4. INSTALLATION

4.1 Mix Boiler Installation Electrical Installation:

 Electrical specification: 2.8kW-230VAC-50/60Hz  A moulded 13A IEC power cord is provided. This should be plugged into the IEC connection on the

rear of the boiler and plugged into a suitable 13A power outlet.

 When installing the machine, always observe the local regulations and standards.

Plumbing Installation:

 Mains water pressure required (limits): 5-50psi (35-345kPa) 0.5 – 5.0 bar  Fit a stop Valve on a cold water line and attach a 3/4" BSP male fitting, (e.g. 3/4" x 1/2" 311 or

washing machine type stop valve).

 For US versions use 3/8” NPT male fitting.  Connect straight tailpiece of the hose to the stop valve fitting. Make sure that the pre-attached

sealing washer is fitted.

 Turn on the water to flush any impurities, dust etc. from the inlet hose and water pipe. Allow

several litres through.

 Connect right-angled tailpiece of the hose to the inlet valve of the boiler (3/4" BSP). Make sure the

sealing washer is fitted here also.

 Turn on water and check for leaks.
