OFF ('0') position
and it is necessary therefore, if the system is
drained, for the external electrical and gas
supplies to be isolated. It is recommended that
a label be affixed to the appliance to draw
attention to the fact that the system has been
drained.
3.5 Low Head Installation
For boilers up to 50,000 Btu/h output
1. Using a close couple arrangement the minimum
head is as shown in the diagrams (Figs. 5 & 6)
subject to the following conditions:
a) The correct heat input.
b) The pump being adjusted to give an 11
o
C
drop across the boiler.
c) The pump must be fitted on the flow.
d) The pump must be fitted in accordance with
the pump manufacturer's instructions.
e) The open vent pipe must be taken up from a
tee in a horizontal section of the flow pipe.
Alternative Low Head Installation for all Solo 2 PF
(Fig. 7)
2. If less height is available then a combined vent
and feed pipe may be connected. This must be a
minimum of 22mm diameter. It is recommended
that an air separator is fitted when using a
combined feed and vent pipe.
