Terminology used in this manual
The central heating boiler water circuit is called primary
The domestic hot water is called secondary (dhw)
1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Oso Termo E electric central heating boiler.
To ensure a correct and safe installation and economical use, please read these instructions thoroughly before
installation.
1.1. Applicable documents
The following additional documents are provided with the appliance:
For the owner of the system:
Instructions for use
Warranty card
1.2. Retention of documents
Please pass on this installation manual to the owner of the system. The owner should retain the manuals so that
they are available when required.
1.3. Features and benefits
The boiler provides wet system central heating by passing the primary water over the immersion heaters. The
immersion heaters are located on the under-side of boiler ensuring the elements are constantly immersed in the
heating medium (water with appropriate inhibitor). The primary temperature in the heating circuit is determined by
the outside temperature sensor and the heating curve selected in the boiler, (see sections 1.2, 1.3 and 3.5.3) The
boiler temperature probe will activate and modulate 1, 2 or 3 elements in the boiler to achieve the desired primary
temperature. The boiler has an automatic pump overrun for both central and water heating that prevents a build
up of heat in the boiler. The boiler reservoir is insulated with 19 mm self-extinguishing Armaflex insulating
material, which is sufficient to direct the whole heat only to the heating system.
The boiler operates by rapidly heating a small water quantity. Energy use is maintained at 100% efficiency.
No flue or fan required - Almost silent in operation - No bulk oil storage tanks required
No annual safety check required

1.4. Termo concept.
The OSO Termo E range of boilers uses technology widely used in Europe but relatively new in the UK, that
modulates the boiler to reduce power consumption.
1.5. Outside temperature sensor
An outside temperature sensor is supplied with the boiler to be fitted to an outside shaded wall. This sensor
informs the boiler of the outside temperature.
1.6. Heating curves
The boiler is pre-programmed with a number of heating curves to select from.
The boiler calculates the heat required in the property based on the outside temperature and the set heating
curve – the colder it is outside, the higher the primary temperature needed in the heating system.
Heating curves are set for a particular property and selection is dependent on the insulation levels of the property.
Modern, well insulated buildings have a different heating curve to a less well insulated building. A poorly insulated
house will require a higher primary heating temperature.
Heating curves also vary according to radiator or under-floor heating. The factory set heating curve is for a
building constructed to 2000 building regulations with radiator heating. Many boilers therefore will not require
adjustment of heating curve.
Changing the heating curves at the time of installation is a simple process for the installer. A table is shown on
page 20 indicating which heating curve is required for the building type. Once the heating curve is correctly set, it
should never require changing.
The heating curve will aim for the property to be heated to 22°C. Not all households wish for the same internal
temperature, if the residents of the property require a higher or lower temperature, the selected curve should be
offset up or down by the appropriate number of degrees. Full instructions are given on page 19.
A room thermostat (not supplied) must be installed to finely regulate internal temperatures.

1.7. Termo E Range
TERMO RS E is a boiler and software package only. Expansion vessel, pump and motorized valves are not
supplied
TERMO Plus E is a system boiler for central heating only. Expansion vessel & pump is supplied in the boiler.
TERMO PTV E is a system boiler for central heating and will provide heat for a domestic hot water cylinder. For
ease of reference the boilers will be referred to in this installation manual as RS E, Plus E and PTV E.
TERMO boilers are available in (240V single phase): 4.8, 6, 7.2, 10.8, and 14.4 kW. OSO Termo boilers can be
connected together to provide more power, the boilers can also be supplied for use on three phase supplies.
Please contact Oso for details.
1.8. Water heater temperature sensor
The Termo PTV E boiler is supplied with a temperature probe that is inserted between the cylinder wall and
insulation or in a dry pocket. This probe then relays cylinder temperature information back to the boiler. The boiler
will then produce sufficient heat to raise the temperature of the domestic water to the desired level.
