INSTALLATION OF THE MAX’O GAZ
MAX’O GAZ requires the installation of gas ( or LPG), water and electricity supplies which
must be provided by currently qualified installers. Relevant CE and BS requirements and local
regulation must be observed.
(Atlantic 2000 welcomes any queries at any time on 0161-621-5960)
1) LOCATION
MAX’O GAZ must be located on a hard standing and preferably a concrete base
extending at least 50mm beyond the unit on all sides
The most economic route should be selected for the evacuation of flue gases with
consideration for nuisance at the exit point from the building and for the trapped
drainage of condensate.
(See advice in the section on products of combustion).
Preferably, an access of 500mm should be allowed on the sides and rear of MAX’O
GAZ. Access at the front, to allow for burner withdrawal, should be 1500mm.
(Discuss restricted access with Atlantic 2000 on 0161-621-5960)
2) COLD WATER CONNECTION
Cold water supply should be connected to MAX’O GAZ in approved materials.
On a main cold water supply connection, an unvented kit is necessary and is offered
with the unit. This consists of a ball valve, a high capacity strainer, a pressure
regulating valve with manometer, a non return valve and one or two expansion vessels
fitted into the cold water supply line. In addition, a combined temperature/pressure
relief valve is supplied for fitting in the MAX’O GAZ storage vessel or DHW flow
outlet.
On a tank cold water supply connection, two ball valves and a high capacity strainer is
recommended.
On both types of connection, a mounting pack is recommended and will consist of a
pressure relief valve, a high capacity automatic air eliminator, an anti-vacuum plug and
a drain valve. The installation of unions is recommended to ease the cleaning of filters
and working equipment.

3) DOMESTIC HOT WATER FLOW CONNECTION
Hot water supply should be connected to MAX’O GAZ in approved materials.
On the MAX’O GAZ hot water outlet of a mains cold water s ystem, the combined
temperature/pressure relief valve may be fitted. Then a full-bore tee should be installed
to take the high capacity automatic air eliminator with isolating ball valve.
These items should be isolated together with the MAX’O GAZ storage vessel and
fitted with a union to allow future access for maintenance.
On the MAX’O GAZ hot water outlet of a tank cold water system, a pressure relief
valve must be fitted. Then a full-bore tee should be installed to take an open vent pipe
leading over the cold water tank.
4) DOMESTIC HOT WATER RETURN CONNECTION
A hot water return connection is provided in the MAX’O GAZ. It must not be used as a
cold water inlet
In a hot water pumped circulation system, the return will include a ball valve, a strainer,
the pump, a non return valve, a ball valve and a thermometer; then a connection to the
MAX’O GAZ vessel with a union.
In a hot water system without circulation, a blending valve and thermometer should be
considered in an arrangement to mix the hot water flow with the cold water feed.
5) RELIEF VALVES
Do not connect pipework directly to the relief outlet. Leave an air gap leading to a
tundish, enabling relief water to be visually noted.
6) CONDENSATE DRAIN
MAX’O GAZ is a high efficiency condensing wate r heater. The condensing starts to
occur in the combustion gases as they pass down the vertical heat exchanger tubes, and
the condensate collects in the flue gases chamber and outlet. This must be drained away
to a gulley or drain using rigid PVC tube resistant to 60ºC temperature and running at a
slope 2-3º. Copper pipe should not be used,
PO Box 11 Ashton Under Lyne OL6 7TR
+44. (0) 161 621 5960 Fax +44. (0) 161 621 5966
www.atlanticboilers.com
Page 10
10
Additional condensing will occur in the flue exhaust system and this may be separately
drained through its own trap to the same gulley or drain. Normally, 20 mm or 32mm
PVC tube will carry the condensate flow.
IMPORTANT
Never fire the MAX’O GAZ burner without water in the water store.
Never fire the MAX’O GAZ without open cold and hot water connections.
Never plug off the relief valve outlets.
Never over-ride the control system, without knowledge.

THE GAS PIPEWORK CONNECTIONS
The size of the gas pipework to the boilers should be chosen to ensure the necessary minimum pressure for the nominal required flow
rate at the upstream entry point of the gas train.
The diameter of the pipe lines will be calculated as a function of the allowed pressure drop, the length of the pipework distribution &
the number of fittings in the distribution.
There are a number of ways of carrying out these calculations and the attached is based on C.P. 331 1974.
Discharge in a straight horizontal steel pipe (to table 2, medium, of BS 1387:1967) with 1m.bar 0.4 in w.g. differential
pressure between the ends, for gas of relative density 0.6 (air=1)

The effects of elbows, tees or bends inserted in a run of pipe (expressed as
the approximate additional lengths to be allowed)
To make use of the tables on pages 14 and 15 the run of gas pipework from the meter to
the water heater must first be decided. Then, the length of the run (or the longest run
when more than one water heater is installed) is measured together with the numbers of
elbows and/or bends and tees counted.
The gas flow requirements of the water heaters are taken from the table on page 6. The
pipe size of the run, or the main part of the run for several water heaters, is assessed from
the tables on pages 14 and 15.
The effect of the fittings is then taken, from that pipe size, out of the tables on page…
The whole run is the re-checked for this size to ensure the overall pressure drop from the
meter to the water heater is within the prescribed limit. If several water heaters are
involved, the prescribed limit is proportioned over the different lengths of pipe with
different flow rates.
If you have any queries concerning the gas pipe work,

During the first starting, the burner may switch to safety position
because of any air remaining in the line.
SAFETY CHECKINGS
- Close the gas supply, the burner gas valve should close almost
instantly and the burner will stop without moving onto the lock-out
position
- Open the gas supply again, a new cycle will occur: ventilation of the
combustion chamber, ignition, and gas valve opening.
- Unplugging the ionization probe, the gas valve will close within 5
seconds, a new starting cycle occurs: ventilation, ignition, valve
opening, then the burner switches to the lock-out position.
15) While the burner is working, check the Pack Control temperature
a. If the temperature is different than the one required, adjust it
16) During the first fire, check that all the elements of control and safety are
working correctly
17) Do a combustion analysis and if needed, adjust the burner setting
18) After the first start and stop of the burner, check that all the pipe work remains
air and gas tight
19) The anti-legionnella pump will start when the hot water temperature is 10ºC
below the control temperature
PRECAUTION TO PREVENT FROST
Switching off the water heater
1) Switch the electricity supply off
2) Close the gas valve
3) Close the Max’o gaz water supply valve

THE COMMISSIONING OF THE MAX’O GAZ
All Atlantic boilers and water heaters are thoroughly tested for mechanical, electrical and
combustion performance at the factory. The combustion performance tests are based on
gas equivalent to the North Sea natural gas provided by British Gas and at low pressures
normally supplied. The test takes up to two hours and the results are recorded.
The prime object of the site commissioning of the water heater(s) is, subject to installed
conditions, to match the optimum combustion performance results reached at the factory
and to ensure the water heater(s) is/are installed according to the conditions of guarantee.
The following check list should be satisfied before the commissioning takes place. To
arrange the commissioning Atlantic should be given a minimum of ten days notice of the
date and time required.
