2.4.3 General information for installation room (boiler room)
Boiler room characteristics
▪ There must not be a potentially explosive atmosphere in the boiler room as the
boiler is not suitable for use in potentially explosive environments.
▪ The boiler room must be frost-free.
▪ The boiler does not provide any light, so the customer must provide sufficient light‐
ing in the boiler room in accordance with national workplace design regulations.
▪ When using the boiler over 2000 metres above sea level you should consult the
manufacturer.
▪ Danger of fire due to flammable materials.
No flammable materials should be stored near the boiler. Flammable objects (e.g.
clothing) must not be put on the boiler to dry.
▪ Damage due to impurities in combustion air.
Do not use any solvents or cleaning agents containing chlorine in the room where
the boiler is installed.
▪ Keep the air suction opening of the boiler free from dust.
Ventilation of the boiler room
Ventilation air for the boiler room should be taken from and expelled directly outside,
and the openings and air ducts should be designed to prevent weather conditions (foli‐
age, snowdrifts, etc.) from obstructing the air flow.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable building regulations for the boiler room,
the following standards apply to the design and dimensions of the air ducts:
ÖNORM H 5170 - Construction and fire protection requirements
TRVB H118 - Technical directives on fire protection/prevention
The following standards and guidelines apply:

2.4.5 Return lift
If the hot water return is below the minimum return temperature, some of the hot water
outfeed will be mixed in.
CAUTION
Risk of dropping below dew point/condensation formation if operated without re‐
turn temperature control.
Condensation water forms an aggressive condensate when combined with com‐
bustion residue, leading to damage to the boiler.
Take the following precautions:
❒ Regulations stipulate the use of a return temperature control.
➥ The minimum return temperature is 65 °C. We recommend fitting some
In principle it is not necessary to use a storage tank for the system to run smooth‐
ly. However we recommend that you use the system with a storage tank, as this
ensures a continuous supply of fuel in the ideal output range of the boiler.
For the correct dimensions of the storage tank and the line insulation (in accordance
with ÖNORM M 7510 or guideline UZ37) please consult your installer or Froling.

2.4.7 Chimney connection/chimney system
EN 303-5 specifies that the entire flue gas system must be designed to prevent, wher‐
ever possible, damage caused by seepage, insufficient feed pressure and condensa‐
tion. Please note in this respect that flue gas temperatures lower than 160K above
room temperature can occur in the permitted operating range of the boiler.
The flue gas temperatures (for clean systems) and additional flue gas values can be
found in the table below.
The connection between the boiler and the chimney system should be as short as
possible. The upward angle of the connection should not exceed 30 - 45°. Insulate the
connection. The entire flue gas system - chimney and connection - should be calcula‐
ted in accordance with EN 13384-1.
Local regulations and other statutory regulations also apply.
NOTICE! The chimney must be authorised by a smoke trap sweeper or chimney
sweep.
NOTICE! TRVB H 118 (Austria only) stipulates that an explosion flap must be installed
in the connecting piece (flue pipe) directly next to the boiler. It should be situated in
such a way that is poses no risk to persons!

The front side is considered as operator side of the boiler. All for operation necessary
elements like combustion chamber door, ash box and control box are arranged on the
front side. The back side is the opposite side. On the back side the stoker unit, the
WOS-drive as well as the whole exhaust gas routing system are arranged.
Heat exchanger left or right
In general it is different, if the heat exchanger of the TX (front view = operator side) is
positioned on the left or the right side of the fire box. Before mounting it has to be de‐
fined, whether the heat exchanger is mounted on the left or the right, as far as it is not
defined by an existing floor plan.
