DOMINA N 80 DGT
1. DESCRIPTION
1.01 Introduction
The DominaN 80 DGT is defi ned as a “room sealed” combination boiler, all air required for combustion is taken from
outside the room in which it is installed. It is a new high performance gas fi red heat generator for central heating and
domestic hot water production. A special feature of this boiler is its built-in electr onic fl ame ignition and control unit
making burner operation completely automatic and safe. The main components are as follows:
• Copper heat exchanger consisting of three fi nned tubes specifi cally shaped for high effi ciency.
• There are three copper coils inserted in the three heating circuit tubes. These represent the domestic
hot water heat exchanger. Their shape and high exchange surface area enable the full output of the
boiler to be absorbed.
• Ceramic fi bre insulated combustion chamber
• 12 stainless steel bladed burners specifi cally designed for this boiler.
• Fan for discharge of combustion products and intake of combustion air.
• Differential air pressur e switch. For safety reasons, this ensures the burner ignites only when the fan is functioning correctly.
• Hermetically sealed compartment made from corrosion-resistant steel enclosing the above components.
• Combination gas safety valve with modulator, complete with pressure stabiliser.
• Flowmeter giving the domestic hot water circuit precedence over the central heating circuit.
• Pressure relief valve for the central heating circuit set to open at 3 bar.
• Built-in Expansion vessel.
• Variable speed pump.
• Central heating fl ow temperature adjustment thermostat.
• Domestic hot water fl ow temperature adjustment thermostat.
• Central heating limit thermostat.
• Overheat safety thermostat.
• Electronic control unit for automatic fl ame ignition and control.
• Central heating low water pressure cut off switch.
• Domestic hot water fl ow temperature sensor.
• Central heating fl ow temperature sensor.

N.B. - The gas pressures at the burner and gas fl ows during the central heatingphase given in the table refer
to nominal boiler output. To reduce this output (where necessary), gas pressure must be reduced until the
required output level is reached (see fi gures 4 and 5).
During domestic hot water production, gas pressures to the burner must correspondtothe maximum
output given in table for the type of gas.
Gas pressure must be adjusted during maximum draw-off of domestic hot water.

2.04 Central heating adjustment (not normally required)
To adjust boiler heat input (thus also regulating heat output to the central heating water) simply adjust the main
burner via the electronic control board (fi g. 4 and 5 and see paragraph 5.04 page 29).
The diagrams indicate the variation in heat output to the water as burner working pressure is varied.
Adjusting boiler output to the actual requirements o f the central heating system will minimise boiler cycling thus saving
fuel, varying the output has virtually no effect on the effi ciency and combustion characteristics of the boiler.

3.INSTALLATION DETAILS
Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations: 1996
In the interest of safety, it is the law that all gas appliances are installed by a competent person in accordance
with the above Regulations, Building Regulations/Building Standards Scotland, Codes of Practice, current I.E.E.
Regulations and the byelaws of the Local Water Undertaking. Failure to comply with the Regulations may lead to
prosecution; it is your responsibility to ensure that the law is complied with.
N.B. For Northern Ireland the rules in force apply.
Important - If the boiler is to be fi tted in a timber framedbuilding it shouldbe fi tted in accordance with the Institute of
Gas Engineers document IGE/UP/7. If in doubt advice should be sought from the Local Supplier.
Location of Boiler
The installation of the Domina N80 DGT must be on a suitable non-combustible load bearing wall which
will provide an adequate fi xing for the boiler mounting bracket assembly. The location should be in an
area where the water pipes will not be subjected to frost conditions. In siting the combination boiler the
followinglimitations mustbe observed:
The combination boiler may be installed in any room or internal space, although particular attention is drawn
to the requirements of the current I.E.E.wiring regulations and in Scotland the electrical provisions of the
building regulations applicable in Scotland, with respect to the installation of the combination boiler in a room
or internal space containing a bath or shower.
Where a room sealed appliance is installed in a roomcontaining a bath or shower any electrical switch
or appliance control utilising mains electricity must be situated so that it cannot be touched by a person using the bath or shower.
Air Supply
The room or compartment in which the boiler is installeddoes not require a purpose providedvent when
using the standard concentric fl ue.
Flue System
The boiler allows the fl ue outlet to be taken from the rear of the boiler, from either side or vertically.
A standard fl ue length of 0.75metres is provided. Alternative lengths of two or three metres can be supplied
(equivalent to wall thicknesses of up to 565, 1815 and 2815mm for rear fl ues, deduct 91mmplus distance from side
wall for side outlet fl ues). It is absolutely essential, to ensure that products of combustion discharging from the
terminal cannot re-enter the building, or enter any adjacent building, through ventilations, windows, doors,
natural air infi ltration or forced ventilation/air conditioning.
Gas Supply
If necessary the local Gas supplier shouldbe consulted, at the installation planning stage, in order to establish
the availability of an adequate supply of gas.
An existing service pipe must notbe usedwithout prior consultation with the LocalGas supplier.
A gas meter can only be connectedby the LocalGas supplier, or by a LocalGas suppliers Contractor.
Installation pipes shouldbe fi tted in accordance with BS6891-1988.
Appliance inlet working pressure must be 20mbar MINIMUM, for NG and 37 mbar minimum for LPG.
Pipework from the meter to the combination boiler must be of an adequate size.
The boiler requires 2.73m3/h of natural gas, and 2,00 kg/h of LPG.
Do not use pipes of a smaller size than the combination boiler inlet gas connection.
The complete installation must be tested for gas soundness andpurged as described in BS6981-1988. All pipework
must be adequately supported. An isolating gas valve is provided and should be fi tted on the boiler gas inlet.
Please wait 10 minutes when lighting from cold before checking gas rate. Gas pressures shouldbe checked after
the boilerhas operated for 10minutes to reach thermal equilibrium.
Water System
Note - the boiler is designed for sealed systems only andmust NOT be used on open vented systems.
9
DOMINA N 80 DGT
Central Heating
Detailed recommendations are given in BS6798, BS5449, BS6700 and CP342 Part 2. Pipework not forming part of
the useful heating surface should be insulated to prevent any heat losses or possible freezing (i.e. in roof spaces
or ventilated underfl oor spaces). Drain taps should be positioned at the lowest point of the system in accessible
locations to permit the whole system to be drained down. The drain taps should be in accordance with
BS2879. C opper tubing to BS2871, Part 1 is recommended for water carrying pipework. Pipework in
horizontal runs should have a gradient where possible to facilitate the removal of air. Ensure that the
boiler heat exchanger is not a natural point for air collection. A typical heating system with domestic
hot water circuit is illustrated in fi g. 9.
Important - If thermostatic radiator vales are fi tted a bypassmust be fi tted to ensure a minimumfl ow rate through
the boiler of6 l/min. The bypass should be fi tted as far as possible from the boiler.
Make Up Water
Provision must be made for replacing water lost from the sealed system. Reference should be made to BS6798,
for methods of fi lling and making up sealed systems. There must be no direct connection between the boiler's
central heating system and the mains water supply. The use of mains water to charge and pressurise the system
directly, is conditional upon the Local Water Byelaws. Again any such connection must be disconnected after use.
A typical temporary fi lling loop is shown in fi g. 10.
Domestic Hot Water
Always fi t a scale reducer in "hard water areas" (18 clarke degrees or over)". A 15mm copper connection point
on the boiler for attaching to the main supply is provided. The maximum domestic water pressure for the
inlet supply is 10 bar (145P.S.I.). If the cold mains supply exceeds5 bar (72 P.S.I.), a water governor or pressure reducing valve must be fi tted by the installer into the mains supply in an inconspicuous but
accessible position preferable between 3 and 5 metres (10-16ft) before the appliance. Such a valve must
be approved by the Water Research Council.
Attention - is drawn to the Model Water Byelaws.
Fittings manufactured from duplex (alpha-beta) brass are not acceptable for underground use and certain water
undertakings will not accept their use above ground.
Ensure all pipework is adequately supported
NOTE: A bypass that will ensure a minimum fl ow rate of
6 l/min. at all all time must be fi tted as far as possible
Gas
from the boiler if thermostatic radiator valves are fi tted
thoughout.

CHOICE OF RESTRICTOR:
•With 2 pipe system:
- Calculate the total fl ow resistance of the air and
fl ue pipes in metres (cap. 3.08.2)
- utilise the table shown below to choose the more
suitable restrictor for the fl ow resistance calculated
A vertical connector can be supplied for vertical
discharge with concentric pipes.
The simple mounting and use of double lip gaskets
at the joints makes this an extremely easy and safe
option.
For fl ue length up to 1 m long the 50 mmØ restrictor is
required. Longer than this no restrictor is required.

Notes on concentric horizontal installation
To locate the centre of the hole for passing the
pipes through the wall, refer to fi g. 15. Bear in
mind that the two concentric pipes must slope
downwards away from the boiler at a rate of
about 3 mm/m to avoid rainwater entering the
boiler. The concentric pipes making up the air
- fl ue gas duct must be sealed with the gasket
where they join the boiler (fi g. 21). Outside, the
pipes should protrude from the wall between 10
and 60 mm (fi g. 21).

A varied number of accessories for two pipe systems are available from Ferroli (ref. to page 22). Before
installing your system please check via calculation table at 3.08.2 you are not exceeding the maximum
permissible length for the appliance.
Notes on two pipe system installation:
When using the two pipe system the fl ue discharge pipe must have a 25mm air gap when passing through
combustible materials.
Where the fl ue discharge pipe passes through the airing space of an airing cupboard it must be protected by a non
combustible guard or expanded metal giving an annular air gap of at least 25mm.
Where the fl ue discharge pipe passes through a wall containing cavity insulation, a non combustible sleeve must
be fi tted. Additionally a gap of 25mm between the sleeve and the insulation should be provided by cutting back
the insulation or packing loose fi ll bead insulation with mineral fi bre.Where the fl ue pipe is run through an unheated roof space it should be insulated with non combustible insulating
material to prevent condensation. The fl ue pipe should be supported at intervals of not more than 1.8m and
the support should be preferably below a joint.
3.08.2 Two pipe fl ue system
• Calculating maximum permissible fl ue length.
The calculation method is based on a standard reference parameter (1 metre of horizontal air fl ue 80 diameter 80) for
the maximum length permissible for all the pipes + fi ttings fl ow resistance coeffi cient. In other words, for all components
and pipes in the different installation confi gurations (vertical or horizontal, air or fl ue, etc.) and for all the fi ttings, a
fl ow resistance (reduction) equivalent to x metre of horizontal air induction pipe is indicated. For every boiler
model a maximum pipe length is provided, expressed in n metres of horizontal air pipe. In this way, to calculate
the length of a proposed 2 pipe air-fl ue system, add the fl ow resistance (reduction) in equivalent metres-air. For
every component and fi tting present in the system, and to check that the total is less than the maximum length
the permissible for the boiler model.
IMPORTANT: the pipes and fi ttings fl ow resistance (reduction) have been summarised on the following pages.
The fl ow resistance values written refer only to Ferroli pipes and fi ttings.
Calculation routine
1. Utilise the pipes and fi ttings fl ows resistance tables on the following pages and calculate the total fl ow
resistance in metres-air, by adding the fl ow resistances of the components in the whole air-fl ue system, based
on their position (vertical or horizontal, air inlet or fl ue outlet).
Please note that the same fi tting, identifi ed by a one code (i.e. 1 pipe diameter 80, code KWMA83A), can offer
different fl ow resistances if positioned as air inlet or fl ue outlet, if placed vertically or horizontally.
The fl ow resistance of the special two pipe fl ue-airadapters do not have to be included in the calculation
as they are already included in the maximum length calculation.
2. For the restrictors, please refer to cap. 3.06 to determinate the correct diaphragm.
3. Check that the total fl ow resistance calculated is less or equal to 48 metre, the maximum permissible
for Domina N 80 DGT.

3.09 Connecting the central heating and domestic hot water circuits
Connect to the relevant connections as indicated in fi g. 1.
Connect the pressure relief valve discharge pipe (15mm) to the outside of the building, where possible over a drain.
The discharge must be such that it will not be hazardous to occupants and passers-by or cause damage to external
electric components or wiring. The pipe should be directed towards the wall.
To ensure long life, the heating circuit should be correctly sized and fi tted with all the controls necessary to ensure
correct functioning and operation. The differential between the boiler fl ow and return pipes should not be more
than 20°C. You are advised not to use the boiler with return temperatures of less than 50°C in order to prevent
patches of condensation forming and having a corrosive effect on boiler components.
3.10 Boiler water characteristics
If the water is harder than 18 clarke degrees, the water used should be treated to avoid possible scale in the
boiler caused by hard water or corrosion by aggressive water. It should be remembered that as a result of its
low thermal conductivity, even scale of just a few millimetres thick can lead to considerable overheating of
the boiler walls, resulting in serious problems.
IT IS ABSOLUTELY VITAL THAT THE WATER USED IS TREATED IN THE FOLLOWING CASES:
a) Extensive systems (containing large quantities of water);
b) Frequent additions of water to top-up the system;
c) Domestic hot water circuits
If the system requires partial or total emptying, you are recommended to refi ll it with treated water.
3.11Filling
When cold, system pressure should be about 1 bar. If while running venting off of air dissolved in the water causes
the pressure of the central heating system to drop below 0,5 bar, the user must utilise a fi lling loop to bring it
back to the original value. During operation, water pressure in the boiler when hot should be about 1.5 - 2 bars.
After fi lling, always close and disconnect the fi lling loop.
Note - If there is a possibility of air pockets forming in certain points of the central heating system fl ow and return
pipes, you are recommended to fi t an air vent valve at these points.
Note - When the boiler is installed below the level of the central heating a system, single check valve should be
fi tted in the fl ow to prevent gravity circulation around the heating system.
3.12Gas connection
Gas connection should be carried out using a rigid pipe.
The fl ow at the gas meter should be suffi cient for the simultaneous use at full gas rate of all appliances
connected to it. Connect the gas supply to the boiler according to current regulations. The diameter of
the gas tube leaving the boiler is not the determining factor in choosing the diameter of the pipe between
the appliance and the meter. This must be selected in relation to length and pressure drop and in any
instance should not be less than 22mm.
The whole of the gas installation including the meter should be inspected and tested for soundness and
purged in accordance with BS6891-1988.
N.B. - The fi lling loop will be fi tted by the installer in accordance with water by laws at the time of installing
the system. It is NOT a part of the boiler.
3.13 Electrical connection
The boiler must be connected to a single phase 230 V 50 Hz electricity supply with a 3 A max. fuse and a bipolar
switch with contact opening of at least 3 mm fi tted between the boiler and the electricity supply. The boiler must
always be connected to an effi cient earth installation. Under the electrical box, there is a 3 pole terminal board for
connecting the boiler to the mains (230 V 50 Hz) and a 2 pole board for connecting a room thermostat (RT). To connect,
undo the screws fi xing the terminal board box and connect the wires, ensuring correct polarity of the terminals. It
should be noted that there is low voltage (24V) between the room thermostat contacts.
When the boiler is connected to an electricity main, it is essential TOOBSERVE CORRECT POLARITIES (LIVE:
brown cable, NEUTRAL: blue cable, EARTH: yellow-green cable).
All wiring must conform to current I.E.E. regulations.
24
DOMINA N 80 DGT
Note: If the power supply cable has to be replaced, use “0.75mm (24/0.20) heat resisting cable only to BS6500
with a maximum external diameter of 8 mm.
Note - When connecting a room thermostat or external timer, do not link the power supply of these devices
to the switching contacts. The switch contacts must be voltage free. Any mains powered devices must utilise
mains power solely to drive the timer motor.
Applying mains voltage to the switch contacts will irreparably damage the circuit board.
Although this boiler can also be used without a room thermostat, you are recommended to install one
for the following reasons:
Greater comfort conditions due to more accurate control of room temperature.
Greater energy savings.
3.14 Differential air pressure switch (fi g. 2 - part 45)
The differential air pressure switch is a safety device which allows the main burner to ignite only after having
verifi ed that the fan is working correctly. If the difference in pressure between the fl ue gas discharge pipe and the
air intake pipe is not at least equal to the minimum pressure switch calibration value, the pressure switch contacts
do not close and the gas valve is thus prevented from opening.
In addition, the electrical circuit of the boiler is designed so that if for any reason the air pressure switch contacts
remain closed when the fan stops, the burner will not start up again.
3.15 Checks
Fill the central heating system as described previously (3.11) and check there are no leaks in the domestic hot
water and boiler water circuits. Check that there are no gas leaks on the boiler or the supply to the boiler. Also
check that the electrical connections are correct.
3.16 Installingaroomthermostat (72) (fi g. 45)
To connect the thermostat:
Open the electrical box on the base of the appliance and remove the “jumper cable” between terminals
3 and 4.
Connect the room thermostat (72) as shown in fi gure 45.
- Remove clock blanking plate from the boiler facia panel.
- Mount clock into facia panel using two screws and spacers provided.
- Take the black cable containing the blue and brown wires and connect the loose spades to clock terminals 1 & 2.
- Connect the plug end of the cable to terminal X2 of main circuit board.
- Remove the connector link from the 2 wires located behind the clock position.
- Connect these to terminal 3 and 5 of the clock.
- Replace everything in reverse order.

4.COMMISSIONING AND TESTING
4.01 Checks to be carried out before starting up for the fi rst time
When starting the boiler up for the fi rst time check:
• that the gate valves between the boiler and central heating systems are open;
• that the central heating system is fi lled and vented;
• that there are no gas or water leaks from the central heating system or boiler;
• that the electric connections are correct and the earth wire of the boiler is connected to an effi cient earthing
installation and a 3amp. fuse is fi tted to the isolator;
• that there are no fl ammable liquids or materials near the boiler;
4.02Starting up the boiler
• Open the gas cock upstream of the boiler.
• Vent air present in the pipe upstream of the gas valve.
• Turn on electrical supply to the boiler.
At this point, choose whether the boiler is to be used for central heating and domestic hot water production
or for domestic hot water production only.
4.03Shutting down
Close the boiler isolation gas cock and turn off the electricity to the boiler.
Important: If the boiler is not to be used for lengthy periods during the winter, to avoid frost damage, you are
recommended to drain the water from the circuits (domestic hot water and central heating). Alternatively, drain the
domestic hot water system only and add special anti-freeze to the central heating system.
4.04 Checks and controls after fi rst start-up
• Check there are no leaks in the gas and water circuits.
• Check correct boiler start up by carrying out start up and shut down tests using the boiler stat.
• Check the integrity of the air-fl ue pipes during boiler operation.
• Check that the gas consumption indicated on the meter corresponds to that given in Technical Data (page 5).
• Check that water is circulating correctly. Balance the radiators to ensure that the flow and return
differential does not exceed 20°C.
• Check that the pump stops and domestic hot water is produced correctly when the hot water tap
is turned on.
• Check that the burner lights up and shuts down correctly when the domestic hot water tap is turned
on and off.
• Check that the domestic hot water fl ow and T correspond to the table. Do not rely on empirical measurements. Temperature should be measured using thermometers as near as possible to the boiler, bearing in mind
the heat loss from the pipes.
• Check that the gas valve modulates correctly both during the central heating phase and the domestic
hot water production phase.
• Determine the combustion effi ciency and the composition of the fl ue gases (refer to 6.04)
• If any of the above are not correct refer to Technical Data (page 5). Adjustment (refer to 5) and Fault
fi nding (page 37).

5.ADJUSTMENT AND GASCONVERSION
5.01 Adjusting the pressure and fl ow rate to the main burner
This boiler operates on the fl ame modulation principle. It has two fi xed pressure values, minimum and maximum,
which must be as shown in the table (pages 5), whichever type of gas is used.
Note - Because correct minimum and maximum pressures are critical to the efficient operation
of the boiler it is ESSENTIAL that the following adjustments are carried out by COMPETENT
personnel ONLY.
5.02 Adjusting minimum and maximum pressure HoneywellVK4105G gas valve
Connect suitable pressure gauge to burner test point “B” downstream of the gas valve.
• Disconnect the pressre compensation tube “F”.
• Remove the protective cap “C”.
• Set boiler on C.H..
• Adjust minimum pressure by rotating screw “D”, clockwise to reduce pressure and anticlockwise to increase
pressure.
•Activate "Test Mode", pushing together for 5 sec.
and on front panel.
• Adjust max presure by rotating screw "E",
clockwise to increase pressure and anticlockwise
to reduce pressure.
• Reconnect the pressure compensation tube “F”.
• Replace protective cap “C”.
• Deativate "Test Mode" pushing together for 5 sec.

5.03 Adjusting room temperature (when a room thermostat is fi tted)
Room temperature is controlled by positioning the room thermostat knob to the required value. The
thermostat automatically controls the boiler, temporarily interrupting the electrical supply subject to the
room heat requirements.
5.04 Adjusting the centralheating fl ow tbyvarying pump fl ow-head
The thermal head t (the difference in temperature between the delivery water and return water in the central
heating circuit) must be less than 20°C. This is obtained by varying pump fl ow rate and head using the
multi-speed variator (or switch) on the pump itself. Increasing the pump speed reduces t and vice versa. The
minimum differential must not be less than 11°C.
5.05 Adjusting centralheating system pressure
The pressure of water in the central heating system, read on the control panel pressure gauge, is adjusted
as described in paragraph 3.11 page 24.
N.B. - To avoid incurring unnecessary expense, in the event of boiler shut down, check that this is not caused by a lack
of electricity or gas, or low water pressure before calling the Customer Technical Service Helpline.
5.06Gas conversion
The following adjustment and conversion operations must be carried out by competent personnel. FERROLI
Limited accepts no liability for damage to property or personal injury resulting from tampering with the
boiler by unauthorised persons.
To convert the boiler from Nat Gas to LPG and vice versa, the main burner injectors must be replaced. Minimum and
maximum pressures must then be adjusted on the gas valve (see Adjustment page 28).
Note: After converting the boiler from natural gas to liquid gas, fi t the orange plate in the conversion
kit near the data plate.
Note: injector diameters and pressures at the main burner are given in Technical Data (page 5).
29
DOMINA N 80 DGT
6.MAINTENANCEAND CLEANING
The following operations must be carried out by Corgi registered engineers only.
6.01 Annual Servicing
The following should be checked at least once a year:
• Water pressure in the central heating system when cold should be about 1 bar. If this is not the case,
bring it back to this value.
• Check control and safety devices (gas valve, fl ow meter, thermostats, etc) are functioning correctly.
• The burner and heat exchanger must be clean. To avoid damage, always clean them with a soft brush or
compressed air. Never use chemical products.
• The expansion vessel must be checked (precharge 1 bar).
• Check there are no leaks in the gas and water circuits.
• Check the air-fl ue gas duct terminal is free from obstructions and sound.
• The electrodes must be free from corrosion build up and correctly positioned.
• Gas fl ow and pressure must correspond to the values given in the Technical Data (page 5).
• The pump must be free to rotate.
6.02Cleaning the boiler andburner
The boiler should be serviced annually. The heat exchanger and burner must never be cleaned with chemical
products or steel brushes. Particular attention must be paid to all seals and fi xings associated with the room-sealed
compartment (gaskets, grommets, etc). Air leakage would cause pressure inside the compartment to drop, possibly
tripping the differential pressure switch and thus shutting down the boiler. After cleaning particular attention should
also be paid to checking stages of start-up and operation of the thermostats, gas valve and pump.
6.03 Servicing procedure
1. Visually check boiler for correct intallation and fl ueing.
2. Isolate electricity supply + check fuse is 3amp.
3. Remove case by undoing the two screws locate at the bottom rear corners, lift slightly and pull forward.
4. Carry out preliminary electrical checks at boiler junction box. This is located in the centre of the
boiler at the bottom and can be accessed be the removal of a single screw. Any faults found must
be rectifi ed before proceeding.
5. If electrical checks prove O.K. replace cover and secure with screw.
6. Attach a manometer to the boiler gas inlet test point, turn on electricty and fi re boiler for hot water, check
inlet pressure. This should be 20mbar minimum for NG and 37mbar for LPG. If this is not the case there is a
supply problem and this will need to be remedied.
7. If inlet pressure is O.K. shut down boiler and remove manometer from gas inlet pressure test point and attach
it to the boiler burner pressure test point. Reseal inlet pressure test point.
8. Fire boiler and check that maimum and minimum pressures are as prescribed on data table. Shut down boiler,
remove manometer, seal test point. If the pressures are not as specifi ed they will need to be adjusted on the
gas valve(see page 28 - installation manual).
10. Remove fan by undoing the two fan securing screws tilt the front of the fan upwards (downwards for
rear outlet fl ue) to detach it from the securing pin and withdraw it from the boiler, disconnect the
wires and air pressure switch tubes.
11. Take off the combustion chamber cover by removing the three securing screws.
12. Lift off fl ue hood and fl ue baffl e plate.
13. Pull off the ignition and fl ame rectifi cation leads from their respective electrodes.
14. Undo the gas union in the centre of burner rail and take out the two securing screws. Remove the burner
rail and clean rail and injectors.
15. Remove two screws securing the burner assembly and remove the assembly. Clean burners.
16. Clean heat exchanger with a soft brush.
17. Re-assemble baffl e, fl ue hood and fan assembly, secure with screws previously removed.
18. Refi t burner assembly and burner rail.
19. Reconnect ignition and fl ame rectifi cation leads.
20. Reconnect gas union and tighten.
30
DOMINA N 80 DGT
21. Refi t combustion chamber cover, secure with screws.
22. Examine seals on room sealed cover refi t cover and secure with screws.
23. Turn on gas and electricity.
24. Fire boiler and check all gas joints for soundess.
25. Check fl ame picture and all controls for correct operation.
26. Check room sealed cover for leakage.
27. Check domestic water fl ow rate and temperature is within specifi cations.
28. Check operation of all safety cut off devices.
29. If a combustion analyser is to be used there are test points provided on the front of the room sealed cover.
The right hand grommet is for air and the left hand one is for fl ue gas. The boiler must reach operating
temperature before this test is carried out (normally 10-15 minutes). CO/CO2 ratio should not exceed 0.0080.
Immediately after servicing (0.0040 at any other time)
30. Refi t case and secure with screws.
31. Leave boiler set to customers requirements.
6.04 Flue Gas Analysis
1. The appliance should be checked visually for obvious defects.
2. After removing the jacket on the boiler there are two test point, one for fl ue gas and the other for air.
3. Open the air and fl ue gas test points;
4. Introduce the probes as far as the retainer;
5. Turn on the hot water tap;
6. Turn the domestic hot water stat to maximum;
7. Allow the boiler to reach thermal equilibrium
(10 - 15 min.);
8. Take reading;
9. The CO/CO2 ratio should be 0.0040 or below.
If the reading is above this then a full strip
down service must be carried out and the
cause remedied.
10. Following a full strip down service and after
reaching thermal equilibrium the permissible
reading is 0.008 or below.
FLUE
AIR
N.B.: To ensure correct readings the boiler
must have reached normal operating temperature. Testing the boiler before thermal
equilibriumhas been attained will give
incorrectreadings.
N.B.: If you have only 1 probe, measure separately air and fl ue gas, close the test point not
in use.

8. FAULT FINDING
Before beginning any fault fi nding ensure that gas, water and electricity are available.
8.01 Operating Sequence
With the power established the boiler is in its stand-by mode i. e. power on but no demand. The operational
sequence for C.H. and D.H.W. are as follows:
Central Heating Mode
External Call for Heat: The temperature regulator, built in or remote clock and room thermostat, if fi tted, must
all call for heat. This will cause the pump to run.
InternalCallfor Heat: C.H. fl ow temperature sensor, 88°C high limit and low water pressure switch all calling for
heat. If both external and internal calls for heat are present the MF03PCB will energise.
In demand the fan will go to high speed causing the air pressure switch to operate. If the overheat (100°C) stat is
closed circuit the ignition will operate and the gas valve will be energised.
The burner will light at ignition burner pressure, automatically range rating itself up to the heating load, then
modulating down when the boiler reaches the desired fl ow temperature. When the central heating is satisfi ed the burner will go off and the fan stops i.e. stand-by mode.
Note - If the boiler thermostat is set to maximum than the burner pressure will go to maximum effectively
bypassing the auto range rating facility
Domestic Hot Water Mode
External Call for D.H.W: Flow meter registers at least 2.5 litres/min fl ow to the hot water taps.
InternalCallfor D.H.W:Hot water fl ow temperature sensor 88°C high limit stat and low water pressure
switch calling for heat.
If both internal and external calls are present the boiler follows the same sequence as for C.H. to light the burner.
However, for D.H.W. the burner will go straight to maximum and then modulate once the water reaches the set
temperature of the control thermostat. Turning the tap off will return the boiler to stand-by mode.
Note: Following shut down of the D.H.W. or C.H. the boiler will go into a three minute central heating delay.

8.03 DMF03 PCB and Diagnostic
The boiler features an advanced self-diagnostic system. In the case of an fault in operation, the display fl ashes and
the code identifying the fault appears. The faults marked with the letter “A” cause the permanent shut-down of the
boiler. To reset operation the boiler must be restarted manually, pressing the “R” (reset) button.
The faults marked by the letter “F” cause temporary shut-down and are reset automatically as soon as the value
returns within the boiler’s normal operating range.
The following table lists a number of indications for resolving the faults signalled by the boiler. Interventions on
the appliance must be effected only by Qualifi ed Personnel, such as the personnel from the FERROLI Customer

8.04 Temperature sensors (thermistors)
Identical, but individual, negative temperature co-effi cient (NTC) thermistors are fi tted in the C.H. and D.H.W. outlets
from the heat exchanger. As the water temperature increases the resistance in the thermistor decreases. This causes
the PCB to reduce the voltage to the modureg, in turn reducing the burner pressure. The wiring for each thermistor
is colour coded red for C.H. and blue for D.H.W. The sensors are fi tted in wet pockets.
8.05Limit thermostats
Two surface mounted auto reset bi-metal thermostats are located on the heat exchanger secured by spring
clips. Heat sink compound is used.
8.06Ignition PCB
Located to the right hand side of the electrical control compartment accessed by lowering the facia then
removing the rear cover.
8.07Main printedcircuit board
Secured by fl our plastic tabs the PCB is situated inside the control compartment. The transformer for low voltage
AC is attached to the PCB as is the DC rectifi er. C.H. output and maximum D.H.W. temperature, adjustable by the
controls on the facia and because the boiler features automatic range rating no adjustments need to be made.
Electro mechanical relays control pump operation and put switched live to the ignition PCB (demand relay), they
have transparent plastic covers so that their contacts can be seen moving.
8.08 Air pressure switch
Operating at 230V AC and situated next to the fan. Different coloured tubes connect the switch to the fan. It is a
make on pressure switch and only uses two terminals, the middle terminal is not used.

The operation of the appliance is mostly automatic. The heat rate for the heating function is regulated
automatically by the control system according to the characteristics of the internal and external environment
(with optional external probe installed), the characteristics of the building and its location. The heat rate
for the domestic hot water function is regulated automatically and continuously, to ensure rapid delivery
and comfort in all supply conditions.
The user simply has to set the required temperature from inside the living area (using the room thermostat
or the optional, yet recommended, remote control) or set the heating system temperature and the required
outlet temperature for the domestic hot water service. The regulation and control system will then provide
for optimal operation all year round.
The display provides continuous indication on the operating status of the appliance, and can display additional
information on the temperature of the sensors, the set-point, etc. or be used for the confi guration of such
via the operating menu, using the keypad.
Any anomalies in operation involving the boiler or the heating system are signalled on the display and,
where possible, corrected automatically.

10.02 Ignition
Check than any shut-off valves in the heating system and domestic hot water circuit outside of the boiler
are open. Open the gas cock upstream from boiler and press the main switch. The boiler will perform an
self-test cycle lasting approximately one minute, at the end of which it is ready for operation. The ignition and
shut-down of the burner assembly are completely automatic operations, which depend on the requirements of
the heating system or domestic hot water circuit.
10.03Shut-down
In the event of extended periods of inactivity close the gas cock upstream from the boiler and disconnect the
electrical power supply to the appliance. In this case, the boiler antifreeze protection function is also disabled; this
function switches on the burner assembly when the heating system temperature falls below 5°C. For extended
periods of inactivity during the winter months, in order to avoid damage due to freezing, all the water should be
drained from the boiler, both the domestic hot water and the heating system; alternatively, drain only the domestic
hot water and introduce the special antifreeze into the heating system.
10.04Accessing the operating menu
Pressing the M - mode button once accesses the operating menu. Pressing the M mode button again dislays
the following parameters and information in sequence.

10.05Setting theheating system temperature
Set, using the room thermostat or remote control, the desired temperature inside the rooms. When acting on the
room thermostat, the boiler is turned on and the heating system water is brought to the central heating outlet set
temperature or calculated temperature (with temperature scrolling active). On reaching the required temperature
inside the rooms, the generator will switch off.
If no room thermostat or remote control is installed, the boiler will maintain the heating system temperature
at the central heating outlet setpoint.
To set the central heating outlet temperature, access the operating menu, and using the button display parameter
1– central heating outlet temperature. On pressing one of the buttons the display will start to fl ash, showing
the outlet temperature setpoint. Use the buttons to set the required value. To activate the new value, press
the button . To cancel the setting, do not press the button , and press the button .
10.06Setting thedomestichot water temperature
Set, using the control boiler panel, the required domestic hot water outlet temperature. On opening a hot water
tap, the system regulates itself to supply water at the set temperature, according to the fl ow rate of delivery
and the temperature of the cold water supplied to the boiler. If in terms of delivery or temperature difference
between the inlet and outlet, the thermal capacity of the generator is exceeded (refer to the technical data), the
outlet temperature will be proportionally lower than the setpoint.

DOMINA N 80 DGT
To set the domestic hot water outlet temperature, access the operating menu, and using the button
display parameter 2 – domestic hot water temperature. On pressing one of the buttons the display
will start to fl ash and the domestic hot water outlet temperature setpoint will be displayed. Use the buttons
to set the required value. To activate the new value, press the button . To cancel the setting, do not
press the button , and press the button .
10,07 Outside temperature compensation
When the (optional) external probe is installed, the boiler regulation system functions in “Outside temperature
compensation” mode. In this mode, the temperature of the heating system is regulated according to the
external climatic conditions, so as to guarantee a high degree of comfort and energy saving all year round.
Specifi cally, when the external temperature falls, the central heating outlet temperature is increased, according
to a pre-determined “compensation curve”.In this mode, the temperature set in parameter 1 of the operating menu becomes the maximum central
heatin g outlet temperature. This should be set to Maximum to allow the system to regulate over the
entire working range.
The boiler must be set during installation by qualifi ed personnel. Other minor modifi cations can be made by the user
to improve the level of comfort: the compensation curve can in fact be modifi ed by accessing the operating menu
with the button and scrolling the menu, again using the button, to parameter 9.
The set compensation curve is displayed (refer to graph below). Pressing one of the buttons the display
starts to fl ash; use the buttons to set the required value. To activate the new curve, press the button .
To cancel the setting, do not press the button, and press the button .
If the ambient temperature is lower than the required value, it is suggested to set a higher curve, and vice-versa. Proceed with single unit increments or decreases, and check the results in the room.
