2.1Safety instructions

DANGER

If you smell gas:

1. Do not use a naked flame, do not smoke, do not operate electrical contacts or switches ( doorbell, light, motor, lift, etc..).

2. Shut off the gas supply.

3. Open the windows.

4. Evacuate the premises.

5. Call your fitter.

DANGER

If you smell flue gases:

1. Switch the appliance off.

2. Open the windows.

3. Evacuate the premises.

4. Call your fitter.

WARNING

Depending on the settings of the appliance:

4 The temperature of the flue gas conduits may exceed 60°C.

4 The temperature of the radiators may reach 85°C.

4 The temperature of the domestic hot water may reach 65°C.

CAUTION

Do not neglect to service the appliance:

4 For completely safe and optimum operation, you must have your boiler regularly serviced by an approved installer.

3Description

3.1Operating principle

3.1.1.Gas/air setting

The casing fitted to the boiler is also used as an air box. Air is sucked in by the fan and gas injected into the venturi by the fan intake. The fan rotation speed is set according to the settings parameters, the thermal energy requirement and the temperatures measured by the temperature sensors. The gas and air are mixed in the venturi. The gas/air ratio ensures that the quantities of gas and air are adjusted to each other. This provides optimum combustion on the entire output range. The gas/air mixture is fed into the burner on top of the exchanger.

3.1.2.Combustion

The burner heats the heating water circulating in the heat exchanger. At a return temperature lower than around 55°C, the flue gases cool down to a temperature lower than the dew point, thus causing the condensation of the water vapour contained in the flue gases in the back side of the heat exchanger. The heat released during this condensation process (the latent heat or condensing heat) is also transferred to the heating water. The cooled combustion gases are evacuated via the combustion gas outlet flue. The condensation water is evacuated via a siphon.

3.1.3.Heating and domestic hot water production

An integrated plate exchanger handles domestic hot water production. A 3-way valve determines whether the heated water is fed into the heating system or the plate exchanger. A DHW sensor signals domestic hot water demands. This signal is transmitted to the control panel, which then switches the 3-way valve to the hot water position and trips the heating pump. The 3-way valve is spring-loaded but only consumes electricity when it switches to another position.

The heating water reheats the domestic water in the plate exchanger. This water is pumped into the boiler tank to provide a constant plentiful supply of domestic hot water. In comfort mode, if no domestic hot water is drawn off, the boiler reheats the plate exchanger and the boiler tank at regular intervals. Any limescale particles are kept out of the plate exchanger by a self-cleaning water filter (selfcleans once every 76 hours).
