Appendix ‘A’. Boilers MUST NOT use gas other than
that for which they are designed and adjusted.
1.3 The ‘Fleet’ H series boiler is a floor standing, gas
fired, fully modulating, pre-mix, condensing, room
sealed central heating / hot water boiler, comprising of 8
models covering the range of 40 - 150kW output
Where the application requires more than a single boiler
output, cascade systems can be supplied in a modular
format, configured horizontally up to 4 boilers wide
sharing common water pipe work - optional HHL supply.
See figures 3.2.1 - - 3.2.5 , for typical schematic layout.
1.3.1 Using the latest gas / air ratio control technology
it is able to provide clean efficient operation across a
large output range via the Merley Boiler Sequence
Controller, ideally suited to installations that do not have
a dedicated controls installation.
The Merley control provides cascade management for
multiple boilers and simultaneous management of three
different circuits operating at different temperatures.
(radiators, dhw & under-floor heating) .
Operation is initiated and controlled by a LMU boiler
management system with a user interface LCD display
for accessing and changing boiler parameters.
1.3.2 Each of the boiler models is designed for direct
connection to a plastic flue system - HHL supply. The
Technical Data for the various arrangements is given in

connected to a single chimney, or individual modules
can be room sealed using appropriate concentric or twin
duct systems (HHL supply) up to a maximum length refer to Appendix C
No draught diverter is fitted to the boiler nor is a fixed
diverter required in the flue system.
However, for B23 applications, the Hamworthy air inlet
filter MUST be used to provide the correct clean air
supply to the boiler. Refer to Appendix C.
1.3.3 The Fleet is intended for the heating of
Commercial and Industrial premises, or large residential
properties. It may also be used to supply hot water for
these premises via an indirect cylinder.
1.4 The boiler is suitable for connection to an open vented
and un-vented (pressurised) heating system, care must
be taken to ensure all extra safety requirements are
satisfied and that the relevant interlocks will shut the boiler
(s) off should a high or low pressure fault occur.
The pressurisation unit must also incorporate a low level
water switch which protects the water pumps and will
directly or indirectly shut down the boiler plant should a
low water condition occur. Consideration should also be
given to the maximum working pressure of the boiler as
given in Appendix ’E’. Consult Hamworthy Heating
Technical Department for help or assistance if in doubt.
1.5 The Fleet boiler is not suitable for direct connection to
domestic hot water supplies.
1.7 Each Fleet boiler is supplied with a vfc contact output

4.0 SITE LOCATION AND PREPARATION
4.1 Site Location.
The boiler is heavy. Care must be taken when lifting the boiler
The floor or plinth for the boilers and pipe work kit must be both flat and level to ensure
correct alignment of fittings and connections.
The floor or plinth must be sufficiently strong to support the weight of both the boilers
and pipe work kit where used.
The floor or plinth must be fireproof in accordance with BS 6644.
The plant room must have sufficient space for installation of boilers, pipe work, pumps
controls, flues ventilation, access and servicing and other items of plant.
4.2 Gas Supply.
Gas supply pipes must be in accordance with BS 6891 or IGE/UP/2
Gas supply connections to the boiler must not be smaller than the connection on the
boiler - refer to Figure 4.2 & Appendix 2 for the connection size.
Gas installation must be soundness tested to BS 6891 or IGE/UP/1 & IGE/UP/1A.

4.3 Flue System
The Fleet flue systems supplied by Hamworthy are non UV stabilised polypropylene and
are therefore suitable for internal use only. For external flue runs and termination, either
use the dedicated kits supplied by Hamworthy or refer to a chimney specialist .
Flue termination, routing and construction must comply with the requirements of the
Clean Air Act 1956, BS 6644, BS 5440 and IGE/UP/10 where applicable.
Individual modules must be flued using the concentric or twin duct systems provided or
connected into conventional chimney system suitable for condensing application.
Fleet boilers are suitable for open flue (type B
) installation, drawing combustion air
23
from the plant room, or room sealed, twin duct (type C53) installation - see section 5.2.
For type B23 installations, the maximum number of modules firing into a common
chimney is 9. For larger installations refer to HHL Technical. The flue system must be
designed to limit the max. suction (cold) to 30Pa negative, measured at the connection to
the boiler. If the suction is greater than 30Pa, refer to HHL technical.
This condition must then be checked hot and with all boilers firing, the max. pressure at
the connection to the boiler should be 150Pa positive. In the event that the flue system
when hot does generate a suction, the max. suction is 100Pa.
For type B23 installations the Hamworthy air inlet filter MUST always be fitted .
Refer to Appendix C.
Any stabiliser fitted must be in or close to the vertical chimney.
Due to the low flue gas temperature, (~50°C) condensation will occur in the flue, flue
materials must be non-corrosive and utilise fully sealing joints.
Adequate facilities must be provided for draining the flue condensation from the flue
system using the components available from HHL - refer to Appendix C. For short flue
runs (<1m) it is not practical to provide drainage from the flue system.
Horizontal runs of flue must provide condense drainage from the flue /chimney and must
slope at 3° (50mm/m) along the horizontal length, towards the boiler. For longer flue
systems (>1m), the flue system MUST NOT drain through the boiler - see section 5.2 .
For multiple boilers into a common flue header, the common header must slope at 3°
back to the boilers and provision made to remove condensate from the header - see
section 5.2 .
Horizontal flue runs must be kept as short as possible and be inclined at minimum 3°
(50mm/m) towards the boiler.
For maximum equivalent flue lengths, refer to Appendix C.
Any flue must be self-supporting and separable from the boiler for servicing
requirements.
Note: Due to high thermal efficiency of the Fleet boiler and the resultant low flue gas
temperatures there will be visible pluming of the flue gases at the flue termination. This
is likely even when the boiler is not operating at condensing temperatures.
Fan dilution - the design must provide for the use of balancing and trim dampers,
and their location and operation must be such that the constraints detailed above
can be met. Care must be taken to ensure that the fan performance is matched to
deliver the appropriate dilution, whilst ensuring that excessive suction is not
applied to the boilers. If in doubt, refer to HHL Technical.

4.3 Flue Terminal Locations
The diagram below details the minimum spacing requirements for flue terminals from other building features when
using the concentric and twin duct flue systems (C13, C33, C53 & B23)
It is recommended that air supply inlet terminals are positioned no closer than 300mm to any flue terminal when
using C53 twin pipe flue systems. Air supply inlets should preferably be positioned lower than flue terminals.

4.4 Water Supply
Feed and Expansion tanks to comply with static height requirements of HSE
document PM5.
Cold feed and open vent pipes to comply with requirements of BS 6644.
The Fleet boiler is fitted with an integral circulating pump, which will shut off
circulation through the heat exchanger 5 minutes after the boiler has ceased firing.
The pump head available from the boiler, is only suitable for circulation in the
primary circuit. This must be acknowledged in the system design.
Pressurised system to comply with BS 7074.
Each module is supplied with a safety valve set at 6barg to protect the boiler.
It is imperative that a suitable safety valve is fitted to the installation in the event
that the system design pressure is lower than the boiler maximum operating
pressure, according to the requirements of BS6644 -2011
The Fleet boiler has an aluminium heat exchanger. It is a requirement that the
system & pipe work are flushed at least twice before adding water treatment and
before installing the boiler.
The system water MUST be treated and maintained with an appropriate inhibitor
(eg. Sentinel X100) and the PH MUST be managed between 7 & 8.5. Failure to
observe this requirement will invalidate the warranty.
In hard water areas (>180mg CaCO3/litre) precautions such as water treatment are
strongly recommended to prevent the build up of sludge and scale.
Leaks in the system pipe work MUST be fixed to prevent dilution of water
treatment.
Maximum working water pressure is 5.3bar.

accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, relevant legislation and best practice.
In the event of defect or manufacturing fault it is the buyer's responsibility to prove so, clearly established
and recognised by Hamworthy Heating Limited, the manufacturer's responsibility is as follows:
The warranty is limited to the supply of the part recognised to be faulty for a period of 5 years from date of delivery
and all transport expenses but excludes labour costs inherent to disassembly and reassembly, unless
commissioned by Hamworthy Heating Limited or an approved Sub Contractor.
THE APPLICATION OF THE WARRANTY IS SUBJECT TO:
Compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations as detailed in the operating and maintenance manual,
ensuring that the commissioning is carried out by either Hamworthy Heating Limited or a competent engineer. To
ensure that the settings and checks noted on the commissioning sheet (included in the maintenance manual) are
recorded and detailed within the boiler log book.
That the boiler maintenance is carried out by Hamworthy Heating Limited or a competent maintenance
company, the maintenance regime detail shall be provided in writing, when required, to prove compliance with the
operating and maintenance literature.
Installation requirements shall be as defined and required by UK legislation, best practice and applicable
European standards:
Water Supply
Feed and Expansion tanks to comply with static height requirements of BS6880 & BS6644.
Cold feed and open vent pipes to comply with requirements of BS 6644.
Pressurised system to comply with BS 7074.
It is required that the system pipe work is flushed twice with a suitable flushing and cleaning agent and
before the new boiler(s) are installed (for example: Sentinel X300 for new systems, or Sentinel X400 for
older systems) prior to the inclusion of water treatment
System water quality can be the cause of corrosion due to inappropriate Ph levels, oxygen presence and
heterogeneity of different metal types within the system. To avoid this, the system water may have to be treated;
the following limiting values must therefore be used for the composition of the heating water. (Please note: the
guarantee may become null and void if the installation is not flushed and/or the water quality is inadequate).
In line with the values above the following must also be taken into account:
To ensure that the system is adequately protected against any possible corrosion of copper or copper-
bearing alloys that may be present within the system. (Note: Azole should be present in treatment
chemicals to sequester the copper in solution and protect any yellow metal (i.e. copper and brass etc)
components within the system.
The use of artificially softened water MUST be avoided due to its corrosive characteristics
To ensure that any electrolytic action and subsequent corrosion is prevented. Electrolytic corrosion can
occur between dissimilar metals in the heating system, such as copper, brass, aluminium alloy and steel.
To ensure that the use of a chemical corrosion inhibitor is used to protect the entire system.
Leaks in the system pipe work MUST be fixed to prevent dilution of water treatment.
It is a condition of this warranty that the appropriate water treatment is applied and that the products used have
been found suitable for all materials used in the central heating system. Periodic inspections should be built into
the service regime and where required replacement of inhibitors is undertaken. Although there are a wide range of
water treatment products available, the following are compatible and should be considered:

Sentinel X100 (protection agent)
Sentinel X200 (lime scale remover)
Sentinel X300 (cleaning agent for new installations)
Sentinel X400 (cleaning agent for existing installations)
Sentinel X500 (antifreeze plus protection agent)
Fernox:
Restorer (cleaning agent, for removing rust, lime and sludge)
Protector (protection agent)
F1 (protection agent)
The following applies to system design:
In order to avoid thermal shock, water flow must not be able to be interrupted before the boiler stops firing.
There must be provision to ensure that the heat exchanger is not susceptible to air locks.
The air separator must be correctly sized and be equipped with an appropriate vent.
A dirt separator must be correctly sized and fitted in the return close to the boiler(s)
The system pressure must be in accordance with the information detailed within the operating and
maintenance manual (minimum 0.5 bar cold fill and 5.3 bar maximum working pressure).
A filter must be mounted on the return pipe to the boiler(s).
Minimum flow rates must be adhered to (as detailed within the operating and maintenance manual)
In particular, but not limited to, the following conditions are not covered by the 5 year heat exchanger warranty:
Defects resulting from incorrect installation, application, use, lack of the appropriate maintenance regime (in
accordance to the operating and maintenance manuals), deterioration or accident due to negligence or
involvement by an unauthorised third party.

5.0 BOILER ASSEMBLY
5.1 General
Boilers are despatched to site as fully assembled units. The flue components (where applicable) and pipe work
kit (where applicable) are the only items that will need assembling on site.
During assembly it is important to take care to prevent damage to the boiler casing.
Boiler positioning must allow the minimum clearances detailed in Section 3.0 to facilitate access for flue and pipe
work connections as well as maintenance. The boiler must be installed on a solid floor. In locating the boiler a
pallet truck is recommended so as to avoid damage to the casing parts
Health and safety. Due to the weight of the boiler, care must be taken when manoeuvring the boiler. HHL
suggest the use of a pallet truck
5.2 Water Connections
The connections provided on the boiler (refer to Appendix E and figure 4.4) are suitable for direct connection to
the system pipe work. However HHL recommend the use of individual isolating valves, which should be fitted to
each module to enable isolation from the system. However, the arrangement must comply with the requirements of
BS 6644.
When installing water system pipe work, it must be self supporting and care must be taken to ensure that undue
stress is avoided on the boiler flow and return connections. It is recommended that unions are fitted local to the
boiler and outside of the casing, to permit future servicing requirements.
Each module is fitted with safety valve rated at 6bar. The valve discharge pipe is routed to the rear of the boiler,
where it must be piped to discharge via a tundish (not HHL supply) suitably located for ease of visibility.
The Fleet is designed to operate at 20°C T across the flow and return. Should the flow rate drop, the boiler
controls will modulate the burner to maintain 20°C T. The boiler module is fitted with a single speed circulating
pump and flow is controlled through a balancing valve, which must be checked and set during commissioning. As
a safety precaution, a flow switch is fitted to the boiler heat exchanger to shut the system down in the event of
sudden adverse flow conditions.
Where using Hamworthy Heating Ltd pipe work kits, assembly of these is detailed in Instruction Manual
500005132 supplied with kit.
5.3 Flue Connection
5.3.1
The Hamworthy Fleet boiler is designed for use with the following flue systems supplied by Hamworthy - see Appendix C
80/125mm concentric room sealed, balanced flue system for rear/side through the wall discharge.100/150mm concentric, room sealed, balanced flue system for remote discharge, horizontal or vertical. 100/130 & 150mm separate air and flue ducts, room sealed, balanced flue system for remote discharge.100/130 & 150mm flue duct, for connection to an open flue (chimney) system.
Flue systems should be designed with reference to BS 5440part 1, IGE/UP/10 and Third Edition of the 1956 Clean Air
Act Memorandum.
5.3.2
Flue installations can be configured to suit a number of applications, see Appendix C, but must comply with one of the
following options:
Room Sealed.
Type C13: Horizontal balanced flue.
Type C33: Vertical balanced flue.
Type C53: Separate intake and discharge ducts terminating in different pressure zones.
Open Flue.Type B23: Intake from ventilated plant room and discharge via horizontal/vertical flue.
For room sealed applications, the flue ducts must be supplied by HHL.
For open flued applications, it is advisable to use the HHL supplied ducts to the point of conenction to a chimney.
HAMWORTHY HEATING LTD

FLEET H series
500001212/F
Page 25
It is important that horizontal flue terminal discharges are positioned in accordance with the requirements detailed
in Figure 4.3.2.
In the case of twin duct applications (C53), air supply inlets must be positioned at least 300 mm from flue
terminals to prevent flue gas re-circulation. Hamworthy Heating recommend that flue terminals discharges are
positioned higher than air inlets.
To comply with the requirements of the Clean Air Act 1956 a maximum of 150 kW may be terminated with
horizontal flue discharges.
Equivalent lengths for 90° bends and 45° bends are given in Appendix C.
5.4 Electrical Connections:
The following electrical connections are provided on each module.

7.0 CHECKS PRIOR TO LIGHTING
IMPORTANT: BEFORE PROCEEDING ENSURE THAT THE PRE-COMMISSIONING CHECKS ON PAGE 19
HAVE BEEN CARRIED OUT AND THE RESULTS SATISFACTORY.
7.1 Boiler Gas System Leak Check
Ensure that the appliance manual gas service valve is in the OFF position. Although the boiler receives a gas leak
check and gas train component integrity check prior to leaving the factory, transport and installation may have
caused disturbance to unions, fittings and gas valve assemblies etc.
A procedure guide is given below. Care must be taken not to allow leak detection fluid (if used) on or near any
electrical parts or connections.
NOTE: the test detailed below must
be carried out on each module.
Note:-
Main Gas Supply Pressures are as follows;
Natural Gas - 20mbar
TO CHECK B
1) Turn off the electrical power and gas
supply to the appliance.
2) Connect the manometer assembly to test
point (Fitted on the inlet to the gas valve).
3) With A and B closed open C and monitor
manometer over a 2 minute period, a rise
indicates a leak on valve B.
TO CHECK A
Figure 7.1 - Gas System Leak Check Diagram
1) Open C.
2) Open B to produce the mains gas supply pressure between A and B.
3) Close B.
4) System may be considered sound if over a period of 2 minutes any drop in pressure is less than 0.5 mbar (0.2" wg.).
Note:- Allow a manometer stabilisation period of approximately 1 minute before each 2 minute check period. Following
soundness tests close valve B and remove manometer connections and tighten test points.
Water Systems
The system MUST be flushed and a suitable water treatment implemented before commissioning the boiler.
When installing water system pipe work, it must be self supporting and care must be taken to ensure that undue
stress is avoided on the boiler flow and return connections. It is recommended that unions are fitted local to the
boiler and outside of the casing, to permit future servicing requirements.
Each module is fitted with safety valve rated at 6bar. The valve discharge pipe is routed to the base of the boiler,
where it must be piped to discharge via a tundish (not HHL supply) suitably located for ease of visibility.
The Fleet is designed to operate at 20°C T across the flow and return. Should the flow rate drop, the boiler
controls will modulate the burner to maintain 20°C T. The boiler module is fitted with a single speed circulating
pump and flow is controlled through a balancing valve, which must be checked and set during commissioning. As
a safety precaution, a flow switch is fitted to the boiler heat exchanger to shut the system down in the event of

Fig 7.2.2 - Gas Inlet Pressure Test Point
7.2 Checks prior to lighting the boiler
Note: Refer to Appendix A, Gas Data Tables, for
maximum inlet pressure for normal operation.
7.2.1 The Following checks must be made prior
to lighting the boiler;
1. Open the front cover to gain access to the boiler
components. The cover is secured with a 1/4 turn
latch, requiring a flat blade screw driver to operate the
latch. Carefully lift off the cover to expose the boiler
components and installer wiring connections.
Note: Before starting the boiler commissioning
procedure verify the following;
2. Ensure that all external controls are not demanding
that the boiler commences operation.
3. Ensure that the gas supply is connected, but the
boiler module gas service valve(s) are closed, any
unions or fittings are correctly tightened and test
points are closed.
4. Check that the heating system has been flushed
and refilled and that air has been purged from all high
points.
5. Ensure that the system isolating valves are in the
open position and that the water pressure within the
heating system is correct. Minimum pressure 0.5barg.
6. Ensure that the flue ducts are correctly fitted and
that they are free from obstruction. Check that the
inlet and outlet terminal are located correctly and in
accordance with regulations.
7. Ensure that the gas supply has been properly
purged and verified for gas soundness. A purge and
soundness certificate should be available from the
gas pipe work installation contractor.
8. Turn on the mains gas supply. Check that sufficient
gas pressure is available at the boiler, 17.5mbar
Natural Gas.
10.Ensure that all electrical connections made to the
boiler are correctly sized and installed. Refer to wiring
diagram in Figure 9.3.1
11 Check that the boiler controls wiring has not been
modified. Any modification could lead to boiler failure.
7.2.2 Gas inlet pressure test
The gas pressure must be checked at the inlet to the
boiler as shown in figure 7.2.2. This is to ensure that the
gas pressure is both constant and sufficient to provide
full burner output. To verify this the pressure has to be
taken as a static and a dynamic reading. The dynamic
reading cannot be taken until the boiler has been
started - refer to 7.4
A maximum difference in gas pressure of 1 mbar must
not be exceeded between static and dynamic
conditions.
7.3 Commissioning the Boiler
Once the preliminary checks have been completed and
the gas inlet pressure has been verified as correct,
commissioning of the boiler modules may begin.
7.3 Initial Lighting
Only competent persons registered for working on nondomestic gas appliances should attempt the following
operations. Before attempting to commission any boiler,
ensure that personnel involved are aware of what action
is about to be taken.
Record all readings for future reference on relevant
commissioning sheet.
Allow system to warm up sufficiently to check operation of
control thermostat.
A combustion check must be taken when first
commissioning the boiler. A sampling point is provided in
the boiler - refer to section 8.6 - Combustion Checks
7.3.1 Operational Checks
NOTE! Care should be exercised when the boiler is firing
as the heat exchanger components can achieve
temperatures, which could cause injury if touched.
1. Ensure that all external controls are in demand and that
the gas supply to the module is isolated.
2. Switch the on/off switch located on the front panel of
the boiler to the on position - see figure 8.1.
3. Start the individual boiler module using the mode
button located on the fascia panel for the chosen
module - detailed in section 8.2.5 - Controls Operation..
4. The control thermostat is set using the button (2) on the
fascia as detailed in section 8.2.5 - Controls Operation.
5. As the gas valve is closed, the low gas pressure
switch will prevent the boiler from firing and the error
code ‘E132’ will be displayed on the screen. Refer to
section 8.2.4 of Controls Operation.
6. If the above procedure occurs correctly, open the gas
isolating valve and the fault indication will extinguish.
The boiler will commence its ignition sequence as
previously described. This time, when the gas valve is
energised the burner will ignite.
7. The flame ionisation signal generated whilst the
boiler is firing (should be approximately 15-20µA, but
not less than 3µA, can be viewed directly from the
display screen. The value is set to read dc A. Refer to
section 8.2.1.2 - Controls Operation.

At the end of the ignition proving period, 5
seconds, the spark ignition system will be
switched off and the indicator on the control fascia
extinguished.
After a period of 15 seconds the fan will alter
speed and the burner modulation will be set
according to the heat load.
If after the 5 second flame proving period the
flame signal is below 3µA the boiler will shut down
and attempt one restart.
NOTE: THE BOILER IS EQUIPPED WITH A RESTART
FACILITY AND WILL ATTEMPT A SECOND
IGNITION, DURING WHICH THE ABOVE
PROCEDURES WILL BE REPEATED. AT THE END
OF THE RESTART PROCEDURE, IF NO FLAME IS
DETECTED AFTER THE FLAME PROVING PERIOD,
THE BOILER WILL LOCKOUT. THE BOILER WILL
NOT OPERATE UNTIL THE LOCKOUT HAS BEEN
MANUALLY RESET.
7.4 Ignition Controller Check.
1. With the burner firing, the flame signal should be at
least 3µA. Refer to Figure 8.2.9 - Maintenance functions. To check for correct operation of the ignition
controller, close the gas valve. The boiler should
shutdown after approximately one second and attempt a
re-ignition. Check that the flame has been extinguished
2. Alternatively, the flame probe lead can be removed
from the end of the flame probe, with the same result.

Fig 7.2.1 - On/Off switch
7.5 Gas Supply Pressure Check.
1. When the boiler modules have been checked for correct operation the gas supply pressure should be checked.
This should be done with all modules firing.
For Natural Gas, a nominal gas inlet pressure of 20mbar measured at the rear of the boiler is required, with
a maximum inlet pressure of 25mbar.
7.6 Combustion Checks
“The boiler modules are factory pre-set, but, site checks must be done to confirm correct performance.”
1. Remove the flue gas sampling plug from the flue
collector sump, accessible from the front of the boiler
and insert the combustion analyser probe in the flue at
the analysis point .
2. Ensure that an insertion distance of 50mm is set on
the combustion analyser probe.
NOTE: THIS DISTANCE MUST BE SET TO ENSURE
ACCURATE ANALYSIS OF FLUE GASES.
3. Insert probe horizontally into the flue elbow until

8. Refer to section 8.1 - Controls Operation, to adjust the relevant boiler settings specific to the installation
7.7 Setting the flow rate to achieve 20°C ∆T
Before commissioning is complete, the flow rate must be checked and adjusted. A ball valve is located on the boiler return
pipe, prior to the pump, and controls the flow through the boiler. Using the boiler flow and return temperature sensors visible on the display via the LMU programme. This MUST be carried out with the boiler running at maximum firing rate.
The 20°C T condition across the boiler must be set as follows;
1 Run boiler at maximum rate.
2 Monitor flow temperature (displayed on main screen of HMI).
3 As boiler flow temperature rises, between 60°C & 80°C , press info button (to enter information mode) then
hold down up/down arrows for 3 seconds (to enter extended information mode) use + button to scroll to b1
which displays boiler return temperature.
4 Within the case, locate the ball valve on the return pipe of the boiler, and then adjust to give 20°C differential between flow and return temperature. Opening the valve will decrease the differential/closing the valve
will increase the differential.
Press mode button to exit back to main screen and check flow temperature. It may be necessary to repeat the
sequence several times to ensure an accurate 20°C delta T is set.

8.3 - Functions
8.3.1 Frost Protection
Note: - to access this function, the circulating pump
must be wired to the LMU through a suitable
contactor.
There are two levels of frost protection available
dependent on the sensor options used.
1st stage - When the boiler water temperature is
below 5°C, the burner and the heating pump are
switched on. When the temperature increases and
exceeds 15°C, the burner stops and the pump
continues for the duration of the pump overrun.
2nd stage - This additional function uses the outside
air temperature (if a sensor has not been fitted, the
function is blocked) and provides three levels of
activation.
If the outside temperature is less than or equal
to –5°C, the pump operates continuously
If the outside temperature is between –4 & 1.5°
C, the pump operates for 10 minutes every 6
hours.
If the outside temperature is greater than 1.5°C,
the pump is switched off.
Note:- any demand for dhw is given priority.
Should protection be required for the building fabric,
then a QAA73 programmable room sensor must be
used to maintain the internal building temperature.
8.3.2 Anti Legionella
To prevent the development of pathogenic bacteria in
the domestic hot water tank during prolonged shut
downs or low storage temperatures, the dhw must be
heated once a week to a temperature greater than 60°
C.
The anti legionella function heats the dhw once a
week on Monday, after the first load, to 65°C.
8.3.3 Pump overrun
When the heating mode ends, the heating circuit
pump remains on for a period (depending on the
settings used - QAA73: 544).
In dhw systems, when the dhw heating period ends,
the heating pump remains on until the return
temperature drops below 70°C. During this period, the
dhw selector valve (if fitted) is in the open position.
8.3.4 Pump or selector valve kick
If either the heating circuit pump or dhw selector valve
have not been activated for more than 24hours, then
during an off period the pump or valve is activated for
5 seconds.
8.3.5 Boiler overheat protection
The boiler flow sensor in combination with the return
sensor, provide overheat protection as follows:
If the first level temperature is exceeded, a fault
code is displayed.
If the second level temperature is exceeded, an
alarm code is displayed and the boiler will switch
off. The boiler must be reset to restart.
To restart the boiler, the temperature must fall,
accordingly the fan and pump will continue to operate
until the boiler heat exchanger temperature drops.
Additionally, should the T across the boiler heat
exchanger exceed 25°C, the burner will reduce output
to minimum rate. Should the T exceed 30°C, the
burner will shutdown.
8.3.6 Anti-cycling
Dependent on the installation and the minimum firing
rate of the boiler, the control monitors the heating
temperature curve and will hold off a boiler from firing
and thus reduce the number of operations.
8.3.7 Automatic summer / winter switching
Note: - This function is only available when an outside
sensor is fitted.
The automatic summer/ winter switching function
enables the summer mode to be switched to winter
mode (vice versa) throughout the year, without the
need for manual intervention.
The heating is shut down when the average outside
temperature measured over the preceding 24hours is
greater than 1°C above the set point (20°C).
The heating is automatically started up again when the
average outside temperature measured over the
preceding 24hours is less than 1°C below the lower
limit of the hysteresis threshold of the set point (18°
C).
Note: - The switch over setting is set to 19°C and can
only be changed using the QAA73 room sensor.
The automatic mode must obviously be activated on
the boiler as well as on the QAA73, for the function to
operate. The function is automatically activated by a
default setting in the QAA73.
8.3.8 - Start-up / initialisation
On startup after power-On, or after a lockout reset, the
setpoints will be initialized.
These setpoints apply until a first adjustment is made
(e.g. via the display or PC parameterization):
After a readjustment, these values will be overwritten
with the new value and permanently stored in the LMU.
When a new startup is made, or after power-On, the
previous settings will be stored in the LMU.
Also, the software version number of the operator
module and that of the connected type of LMU... will be
delivered to the display.

8.3.9 - BMS 0~10v DC control of LMU
Before programming changes are made, ensure the boiler is set to standby mode.
The following parameters need to be changed on the boiler LMU when a BMS 0-10 V signal is being used to
control the boiler modules directly. All parameters can be changed using the keypad on the boiler display panel or
via the computer link using the Siemens software.
Press and hold both up and down arrow keys for at least five seconds to enter advanced parameter list H90
displayed top right of HMI screen.
Use either up or down arrow key to scroll through the parameter list and stop at H618 - Default value is 0
Two options for control are available :
Option 1 (
preferred option for multiple boilers on a modulating 0-10V signal controlling the load)
To enable 0-10v control over the boiler power range, change the setting by using the + or – key and set value to
5. Press mode button to store change and return to home screen.
Option 2 (
if the 0-10V signal is only being used to enable the boilers and is not modulating)
To enable 0-10v control over the boiler temperature set point, change the setting by using the + or – key and set
value to 4. Press mode button to store change and return to home screen
Press and hold both up and down arrow keys for at least five seconds to enter advanced parameter list H90
displayed top right of HMI screen.
Use either up or down arrow key to scroll through the parameter list and stop at H622 - Default value is 80
Change this value to match the required flow temperature set point at maximum (10v) e.g. 80 = 80°C max set
point. Press mode button to store change and return to home screen
0-10v signal wiring can now be connected to connections 15 and 16 of the terminal rail to control the boiler.
Boiler PC Req’d setting Function
618 526 4 0–10 V - temperature

622 528 As req’d (80°C) Max temp = 10 V
623 529 As req’d (20%) Min % load = 20 %
It may be necessary, depending on the operating temperature required, to raise the maximum operating
temperature possible from the individual boiler modules. As standard the boiler modules leave the factory with a
maximum operating temperature of 85°C. Where a higher operating temperature is required the following
parameter change must be made.
505 181 As req’d (90°C) Max operating temp.
8.3.10 - Access to LMU Fault
Log
The LMU control retains
historical fault information of the
last 6 faults, as read only via the
Engineer level access.
The current fault relates to the
actual lockout at the time of the
visit. Once reset, the current
fault becomes the 1st fault and
the remaining history is shifted
back to the 5th fault, losing the
previous 5th fault history.
The Albatros code is the ‘E’
display code supported by the
internal code

9.0 FAULT FINDING
The Fleet boiler is equipped with full self-diagnostic fault indication, with faults allocated a code, which is
displayed (flashes) on the display - refer to section 8.3.9 - Maintenance functions.
The common fault codes are detailed in section 8.3.9 - Maintenance functions.. Fault codes not detailed in this
manual should only be investigated by an Engineer.
Should a fault code appear which cannot be reset, or a fault code repeatedly occurs,
contact Hamworthy Heating for assistance. Do not continue to operate or use the boiler
as this may cause damage to the controls.
9.1 Safety Temperature Limiter (Limit Thermostat)
1. The electronic control thermostat has several safety levels built in such that a controlled shutdown should occur
before the safety temperature limiter is activated. Should these safety levels be overridden (say external pump
overrun failure after shutdown) the safety temperature limiter will trip initiating a boiler shutdown, preventing the
boiler from firing. The code (110) on the controls display will flash indicating that the safety temperature limiter has
tripped.
2. The safety temperature limiter is auto reset located on the top rear of the heat exchanger block. Once the
boiler has cooled to normal operating temperature, pushing the reset pushbutton on the display (refer to section
8.1.1 - Controls Operation) will reset the lockout. Should the lockout code not extinguish and the boiler does not
fire up, it is possible that the safety temperature limiter will not reset because the boiler is still too hot.
3. Always carry out an investigation to ascertain the reason for overheating. The most common cause of
overheating is lack of water flow rate through the boiler possibly caused by a faulty pump or blockage in the heat
exchanger circuit due to system debris.
9.2 Water Flow Switch
1. The water flow switch is located in the return pipe
before the pump and the heat exchanger (see figure 9.2)
and will prevent the boiler from firing should there be inadequate or no water flow. This is to protect the heat exchanger from damage in the absence of water (dry firing)
which will cause catastrophic failure of the heat exchanger.
2. The operation of the flow switch can be checked by
closing one of the isolating valves connecting the boiler
to the system, this will generate error E164 on the LMU
display.
Figure 9.2 - Water Flow Switch
9.3 Ignition Controller
1. The flame is under constant supervision by the burner ignition controller. The controller monitors the flame’s
ability to rectify an AC current. If the flame diminishes for whatever reason and the rectified current drops below
the controller’s minimum detection current (3µA DC), the controller will de-energise the gas control valve within 1
second and commence a restart. Failure to establish and detect a flame during the light-up sequence will result in
burner shutdown and lockout within 5 seconds, requiring a manual reset to restart the ignition sequence. Refer to
section 8.3.9—Maintenance functions..
2. If the boiler continues to lockout, then an investigation must be made to ascertain the cause. Refer to figure
8.3.10 - Operating faults, for possible causes of lockout.
3. A false flame signal at the start and during pre-purge will cause the boiler module to restart its ignition sequence at the end of the pre-purge period. If this occurs 3 times in succession the controls will disable operation
of the boiler module, requiring reset of the module. Refer to section 8.3.10 - Operating faults

10 SERVICING
A competent person registered for working on non
domestic gas appliances should check and ensure that
the flue, its support and terminal, the ventilation to the
boiler house, 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 codes of practice - see Section 4.
10.1 Regular servicing is recommended, preferably
by a Hamworthy appointed person, and at least
annually, to ensure trouble free operation.
For Fleet boilers, Hamworthy would recommend an
additional 6 monthly examination following
commissioning, acknowledging site conditions and
running hours.
Although cleaning of flueways may not be necessary on
a yearly basis, it is important that all controls and safety
features are checked for correct operation.
Note:- Measuring flue gas CO
and gas temperatures
2
will give an indication of the state of the boiler flueways
and waterways. Results should be compared with
previously measured values to establish possible loss of
efficiency.
10.2 Annual Service
Before servicing the boiler, the following procedure must
be carried out :-
WARNING: Isolate all electrical supplies and turn off
the gas service valve.
1) Open the front casing by turning the 1/4 turn latches
with a flat bladed screw driver. Note the latch
mechanism passes through slots in the chassis top and
bottom.
Once removed access is gained to the controls panel,
the heat exchanger components and the combustion
system assembly.
2) Disconnect the H.T and flame probe connectors from
the respective probes.
3) Disconnect the fan power supply and control leads
from the fan taking care with the latch on each
connector.
4) Check that the gas service valve is closed, then undo
the compression union on the inlet to the gas valve.
5) Carefully disengage the flexible air inlet duct from the
venturi and remove the electrical plug from the gas
valve.
6) Remove the 3 M6 socket head screws securing the
fan /burner duct assembly to the heat exchanger and
carefully remove the assembly and the sealing gasket.
Carefully remove the burner from the heat exchanger,.
7) Remove and inspect H.T. electrode and flame probe,
ensure they are free from debris or deposits. – See
Figures 10.2. 10.2.1 & 10.2.2
8) Check the burner and clean using a soft brush if
required (if possible use a vacuum cleaner to remove
the dust from inside the burner tube). After cleaning the
inside, the burner tube can be washed using a soapy
water solution. Tap the burner flange firmly downwards
on a block of wood to dislodge any residual debris from
inside the burner tube. A damaged or cracked burner
should be replaced.
Note:- Do not use a wire brush to clean the burner.
9) Carefully remove the insulation pad from the heat
exchanger back plate (accessed through the burner
cavity) and replace with a new pad ensuring the edges
are ‘tucked in’ to the gap past the last section
10) Separate the gas valve / venturi from the fan inlet
noting it’s orientation and inspect the fan scroll and
impellor, clean and check for damage.
11) Clean and check the venturi for contamination.
12) Remove the fan from the burner duct and inspect
the non return valve in the duct for smooth operation.
13) Separate the inlet flange /elbow fitting from the gas
control valve by removing the 4 M5 socket cap head
screws. Check that the mesh inlet filter in the gas valve
is clear of debris, remove any foreign objects caught in
the filter.
Re-assemble in reverse order taking care to inspect and
if necessary, replace any o-rings, gaskets or seals.
Refer to Section 8, Commissioning and Testing, and
test all gas joints broken or disturbed for soundness
before firing.
Carry out a combustion check by testing the flue gas
CO
and CO levels as detailed in Section 8.2.

10.3 Four Year Service
Repeat the annual service as previously described but
do not refit any components to the heat exchanger.
Isolate the boiler flow and return connections from the
heating system.
10.3.1 To clean the heat exchanger, the use of a high
pressure water hose (40-80 psi) is recommended for
the primary flue gas path. However provision must be
made for the drainage of water used in this process. At
the rear of the boiler remove the condensate drain trap
assembly from the flue elbow. Connect a hose (32mm
id.) to the flue elbow and take to a suitable drain or
receptacle. The cleaning water and any debris will exit
the sump through this opening.
To clean the condensing flue gas path, isolate the boiler
from the heating system and drain the boiler heat
exchanger using the drain valve provided in the return
pipe. Disconnect the electrical supply to the pump,
return sensor and the flow switch. Carefully support the
pump, disconnect the unions and remove the pump.
Remove the 2 M6 screws securing the return elbow /
pipe assembly to the heat exchanger and carefully
remove the assembly.
Remove the 4 screws (M8) securing the heat
exchanger assembly to the chassis backplate.
Disconnect the heat exchanger flow connection from
the heating system and the flue pipe from the sump
elbow and carefully slide the heat exchanger assembly

IMPORTANT: Individual boilers must be earthed.
The boiler must be isolated from the mains electricity supply in the event of electric arc
welding being carried out on any connecting pipe work.
1. Wiring external to the boiler must be installed in accordance with the IEE Regulations and any local regulations
which apply. Wiring must be completed in heat resistant 3-core cable of 1.0mm² cross sectional area. Boilers are
normally supplied for connection to a 230 volts, 50Hz mains supply. The boiler control is supplied with a
replaceable fuse (T4A). External fuses should be 6A for all boilers.
2. 3-Phase Electrical Supplies. Individual modules of Fleet boilers and any boilers installed in close proximity to
each other MUST NOT be supplied from different phases of a 3 phase supply. The method of connection to the
mains electricity supply must facilitate complete electrical isolation of the single boiler / battery with a separation of
at least 3mm in all poles.
3. A mains isolator must be provided adjacent to the boiler in a readily accessible position. The supply should only
serve the boiler.
4. Multiple modules. It is highly recommended that each boiler is connected via its own mains isolator to facilitate
servicing and maintenance of the individual boiler whilst leaving the remaining boilers in operation.
5. Further details regarding connection to the electricity supply are given in BS EN 60335, Part 1 or BS 3456, Part
201.
WARNING: THE MAINS POWER SUPPLY MUST NOT BE SWITCHED
BY A TIME-CLOCK CONTROL.
CAUTION: DO NOT FEED MAINS VOLTAGE ONTO THE TIMER TERMINALS
6. The mains power supply must be maintained at all times. Each Fleet boiler module incorporates a remote
enable link, which can be used to operate the boiler(s) under a timed regime. The boiler controls provide a 24V
DC signal that can be fed through a volt free contact for operation. Refer to BS 6644 for further information on
installing the electrical supply.
7. The integral pump in Fleet boilers is managed by the LMU boiler control.

C1.0 FLUE SYSTEM
1. Detailed recommendations for flue systems are given in BS 6644, and IGE/UP/10. All flue discharges for plant
exceeding 150kW output must comply with the third edition of the 1956 Clean Air Act Memorandum.
WARNING: THE FLUE DISCHARGE FROM A FLEET BOILER WILL GENERATE A PLUME
AT THE TERMINAL EXIT. THIS MUST BE CONSIDERED WITH REGARD TO TERMINAL
LOCATION AND ADJACENT BUILDING FABRIC.
FOR ALL B23 INSTALLATIONS THE HHL SUPPLIED AIR INLET FILTER (Pt. No. 532812008) MUST BE
FITTED
C1.1 General Requirements
The Fleet boilers are designed to be used with natural draught or room sealed flues. Flue systems should be
designed in accordance with regulations and with reference to BS 6644 and IGE/UP/10.
The following points should be noted:
a. Due to the high thermal efficiency of the boiler, condensation will occur in the flue. It is strongly recommended
that the design of the flue system recognises this. HHL supply plastic flue components and suitable terminals to
discharge the flue gases safely. The Fleet flue systems supplied by Hamworthy are non UV stabilised polypropylene
and are therefore suitable for internal use only. For external flue runs and termination, either use the dedicated kits
supplied by Hamworthy or refer to a chimney specialist .
b. Care should be taken to ensure that the flue is installed such that any condensation is continuously drained.
Any flue system with a horizontal section should have a maximum slope of 3° upwards in the direction of the
exhaust gas flow. All joints should be such that any condensation is directed back down the slope to an open
drain connection in the flue. The drain pipe must be manufactured from a corrosion resistant material and at least
15mm diameter. It must have a fall of at least 3° (approx. 50mm/meter) and connect to a drain via a waste trap.
c. Boiler flue outlet sizes - A flue system designed with the same diameter as the boiler flue outlet may not provide
satisfactory performance in all applications. Consideration must be given to the correct calculation of the required
flue size. If in any doubt consult Hamworthy Heating Ltd who can supply a full flue design and installation service.
C1.2 Waste Gas Volume and Temperature.
It is recommended that the volume and temperature of the waste gases used for design of the flue system are as
given in the above tables.
HAMWORTHY HEATING LTD
51
FLEET H series
500001212/F
Page 58
C1.3 Materials.
Materials used for the flue system must be mechanically robust, resistant to internal and external corrosion, noncombustible and durable under the conditions to which they are likely to be subjected. Consideration must be
given to avoid possible freezing of condense water traps and pipe work.
C1.4 Suction
The flue system must be designed acknowledging that there is a positive pressure generated by the boiler combustion
fan. Refer to table Appendix C.
The flue system must be designed to limit the max. suction (cold) to 30Pa negative, measured at the connection to the
boiler. If the suction is greater than 30Pa, refer to HHL technical. This condition must then be checked hot and with all
boilers firing, the max. pressure at the connection to the boiler should be 150Pa positive.
In the event that the flue system when hot does generate a suction, the max. suction is 100Pa.
Any stabiliser fitted must be in or close to the vertical chimney.
C1.5 Disconnection
Provisions should be made for disconnection of the flue pipe for servicing. It is advisable that bends are fitted
with removable covers for inspection and cleaning as appropriate.
WARNING: THE FLUE SYSTEM MUST BE SELF SUPPORTING AND NOT PRESENT
A RISK TO PEOPLE IN OR AROUND THE BUILDING.
C1.6 Flue Discharge
The flue system must ensure safe and efficient operation of the boiler protecting the combustion process from
wind effects and dispersing the products of combustion to the external air. The flue must terminate in a freely
exposed position and be so situated as to prevent the products of combustion entering any opening in a building.
Where the flue diameter is less than 204mm (8”) diameter a terminal must be fitted. Where the flue is of a larger
size, consideration should be given to the fitting of a flue discharge terminal or grille to stop ingress of birds etc.
C1.7 Surface Temperatures
Combustible materials in the vicinity of the boiler and flue shall not exceed 65°C during boiler operation. The flue
shall not be closer than 50mm to any combustible material, except where it passes through such material with a
non-combustible sleeve when the air gap may not be less than 25mm.
C1.8 Location
The flue system must not be placed or fitted where there is undue risk of accidental damage to the flue pipe or
undue danger to persons in the vicinity. Check that the flue and chimney are clear from any obstruction. Fleet
boilers are suitable for installation in a balanced compartment in accordance with the requirements of BS 6644.
Consult Hamworthy Heating Technical Department for help or assistance if in doubt.
For B23 applications the HHL supplied air inlet filter (Pt. No. 532812008) must be fitted to the boiler to ensure
the correct air inlet requirements.
C1.9. Condensate Discharge
Due to the high thermal efficiency of the boiler, condensation will occur within the boiler casing during firing from
cold conditions. A drain with an integral trap is fitted to each module suitable for connection to a 40mm o.d.
plastic waste pipe (not Hamworthy Heating Ltd supply), which must be connected to a tundish (not Hamworthy
Heating Ltd supply). Discharge piping from a tundish should be of synthetic material due to the mild acidity of the
condensate (pH3-5), with all discharge piping having a minimum fall of 50mm/m away from the boiler.
Consideration should be given to possible freezing of condense water traps and pipe work. This must be avoided
at all times by routing pipe work within the building, where possible.
In addition to the above, should the plastic flue system supplied discharge into a metallic chimney system, any
condensate formed in the chimney MUST NOT drain back through the plastic components to the boiler. A
separate drain for the chimney system must be provided.

In the instance that a B53 flue (ducted air inlet) is connected to a cascade (B23 outlet), the air inlet filters need not
be fitted and therefore can be discarded.
Concentric Flue - Cuttable extension pieces
When cutting a concentric flue extension piece,
care must be taken to ensure that the inner section is always cut 10mm longer than the outer
section to allow sections to be joined correctly.
Do not cut all the way through both sections at
the same length. Cut the outer section first and
then the inner section 10mm longer.

APPENDIX D - VENTILATION
D1.1 Air Supply
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in BS 6644 and BS5440 Pt 2. The following notes are intended
to give general guidance. In all cases there must be provision for an adequate supply of air for both combustion
and general ventilation, in addition to that required for any other appliance.
Note: For Open flue applications, combustion air for the boiler is drawn through the top of the boiler casing. The
air inlets must be kept open and free from blockage at all times.
D1.2.1 Air Supply by Natural Ventilation - Open Flue applications
The boiler room must have, or be provided with, permanent air vents directly to the outside air, at high level and at
low level. For an exposed boiler house, air vents should be fitted, preferably on all four sides, but at the least on
two sides. Air vents should have negligible resistance and must not be sited in any position where they are likely
to be easily blocked or flooded or in any position adjacent to an extraction system which is carrying flammable
vapour. Grilles or louvres must be so designed that high velocity air streams do not occur within the space
housing the boiler.
Boiler house ventilation
Low level (inlet) - 4cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
High level (output) - 2cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
Compartment ventilation
Where the boiler is to be installed in a cupboard or compartment, permanent high and low level ventilation is
required which must communicate direct to outside, for cooling purposes.
Low level (inlet) - 10cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
High level (output) - 5cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
D1.2.2 Air Supply by Natural Ventilation - Room Sealed Installations
Where the boiler(s) are to be installed in a boiler room or internal space, the room or internal space must have
permanent air vents directly to the outside air, at high level and at low level with the general requirements detailed
above on location and construction.
Boiler house ventilation
Low level (inlet) - 2cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
High level (output) - 2cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
Compartment ventilation
Where the boiler is to be installed in a cupboard or compartment, permanent high and low level ventilation is
required which may communicate to an adjoining room or outside, for cooling purposes.
Ventilation to a room or internal space - 10cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
Ventilation direct to outside - 5cm² per kW of total rated input (Net)
D1.3 Air Supply by Mechanical Ventilation
Air supplied to the boiler room by Mechanical means should be as follows:
1) Mechanical ventilation must be interlocked with the boilers to prevent operation in
the event of ventilation fan failure
2) Mechanical inlet and mechanical extract can be utilised providing the design
extraction rate does not exceed one third of the design inlet rate.
3) Mechanical extract ventilation with natural inlet ventilation MUST NOT be used.
For Mechanical ventilation systems an automatic control should be provided to cut off the gas supply to the boiler,
in the event of failure of air flow in either inlet or extract fans.

D 1.4. Boiler House Temperatures
The air supplied for boiler house ventilation shall be such that the maximum temperatures within the boiler house
shall be as follows:
At floor level (or 100mm above floor level) = 25°C.
At mid-level (1.5m above floor level) = 32°C.
At ceiling level (or 100mm below ceiling level) = 40°C.
D 1.5. General Requirements
The air supply should be free from contamination such as building dust and insulation fibres from lagging. To
avoid unnecessary cleaning and servicing of the boiler modules, the boilers should not be fired whilst building
work is being undertaken.
High and low level ventilation grilles shall be positioned as high and as low as practicably possible. Low level
grilles should be located within 1 metre of the floor for Natural Gas. High level grilles should be positioned within
15% of the boiler room height from the ceiling. High and low level grilles shall communicate with the same room or
space where compartment ventilation is used. Where grilles communicate directly with outside air, they shall be
positioned on the same wall.

Water content (not including headers) - litres 4.0 4.0 5.0 5.0
The Fleet boiler has a low water content and the requirements of minimum water flow are given in the above
table. To ensure these minimum requirements are achieved each boiler is fitted with an integral pump for
circulation through the boiler and primary circuit supplemented by an integral flow switch. Recommendations for
the water circulation system are given in BS 6644 and CP 342.
The following details are of particular importance for the correct installation of the water circulation system:
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”) thick mineral fibre, or its thermal equivalent.
2) Circulating pipe work not forming part of the useful heating surface should be insulated to help
prevent heat loss and possible freezing, particularly where pipes are run through roof spaces and
ventilated cavities. Cisterns situated in areas which may be exposed to freezing conditions should
also be insulated. Furthermore, insulation exposed to the weather should be rendered waterproof.
3) Drain valves must be located in accessible positions which permit the draining of the whole system,
including the boiler and hot water storage vessel.
4) Each boiler module has flow and return connections as detailed in the table above. Multiple boilers
should be connected by flow and return headers. Hamworthy strongly recommend that boilers are
connected in a primary circuit configuration utilising a low loss header arrangement to enable
secondary circuits to be connected to the header. Figure E1.1.1 on the following page show typical
layouts.
5) Ideally, individual valves should be fitted to each module to enable isolation from the system,
E1.2 Pressure Relief Valve (Safety Valve)
however, the arrangement must comply with the requirements of BS 6644.
The most important single safety device fitted to a boiler is its safety valve. Each boiler module is provided with an
integral safety valve terminating at the return pipe at the rear of the boiler. BS 6644 provides comprehensive
information for the selection and location of safety valves and attention is drawn to the higher capacity
requirements of safety valves for pressurised hot water systems.
E1.3 Altitude Gauge (Water Pressure Gauge)
Every boiler or group of boilers should be provided with an altitude gauge complete with isolating valve. See
Figure E1.1.1 for typical position.
E1.4 Open Vent and Cold Feed Pipe.
Every boiler or group of boilers should 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 pipes per installation is shown in the table. The
HAMWORTHY HEATING LTD
62
FLEET H series
500001212/F
Page 69
vent pipe must rise continually, any valve fitted between a boiler and the open vent pipe for maintenance
purposes shall be of the 3 way type such that when closed to the vent pipe the boiler will be open to atmosphere.
The vent pipe shall be protected against freezing where this might occur. See BS 6644 for detailed information on
Open Vent and Cold Feed Pipes.
E1.5 Thermometer
A thermometer complete with pocket should be fitted in the pipe work to indicate water flow temperature. See
Figure E1.1.1 for typical position.
E1.6 Drain Valves
Each boiler has a 15mm NB drain valve fitted in the boiler return, for draining the boiler only. The heating system
in total should have drain valves as recommended by BS 6644. See Figure E1.1.1 for typical position.
E1.7 Circulating Pump
Each individual boiler is fitted with an integral circulating pump ensuring flow through the boiler and primary circuit. To
ensure the correct flow through the boiler, there is a balancing valve fitted to the flow pipe within the boiler. This is factory
set and must not be adjusted.
One or more circulating pumps will be required to circulate water around the heating system. All pumps should be
sited to facilitate servicing. It is important that when Fleet boilers are used to replace boilers on an existing
system, the system design must be modified acknowledging the performance of the integral circulating pump.. It is
also important that the existing system be flushed through twice to remove any loose matter which may have
accumulated. To protect the boiler heat exchanger, it is strongly recommended that a dirt/air separator is fitted in
the return to the boiler. If in any doubt regarding the cleanliness of the system, a coarse filter should be fitted in
E1.8 Minimum Water Flow Rates
Minimum water flow rates are shown in table at beginning of Appendix E. These flow rates should be maintained
through the boiler at all times whilst the boiler is firing. To prevent the boiler firing in the event of poor or no flow,
the boiler is fitted with an integral flow switch. Particular attention should be paid to the restriction of external flow
circuits during periods of low heat demand.
Each boiler module is fitted with a flow balancing valve on the return pipe within the unit. This valve may require
adjustment to ensure the correct flow through the boiler - refer to commissioning instructions Section 7.7
E1.9 Waterside Pressure Drop
The waterside hydraulic resistance (Pressure drop) is given in table at beginning of Appendix E.
E1.10 Water Flow Controls
The Fleet boiler is fitted with an integral circulating pump, which will shut off circulation 5 minutes after the boiler
has ceased firing.
Any external mixing valve / shunt pump or similar controls MUST always ensure that the minimum water flow rate
as given in table at beginning of Appendix E is maintained. As a precaution, the Fleet boiler is fitted with a flow
switch. The flow switch is designed to operate such that the boiler will shut down if insufficient flow occurs.
E1.11 Frost Protection
Consideration should be given to fitting an optional outside air sensor, to provide the necessary frost protection.
E1.12 Unvented Systems
Refer to Figure E1.1.1 on opposite page for typical layout of an unvented (Pressurised) Hot Water System. For
system design refer to BS 7074 Part 2. In order to correctly size a pressurisation unit for any heating system the
following parameters are required.
1) Static height of highest component in system (metres)
2) System volume. If this is not known, a general rule of thumb of 10litres/kW of installed boiler power
can be used.
3) Maximum flow temperature (°C)
4) Maximum system hot working pressure, generally given in bar gauge.
From the parameters given, Hamworthy Heating can size the pressurisation unit and also the expansion vessel.
Care must be taken in sizing expansion vessels to ensure maximum acceptance factors are not exceeded.
Normally manufacturers of vessels impose a limit of 0.5. This value must not be exceeded at any time during the
operation of the boiler, this includes the over pressure condition should a safety valve lift.
Consideration should also be given to sizing of the safety valve(s) in the system. Refer to BS 6759: Part 1 for
