12 Installation and maintenance instructions ecoTEC sustain 0020253094_01
Caution. Risk of material damage due to the gas
leak-tightness test.
At a test pressure of >11 kPa (110 mbar), gas leak-tightness tests may cause damage to the gas valve.
If, during gas leak-tightness tests, you
also place the gas lines and the gas valve in the product under pressure, use a max. test pressure of 11 kPa (110 mbar).
If you cannot limit the test pressure to
11 kPa (110 mbar), close any gas isolator cocks that are installed upstream from the product before you carry out the gas leak­tightness test.
If, during gas leak-tightness tests, you
have closed the gas isolator cock that is installed upstream of the product, relieve the gas line pressure before you open this gas isolator cock.
Caution. Risk of material damage caused by corro-
sion
Due to non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes in the heating installation, air gets into the heating water. Air in the heating water causes corro­sion in the heat generator circuit and in the product.
If you use non-diffusion-tight plastic pipes
in the heating installation, ensure that no air gets into the heat generator circuit.
Caution. Risk of material damage due to heat trans-
fer during soldering.
Only solder connection pieces if the con-
nection pieces are not yet screwed to the service valves.
Caution. Risk of material damage caused by
changes to the connected pipes.
Only bend connection pipes if they have
not yet been connected to the product.
5.1 Installation requirements
5.1.1 Information on liquid gas operation
In the as-delivered condition, the product is preset for opera­tion with the gas group indicated on the identification plate.
If you have a product that has been preset for operation with natural gas, you must convert it to run on liquid gas. You will need a conversion kit for this. The conversion procedure is described in the manual supplied with the conversion kit.
5.1.2 Purging the liquid gas tank
If the liquid gas tank is not purged properly, this may result in ignition problems.
Ensure that the liquid gas tank has been purged properly
before installing the product.
If required, contact the filler or the liquid gas supplier.
5.1.3 Using the correct type of gas
Using the incorrect type of gas may cause fault shutdowns in the product. Ignition and combustion noise may occur in the product.
Only use the gas type listed on the identification plate.
5.1.4 Required preliminary work
1. Make sure that the existing gas meter is capable of passing the rate of gas supply required.
2. Install a system separator (to be provided on-site) dir­ectly on the cold water connection for the combination unit.

5.3 Connecting the condensate drain pipework
min. 180
1
2
Follow the instructions listed here and observe directives
and local regulations on condensed water discharge.
Use PVC or another material that is suitable for draining
the non-neutralised condensed water.
If you cannot guarantee that the materials from which the
condensate discharge pipe is made are suitable, install a system to neutralise the condensate.
Note
The condensate drain pipework must have a continuous fall (45 mm per metre) and should whenever possible terminate at a suitable drain point within the heated envelope of the building that will remain frost free under long periods of low external temperatures.
Connect the condensate siphon (1). Use the supplied
condensate drain hose (2) to do this.
Connect a condensate discharge pipe (21.5 mm, not in-
cluded in the scope of delivery) to the condensate dis­charge hose (2).
During installation remove all burs from inside of cut pipe
work and avoid excessive adhesive which may trap small pockets of water close to the pipe wall which can freeze and build into a larger ice plug.
As with other pipe work insulate the condensate dis-
charge pipe to minimise any risk of freezing and beware when crossing cavities that the fall is maintained and the pipe sleeved.
You can find further information in the "BS 6798" specific­ation for installing and maintaining gas-fired boilers with a nominal heat load of less than 70 kW.
5.4 Installing the discharge pipe on the expansion relief valve

F Inspection and maintenance work – Overview
The table below lists the manufacturer requirements with respect to minimum inspection and maintenance intervals. If na­tional regulations and directives require shorter inspection and maintenance intervals, you should observe these instead of the intervals listed in the table.
No. Work
Inspection
(annual)
Mainten-
ance
(must be
carried out
at regular intervals)
1
Check whether the air/flue pipe is fully leak-tight and has been secured in placed correctly. Make sure that it is not damaged or blocked and that it has been installed correctly in accordance with the relevant set-up instructions.
X X
2
Check the general condition of the product. Remove any dirt from the product and the vacuum chamber.
X X
3
Visually inspect the general condition of the Thermoblock. In doing so, pay particular attention to signs of corrosion, rust and other defects. If you find any damage, carry out maintenance work.
X X
4
Check the gas flow pressure at maximum heat input. If the gas flow pressure is not within the correct range, carry out maintenance work.
X X
5
Check the product's COcontent (air ratio) and adjust this, if required. Keep a record of this procedure.
X X
6
Disconnect the product from the power mains. Ensure that the electricity, gas and water connec­tions have been attached correctly and, if required, correct these.
X X
7
Close the gas isolator cock and the service valves.
X
8
Drain the product on the water side (observe the pressure gauge). Check the pre-charge pres­sure of the expansion vessel, and top up the vessel if necessary (approx. 0.03 MPa/0.3 bar un­der the system filling pressure).
X
9
Remove the compact thermal module.
X
10
Check the insulating mats in the combustion area. If you notice any damage, replace the insulat­ing mats. Replace the burner flange insulation each time it is opened and accordingly each time maintenance is carried out.
X
11
Clean the heat exchanger.
X
12
Make sure that the burner is not damaged. Replace it if necessary.
X
13
Check the condensate trap in the product, clean and fill this, if required.

14
Install the compact thermal module. Caution: Replace the seals.
X
15
If the water volume is insufficient or the output temperature is not reached, replace the second­ary heat exchanger if necessary.
X
16
Clean the strainer in the cold water inlet. Replace the strainer if impurities can no longer be removed or if the strainer is damaged. In this case, also check the impeller sensor for dirt and damage, clean the sensor (do not use compressed air for this) and replace the sensor if it is damaged.
X
17
Open the gas isolator cock, reconnect the product to the mains and switch it on.
X X
18
Open the service valves, fill the product or heating installation to 0.1-0.2 MPa/1.0-2.0 bar (de­pending on the static height of the heating installation) and start the purge programme P.00.

G.2 Horizontal terminal positioning
BS 5440-1 recommends that fanned flue chimney terminals should be positioned as follows:
a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly opposite, and
b) so that the products of combustion are not directed to discharge directly across a boundary if the products are likely to cause a nuisance to a neighbour or discharge over a walkway or patio.
For IE see current issue of IS 813.
For boilers covered within this manual.
1) Dimensions D, E, F and G:
These clearances may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to ensure that the con­densate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended as shown below.
Balcony/eaves
Gutter
Adequately secured air/flue gas pipe
The flue pipe must protrude beyond any overhang
2) Dimension H:
This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without affecting the performance of the boiler. However, in order to ensure that the condensate plume does not affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm is preferred.
For 1 and 2 above you can use a flue gas management kit to enable the termination point to be positioned and directed away from the building fabric.

PRIOR TO CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO CHECK
The boiler manufacturer’s installation instructions should have been followed, gas type verified and gas
supply pressure/rate checked as required prior to commissioning.
As part of the installation process, especially where a flue has been fitted by persons other than the
boiler installer, visually check the integrity of the whole flue system to confirm that all components are
correctly assembled, fixed and supported. Check that manufacturer’s max. flue lengths have not been
exceeded and all guidance has been followed (e.g. Gas Safe Technical Bulletin TB008).
The flue gas analyser should be of the correct type, as specified by BS 7967
Prior to its use, the flue gas analyser should have been maintained and calibrated as specified by the
manufacturer. The installer must have the relevant competence for use of the analyser.
Check and zero the analyser IN FRESH AIR as per analyser manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE
THE AIR GAS RATIO VALVE IS FACTORY
SET AND MUST NOT BE ADJUSTED
DURING COMMISSIONING UNLESS THIS
ACTION IS RECOMMENDED FOLLOWING
CONTACT WITH THE MANUFACTURER.
If any such adjustment is recommended and
further checking of the boiler is required the
installer/service engineer must be competent
to carry out this work and to use the flue gas
analyser accordingly.
If the boiler requires conversion to operate with
a different gas family (e.g. conversion from
natural gas to LPG) separate guidance will be
provided by the boiler manufacturer
CARRY OUT FLUE INTEGRITY CHECK USING ANALYSER
Insert analyser probe into air inlet test point and allow readings to stabilise.
NOTE - where no air inlet test point is provided then a flue integrity check
with the analyser is not possible. The installer should verify that flue
integrity has been visually checked in accordance with the “Prior to
CO and combustion ratio check” box above before proceeding to the
“Check CO and combustion ratio at maximum rate” stage below.
SET BOILER TO MINIMUM RATE
In accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at minimum rate (to
minimum load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.
NOTE - If manufacturer’s instructions do not specify how to set boiler to minimum
rate contact Technical Helpline for advice.
CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MINIMUM RATE
With boiler still set at minimum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas sampling
point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.
NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is not
specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.
CHECK CO AND COMBUSTION RATIO AT MAX. RATE
With boiler still set at maximum rate, insert analyser probe into flue gas
sampling point. Allow readings to stabilise before recording.
NOTE - If no flue gas sampling point is present and the correct procedure is
not specified in the manual, consult boiler manufacturer for guidance.
SET BOILER TO MAXIMUM RATE
In accordance with boiler instructions, set boiler to operate at max. rate
(full load condition). Allow sufficient time for combustion to stabilise.
NOTE - Do not insert analyser probe during this period to avoid
possible “flooding” of sensor.

Complete Benchmark Checklist, recording CO and combustion ratio
readings as required.
TURN OFF APPLIANCE AND CALL
MANUFACTURER’S TECHNICAL HELPLINE
FOR ADVICE.
THE APPLIANCE MUST NOT BE
COMMISSIONED UNTIL PROBLEMS ARE
IDENTIFIED AND RESOLVED.
VERIFY FLUE INTEGRITY
Analyser readings indicate that combustion products and inlet air must be mixing. Further investigation of
the flue is therefore required.
Check that flue components are assembled, fixed
and supported as per boiler/flue manufacturer’s
instructions.
Check that flue and flue terminal are not obstructed.
