DESCRIPTION
3rd pass
2nd pass
1st pass
Clean combustion
With the proven three-pass
technique, the hot combustion
gases are immediately moved out
of the high- temperature zone.
The ame temperature is reduced,
and the pollutant emissions are
minimised.
Low operating costs of the Hoval
3-pass boiler can be taken for
granted
The Hoval three-pass boiler
transforms the energy stored in oil
and gas into valuable heat with
impressive efciency – this is
demonstrated in a full load boiler
efciency in excess of 95 %.
You, as the investor, will benet from
this high efciency in the form of
substantially lower heating costs.
The excellent insulation of the boiler
lowers the stand-by losses and
further reduces the energy
consumption of the system.
Maximum operating temperature is
90°C or 105°C depending on control
panel type.
Burners
It is Hoval policy to supply boilers
with matched burners from several
recognised manufacturers.
Details of gas pressures, noise
levels, gas boosters, acoustic
shrouds etc. are given on individual
quotations. Dual fuel burners are
available on request.
Intelligent command centre for
your heating system
The TopTronic®E control is the brain
of every Hoval system. Innovative
touchscreen technology ensures
smooth, and continuously monitored
operation.
With the addition of an optional
Gateway module, remote access is
available from your PC, tablet or
smartphone.
Additionally, fault and other
notications can be e-mailed to your
mobile phone, so you can always be
in touch with your system.
Installation wherever you want
it!
The compact dimensions of the
boiler means that the Max-3 plus
is perfect for plant rooms with low
ceilings.

DESCRIPTION
Dimpled tubes – Hoval’s patented develop-
ment for constant high efciency
The unique design of the dimpled tubes allows a guaranteed
and permanent turbulence of the ue gases. This results in
an optimised heat transfer and keeps the combustion
efciency constantly high. Additional retarders are tted
for enhanced efciency.
Control panel
Fitted with microprocessor-based TopTronic®E
operating controls.
Hinged door simplies servicing
Servicing the Hoval Max-3 plus’ combustion
components is made easier thanks to the hinged boiler door. The service technician has access to the
combustion chamber and to the burner head. The
handing of the boiler door can be changed to suit
site layout.
Insulated hinged front door
for easy cleaning and quick access to
the combustion chamber. An optional
burner acoustic shroud is available to
reduce noise level to a minimum.

ENGINEERING
Regulations and guidelines
The following regulations and guidelines must
be observed:
– Hoval technical information and installation
instructions.
– Relevant British Standards and Guidelines.
Hydraulic and technical control regulations.
Water quality
Heating water:
– European standard BSEN 14868:2005
and VDI guideline 2035 must be observed.
Particular note must be taken of the
following regulations.
– Hoval boilers and water heaters are suitable
for heating systems without significant
oxygenation (system type 1 in accordance
below with BSEN 14868:2005).
– Systems with;
– Continuous oxygenation (e.g. floor
heating without diffusion-proof plastic
pipes) or,
– Intermittent oxygenation (e.g. frequent
topping up required) must be fitted with a
system separator.
– Treated heating water must be checked at
least once per year or more frequently as
specified by the inhibitor manufacturer.
– If, in the case of existing systems (e.g.
boiler replacement), the water quality of the
existing heating water complies with VDI
2035, it is not recommended that the system
be refilled. VDI 2035 also applies to top-up
water.
– Before filling new systems, or, if applicable,
existing systems, the heating system must
be professionally cleaned and flushed. The
heating system must be flushed before the
boiler is filled.
– Components of the boiler / heat exchanger
that come into contact with water are made
of ferrous materials.
– Due to the risk of stress corrosion cracking,
the combined chloride, nitrate and sulphate
content of the heating water must not
exceed a total of 200mg/l.
– Once the heating has been in operation for
6–12 weeks, the pH value of the heating
water should be between 8.3 and 9.5.
Water for filling and topping up the system:
– Untreated drinking water is generally most
suitable for filling and topping up a system
with a Hoval boiler. However, the water
quality of the untreated drinking water must
always comply with VDI 2035 or must be
demineralised and/or treated with inhibitors.
The specifications of BSEN 14868:2005
must be observed.
– In order to maintain the boiler’s high
efficiency level and to avoid overheating of
the heating surfaces, the values in the table
Important Notes!
A condensate trap must be fitted on the
boiler flue outlet to prevent condensate
entering the boiler.
A condensate drain point is provided in the
flue outlet smoke box and this should be
piped to drain via a drain trap to prevent flue
gases escaping. No isolating valve should
be fitted in this pipework.
below must not be exceeded. These values
are calculated in relation to the boiler output
(the smallest individual boiler in the case
of multiple boiler systems) and the water
content of the system.
– The total quantity of water used to fill and
top up the system during the boiler’s life
must not exceed a value equivalent to three
times the water content of the system.
Heating system
Combustion air
– A suitable supply of combustion air must be
guaranteed. It must not be possible to close
the air supply opening.
– Minimum free area for the air supply
opening at low level is 4cm2 per 1kW boiler
input.
– Minimum free area for the air supply
opening at high level is 2cm2 per 1kW boiler
input.
Chimney/ue gas system
Flue gas system
– Flue systems must comply with current
British Standards and legislation.
– The flue must be pressure tight, able to with-
stand slight positive over pressure.
– Flue system must be able to cope with flue
gas temperatures up to 190°C.
– The flue should be able to withstand the
mildly acidic nature of any condensate that
might form. Any condensate should not be
allowed to collect in the flue and should be
drained via a suitable trapped drain – not
back via the boiler.
– A flue gas sampling point with an internal di-
ameter 10-21mm should be included adja-
cent to the flue spigot, extending through
any thermal insulation.
– The pressure condition at the boiler spigot
ideally should be balanced – It can be slightly negative (up to -50Pa) or slightly positive
depending on the matched burner. Check
with Hoval Technical.
– A draught stabiliser may be required if the
draught exceeds the figure indicated.
Burner mounting
– When mounting the burner an adapter
flange may be required depending on the
burner being used. If this is required this will
be fitted to the boiler door and supplied with
all additional fixings before it is dispatched
from Hoval.
– The flexible oil pipes or gas pipework should
be installed in such a manner that the door
can be opened 90° with the burner still
attached.
– All services must be fitted in such a manner
that the boiler door can be opened fully.
Electrical connection
– A single phase 230V supply is required for
the control panel operation. Single phase
burners are electrically supplied via the control panel. Three phase burners require a
separate three phase isolated supply (by
the installer) direct to the burner. In this case
control cables tted with wieland plug/sockets will still run between the control panel and the burner. All power supplies to the
burner/boiler/other associated equipment
(ie.: gas booster, separate oil pump, etc.)
–
Noise attenuation
The following steps can be taken to reduce
noise:
– Make the walls, ceiling and floor of the boiler
plant room as solid as possible, fit sound
absorbers in the air supply ducting, provide
conduit supports and brackets with sound
dampening fittings.
– If there are living quarters either above
or below the boiler plant room, fit rubber
vibration strips underneath the base
channels of the boiler and connect conduits
flexibly with flexible connections.
– Connect circulating pumps to the network
with flexible connections. In order to dampen
flame noise in the flue, sound absorbers can
be fitted in the flue system (consider leaving
space for subsequent installation).
