1.2 PACKAGING CONTENT
The appliance is delivered packaged in a wooden crate with appropriate protections. The draught diverter is delivered in a separate cardboard box, not assembled. An envelope contains this booklet, the warranty paper and screws to fix the draught diverter.
1.3 CONSTRUCTIONAL AND OPERA­TIONAL DESCRIPTION
The appliance is manufactured according to the EC regulation 90/396(CEE for gas appliances, and has therefore, the CE agreement. In particular the manufac­turing process and the components satisfy the technical European regulation EN 89. The purpose of this appliance is to allow the heat ex­change between the gas combustion products, burned in the combustion chamber and the water inside the tank. The combustion chamber is placed in the lower part of the appliance, under the water tank. On the top is the draught diverter. Flue pipes, which go through the water tank, allow the exhausting of the gas of the combustion chamber into the chimney flue and for the thermal exchange. Turbula­tors have been installed inside the flue exhaust pipes in order to improve the thermal exchange.
DRAUGHT DIVERTER
It is placed on the combustion products circuit and its
purpose is to keep into pre-set limits the combustion quality and the combustion stability within min. and max. conditions.
ATMOSPHERIC BURNER
It is composed of two parts: a principal burner, which ensures the thermal function of the appliance, and a pilot burner needed to light the principal burner.

C control panel D tank E combustion chamber
CONTROL PANEL
On the instrument control panel there is all required to control and adjust the normal operation of the appliance: On/Off switch, water temperature thermostat, water temperature ther­mometer. There is also the security flue gas spillage thermostat in case of improper combustion (manual reset) and a red light which lights up when this thermostat has operated.
TANK
It is made of thick sheet steel and assures great resistance to pressure. The inside is coated with opal glass (a vitreous coat­ing baked at over 850°). This allows a high chemical resistance to organic solvents and many other chemical substances, excellent abrasion resistance (low friction) and very good thermal stability. This allows long-life and a higher quality water. Inspection and cleaning of the tank are allowed by an appropriate clean out and inspection door.

2.7 GAS SUPPLY CONVERSION
To convert to LPG gas it is necessary to use the proper conversion kit supplied by the manufacturer. Conversion has to be done only by qualified personnel.
For the gas supply conversion, proceed as follows:
1. Obtain the relevant conversion kit (injectors, dia­phragm...).
2. Close the gas isolating cock and isolate the electrical supply.
3. Extract the burner from its housing by unscrewing the two securing nuts A, after separating the gas supply pipe.
4. Unscrew the four injectors B and replace them with the ones in the conversion kit. Fully tighten in order to en­sure gas soundness.
5. Work on the gas valve pressure control: if change from G20 (natural gas) to the LPG the pressure control has to be adjusted by tightening screwing the regulation screw B (pict 2.6/2) and replacing the plug A with the special plug without vest C held in the kit.
6. Adjust the gas supply to the pilot burner to let the flame of the pilot burner be well in contact with the thermocou­ple; work on screw C picture 2.6/1: clockwise to de­crease, anti-clockwise to increase.
7. Affix the label in the kit on the valve to indicate that the appliance has been set for the new gas type.
WARNING: LPG gas operation, a “first stage” pressure re­ducer is needed close to the tank in order to reduce the pres­sure to 1,5 bar. We also recommend to install a “second stage“ pressure reducer close to the appliance, in order to re­duce the supply pressure to 29 mbar.
IMPORTANT: at the end of setting and regulation opera­tions, check:
1. the electrical isolation of the gas valve connectors
2. the gas soundness
3. the locking of the plug of the pressure test points
4. the proper operating of the appliance
Fig 2.7 /1
Page 14 11/07/00
Page 15
2.8 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The appliance has to be connected to a 220/240 Volt sin­gle-phase supply mains with an efficient earth.
THE MANUFACTURER CAN NOT BE CONSID­ERED RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR IN­JURY CAUSED BY FAILURE TO EARTH THE IN­STALLATION TO THE REQUIRED STANDARD.
A double pole switch should be fitted close to the appli­ance to allow the isolation of mains supply. Connect the equipment supply cable, taking care to com­ply with the electrical standards.
2.9 STARTING THE WATER-HEATER
Before starting the water-heater ensure that:
• The appliance is set to function with the correct gas
type.
• The regulations about the installation of these appli-
ances are complied with, especially about the proper connection of the flue and the gas supply piping.
• The electrical supply is on and earthing has been car-
ried out in accordance with current regulations.
• The gas isolating cocks at the meter and in the vicinity
of the heater are open.
• The water heater is full of water.
2.10 CONNECTION OF SEVERAL WA­TER-HEATERS
When several water-heaters have to be connected to­gether it is important to connect them in such a way that they can operate individually or together. This is possible by using valves in the circuit, whose opening and closure allow to decide how many appli­ances to use according to needs (i.e. low and high sea­sons, peak periods, repair of equipment, etc).
For example we suggest the following types of layouts:
Fig 2.9 / 1
Two appliances connected in parrallel
Fig 2.9 / 2
Water heater with storage cylinder connected in series
2.11 FAULT FINDING

• The pilot burner injector is blocked
• The ignition cable is broken or not well connected to the
ignition electrode
• The high limit thermostat is working (water max. tem-
perature) on the thermocouple circuit.
The flame of the pilot burner does not keep burning:
• Set the pilot burner gas rate with the adjustment screw
• Thermocouple is damaged or not in the flame
• Gas valve is faulty (to be replaced)
The principal burner switches on with a noisily:
• The pilot burner is dirty
• The pilot burner has not been set properly (set flow - par.

From this moment on the water heating phase begins: the burner will operate until the water temperature reaches the temperature set at point 2: at this moment the principal burner switches off (the pilot burner remains alight); the burner will operate again if the temperature goes below the pre-set value (i.e. a lot of hot water is used).
FLUE GAS SAFETY OPERATING: the appliance has a flue gas spillage thermostat which operates in case of im­proper exhausting of the combustion gases (i.e. if the chim­ney is blocked). If this happens, the red light (4) will be illu­minated and the gas supply to the principal burner is stopped. To reset push the button under the cover cap plug (3) in order to restart again the appliance.
