1.6 BOILER OPERATION
The boiler operating mode is controlled by the selector switch on the control panel. When set to winter ( ) it will operate in the Domestic Hot Water and Central Heating modes. For Domestic Hot Water only the selector switch should be set to summer ( ). Domestic hot water supply always takes priority over central heating. If a demand for hot water is required during a central heating period, the boiler will automatically switch to hot water mode until the demand is satisfied.
1.6.1 Central Heating mode
If there is a call for central heating the pump will start to circulate the primary heating water and the fan will run at full speed; once the air pressure switch has been proved the burner will light. The burner output then automatically adjusts to suit the system demand; as the temperature of the heating
water in the boiler approaches that set by the adjustable central heating control knob the burner output is reduced. When this set temperature is reached, the burner extinguishes and the fan stops. The pump continues to run for 30 seconds to prevent residual heat build up in the boiler. The burner will not relight for 3 minutes unless there is a demand for domestic hot water during this period.
1.6.2 Domestic Hot Water mode
The pump does not operate on a DHW demand, the fan runs and once the air pressure switch has proved the boiler will light. The burner output then automatically adjusts to suit the demand required to raise the temperature set by the adjustable domestic hot water control knob. When the hot water demand has been satisfied, it passes to the operation in C.H., if the selector is set to winter ( ) and there is a C.H. demand, otherwise the burner will extinguish.

2.1 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS
GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS (as amended). It is the law that all gas appliances are installed by a registered person, in accordance with the above regulations. Failure to install appliances correctly could lead to prosecution. It is in your own interest, and that of safety, to ensure that the law is complied with. In addition to the above regulations, this appliance must be installed in accordance with the current IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), Local Building Regulations, the Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations, Byelaws of the local water undertaking, and Health and Safety Document No 635 “The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989”. It should also be in accordance with the relevant recommendations in the current editions of the following British Standards and Codes of Practice: BS5449, BS5546, BS5440:1, BS5440:2, BS6798, BS6891, and BG.DM2, BS7074, and BS5482 for propane installations.
Manufacturer’s instructions must NOT be taken in any way as over-riding statutory obligations.
2.2 BOILER POSITION
In siting the combination boiler, the following limitations MUST be observed: – The boiler is not suitable for external installation. The
position selected for installation should be within the building, unless otherwise protected by a suitable enclosure, and MUST allow adequate space for installation, servicing, and operation of the appliance, and for air circulation around it (section 2.4).
– This position MUST allow for a suitable flue termination to
be made. The combination boiler must be installed on a flat vertical wall which is capable of supporting the weight of the appliance, and any ancillary equipment.
– If the combination boiler is to be fitted in a timber framed
building it should be fitted in accordance with the Institute of Gas Engineers document for Gas Installations In Timber Frame Housing, Reference 16E/UP/7: 1998. If in doubt, advice must be sought from the gas supplier.
– If the appliance is installed in a room containing a bath or
shower, any electrical switch or control utilising mains electricity must be so situated that it cannot be touched by a person using the bath or shower. Attention is drawn to the requirements of the current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), and in Scotland the electrical provisions of the Building Regulations applicable in Scotland.
– A compartment used to enclose the appliance MUST be
designed and constructed specifically for this purpose. An existing cupboard, or compartment, may be used provided it is modified accordingly.
– Where installation will be in an unusual location, special
procedures may be necessary. BS6798 gives detailed guidance on this aspect.
2.3 FLUE TERMINAL POSITION
Detailed recommendations for flue installation are given in BS5440:1. The following notes are for general guidance: – The boiler MUST be installed so that the terminal is
exposed to the external air.
– It is important that the position of the terminal allows free
passage of air across it at all times.
– It is ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE, in practice that products of
combustion discharging from the terminal cannot re­enter the building, or any other adjacent building, through ventilators, windows, doors, other sources of natural air infiltration, or forced ventilation/air conditioning. If this does occur, the appliance MUST be turned OFF IMMEDIATELY and the gas supplier consulted.
The minimum acceptable dimensions from the terminal
to obstructions and ventilation openings are specified in fig. 4.
– If the terminal discharges into a pathway or passageway
check that combustion products will not cause nuisance and that the terminal will not obstruct the passageway.
– Where the lowest part of the terminal is fitted less than 2
m (78 in) above ground, above a balcony or above a flat roof to which people have access, the terminal MUST be protected by a purpose designed guard.
– Where the terminal is fitted within 850 mm (34 in) of a
plastic or painted gutter, or 450 mm (18 in) of painted eaves, an aluminium shield at least 1,500 mm (59 in) long must be fitted to the underside of the painted surface.
– The air inlet/outlet flue duct MUST NOT be closer than 25
mm (1 in) to combustible material.
– In certain weather conditions the terminal may emit a
plume of steam. This is normal but positions where this would cause a nuisance should be avoided.

2.4 VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Detailled recommendations for air supply are given in BS5440:2. The following notes are for general guidance: –
It is not necessary to have a purpose provided air vent in the room or compartment in which the appliance is installed.
2.5 GAS SUPPLY
– The gas installation should be in accordance with BS6891.
The gas required for the boiler is specified in section 1.3.
– Ensure that the pipework from the meter to the appliance
is of adequate size.
– The governor at the meter must give a constant outlet
pressure of 20 mbar (8 inwg) for natural gas and 30 - 37 mbar (12 - 15 inwg) for LPG, when the appliance is running.
– The gas supply line should be purged.
NOTE: Before purging open all doors and windows, also extinguish any cigarettes, pipes, and any other naked flames.
– The complete installation must be tested for gas
soundness.
2.6 ELECTRICITY SUPPLY
The appliance MUST be earthed. A mains supply of 230 V ­50 Hz single phase is required. All external controls and wiring MUST be suitable for mains voltage.
Wiring should be in 3 core PVC insulated cable NOT LESS than 0.75 mm
2
(24 x 0.2 mm) to BS6500, Table 16. Wiring external to the boiler MUST be in accordance with current l.E.E. Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) and local regulations. The supply connection to the flying lead provided MUST be made to a fused double pole switch, having a 3 mm (1/8 in) contact separation in both poles, serving only the boiler and system controls; the fuse rating should be 3 amp. This connection should be readily accessible and be made adjacent to the boiler (except in the case of bathroom installations for domestic boilers where the point of connection to the mains MUST be outside of the bathroom).
2.7 EXTERNAL CONTROLS (Refer to section 3.9)
The boiler is intended for use with a 24 V room thermostat. The connection is made inside the control box as described in section 3.9.
2.8 WATER SYSTEMS - GENERAL
– This appliance is designed for connection to sealed central
heating water systems.
– Check that the mains water pressure is sufficient to
produce the required D.H.W. flow rate, but does not exceed the maximum D.H.W. pressure (1.3 point).
Where mains pressure exceed 6 bar a pressure reducing valve must be fitted in the D.H.W. inlet.
2.8.1 Treatment of water circulating systems
All recirculatory systems will be subject to corrosion unless
an appropriate water treatment is applied. This means that the efficiency of the system will deteriorate as corrosion sludge accumulates within the system, risking damage to pump and valves, boiler noise and circulation problems.
For optimum performance af ter installation this boiler and its associated central heating system must be flushed in accordance with the guidelines given in BS 7593 “Treatment of water in domestic hot water central heating systems”.
This must involve the use of a proprietary cleanser, such as Sentinel X300 or X400, or Fernox Superfloc. Full instructions are supplied with the products, but for immediate information please contact GE Betz (0151 420 9563) or Fernox (01799 550 811) directly.
– For long term protection against corrosion and scale,
after flushing it is recommended that an inhibitor such as Sentinel X100, or Fernox MB-1 or Copal is dosed in accordance with the guidelines given in BS 7593.
Failure to flush and add inhibitor to the system may invalidate the appliance warranty.
– It is important to check the inhibitor concentration after
installation, system modification and at every service in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. (Test kits are available from inhibitor stockists).
2.9 REQUIREMENTS FOR SEALED WATER SYSTEMS
The heating system design should be based on the following information: a) The available pump head is given in fig. 5. b) The burner starts when the C.H. flow reaches 400÷450
l/h. This safety condition is ensured by the flow switch.
c) The appliance is equipped with an internal by-pass that
operates with system heads (H) greater than 3 m. The maximum flow through the by-pass is about 300 l/h. If thermostatic radiator valves are to be installed, at least one radiator should be without a thermostatic valve (usually the bathroom radiator).
d) A sealed system must only be filled by a competent person
using one of the approved methods shown in fig. 7. The system design should incorporate the connections appropriate to one of these methods.
e) The following paragraphs outline the specifications of the
items fitted to the boiler.

2.9.1 Pump
The available head shown in fig. 5 is that in excess of the appliance hydraulic resistance, i.e. that available for the system at any given heating load up to the maximum output in C.H. mode. Never reduce the pump speed below maximum as this will reduce D.H.W. output. The pump speed is indicated on the side of the pump speed selector switch (if fitted).
2.9.2 System volume (total water content)
The following Table gives the maximum system volume that the integral expansion vessel can sustain under different charge pressure conditions. If the system volume exceeds that shown, an additional expansion vessel must be fitted and connected to the heating system primary return pipe as close as possible to the appliance. If an extra vessel is required, ensure that the total capacity of both vessels is adequate. Further details are available in the current issues of BS5449 and BS6798.
NOTE: If the pressure gauge indicates 2.65 bar or greater when the appliance is at maximum temperature with all radiators in circulation an extra expansion vessel is required.
2.9.3 Pressure gauge
A pressure gauge is mounted on the appliance facia panel.
2.9.4 Safety valve
A safety valve set at 3 bar (43.5 psi) is fitted to the appliance and a discharge pipe is routed to outside of the appliance. This discharge pipe should be extended to terminate safely away from the appliance and where a discharge would not
cause damage to persons or property but would be detected. The pipe should be able to withstand boiling water, be a minimum of 15 mm in diameter, and installed with a continuous fall.
2.10 D.H.W. SYSTEMS
– Check that the mains supply pressure is within the
prescribed limits (1.3 point). If necessary, a pressure reducing valve should be fitted to the mains supply before the D.H.W. inlet connection.
– A maximum D.H.W. flow rate of:
11.4 l/m (3.0 gpm) for “FORMAT 80 B” and 14.7 l/m (3.9 gpm) for “FORMAT 100 B” is recommended. Higher flow rates will not damage the appliance but may lower the water temperature below an acceptable level.
– If the appliance is installed in an area where the temporary
hardness of the water supply is high, say over 150 ppm, the fitting of an in line scale inhibitor may be an advantage. Consult the Local Water Undertaking if in doubt.
– Devices capable of preventing the flow of expansion water:
e.g. non return valves and/or loose-jumpered stop cocks should not be fitted unless separate arrangements are made for expansion water.
– For specific information relating to fittings (eg. Showers,
washing machines etc.) suitable for connection in the D.H.W. circuit, consult the Local Water Undertaking, however the following information is given for guidance.
2.10.1 Domestic hot/cold water supply taps and mixing taps
All equipment designed for use at mains water pressure is suitable.
2.10.2 Showers
Any WRAS approved shower suitable for the mains water pressure available may be used. A loose or flexible shower head type may require the fitting of an anti-syphon device to comply wth water by-laws.
2.10.3 Bidets
Providing that the appliance is of the over-rim flushing type, the outlets are shrouded and it is impossible to attach a temporary hand held spray, no anti syphonage device is necessary.

3.5 SEPARATE DUCTS (Optional alternative twin pipe system)
When installing the separate ducts, comply with the requirements of the current standards, as well as the following practical pointers: – With direct intake from outside, when the pipe is longer
than 1 m, you are recommended to insulate the piping so as to prevent the formation of condensation on the outside of the piping during particularly cold periods of the year.
– With the outlet pipe outside the building or in cold indoor
environments, insulation is necessary to prevent burner ignition failure. In such cases, provide for condensate
drainage.
– If a segment of the flue passes through a flammable wall,
this segment must be insulated with a glass wool pipe insulator 30 mm thick, with a density of 50 kg/m
3
.
The maximum overall length of the intake and exhaust ducts depends on the head losses of the single fittings installed and can reach approximately the following horizontal measures: – 15 m for “Format 80 B” model, – 21 m for “Format 100 B” model.
For head losses in the fittings, refer to

SIME SUPPORT THE BENCHMARK INITIATIVE
All relevant sections of the logbook must be filled in at the time of installation and thereaf ter service information on the back page of the logbook. Commissioning of the boiler is not complete until the logbook is filled in. Before commissioning the appliance, the whole gas installation including the meter MUST be purged and tested for gas soundness in accordance with BS6891.
IMPORTANT: open all doors and windows, extinguish naked lights, and DO NOT SMOKE whilst purging the gas line. Before commencing the commissioning procedure, ensure that the gas service cock is turned on, the electricity supply is isolated, and that the D.H.W. and C.H. isolation valves are in the closed position.
4.1 FILLING THE WATER SYSTEM
– Open the C.H. flow and C.H. return valves (20 - 19 fig. 2). – Loosen the automatic air vent cap (11 fig. 2). – Open all radiator valves and system air vents. Fill the
system with water using one of the approved methods described in section 2.9 to about 0.5 bar greater than the system design pressure. Close all air vents. Do not close
the A.A.V. the one near the pump! – Check the system for water soundness. – Completely drain the appliance and heating system,
thoroughly flush the system, and refill the system design
pressure to BS 7593. – Open the D.H.W. inlet valve, open any hot tap, clear of air
bubbles. Close hot tap.
4.2 COMMISSIONING THE BOILER
– Loosen the screw and connect a pressure gauge to the
burner pressure test point on the gas valve (fig. 21).
– Ensure that the rotary switch on the facia panel is set to
the summer position “ ” (D.H.W. Only), turn the D.H.W. thermostat to maximum (fully clockwise), and turn on the electrical supply. Fully open any D.H.W. tap and the burner will light.
– Allow the boiler to run for at least 5 minutes and check
that the burner pressure is as stated in section 1.3. The D.H.W. burner pressure is factory set and should not require adjusting. If the burner pressure is low, check that the appliance has not begun to modulate (this will occur if the D.H.W. flow rate is low. If modulation is suspected, open all D.H.W. taps to maximise flow and recheck burner pressure). Check also the inlet pressure with the burner alight; this should be 20 mbar +/– 1.0 mbar standing pressure & the working inlet pressure limited to a loss no greater than 1.0 mbar for natural gas. If it is necessary to adjust the D.H.W. burner pressure the method is described in section 8.6.
– Reduce the D.H.W. draw off rate to the minimum
necessary to maintain the burner alight by carefully adjusting the D.H.W. inlet valve and check that the burner pressure decreases in response to D.H.W. temperature rise. Fully open the inlet valve.
– Close the D.H.W. tap and ensure that the burner is
extinguished and the pump stops.

To ensure continued efficient operation of the appliance, it is recommended that it is checked and serviced as necessary at regular intervals. The frequency of servicing will depend upon the particular installation conditions and usage but in general once a year should be adequate. It is the law that any service work must be carried out by registered personnel (C.O.R.G.I.). Before commencing any service operation, ISOLATE the mains electrical supply, and TURN OFF the gas supply at the main service cock. Service the appliance by following the full procedure detailed below.
5.1 MAIN BURNER ASSEMBLY
– Remove the casing as showed in fig. 23. – Remove the 8 fixing screws securing the sealed chamber
front panel then remove the panel. – Unscrew the 7 screws securing the combustion chamber
front panel and remove the panel, taking care not to
damage the insulation. – Remove the electrode by unscrewing it from the burner
manifold. – Unscrew the burner manifold union and locking nut. Lift
the front of the burner to disengage manifold thread and
then lift the burner clear. – Remove the burner manifold by disconnecting the four
screws. – Inspect and if necessary, clean the injectors, electrodes,
and the main burner bars.
5.2 FAN ASSEMBLY
– Disconnect the electrical connections to the fan. Note the
position of the earth conductor. – Remove the three screws securing the fan.
– Tilt the fan forwards and remove in a downwards direction. – Inspect the fan assembly and clean if necessary.
5.3 BITHERMAL EXCHANGER
– Inspect the bithermal exchanger, and clean if necessary.
5.5 CHIMNEY SWEEP FUNCTION (combustion analysis)
To carry out the verification of combustion in the boiler turn the selector and stop on the position ( ) until the green/orange led starts to flash intermittently. From that moment the boiler will start functioning in heating mode at the maximum power, with switching off at 80°C and restarting at 70°C.
Before activating the chimney sweep function make sure that the radiator valves or eventual zone valves are open.
The test may be carried out also during D.H.W. mode. To do so it is enough, after having activated the chimney sweep function, to take some hot water from one or more outlets. Even in this condition the boiler functions at the maximum temperature always with the primary controlled between 80°C and 70°C. During the entire duration of the testing the hot water taps must remain open. After verifying the combustion the boiler should be switched off by placing the selector on the OFF position; then return the selector to the desired function.

ATTENTION: After about 15 minutes, or once the hot water request has been fulfilled, the chimney sweep function automatically deactivates.
5.6 RE-ASSEMBLY
– Re-assemble all the components in reverse order and
replace all the gaskets fitted in the gas line. Ensure that all seals are correctly fitted and that the pressure sensing line is correctly fitted. Check that the fan earth connection is correctly re-fitted. Note that the fan polarity (Line and Neutral) is immaterial.
– Check for gas soundness before fitting the casing.
5.7 RE-COMMISSIONING
– Turn on the gas supply, and check for gas soundness whilst
the appliance is running.
– Check the operation of the appliance in both C.H. and
D.H.W. mode and ensure in both cases that the burner pressure after at least 5 minutes running is as stated on the data plate or in
Table 3
.
Adjust if necessary as described in section 8.
When any service or replacement of electrical components which has required the breaking and re-making of electrical connections has taken place, the following tests must be repeated: – earth continuity; – short circuit; – polarity; – resistance to earth.
27
6.1 EARTH CONTINUITY CHECK
Appliances must be electrically disconnected, meter set on
(ohm) x 1 scale and adjust zero if necessary. Tests leads from any appliance earth point (e.g. inside control box) see wiring diagrams (section 7) to earth pin on plug. Resistance should
be less than 1Ω (ohm). If the resistance is greater than 1Ω
(ohm) check all earth wires for continuity and all contacts are clean and tight. If the resistance to earth is still greater than
1(ohm) then this should be investigated futher.
6.2 SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK
Switches turned FULL ON - meter set on (ohms) x 1 scale.
Test leads from L to N on appliance terminal block, if meter reads 0 then there is a short circuit.
Meter set on Ω (ohm) x 100 scale. Repeat it with leads from L to E. If meter reads less than infinity () there is a fault.
NOTE: Should it be found that the fuse has failed but no fault is indicated, a detailed continuity check (i.e. by disconnecting and checking each component) is required to trace the faulty component. It is possible that a fault could occur as a result of local burning/arcing but no fault could be found under test. However, a detailed visual inspection should reveal evidence of burning around the fault.
6.3 POLARITY CHECK
Appliance reconnected to mains supply and meter set on 300 V ac scale. Test at appliance terminal block. – Test leads from L to N meter reads approx.: 240 V ac. – Test leads from L to E “ ” meter reads approx. 240 V ac. – Test leads from N to E “ ” meter reads from 0 to 15 V ac.
6.4 RESISTANCE TO EARTH CHECK
Appliance must be disconnected from main supply and meter
on (ohm) x 100 scale.
All switches including thermostat on test leads from L to E - if
meter reads other than infinity () there is a fault which
should be isolated. A detailed continuity check is required to trace the faulty component.
IMPORTANT: These series of checks are the first electrical checks to be carried out during a fault finding procedure. On completion of the service/fault finding task which has required the breaking and remaking of electrical connections then the checks 6.1 Earth continuity, 6.3 Polarity and 6.4 Resistance to earth must be repeated.
6.5 FAULT FINDING LEDS
The indicator leds signalling irregular and/or incorrect operation of the equipment are indicated in fig. 26. Before commencing any service operation, ISOLATE the mains electrical supply, and TURN OFF the gas supply at the main service cock. It is the law that any service work must be carried out by registered personnel (Gas Safe Register).
