1. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

1.01 Introduction

The Sigma is deﬁ ned as a “room sealed” 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, which is designed to provide indirect hot water and/or

central heating. The cast iron heat exchanger is suitable for use on fully pumped hot water/central heating systems, which may be sealed or open vented. A special feature of this boiler is its built-in electronic ﬂ ame ignition and control unit making burner operation completely automatic and safe.

The main components are as follows: Cast iron heat exchanger speciﬁ cally shaped for high efﬁ ciency. Ceramic ﬁ bre insulated combustion chamber One stainless steel bladed burner speciﬁ cally designed for this boiler. Fan for discharge of combustion products and intake of combustion air. Differentia l air pressure 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, complete with pressure stabiliser. Central heating ﬂ ow temperature adjustment thermostat. Overheat safety thermostat. Electronic control unit for automatic ﬂ ame ignition and control. Central heating ﬂ ow temperature sensor.

2. INSTALLATION

2.01 Important notices

Assembly, installation, ﬁ rst start up and maintenance must be carried out by competent persons only, in accordance with all current technical regulations and directives.

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.

This appliance must be installed strictly in accordance with these instructions and regulations:

The Gas Safety Regulations (Installations & Use) 1996. The Local Building Regulations. The Building Regulations. The Buildings Standards (Scotland - Consolidated) Regulations. British Standards Codes of Practice: B.S. 5440 Part 1 2000 Flues B.S. 5440 Part 2 1989 Air supply B.S. 5449 1990 FORCED CIRCULATION HOT WATER SYSTEMS B.S. 6798 1987 INSTALLATION OF GAS FIRED HOT WATER BOILERS B.S. 6891 1989 GAS INSTALLATIONS B.S. 7671 1992 IEE WIRING REGULATIONS B.S. 4814 1990 SPECIFICATION FOR EXPANSION VESSELS B.S. 5482 1994 INSTALLATION OF LPG B.S. 7593 1992 TREATMENT OF WATER IN DOMESTIC HOT WATER CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS Model Water Bye Laws For Northern Ireland the rules in force apply

N.B. For Northern Ireland the rules in force apply.

Important - If the boiler is to be ﬁ tted in a timber framed building it should be ﬁ tted in accordance with

the institute of gas engineers publication IGE/UP/1. If in doubt advice should be sought from the Local Gas Region of British Gas Plc.

2.01.01 Location of Boiler

The installation of the Sigma 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 boiler the following limitations must be observed: The 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 boiler in a room or internal space containing a bath or shower. Where a room sealed appliance is installed in a room containing 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.

2.01.02 Air Supply

The room or compartment in which the boiler is installed does not require a purpose provided vent when using the standard concentric ﬂ ue.

2.01.03 Flue System

The boiler allows the ﬂ ue outlet to be taken from the rear of the boiler, from either side or vertically. 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.

Note: A bypass must be ﬁ tted as far

as possible from the boiler if thermostatic radiator valves are ﬁ tted thoughout.

2.01.04 Gas Supply

If necessary the local Gas supplier should be consulted, at the installation planning stage, in order to establish the availability of an adequate supply of gas. An existing service pipe must not be used without prior consultation with the Local Gas supplier. A gas meter can only be connected by the Local Gas supplier, or by a Local Gas suppliers Contractor. Installation pipes should be ﬁ tted in accordance with BS6891-1988. Appliance inlet working pressure must be 20mbar MINIMUM (Natural gas - G20) or 37 mbar MINIMUM (LPG - G31).

Pipework from the meter to the combination boiler must be of an adequate size. Do not use pipes of a smaller size than the combination boiler inlet gascock connection. The complete installation must be tested for gas soundness and purged as described in BS6981-1988. All pipework

must be adequately supported.

2.02 Water System (sealed systems)

Central heating

Detailed recommendations are given in BS6798, BS5449, BS6700 and CP342 Part 2. Pipework not forming part of the useful heating suface 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. Copper 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 sealed heating system illustrated in ﬁ g. 4.

Important - If thermostatic radiator valves are ﬁ tted throughout a bypass must be ﬁ tted to ensure a minimum ﬂ ow rate through the boiler of 6 l/min. The bypass should be ﬁ tted as far as possible from the boiler.

2.02.01 Safety valve

A safety valve complying with the requirements of BS 6750 Part 1 must be ﬁ tted close to the boiler on the ﬂ ow pipe by means of a horizontal or vertically upward connection with no intervening valve or restrictions and should be positioned to facilitate testing. The valve should be pre-set and nonadjustable to operate at a pressure of 3 bar (45 Ibf/in2). It must be arranged to discharge any water or steam through a pipe to a safe outlet position.

2.02.02 Pressure gauge

A pressure gauge of minimum range 0-4 bar (0-60 Ibf/in2) with a ﬁ ll pressure indicator must be ﬁ tted to the system, preferably at the same point as the expansion vessel in an easily visible position.

2.02.03 Venting

A method of venting the system during ﬁ lling and commissioning must be provided by ﬁ tting automatic air vents or by venting manually.

2.02.04 Expansion vessel

In a sealed system an expansion vessel complying with the requirements of BS 4814 must be ﬁ tted to the system by means of a connection close to the inlet side of the circulating pump in accordance with the manufacturers instructions, the connecting pipe being unrestricted and not less than 15 mm (1/2 in) nominal size. The volume of the vessel should be suitable for the system water content and the nitrogen or air charge pressure should not be less than the system static head.

Further details of sealed system design can be obtained from BS 5449: Part 1 and the British Gas publication entitled Speciﬁ cations for Domestic Wet Central Heating Systems.

2.02.05 Water treatment

If water treatment is used ferroli limited recommend only the use of Fernox or Sentinel water treatment products, which must be used in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. For further information contact:

Fernox Manufacturing Co. LTD. Sentinel Division Tandern house, Marlowe Way Betz Dearborn LTD Croydon, surrey, CRO 4YS Widnes, Cheshire WA8 8ND Te l: 0870 5601 5000 Te l : 0151 424 5351

Note - If the boiler is installed in an existing system any unsuitable additives must be removed by thorough cleansing. All systems should be cleansed according to B.S. 7593.

Note - In hard water areas treatment to prevent lime scale may be necessary.

Note - It is important that the correct concentration of the water treatment product is maintained in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

2.03 Gas connection

Gas connection must be carried out using a rigid pipe. The ﬂ ow at the gas meter should be sufﬁ cient for the simultaneous use of all appliances connected to it. Connect the gas supply to the boiler according to current regulations. The diameter of the gas cock 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. The whole of the gas installation including the meter should be inspected and tested for soundness and purged in accordance with BS6891-1988.

2.08 Electrical connection

The boiler must be connected to a single phase 230V 50Hz 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. In the electrical box, there is a 3 pole terminal block for connecting the boiler to the mains (230V 50Hz) and a 3 pole block for connecting a circulating pump (not supplied). See Wiring diagram (ﬁ g. 41a) for the connection of external control.

When the boiler is connected to an electricity main, it is essential TO ENSURE CORRECT POLARITY (LIVE: brown cable, NEUTRAL: blue cable, EARTH: yellow-green cable).

All wiring must conform to current I.E.E. regulations.

Note: If the power supply cable has to be replaced, use “0.75mm

(24/0.20) cable only to BS6500 with a maximum external diameter of 8 mm.

3. COMMISSIONING AND TESTING

3.01 Checks to be carried out before starting up for the ﬁ rst time

When ﬁ ring the boiler up for the ﬁ rst time, it is good practice to check: that the isolation valves between the boiler and central heating systems are open; that the central heating system is well 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; that there are no inﬂ ammable liquids or materials near the boiler; that the central heating gas pressure and ﬂ ow rate are as required.

3.02 Starting up the boiler

• Open the gas cock of the boiler.

• Vent air present in the pipe upstream of the gas valve.

• Turn on the switch (if present) or plug upstream of the boiler.

• Rotate the C.H. temperature adjustment knob above Min position.

• Set the room thermostat (if ﬁ tted) to maximum.

• At this point, the burner ignites and the boiler starts to function automatically, controlled by its control

and safety devices.

Note - If after completing the start-up procedure correctly, the burner fails to ignite and the boiler shut down warning lights up, wait about 15 seconds then press the reset switch. The reset electronic control unit will repeat the start-up cycle. If after a second attempt the burners still fail to ignite, consult the paragraph “Troubleshooting”.

Note - If there is a power failure while the boiler is in operation, the burners automatically go out and re-ignite when the power returns.

WARNING

If the system is ﬁ lled with very cold water, the boiler will automatically light due to the frost thermostat sensing the low temperature. The boiler will not shut down, until the water temperature reaches 10°C.

3.03 Shutting down

To shut down the boiler for short periods

• Set the temperature adjustment knob to "Off" position.

To shut down the boiler for long periods

• Turn off gas supply.

• Turn off the electricity supply.

IMPORTANT

The boiler is protected by integral frost protection, but if the boiler is not to be used for a long period of time, the system should be drained.

Note: The frost thermostat operates even if the temperature adjustment knob is in the OFF 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 afﬁ xed to the appliance to draw attention to the fact that the system

has been drained.

3.04 Checks and tests 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 (paragraph

1.03). Check that water is circulating correct. Balance the radiators to ensure that the ﬂ ow and return differential does not exceed 20°C.

4. ADJUSTMENT

4.01 Adjusting the gas pressure and heat output

The following adjustments must be carried out by qualiﬁ ed personnel only.

To adjust boiler heat input simply adjust the burner pressure gas via the pressure regulator on the gas valve (ﬁ g. 41).

Adjust the gas pressure at the burner by turning the pressure regulating screw: turn it clockwise to increase the burner pressure and anticlockwise to decrease it.

The diagrams indicate the variation in heat output to the water as burner working pressure is varied (ﬁ g. 42a and 42b). Adjusting boiler output to the actual requirements of 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.

4.02 Adjusting central heating ﬂ ow temperature

Central heating water temperature is adjusted by rotating the control knob (ﬁ g. 52). Rotate the knob clockwise to increase water temperature, anticlockwise to reduce water temperature. Temperature can be varied from a minimum of 60°C to a maximum of 82°C. However, we recommend not operating the boiler below 50°C.

4.03 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.

4.04 Adjusting central heating system pressure

The pressure of water in the central heating system is adjusted as described in the paragraph 2.02.07.

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.

4.05 Determining combustion efﬁ ciency and the composition of the ﬂ ue gases

On the boiler there are two test points, one for ﬂ ue gas and the other for air. To carry out the tests, proceed as follows:

1) Open the air and ﬂ ue gas test points;

2) Introduce the probes;

3) Switch ON the boiler;

N.B. To ensure correct readings the boiler must have reached normal operating temperature. Testing the boiler

before thermal equilibrium has been attained will give incorrect readings.

5. GAS CONVERSION

The following adjustment and conversion operations must be carried out by qualiﬁ ed 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 Natural gas to LPG and vice versa, the burner injector must be replaced (see ﬁ g. 43). Gas pressures must then be adjusted on the gas valve as described in the paragraph 4.01.

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 (1.03).

6. MAINTENANCE AND 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, 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 (if ﬁ tted) must be checked. 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 electrode must be free from corrosion build up and correctly positioned (see ﬁ g. 44). Gas ﬂ ow and pressure must correspond to the values given in the Technical Data (paragraph 1.03). The pump must be free to rotate.

6.02 Cleaning the boiler and burner

The boiler should be serviced annually. Before starting check the boiler is operating correctly then isolate the electrical and gas supply to the boiler. The heat exchanger may be cleaned by insertion of a thin metal strip e.g. steel rule, from above or below. Clean the front and rear ﬁ n sections and ensure that any blockages are cleared. The 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. If performing combustion analysis prior to servicing, the CO/CO2 ratio must not exceed 0.0004. If it does, a full service is required. After a full service the CO/CO2 ratio must not exceed 0.0008.

6.03 Sigma Servicing Procedure (only to carried out by a competent person)

1) Visually check the boiler for correct installation and ﬂ ueing.

2) Isolate electricity supply.

3) Remove cover (2 screws at bottom light and pull forward).

4) Carry out preliminary electrical checks at the boiler junction box. This is situated to the right of the sealed compartment and is accessed by lowering the control PCB compartment (1 screw).

Note: The boiler electrical supply will need to be isolated, whilst carrying out polarity checks. Any faults must

be rectiﬁ ed before proceeding.

5) If electrical checks prove o/k replace control panel and secure with ﬁ xing screw.

6) Using the inlet pressure test point on the gas valve check the inlet WORKING gas pressure, this should be 20 millibar MINIMUM for N.G. and 37 millibar MINIMUM for LPG.

This should be available at all times i.e. when all other gas appliances from the same supply are working

fully. If this is not the case, installation may be deemed AT RISK and the gas supply pipework throughout the system may have to be increased in size.

7) If inlet working pressure is ok using the test point on the gas valve marked OUT check the burner pressure. Burner pressures for the required heat output can be obtained from ﬁ g. 42a for natural gas and ﬁ g. 42b for LPG.

The burner pressure is adjusted by the pressure regulating screw on the gas valve see section 4.01 for detail.

8) Turn off the boiler and isolate the gas and electricity supplies.

9) Remove the sealed compartment cover (4 screw).

10) Remove the fan assembly and clean with a soft brush.

11) Remove combustion chamber front panel (4 screws) lift out ﬂ ue hood and bafﬂ e plate.

12) Slide the burner forward, disconnect the lead from the spark electrode, remove the burner and clean.

13) Clean injector.

14) Clean the heat exchanger with a suitable soft brush. DO NOT DAMAGE THE REAR INSULATION and clean

out the combustion chamber.

15) EXAMING seals on the room sealed compartment from panel and if necessary replace.

16) Re-assemble in reverse order.

17) Re instate gas and electric supply.

18) Fire the boiler and check all gas joint for soundness.

19) Re check burner pressure.

20) Check ﬂ ame picture and all controls for correct operation.

21) Check room sealed cover for leakage.

22) Check all safety devices for correct operating.

23) Check the gas rate to the boiler is correct.

24) If a combustion analyzer is to be used, there are 2 test point on the front of the room sealed cover at the

top, the lower one is for the ﬂ ue gases the upper one for incoming air. The boiler should be operated for at least 10 minutes before carrying out this test.

CO/CO2 ratio should not exceed 0.004 prior to servicing and 0.008 immediately after servicing.

25) Reﬁ t cover and leave boiler set to customer requirements.

8. FAULT FINDING

Before commencing any fault ﬁ nding procedure on the boiler, ensure electricity is on to the appliance, the gas supply is turned on, purged and is sound, and the system is full of water. Note: in certain condition the fan and overheat thermostat may have 230 v at their terminals, but the fan will not run. Intermittent problem may be due to the temperature sensor breaking down when under load although the resistance value may be within the stated range. Sticking gas valves may lead to boiler lock out problems. It is not possible to test for power to the gas valve due to the nature of the plug on sequence board.

8.01 Boiler Operating Sequence

Permanent live to boiler Switched live from controls read Boiler thermostat calling

Temperature sensor calling When all the above is present, the pump connection becomes live and the pump runs. The grey wire of the control board on X5 becomes live, 230 v. Air pressure switch has 230 v to the normally open (N.O.) contact. Fan motor and overheat thermostat have 230 v al both terminals to earth.

If the air pressure switch is open circuit between its N.O. and common contact, the voltage at the overheat thermostat to earth drops to almost zero. The white wire of the fan becomes a neutral and the fan runs. The air pressure switch operates to make a circuit between its N.O. and common contacts. If the overheat thermostat is closed circuit the ignition electrode will spark the gas, valve opens and the burner lights.

8.02 Troubleshooting - Quick reference guide

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, gas or low water pressure before calling the Customer Technical Service.

9. USER INSTRUCTIONS

The boiler is designed for use with two types of gas: natural gas NG or propane (LPG). The type of gas can be selected when purchasing the boiler or the appliance can be converted later on site by a competent person. It operates with technologically advanced systems such as electronic adjustment, safety and control devices. The boiler is ﬁ tted with automatic electronic ignition so there is no pilot to worry about.

Operating:

Turn up the cover to reveal the control panel. Make sure that the gas, water and electricity supplies to the boiler are turned on.

To obtain heating from the boiler, turn the temperature regulator (2) clockwise to the desired position, ensure that any other heating controls e.g. room thermostats, clock etc. are in the on position.

The boiler ﬂ ow temperature is adjusted by from panel knob (see ﬁ g. 42) from 60°C to 82°C. Once the ﬂ ow temperature reached set value, the burner goes out and the electronic system imposes a delay of 3 minutes before allowing re-ignition. Once heat demand is ﬁ nished, pump and burner go out. In "gravity circulation system" (see paragraph 3.07) the pump signal is an input for electronic device. If the pump is not running and there is heat demand the temperature control is set on 50°C and after 3 minutes slow start time, this level switches to a ﬁ xed value of 70°C. With the knob in "OFF" position the call for heat is disabled; but if the temperature in the ambient comes below 5°C, a frost protection overrules the off-state and a heat demand is generated.

IMPORTANT
