The floor or plinth for the boiler(s) and Arne Eco, must be both flat and level to ensure
correctalignment of fittingsand connections.
The floor or plinth must be sufficientlystrong to support theweight of the boiler(s) and
economiser (whenfull ofwater)and pipework.
The floor or plinthmust be fireproof inaccordancewith BS 6644.
The plantroom must have sufficient space for installation of boilers, economisers,
pipework, pumps, controls, flues, ventilation, access and servicingand other items of
plant.
Sufficient space must be provided around the equipment to allow for access to
valves and flue and for installation, servicingand replacement, of components.
4.2 Flueing
Flue termination, routing and construction must comply with the requirements of the
Clean Air Act 1956, BS 6644, BS5440 andIGE/UP/10 where applicable.
All Arne Eco models are suitable for open flue (type B
) installation, with the boiler(s)
23
drawingcombustionairfrom the plantroom.
Due to the low flue gas temperature onstart-upand in normal running(dependent upon
return temperature), condensation will occur in the flue leaving the Arne Eco. Flue
materialsmust be non-corrosiveand utilise fullysealing joints.
it is recommended that the flue system shall be adapted to its design diameter as
soonas possible, after leaving the Arne Eco.
Flue systems must be self supporting, contain access for cleaning and contain a
maintenance joint near the boiler and economiser outletsto allow for routine
cleaning.
Existing chimneys should be thoroughly swept before use and any register plates,
dampers, or restrictions removed. Existing chimneys must be lined with a suitable
liner.
Chimneys should be lined with a non-porous acid-resistant material in accordance
with BS.5854, e.g. a flexible flue liner or similar British Gas Approved material. The
internal diameter of the liner must not be less than the recommended flue size and
the number of joints should be kept to a minimum.
It is recommended that a draught stabiliser is fitted to the flue systemwhere the suction
is likely to exceed 0.3mbar. The flue system should be designed to maintain
atmospheric pressure or a slight suctionat the boiler flue connection at alltimes (0.1 -
0.3mbar).
Combustible materials in the vicinity of the boilerand flueshall not exceed65 °C during
operation. The flue shall not be closer than 50mm to anycombustible material,except
where it passes throughsuch material witha non-combustible sleeve when the air gap
may not be lessthan25mm.
When designing the flue system, care must be taken to ensure that any condensate
which may form within the system, can be safely drained to a suitable waste point
and, that the flue material used is resistant to the corrosive effects of that
condensate.

4.3 Water Supply
The Arne Eco is suitable for operating on open vented or sealed (pressurised)
heatingsystems.
A dedicated circulating pump (not HHLsupply) is required to ensure minimum flow
rates are achieved through the economiser - refer to Appendix E for flow rates and
duty.
A differential pressure switch is provided to prove that minimum water flow rates
are achieved through the economiser. This MUST be connected across the pump
flow andreturn connections.
Pressurised system to comply with BS 7074. The flow connection is fitted with a
connection for the use of a suitably sized safety valve - refer to BS6644.
Feed Water Quality- The condition of the feed water quality must be controlled:
It is strongly recommended that the system pipework is flushed at least twice
before adding water treatment andbefore installing the boiler and economiser.
In hard water areas (>100mg CaCO3/litre) precautions such as water treatment are
strongly recommendedto prevent the build up of sludge and scale.
Leaks in the system pipework must be repaired to prevent dilution of water
treatment.
Maximum workingwater pressure is 6bar.
Minimum water pressure 0.5 bar
Care must be taken to ensure that oxygen does not enter the system via the open
feed tank, or system materials whichallow the transmissionof oxygen into the
system.
If this cannot be prevented, additional measures are necessary in the form of
correctly used oxygen binding agents or chemicals.
If it is not possible, consideration must be givenfor separation of the boiler from
the system using for example plate heat exchangers.
Acoarse filter and dirt separator in the return to both boiler(s) andeconomiser
MUST be fitted. The use of an automatic air vent is recommended.
Specific attention must be made to the system design so as to achieve the
increased efficiency performance and to maintainthe minimum flow requirements
through the economiser - refer to Appendix E for specific information.
The pump and economiser should be fitted with suitable isolating valves to allow
maintenance and replacement, should it be necessary.

8.0CONTROLS AND OPERATION
10.1 Initial Inspection
8.1 Temperatures
It is essential that minimum flow rates are achieved so
as to extract the heat from the flue gases, thus
delivering the efficiencygains.
Typical flue gas temperatures leaving the economiser
aredetailedinAppendixA.
Withmixed temperature circuits, it isimportant that high
temperature circuits return directly to the mixed flow
headerconnectedto theboiler primaryheat
exchangers. Accordingly non return valves should be
used in the system design -refer toAppendixE.
8.2 Water Flow Controls
The Arne Eco has minimum flow requirements and
accordingly a dedicated circulation pump is required to
deliver the required flow in the low temperature circuit refer toAppendix A for pump duties.
Correctly sized circulating pumps and valves must be
used in thesystem to provide the necessary
performance.
In the event of inadequate or no flow, the water flow
switch will hold off the boilerfiringuntil the minimumflow
requirement is satisfied.
8.3 Frost Protection
a. To gain access to the heat exchanger flue ways,
swivel back the two end panels which are latched by
magnets. This will expose M8 screws securing the
access panels.Repeat the operation for the
opposite side.
b.Withdraw the access panels using the handles
provided to give access to the heat exchanger
tubes. Clean the heat exchanger tubes and flue
ways with the brush provided.
c. Arne Eco Turbo models only - remove the
decorative cover from the upper exhaust duct,
loosen the M8 screws securing the fan motor
assembly to the upper chamber; then remove the
assembly taking particular care of the seal.
Should the seal be compromised, replace.
d. In replacing any components, inspect and renew
gaskets and seals where appropriate. Replace and
secure the access panel(s), remembering to close
the end panels and secure on the magnet latches.
This will prevent any undue heat losses
Consideration should be given to fitting a frost
thermostat setat approximately4°C.
8.4 Unvented Systems
Refer to the boiler instructions for guidance on unvented systems.
9.0FAULT FINDING
9.1Fault Finding
Fault finding on the burner control system is detailed
in the burner manufacturers instructions. If the boiler
still cannot be operated satisfactorily after following
these instructions, consult Hamworthy Heating for
assistance.
10.0 SERVICING
A qualified engineer registered for working on non
domesticgasoroil appliancesshould check andensure
that the flue, its supportand terminal, the ventilation to
the boilerhouse, safety valve, drain, water filter if fitted,
pressure gauge, etc.; are in a serviceable and working
condition and still comply with the relevant standards
and codesofpractice - see Section3.1
The boiler should be serviced at regular intervals,
not exceeding SIX months for oil fired boilers, or
TWELVEmonths for gas fired boilers.
When carrying out boiler servicing always consider
both your own safety and that of others. The use of
protective equipment (e.g. eye protection, face
mask, protective gloves, etc.) is recommended
where necessary.

BURNER SELECTION - Ensbury LT & Melbury HE boilers
Referring to the increased flue gas circuit resistance, see figures C1, C2 & C3, caused by the economiser heat
exchanger, consideration must be given to the impact on the burnerperformance such that the firing rateisnot
adversely affected.
For other manufacturers boiler combinations with Arne Eco economisers, the additional resistance must
be added to the boiler combustion chamber resistance defined in the Boiler instructions - refer to boiler
manufacturer.
In the case ofEnsbury LT and Melbury HE boilers, the following models require revised burner applications to
ensure satisfactoryperformance.

APPENDIX C - FLUE DATA
C 1 General Requirements
Detailed recommendations forflue systems aregivenin
BS 6644, IGE/UP/10, "Fluesfor Commercial and Indus-
trial Gas-Fired Boilersand Air Heaters."
The following notes are intended to give general guid-
ance only.
C.1.1 The flue passageswithin the Arne Eco econo-
miser range operate under pressurised conditions
and in order to eliminate any additional resistance, it
is recommended that the flue system shall be
adapted toits design diameteras soon aspossible.
C.1.2 The Arne Eco models are designed for direct
connection into the flue system of a single or modu-
lar boiler system and must be sized for the maximum firing rate of the boiler(s).
The Arne Eco Turbo models should be installed in
parallel to the flue system
C.1.3 The boiler should be connected to a single
flue system in the case of a single boiler, or a
common flue header in the case of a multiple boiler
installation. Flue systems must be self supporting,
containaccess forcleaningandcontaina
maintenance joint near the boiler outlet to allow for
removal of the flue box during servicing.
Consult Hamworthy Heating Technical Department
for help orassistance if in doubt.
C.2 Design Waste GasVolume andTemperature
It isrecommended that the volume and temperature
of the waste gases used for design of the flue
system are as shown in FiguresA1, A2 & A3
C.3 Materials
point atwhich it exits the building is fully
weatherproofed.
C.4 Suction
The flue system should bedesigned to maintain atmospheric pressure or a slight suction at the economiser
flueconnection atall times (0.1-0.3mbar).
It is recommended that a draught stabiliser is fitted to
the flue system where the suction is likely to exceed
0.3mbar.
C.5 Disconnection
Provisionsshould be made fordisconnectionof the flue
pipe for servicing. It is advisable that bends are fitted
with removable covers for inspection and cleaning as
appropriate. NOTE! The flue system must be self sup-
porting and not presenta riskto peoplein oraround the
building.
C.6 Flue Discharge
The flue system must ensure safe and efficient operationof theboilerto whichitis attached, protect the com-
bustion process from wind effects and disperse the
products of combustionto theexternal air.
The fluemustterminateina freelyexposedposition and
be situated soas toprevent theproductsof combustion
entering anyopeningin a building. Consideration should
begivento thefittingof a fluedischargeterminal orgrille
to stoptheingressofbirds etc.
The flue system should be designed such that the
flue terminates at least 1 metre above the roof surface, or above the level of any nearby structure
which iswithin 2.5 metresof the flue.
Materials used for the flue systemmust bemechanically
robust, resistant to internal and external corrosion, non-
combustible and durable under the conditions to which
theyarelikely tobesubjected.
Consideration should be given to possible freezing of
condense water traps and pipework. This must be
avoidedatall times. Insulate condense pipesif freezing
temperaturesare likelyto be encountered.
Chimneys should be lined with a non-porous acidresistant material in accordance with BS.5854, e.g.
a flexible flue liner or similar British Gas Approved
material. The internal diameter of the liner must not
be less than the recommended flue size and the
number of joints should be kept to a minimum.
Any joint between the flexible liner and the flue connection to the economiser should be made using a
purposemade connector. Existing chimneys should
be thoroughly swept before use and any register
plates, dampers, or restrictions removed.
If the boiler(s) is not connected to a chimney
system, but is connected directly to outside by a
standard stainless steel flue (either single or twin
wall) it is particularly important to ensure that the
HAMWORTHY HEATING LTD
ARNE ECO & ECO TURBO500001194/A
C.7 Surface Temperatures
Combustible materials in the vicinity of the boiler and
flue shall not exceed 65°Cduring boiler operation. The
flue shall not be closer than 50mm to any combustible
material, except where it passes through suchmaterial
with a non-combustible sleeve when the air gap may
notbelessthan 25mm.
C.8 Flue System Location
The flue system must not be placed or fitted where
there isundue riskof accidental damage tothe flue pipe
or undue dangerto persons in the vicinity. NOTE! The
flue MUST be self supporting. Check that the flue and
chimney are clearfrom anyobstruction.
C.9 Condensate Discharge
When designing the flue system, care must be taken
to ensure that any condensate which may form
within the system, can be safely drained to a suitable waste point and, that the flue material used is
resistant to the corrosive effectsof that condensate.

APPENDIX D - VENTILATION
Refer to the boiler Instruction forclarification of ventilation requirements
APPENDIX E - WATER DATA
Figure E.1 – Arne Eco Hydraulic Circuit Information - (models 130 - 1080)
E 1 Water circulationsystem
Recommendations for the water circulation system
are given in BS 6644 for gas fired boilers but the
same principals can be used for those using fuel oil.
The following notes are of particular importance:-
E1.1 In a combined central heating and hot water
system, the hot water storage vessel must be of the
indirect cylinder or calorifier type. The hot water storage vessel should be insulated preferably with not
less than 75mm (3 in) thick mineral fibre, or its thermal equivalent.
E1.2 Circulating pipework not forming part of the useful heating surface should be insulated to help pre-
vent heatlossand possible freezing, particularly
where pipes are run through roof spacesand venti-
HAMWORTHY HEATING LTD
ARNE ECO & ECO TURBO500001194/A
lated cavities. Cisterns situated in areas, whichmay
be exposed to freezing conditions, should also be
insulated. Insulation
exposed to the weather should be rendered water-
proof.
E1.3 Flanged flow and return connections are pro-
vided for both economiser and boiler.
E1.4 Multiple boilers should be connected by flow
and return headers. Headers should be connected to
the system in a "reverse return" arrangement (the
water flow in each headeris in the same direction) to
ensure equal flow in each boiler.
E1.5 A coarse filter and dirt separatorMUST be fitted
in the return to both primary and secondary heat ex-
changers

E.2 Pressure Relief Valve (Safety Valve)
The most important single safety device fitted to a
boiler is its safety valve and each boiler, or in the
case of a multiple installation, each bank of boilers,
must be fitted with a pressure relief valve to BSEN-
ISO 4126-1 and sized asshown in BS 6644.
Each boiler and economiser has a tapping on the
flow pipe forthe fitting of a safety valve to theboiler.
BS 6644 provides comprehensive information for
the selection and location of safety valves and
attentionisdrawntothehighercapacity
requirements of safety valves for pressurised hot

ARNE ECO & ECO TURBO500001194/A
water systems.
E.3 OpenVent and Cold Feed Pipe
(See BS 6644 for furtherinformation.)
Every boileror group of boilersshould have an open
vent pipe and cold feed pipe installed between the
boiler and the first water isolating valve. The
minimum bore (mm) of these pipesis detailed in the
boilerinstruction manual.
The vent pipe must rise continually, must not be
valved except by a design which when closed for
maintenance the boiler is open to atmosphere. The
pipe shall be protected against freezing where this
might occur.
29
Figure E.3 – Arne Eco Turbo Hydraulic Circuit Information
E.4 Altitude Gauge (Water Pressure Gauge)
Every boiler or group of boilers should be provided
with a gauge complete with isolating valve.
E.5 Thermometer
A thermometer complete with pocket should be
fitted in the pipework to indicate water flow
temperature.
E.6 DrainValves
Each economiser should have a drain valve fitted
(not H.H.L. supply), to the appropriate connection
on the return pipe of the economiser.
The heating system in total should have drain
valvesas recommended by BS 6644 which permit
the draining of the whole system, including the
boiler and any hot water storage vessel.
E.7 Circulating Pump
One or more circulating pumps will be required to
circulate water around the boilers and heating
