FIG. 4

The appliance must only be installed on sealed heating systems.

Do not use galvanised radiators or pipework, as this will lead to the formation of gas in the system.

A suitable antifreeze fluid should be added to the water in the central heating system.

Do not use add sealing agents to the water in the central heating system, as deposits may remain in the boiler heat exchanger.

Regard should be given to the siting of the flue terminal, so as not to cause a nuisance. Further guidance is given in section 6, on page 21.

Clearances

The boiler must be installed in an accessible position, with attention given to the need for future servicing and maintenance.

While the side panels will not require removal during most service operations, it is recommended that a clearance of 35mm is provided on either side of the boiler for convenience.

As the casing and flue temperature will not exceed 85°C, no special provisions are required to protect flammable building components and nearby furniture, though all specified clearances must be observed.

Due to low thermal losses from the casings, the appliance is eminently suitable for installation in a cupboard or compartment, provided all specified clearances are observed and the requirements of BS 6798 and BS 5440 Part 2 are observed.

Combustion Air

The combustion air to the appliance must not contain any corrosive substances. Substances which are classed as corrosive include chlorine and fluorinebased products, solvents, paints adhesives, some aerosols and household cleaners.

The boiler must be installed in a position complying with the dimensions set out in section 3.1.

Using the wall template (section 2.2, page 9) provided, and making sure that the template is level, mark and drill the holes required for mounting the wall plate, pipework, manifold connections and flue. Mark and drill the holes required for the boiler mounting plate and insert appropriate plugs for the type of wall.

Fix the boiler mounting plate and manifold in position on the wall. In this way the water connections can be pre-piped before the boiler is mounted. Lift the boiler onto the mounting plate and make good all appropriate connections.

For optimum performance after installation, the boiler and associated central heating system must be flushed in accordance with BS 7593 (Treatment of Water in DHW Central Heating Systems).

Observe all regulations in force, specified by the Local Water Authority.

The pressure relief valve (item 13, page 10 & item 11, page 11) is set at 3 bar. All pipework, fitting, etc. used on the system should be suitable for pressures in excess of this. The pressure relief discharge pipe should not be less than 15mm in diameter and should run continuously downward. The termination point should be bent facing downwards and towards the wall and not discharge over windows, entrances, walkways and any other place likely to cause nuisance to persons and electrical components. Consideration should be given to the fact that boiling water and steam will discharge from the pipe upon activation of the pressure relief valve.

A _” male pipe connection will be required to connect to the pressure relief valve.

The 10 litre expansion vessel provided with the boiler is suitable for system volumes of up to 140 litres. An additional vessel will be required for system volumes in excess of this. The following formula can be used to calculate the required expansion vessel size:

V = 0.07 x C

V = Expansion vessel volume (litres)

C = Water system volume (litres)

3 INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY

3.1 SITING AND ACCESS

3.2 UNIT ASSEMBLY

3.3 HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS

FIG. 5

To fill the system once the pipework has been connected, first gain access to the inside of the boiler (see section 4, page 16) and open the cap on the automatic air valve (item 23, page 10). Gradually open the filling loop valves located on the underside of the boiler. Once at desired pressure, close the filling loop and open the manual air valve (item 2, page 10) to vent the system when full. When complete, close the manual air valve (fig 7).

All system filling must be done in accordance with recommended WRAS guidelines.

Automatic Air Valve

Manual Air Valve

The boiler operates between working pressures of 1-1.5 bar. This can be checked on the pressure gauge located on the front control panel. Once all the air has been vented from the system, close the manual and automatic air valves. Once the desired pressure has been reached, close the filling valves.

Before initial firing of the boiler, ensure that the pump has not become blocked by carrying out the following operation:

1) Remove screw ‘A’ (fig 8).

2) Turn the rotator knob, taking care not to apply excessive force.

3) Replace screw ‘A’.

Check that the circulator is operating correctly, and if necessary, bleed of air by turning screw ‘A’ anticlockwise. Tighten once complete.

Important: Before proceeding, always ensure that

the water within the pump is not boiling. Also take care not to damage any other components with water which may escape during this process.

The pump is factory-set at setting III. In most circumstances this is the best setting to achieve optimum boiler performance and will not require adjustment. We recommend that this is not altered unless strictly necessary.

To change the pump speed, rotate knob ‘S’ (see below) into the required position (I, II, III).

The householder should be informed that the system pressure should be checked periodically via the gauge on the front face of the control panel.

To recalibrate the system pressure, slowly open the filling valves on the underside of the appliance. When the desired pressure has been reached, close the valve.

FIG. 7

Circa

1/2 H

When the system pressure drops below the minimum values, the digital readout on the control panel will display the fault codes ‘E 02’. Once the pressure has been reset, the boiler should be switched off, then on, via the ON/OFF button on the control panel.

If during normal operation the pressure drops repeatedly, this indicates a loss of pressure in the system beyond expected levels and all valves, pipework, etc. should be checked for leaks.

The appliance has an in-built condensate trap (item 12, page 10) which eliminates the need for any external traps. The flexible drain hose is located behind the pipework on the underside of the boiler. This should be routed through the cutout in the base. Connect to the flexible and extend the pipe run away from the appliance with a continuous fall of 2° (or 20mm in every metre).

Before initial firing of the boiler, the condensate trap must be filled with water to prevent the escape of flue gases. On the underside of the boiler, unscrew the transparent glass of the drain connection, fill the trap to halfway with water, before reassembling.

The condensate pipe may terminate into any four areas:

1) Into an internal waste system, with the end of the pipe into a gully below ground level, but above the water line.

2) Into an external waste system, with the end of the pipe into a gully below ground level, but above the water line.

3) Into an internal soil and vent stack.

4) Into an external purpose-made soakaway.

As external condensate pipe runs may be susceptible to freezing during very cold weather, it is advisable to terminate the pipe into an internal waste system where possible.

If there is no alternative to an external pipe run, the following should be taken into consideration:

1) The pipework should be insulated with weatherproof material to prevent the condensation from freezing.

2) The pipe run should take the shortest practical route.

3) The pipe should terminate as close as is possible to the ground/drain, while still allowing for the safe dispersal of the condensation.

A condensate pump can be fitted where the external ground level is higher than the boiler and there are no internal drains.

The pipework from the condensate trap to the drain is not supplied with the boiler.

If the combi (CB) model is to be installed in a hard water area, a suitable water-treatment device must be fitted in the mains supply to the boiler.

If in doubt, please contact the local water authority.

These notes are for guidance only. In all cases, refer to manufacturer’s instructions and BS EN 1264-4 for best practice when installing underfloor heating systems.

The use of plastic pipes without protection against oxygen ingress can cause corrosion of parts within the system. All pipework must be of a type which incorporates an oxygen-proof barrier in accordance with standards DIN 4726 and DIN 4729.

Trianco is not liable for any damage caused to the appliance, system, or floor areas as a result of noncompliance with manufacturer’s instructions and the standards quoted above.

Always isolate the power supply to the appliance before carrying out any work on the electrical systems and components.

Wiring to the boiler must conform with all requirements of the current issue of the IEE Wiring Regulations for fixed wiring to a stationary appliance, and any local regulations which may apply. Failure to do so may cause a hazard and will invalidate the appliance warranty.

This appliance must be earthed.

Connection to the appliance should be via a fused double-pole isolation switch, with a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles, and serving only the boiler and system controls.

The cables to low power supply peripherals such as remote controls, room thermostats, probes, etc. must be double-isolated or follow a different path from those to the main net.

After installation, or in the event of a fault, the electrical system should be thoroughly checked for fuse failure, short circuits, incorrect polarity, resistance to earth, and earth continuity.

In the event of replacement, use a cable with the same specification as that fitted.

- Supply – 230V, 50Hz, 150 Watts.

- External fuse – 3 amp.

- Water protection IPX4D.

To gain access to the electrical components, remove the two screws from the underside of the control panel (fig 17) and bring forward, pulling from the top. Remove screws (marked ‘A’ on fig 18) from the rear of the control panel and lift the fixed panel as shown on fig 19.

On the System (SB) Model only, this item is supplied separately in a bag within the boiler carton and is used to connect external controllers to the boiler.

The boiler should be connected to a double-channel programmer with volts-free switching to allow the control of the central heating and hot water. A room thermostat should also be fitted.

Alternatively, a digistat can be fitted in place of these, controlling the central heating and leaving the hot water facility on permanently. See fig 21 for digistat wiring.

In both circumstances, it may also be necessary to fit a frost thermostat, should there be a possibility of the water in the pipes freezing.

When using standard controls, the boiler flow temperature can be set using the heating knob on the control panel. The hot water control becomes inactive when the temperature is set via the cylinder thermostat.

System (SB) Model

The boiler should be connected to a double-channel programmer with volts-free switching to give the option of controlling both the central heating and hot water separately. A room thermostat and cylinder thermostat should also be fitted.

It may also be necessary to fit a frost thermostat, should there be a possibility of the water in the pipes freezing.

The System (SB) model can be wired to both Y-plan and S-plan control systems (see figs 22 & 23).

The flue must be installed in accordance with BS 5440 Part 1 and comply with all current Building Regulations.

The Tristar Optima Junior K is a Type C Certified Appliance.

As the appliance is a condensing-type boiler, the exhaust temperature is significantly lower than that of a non-condensing boiler. As such, as part of its normal operation residual water vapour will collect in the flue pipe and from time to time be emitted as a plume of steam. It is therefore strongly recommended to take this into account when deciding the position of the flue terminal.

Only Trianco flues are permitted for use on this appliance. Correct operation of other manufacturers’ flues on the boiler cannot be guaranteed.

Requirements will vary dependent upon the type of kit installed. Guidance is given, but unless otherwise stated, always comply with the recommendations of the relevant codes of practice.

Keep clear of infra-red security light sensors.

If the terminal discharges onto a path or passageway, ensure that combustion products will not cause a nuisance and that the terminal will not cause an obstruction.

If the terminal discharges less than 2 metres from ground level, a suitable terminal guard must be fitted.

Siting the terminal below a carport or balcony is not recommended.

Full clearance requirements for flue terminals are given on the diagram below.

Please refer to the Trianco catalogue for a full list of available flues and configurations.

Any pipe exposed to the elements should be protected with a suitable material and maintained regularly.

To fit the flue pipes together, it is essential to apply a thin bead of lubricant (e.g. washing-up liquid,

vaseline) around all ‘o’-ring seals.

As the flue operates under positive pressure, it is essential to achieve a total seal on all flue joints.

6 FLUE SYSTEM

FIG. 25

1) Having decided the position of the boiler, accurately mark out the position of the terminal and boiler fixing holes using the template provided. Cut a Ø120mm hole through the wall to accept the terminal, and drill 2 x Ø8mm holes to accept the plugs and mounting bolts.

2) Fix boiler to the wall using the mounting bracket.

3) Pass the terminal through the wall, and fit the internal wall seal to the terminal.

4) Fit the Ø60mm (black) seal, clamping to the inner spigot on the boiler flue offtake (see diagram opposite).

5) Fit the Ø100mm and Ø60mm (blue) seal into the 90° concentric bend.

6) Fit the 90° concentric bend into the boiler flue offtake and secure in position with the clamp.

7) Slide the terminal into the 90° bend, ensuring that it is pushed in firmly. Ensure the wall seal is fitted against the wall.

8) Fit external wall seal to the terminal.

9) To extend the terminal length, use the 500mm concentric pipe and cut to the length required, ensuring that the inner section is cut 20mm longer than the outer.

1) Measure vertically the height required (950mm maximum) from the position of the cutout on the provided template to give the correct terminal position.

2) Cut the 1000mm concentric pipe to the required length. Fit the Ø100mm and Ø60mm (blue) seal into the pipe.

3) Fit the Ø60mm (black) seal and pipe adapter to the inner spigot on the boiler flue offtake (see diagram opposite).

4) Fit the concentric pipe into the pipe adapter, securing in position with the clamp.

5) Fit the 90° concentric bend into the pipe and fit the remaining components as above.

IMPORTANT:

When installing the flue system, it is important

that the flue assembly inclines slightly (2°) up

from the boiler to allow any condensation formed

to run back to the appropriate drain.

1) Having decided the position of the boiler, accurately mark out the position of the fixing holes using the template provided. Drill 2 x Ø8mm holes to accept the plugs and mounting bolts

2) Cut a Ø150 hole in the ceiling and roof.

3) Determine the flue length required, ensuring the maximum permissible flue length is not exceeded. If it is necessary to cut one of the pipes to achieve the required length, ensure that the inner pipe is cut 20mm longer than the outer pipe.

4) Fit Ø60mm (black) seal to the inner spigot on the boiler flue offtake.

5) Fit the Ø100mm and Ø60mm (blue) seals into the concentric flue pipes.

6) If possible, pre-assemble the entire flue on a flat surface, ensuring all sections are pushed in firmly. Secure lower section to boiler with the clamp.

7) Fir a roof flashing sleeve (not supplied), and insert the flue terminal through the flashing from the outside.

8) Starting at the appliance end, assemble the extension pipes, ensuring each joint is pushed firmly in position. Ensure that none of the flue joints are situated within the joist space.

9) Fit the ceiling plate centrally around the flue, ensuring that the outer pipe has a minimum clearance of 25mm from any combustible material. Pack space with glass fibre insulation.

10) Fit wall clamp around terminal and secure to roof member, ensuring that the weight of the terminal is carried by the wall clamp and not the roof flashing sleeve.

Note: When fitting the high-level or vertical

balanced flue kits, always ensure that the outer pipe is adequately supported. Extra wall clamping brackets are available from Trianco. Quote part code 510032.

When determining the flue length on non-typical flue courses, it is important to take into consideration that each additional elbow added to the run will dectract from the overall permitted flue length.

A 90° elbow should be classed as reducing the length of the overall run by 1500mm. A 45° elbow should be classed as reducing the length of the overall run by 750mm.

Do not include the first 90° elbow on the boiler when calculating the maximum permitted length on the horizontal flue; this has already been taken into consideration. See figs 40 & 41 for example configurations.

6.17 ALTERNATIVE FLUEING EXAMPLES

Example 1 (horizontal) - Maximum permitted flue length: 4000mm

1 x additional 90° elbow: 1500mm

aximum permitted length of A + B: 4000 minus 1500

= 2500mm

FIG. 40

FIG. 41

Example 2 (vertical) - Maximum permitted flue length: 6000mm

2 x additional 45° elbows: 750mm each (1500mm)

aximum permitted length of D + E: 6000 minus 1500

= 4500mm

A - on/off switch B - central heating temperature control C - DHW temperature control (combi only) D - master RESET button E - MODE button F - programming control (+) G - programming control (-)

To switch the appliance ON, press button ‘A’ on the front control panel. After a few seconds, the boiler will be ready to run.

On the multifunction display (see fig. 42), the first digit will display the current operating mode of the boiler, indicated by the following symbols:

0 - no heating requested C - heating activated d - domestic hot water setting h - boiler deactivated due to overheating F - frost thermostat activated

The two digits on the right of the multifunction display will indicate the boiler flow temperature in °C as standard. When adjusting the temperature controls via knobs ‘B’ & ‘C’, this will indicate the temperature being set, before returning to its default state.

Heating Control Thermostat (B)

This regulates the temperature of the central heating. To increase the temperature, turn the knob clockwise. To decrease, turn the knob anti-clockwise.

H - boiler lock-out LED L - boiler running LED M - ‘comfort’ function running LED P - ‘comfort’ function on/off button R - multifunction display S - pressure gauge

The display (R) will briefly display the temperature being set, before returning to its normal mode of operation displaying the boiler flow temperature.

The thermostat operates in a temperature range between 82°C (high) and 25°C (low).

Turning the thermostat knob fully anti-clockwise will deactivate the central heating.

Domestic Hot Water Thermostat (C)

- Combi (CB) model

This regulates the temperature of the domestic hot water. To increase the temperature, turn the knob clockwise. To decrease, turn the knob anti-clockwise. The display (R) will briefly display the temperature being set, before returning to its normal mode of operation displaying the boiler flow temperature.

Domestic Hot Water Thermostat (C)

- System (SB) model

The system model does not make use of this thermostat setting during normal operation. However, to ensure production of hot water, the knob should always be in the ON position, indicated by the constant illumination of LED ‘M’. To activate, turn the knob fully anti-clockwise, then fully clockwise. To deactivate, repeat these steps.

7 BOILER CONTROLS

7.1 STARTING THE BOILER

FIG. 42

7.2 USE OF THE CONTROLS

The MODE function (button ‘E’) and the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ programming control buttons (‘F’ and ‘G’) are for use by the installation/commissioning engineer during the initial set-up of the boiler running parameters.

To read or set these parameters, first press the reset button (‘D’), and while this is still held, press the MODE button (‘E’) for at least five seconds. The first digit of the multifunction display will show a ‘1’, followed by the value this parameter is set at (default: ‘60’). Repeatedly pressing the reset button will cycle through the available parameters to view and change. The value of these parameters can be altered via the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ programming control buttons.

These values are stored when cycling to the next parameter (via the reset button), or once the parameter modification mode is properly exited. This is achieved either by pressing the MODE button, or by leaving the ‘+’ and ‘-‘ buttons untouched for 90 seconds.

(continued overleaf)

7.3 MODE FUNCTION – ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS

To access the information-only parameters, press and hold the MODE button (‘E’) for 15 seconds. Repeatedly pressing the reset button will cycle through the available parameters to view. To exit from this function, press the MODE button once more, or leave the reset, ‘+’ and ‘-‘ buttons idle for 30 seconds.

7.4 MODE FUNCTION – INFORMATION PARAMETERS

To prevent damage to the appliance during very cold weather, it is advisable to fit an external frost thermostat to the installation, which will supersede the central heating and hot water settings to temporarily activate the boiler should the temperature drop too low.

When activated, the comfort function will enable the boiler to keep a permanent store of heated water within the appliance. As such, this will improve water delivery times, providing domestic hot water at a quicker than usual rate.

To activate the comfort function, press button ‘P’. The yellow LED (item M, fig 42) will illuminate. To deactivate, press this once more.

Please note that when activated, the comfort function will cause the boiler to operate at times outside of those specified by the user.

The yellow LED (‘M’) will also be illuminated when the DHW mode is active on the system (SB) model.

After an appliance malfunction, the boiler will enter a lock-out state (indicated by the illumination of LED ‘H’). Restart the boiler by pressing reset button ‘D’. Should it attempt to fire and fail for a second time, refer to the fault-finding guide (section 13, page 39).

The user should be informed that they should periodically check the system pressure on gauge ‘S’ to the pressure set. If this has dropped, reset the pressure to the correct setting by gradually opening the filling loop on the underside of the boiler. Close the loop once the desired pressure has been reached.

Should the system pressure fall too low, the multifunction display will show the error code ‘E 02’. If this should occur, once the pressure has been returned to normal, switch the boiler off then on, using ON/OFF button ‘A’.

If during normal operation the system pressure drops on a regular basis, in most cases there will be a heating system fault, rather than a boiler fault. For

details of other fault codes and general fault-finding, refer to section 13.

After 21 hours of inactivity, the pump will activate for 15 seconds. During this time, the diverter valve will change position to DHW mode, before returning to normal.

To ensure the safe and efficient operation of the appliance, the boiler must be serviced annually, by a CORGI-registered engineer. Failure to do so will invalidate the appliance guarantee.

To clean the appliance casing, switch off the boiler and isolate the power supply. Wipe with a damp cloth. Do not use detergents, harsh liquids, or other toxic products.

To guarantee production of domestic hot water and the operation of the frost thermostat and comfort function at all times, it is recommended that the boiler is not switched off during normal use via the ON/OFF button ‘A’. Instead, turn off the programmer, or deactivate the heating via the control knob ‘B’.

If the appliance must remain off for any long periods of time during very cold weather, it is advisable to completely drain the heating system. This operation is essential if there are no antifreeze additives in the system.

The boiler heat exchanger is constructed from aluminium alloy. Only use additives in the heating system if it is strictly necessary, and if such additives are compatible with this type of material. If in doubt, please contact the additive manufacturer.

7.9 ANTILOCK FUNCTION

The combustion analysis should be carried out in heating mode. While in this function, the boiler temperature limits are deactivated and the boiler will operate at the maximum setting of 88°C.

However, should this be problematic (e.g. in summer), it is possible to use the domestic hot water circuit (combi model only). In this case, when the function is active, the temperature limits are deactivated and the boiler will keep active the domestic hot water temperature only, set at 78°C .

To perform the combustion analysis, first activate the specific function by pressing the reset button (‘D’) for more than 5 seconds.

The multifunction display should now read:

“t – –“

To perform a combustion analysis at maximum output, subsequently press buttons ‘+’ and ‘-‘. The

multifunction display should now read:

“t ¯ ¯ “

To perform a combustion analysis at minimum output, press button ‘-‘. The multifunction display should now

read:

“t _ _ “

This function remains active for a maximum of 5 minutes.

Remove the screw (marked ‘V’ on fig 43) from the flue offtake, then the small cover and gasket. This gives access to the test points for the analyser.

Using the method detailed above, run the boiler at its maximum output. Wait for the boiler to stabilise and perform the combustion analysis, checking the results against the figures outlined in the following table:

If the values are found to be inconsistent with these, turn the gas valve regulator (item B, fig 44) in the appropriate direction. Turning anti-clockwise will increase the CO

; turning clockwise will decrease the

. Please note that due to the sensitivity of the

screw, only small adjustments will be necessary.

Once adjustment has been made, wait until the CO

level stabilises and recheck the combustion. Repeat the above steps as necessary.

Using the method detailed above, run the boiler at its minimum output. Wait for the boiler to stabilise and perform the combustion analysis, checking the results against the figures outlined in the following table:

To ensure safe and efficient operation of the appliance, the boiler must be serviced at least once a year by a CORGI-registered engineer. Failure to do so will invalidate the guarantee.

Before and after servicing, a combustion analysis must be performed, in accordance with the instructions given in section 10, page 35.

To access the internal chamber of the boiler, refer to section 4, page 16.

Before carrying out any work on the gas-carrying parts, always switch off the supply to the appliance.

Always isolate the electrical supply to the boiler before carrying out any work on electrical components.

- Call up the last fault stored by the appliance onto the multifunction display (see section 7.4, page 33 for visualisation codes).

- The display will now show the last fault to occur with the boiler (see section 13.1, page 40 for fault codes). It should then be ascertained whether this fault was rectified. Carry out any action as necessary.

- Perform a visual check of the flue and associated seals for evidence of gaps and splits. Repair as necessary.

- Check the gas supply pressure against the figures specified on the technical specification table (section 2, page 7).

- Check the combustion analysis figures for the CO

against those given in section 10, page 35.

- Check the gas and water systems for leaks.

- On the combi (CB) model only, check the hot

water outlet temperature does not exceed that given on the technical specification table.
