2. INTRODUCTION
The flow-through electric boiler ECOTERMAL is a modern ecological source of heat
designated for story and central heating of small and average size houses and production
facilities. The main advantages of heating with electric power are mostly cost effectiveness,
high efficiency, environmental friendliness and compactness. Electric boiler can be used in
every system of central or story (local) heating in a direct, accumulating or hybrid system. It
can be integrated also in existing heating systems, in parallel with solid fuel boiler (exemplary
diagrams are shown on Fig. 1 and 2, page 6). It is recommended for safer operation the
electric boilers to be mounted in systems operating with a pump securing enforced circulation
of the heat medium.

3. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE BOILER
Structure of the electric boiler/ module, see Fig. 3 page 7, Fig. 4 page 8, Fig. 5 page 9, Fig.
6 page 10.
Equipment of the boilers’ models is shown in Tab. 6 page 15.
Technical data and technical characteristics of the electric boiler/module, see Tab. 1, 2, 3
and Tab. 4 page 14, and Tab 5 page 15.
4. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The control system performs its functions by effecting on two of the components of the water
heating: the heaters and the circulation pump
There are two main operating modes:
- Boiler Temperature Control Operating Mode
Each electrical boiler/module contains temperature controller. The temperature set-point value
can be adjusted between 30°C and 90°C. Upon reach of the setpoint, the temperature
controller switches off the heaters. When the temperature of the boiler’s water goes below the
set point, the heaters are switched back on. The temperature overheat protection is provided
by a blocking /emergency/ thermostat. If there is a temperature rise up to 105° C, caused by
any reason, the blocking thermostat turns off the heaters and ALARM message is displayed.
The thermostat must be switched back to normal operating mode only by authorized service
engineer, who has to provide detection and removal of the fault causing the thermostat switch
off.
- Room Temperature Control Operating Mode
The room temperature controller is installed in the premise where you need the temperature to
be precisely controlled. The control unit is installed in the boiler. When the set room
temperature is above the current temperature of the premise, the heater and the circulating
pump are switched on. Upon reach of the set room temperature, the controller switches off the
heater and the pump. The power of the boiler is calculated such that at the lowest environment
temperature for the region it could provide room temperature of 25° C.
Number of comutation:
6 to 60 kW - two-levels
This principle of control does not allow major amplitude in water temperature in the boiler
body in the established mode of work.
Models from 6 to 60 kW can bind to the ON / OFF room thermo regulator (see Fig.8 page12).
5. OPERATION MANUAL
- The customer has to provide water supply and electricity to the installation.
- The customer monitors for leaks and controls the operating pressure in the system.
- Adjust the boiler or room temperature depending on the operating principle of the
installation and personal preferences.
- Upon departure from the parameters calls to authorized service.
- The service is performed by specialists familiar with the structure, management and
operation of the device.
- When the electric power stops and restores again, the electric boiler automatically starts
again.

6. CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRIC NETWORK
- Connecting the electric switchboard to the power supply network and the boiler electric
installation assembly should be carried out only by an expert with the necessary qualification.
The power supply is connected through not severable joint according to the connection
diagram. The cross-section of the power supply cable should be selected in accordance with
the boiler power (see table 4 page 14).
7. COMMISSIONING
Boiler’s startup is possible after performed control on the good working order of:
- the connections to the heating system,
- checking of the system pressure,
- checking of the electrical connections,
- checking whether the valves and taps of the heating system are opened,
- switch on the automatic fuse of the electric boiler,
- preset the desired temperature of the boiler and the room thermo regulator.
Servicing of the room thermo regulator is done according to the instructions thereto.
The heating systems may be filled in only by water or mixture of water and antifreeze.
8. CONDITIONS OF COMMISSIONING AND UNDERTAKING GUARANTEE
MAINTENANCE – GENERAL TERMS:
The electrical boiler/module is mounted with the help of consoles only on a wall that can bear
its weight. The boiler location should be selected in a manner to secure access – technological
tolerance from its all four sides is shown on Fig. 9 and 10 at page 13.
1. The boiler/module should be mounted at a place suitable for servicing (free access
thereto) and possibility of opening the front lid.
2. The boiler/module should be mounted suspended on the wall at minimum height of 1
m of the floor.
3. Water filter should be mounted at the cold water intake before the pump by observing
the direction marked on the filter itself (boiler fixture), in accordance with the attached
manufacturer’s instructions.
4. The boiler/module should not be contaminated with building materials.
5. Fitting connections should be mounted on the boiler/module intake and the outlet.
6. Hydraulic test should be carried out at an index of 1.25 above the operating pressure.
7. Upon assembly, it is necessary the adjustments of the boiler and the blocking
thermostats to be checked up. The actual control is done during the warm test.
8. The guarantee shall be effective as from the commissioning date, but not later than six
months as from the date of the purchase.
