INTRODUCTION
The TURBOmax Pro is a fully automatic, wall mounted, room sealed combination boiler for central heating and domestic hot water. Domestic hot water is supplied directly from the boiler, without requiring a copper cylinder, cold water tank, feed and expansion tank and associated pipework. Domestic hot water has priority over central heating.
The boiler has been designed for use with a sealed central heating system, and comes fully tested and assembled with a built in circulating pump, expansion vessel and diverter valve.
The TURBOmax Pro has an output for domestic hot water of 28 kW. The boiler is easily sited on any internal wall and can be installed with either a horizontal or vertical RSF (room sealed fan assisted) flue. Two types of flue system are available, rear flue outlet, top outlet (with turret) concentric flue system (100 mm outside diameter) and an extended concentric flue system (125 mm outside diameter). Flue extensions and additional bends and elbows are available for both flue systems to increase the siting flexibility. The boiler is not suitable for external installation.
This boiler is available in Natural Gas. An optional LPG conversion kit is available.
If desired, an inhibitor may be used in the system. Guidance on the use of inhibitors is contained in these instructions.
The boiler contains a domestic hot water heat exchanger. The temperature in the heat exchanger is limited by the boiler control system and it is not necessary to install a
scale reducer on the cold mains to the boiler. However, in exceptionally hard water areas to prevent scale formation in the property hot water system pipework, a scale reducer may be fitted.
TURBOmax Pro combination boilers have a built in diagnostic system which indicates the operational status of the boiler. This feature provides key information to aid commissioning and fault finding.
The data badge is fitted on the rear of the control panel.
See text of General Requirements for installation requirements or notes.
Vaillant ltd. support the Benchmark initiative. Within the information pack, you will find a Benchmark Log Book. It is very important that this is completed correctly at the time of installation, commisioning and hando­ver to the user.
Note: This boiler must be installed and service by a competent person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations
1998. In the UK „CORGI“ registered installers undertake the work to a safe and satisfactory standard.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Gas Supply
The gas supplier should ensure the availability of an adequate supply of gas.
A gas meter may only be connected to the service pipe by the supplier of gas or their contractor.
An existing meter should be checked to ensure that it is capable of passing the rate of gas supply required.
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with BS 6891.
Pipework from the meter to the boiler must be of an adequate size. Do not use pipes of a smaller size than the boiler gas connection (15 mm).
The complete installation must be tested for soundness and purged as described in BS 6891.
Boiler location
The location chosen for the boiler must permit the provision of a satisfactory flue termination. The location must also provide adequate space for servicing and air circulation around the boiler. The boiler may be installed in any room, although particular attention is drawn to the requirements of BS7671 (IEE Regulations) and, in Scotland, the electrical provisions of the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations, in respect of the installation of a boiler in a room containing a bath or shower.
Where the installation of the boiler will be in an unusual location, special procedures may be necessary and BS 5546 and BS 6798 give detailed guidance on this aspect. The boiler must be mounted on a flat, vertical wall, which must be sufficiently robust to take the weight of the boiler. The boiler may be installed on a combustible wall, subject to the requirements of the Local Authorities and Building Regulations. A compartment used to enclose the boiler must be designed and constructed specifically for this purpose. (An existing cupboard or compartment may be used provided that it is modified for the purpose). Details of essential features of cupboard/compartment design including airing cupboard installations are given in BS 6798. If the boiler is to be fitted in a timber framed building, it should be fitted in accordance with Institute of Gas Engineers Publication IGE/UP/7/1998 „Guide for Gas Installation in Timber Framed Housing“.
Note: Where a room sealed boiler is installed in a room containing a bath or shower, any electrical switch or boiler control utilising mains electricity should be so situated that it cannot be touched by a person using the bath or shower.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Flue termination
The following details refer to both flue systems.
a. The terminal must be positioned
such that the products of combustion can disperse freely at all times.
b. In certain weather conditions a
plume of water vapour may be visible from the flue terminal. Positions where this could be a nuisance should be avoided.
c. If the terminal is fitted less than
2 m above a balcony, above ground or above a flat roof to which people have access then a suitable terminal guard; 280 mm x 280 mm deep, must be provided and fitted (made by Tower Flue Components, Tonbridge, TN9 1TB).
Note: Vertical flues must not terminate within 600 mm of an openable window, air vent or any other ventilation opening.
Where a terminal is fitted less than 1 m below a plastic gutter or less than 0.5 m below painted eaves or any other painted surface then a sui­table shield at least 1 m long should be fitted to protect the surface.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Cupboard or compartment ventilation
TURBOmax Pro combination boilers are very high efficiency appliances. As a consequence the heat loss from the appliance casing during operation is very low. For cupboard or compartment installations it is therefore not necessary to provide any high or low level permanent air vents for cooling purposes.
Air supply
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in BS 5440: Part 2.
It is not necessary to have an air vent in the room or internal space in which the boiler is installed.
Electrical supply
A 230 V, ~ 50 Hz single phase electricity supply fused to 3 Amp. must be provided in accordance with the latest edition of BS7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) and any other local regulations that may apply.
The method of connection to the mains electricity supply must provide a means of completely isolating the boiler and its ancillary controls. Isolation is preferably by the use of a fused three pin plug and unswitched shuttered socket outlet, both complying with the requirements of BS 1363. Alternatively, a 3 Amp. fused doublepole switch with a 3 mm contact separation on both poles may be used.
This appliance must be earthed.
14
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Guide to system requirements
Water circulation system
Detailed recommendations for the water circulation system are given in BS 6798 and BS 5449: Part 1 (for small bore and micro bore central heating systems).
Pipework not forming part of the useful heating surface should be insulated to help prevent heat loss and possible freezing, particularly where pipes are run through roof spaces and ventilated underfloor spaces.
Draining taps must be located in accessible positions which permit the draining of the whole system including the boiler and the hot water system. Draining taps should be at least 1/2 in. BSP nominal size and be in accordance with BS 2879.
The boiler is suitable for use with minibore or microbore systems. Copper tubing to BS 2871: Part 1 should be used for water carrying pipework. All capillary joints in the DHW pipework must be made with lead free solder.
Particularly where a new boiler is to be fitted to an existing system, it is good practice that the system is thoroughly cleansed. This cleansing should take place prior to the fitting of the new boiler and be in accordance with BS 7593.
For advice on the application of system cleansers contact either Sentinel, Betz Dearborn Ltd. Widnes, Cheshire, WA8 8UD. Tel: 0151 495 1861 or Fernox Alpha-Fry Technologies Tandem House Marlow Way, Beddington Farm Road Croydon CRO 4xS Tel. 0870 601 5000 Fernox technical help line 01799 550811
Filling and make up
The system should be filled with water via a seperate filling point at a convienient position on the heating cicuit. The connection must be removed when filling is completed. Where local Water Authority regulation does not allow temporary connection, a sealed system filler pump with break tank must be used. The heating system will not be filled automatically from the domestic hot water side.
(Alternative methods of filling sealed systems are given in BS 5449).
Pressure relief valve
A pressure relief valve is provided with the boiler. This safety device is required on all sealed C.H. systems and is preset at 3 bar and provided with a 15 mm compression connec­tion for a discharge pipe, which must be of no less than 15 mm in diame­ter. The Pressure Relief Valve must not be used for draining purposes.
Pressure gauge
This is factory fitted to the boiler and indicates the primary circuit pressure to facilitate filling and testing.
15
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
Expansion vessel
The 28 kW boiler incorporates a 10 litre expansion vessel which is suitable for a sealed heating system with a maximum water content of 100 litres.
If the nominal capacity of the built in expansion vessel is not sufficient for the heating system (for instance in case of modernisation of old open systems) an additional expansion vessel can be installed external to the boiler. It should be fitted in the return pipe as close as possible to the boiler in accordance with BS 5449: Part 1.

BOILER INSTALLATION SEQUENCE
For optimum fuel economy it is recommended that where TRV’s are used they are used in conjunction with a programmable room thermostat or separate timer and room thermostat to ensure complete boiler shut down when the heating demand is satisfied. (The radiator in the room containing the room thermostat should not be fitted with a TRV).
Frost protection
The boiler has an integral frost thermostat which is designed for protection of the boiler. To protect remote or exposed parts of the heating system or property additional frost protection measures must be taken such as the installation of an external frost thermostat. This frost thermostat should be connected across the boiler terminals 3 and 4, in parallel with any external heating controls.
Circulating pump
The boiler incorporates a built in circulating pump that is fully prewired (no additional wiring is necessary). The pump incorporates an automatic overrun period after the boiler switches off.
Anti-cycling ‘economiser’ control
The boiler incorporates a built in anti-cycling control to ensure that energy wasteful short cycling of the boiler cannot occur. This control prevents the boiler from re-igniting for a preset period of 5 minutes after central heating operation (the hot water operation is unaffected by this control and hot water can be drawn at any time).
Automatic pump spin control (APS)
The boiler incorporates a built in control which will spin the built in circulating pump and operate the diverter valve once in a 24 hour period. This control helps to prevent seizure when the boiler is not operated for a period of time. This control is not active when the power supply to the appliance is turned off.
Note: To temporarily override the anti-cycling control turn the main boiler on/off switch to the off position „0“ and then back to the on position „I“ after a few seconds.

COMMISSIONING PART I
Preliminary electrical checks
Check the electrical installation by carrying out short circuit, earth continuity and resistance to earth tests and a check for correct polarity.
Gas supply
The complete gas installation including the gas meter must be inspected, tested for soundness and purged in accordance with BS 6891.
The gas supply to the boiler can be purged by slackening the gas service valve beneath the boiler. Ensure that there is adequate ventilation, extinguish all naked flames and do not smoke whilst purging.
After purging, the gas service valve connection must be retightened and tested for soundness. (The boiler itself does not require purging as this will be done by the automatic burner sequence control).
Water supply
Open all domestic hot water taps supplied by the boiler, turn on the mains water supply to the boiler and open the mains water isolating valve below the boiler.
Water will now flow through the boiler to the hot taps. Starting with the lowest tap supplied, turn the hot taps off one at a time until the hot water pipework is purged of air.
Check all hot and cold water pipework for leaks.

COMMISSIONING PART I
Initial system flush („cold“)
The whole of the heating system must be flushed out at least twice: once cold, and once hot as instructed later on page 41.
Open all radiator or heating valves and the boiler CH service valves and drain the heating system and boiler completely from the lowest points of the system via 1/2” BSP drain taps (opened full bore to remove any installation debris prior to lighting the boiler).
Refill the heating system.
Check the operation of the pressure relief valve by rotating the knob on the valve.
Filling the heating system
Proceed as follows to fill the system:
Open all radiator valves on the
system.
Fill the system via the seperate
filling point.
Open the valve slowly and fill the
unit with water until the required amount has been added (2).
Bleed the air from the radiators.
The boiler is equipped with an
automatic air release valve. To allow this to vent the boiler, the cap top must be slackened by 1 - 2 turns. (This cap must be left slackened during operation to ensure any residual air or system gases are released).
Close the filling valve (1) and
disconnect the temporary connection.
Now check the water pressure in
the unit again (and add more water if necessary).

GAS SUPPLY ADJUSTMENTS (COMMISSIONING PART II)
Adjusting the central heating output (range rating)
The TURBOmax Pro is fully modulating for central heating, and it is therefore not necessary to range rate the boiler. However, if desired, it is possible to range rate the boiler, as follows:
Connect the U-gauge to check
burner pressure (1 and 2).
Use Table G.2 on page 37 to
determine the central heating output required.
Identify required range rating
setting and note main burner pressure in mbar for that output.
Turn on the central heating.
Turn the central heating maximum
radiator temperature control to its highest setting.
Ensure that any thermostatic
radiator valves are open and set to high.
Wait for approx. 2 minutes until
the burner pressure switches to full load.
The central heating output can now
be altered by inserting an electricans screwdriver into the potentiometer (3).
Turn the potentiometer fully
anticlockwise.
Slowly turn the potentiometer
clockwise, whilst observing the U-gauge.
Stop turning the potentiometer
when the burner pressure is at the correct setting for the output required.
Turn off the hot tap.
Remove U-gauge, tighten test point
sealing screw (1).
Reassemble the boiler.
Refit plastic plug in chamber
sensing tube.
Carry out all safety checks as
detailed in these instructions.
Record central heating operating
pressure in the Benchmark log book along with the heat input (kW) and temperature difference between flow and return.
DO NOT open any hot water tap whilst carrying out this procedure.
This illustration shows the U-tube pressure gauge connected to a system configured to run on natural gas. When connecting the U-tube pressure gauge to a system running on LPG, please refer to Fig. G.2 on page 35.

Providing the boiler has not
achieved its set temperature, and the anti-cycling control is not activated, the boiler will start its lighting sequence. Once the fan and flue system have proved their satisfactory operation the fan operation indicator (4) will light.
The gas valve will open and
sparking will commence at the burner. The ignition indicator (5) will illuminate.
As soon as the burner has ignited
and the flame has been sensed the flame indicator (6) will illuminate.
By illuminating in this sequence the
indicator lights have demonstrated correct operation of the boiler for CH.
Note: Should the boiler fail to light it will attempt 2 re-ignition sequences, if the boiler still fails to light the burner lock out indicator will illuminate (7).

FUNCTIONAL CHECKS
(COMMISSIONING PART III)
Adjusting pump speed
The unit is fitted with a two-speed pump. The pump is delivered with the switch (1) set to position II.
Important note: The boiler should only be operated at pump setting II because the heating capacity for hot water is reduced when operated at pump setting I!
It is possible, however, to change the pump setting from Level II to Level I manually when there is noise coming from the heating system.
Final system flush („HOT“)
Turn on the boiler for central heating and allow the boiler and system to reach operating temperature. Check that the heating system is watertight. Turn the boiler off and rapidly drain both boiler and system while still hot:
Refill the system and release all air. Release water from the system until the system design pressure of 1.0 bar is attained.
(The actual reading on the pressure gauge should ideally be 0.5 bar plus an additional pressure corresponding to the highest point of the system above the base of the boiler - 10 m head equals an additional 1 bar reading on the pressure gauge. The minimum pressure should not be less than 1 bar in any installation.)
If the system is to be treated with an inhibitor it should be applied at this stage. Sentinel X100 is suitable for this purpose and it should be applied in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
Further information can be obtained from Sentinel, Betz Dearborn Ltd., Tel: 0151 4951861.
Disconnect the temporary filling connection.
Refit the boiler casing Attach the bottom cover to the boiler
by securing with the four screws provided. It may be necessary to apapt the bottom cover by removing the easy break sections.

SERVICING
43
Before commencing any servicing or maintenance work, carry out an initial inspection of the system as follows:
Inspect the flue, pipework and
electrical connections for indications of damage or deterioration.
Inspect the air supply and
ventilation arrangements of the installation.
Check the heating and water
system, in particular the condition of radiator valves, evidence of leakage from the heating system and dripping hot water taps.
Functional check of boiler operation
Carry out a functional check of the
boiler operation as prevoiusly detailed.
Remove the appliance casing as
detailed on page 20 and operate the boiler by fully opening a hot water tap. Inspect the burner operation through the viewing window. Check that the flames are evenly covering the surface of the burner. Inspect for signs of excessive flame lift or sooting.
Initial Inspection
To ensure the continued safe and efficient operation of the boiler 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 per year should be adequate. It is the law that all ser­vicing work is carried out by a com­petent person (Corgi registered).
Important: Before starting any maintenance work:
Isolate the mains electricity supply
by disconnecting the plug at the socket outlet (if there is only an isolating switch remove the fuse from the switch).
Turn OFF the gas supply at the gas
service valve fitted to the boiler.
Always test for gas soundness and
always carry out functional checks after any service work and after exchanging any gas carrying component.
Always check earth continuity,
polarity and resistance to earth with a multimeter after any service work and after exchanging any electrical component.
Note: The boiler is fitted with a combustion analysis test point. A suitable combustion analyser can be connected to this point to establish the combustion performance of the boiler.

FAULT FINDING
Flame indicator (yellow)
Illuminates when flame is recognised by the flame monitoring system. (A flashing indicator shows that an NTC sensor is broken, not connected or shorted to earth.)
Burner lockout indicator (red)
Illuminates if the burner fails to light within 10 seconds of illumination of the ignition indicator after the 3rd ignition cycle. (A flashing indicator shows a failure in the electronic boards.) To reset the appliance after a lockout (either burner lockout illuminated or any other indicator light flashing), turn the central heating control to the reset position ( ) and release.
Fault finding
Introduction
The TURBOmax Pro has built in diagnostic indicator lights to assist you with fault finding in the unlikely event of a boiler malfunction. The lights will illuminate in sequence, indicating the operational status of the boiler. Should a fault develop in the boiler the indicators may flash highlighting the possible fault e.g.
Power on indicator (green)
Illuminates when the electricity supply to the boiler is on, the main on/off control is set to position ( ) and the internal boiler fuses are o.k. (A flashing indicator shows that the overheat thermostat has cut out.)
Hot water demand indicator (yellow)
Illuminates whenever there is a demand for hot water i.e. a hot water tap is opened.
Central heating demand indicator (yellow)
Illuminates whenever there is a demand for central heating i.e. the radiator temperature control is turned on and the external heating controls are calling for heat.
Note: If the external controls are not calling for heat (i.e. the room thermostat has reached temperature) this indicator will go out. This is perfectly normal.
Fan operation indicator (yellow)
Illuminates to indicate that the fan is operating and has been checked by the fan pressure switch. (A flashing indicator shows that the air pressure switch has not made.)
Ignition indicator (yellow)
Illuminates when gas valve, operator and ignition transformer are energised. This indicator remains on during burner operation. (A flashing indicator shows lack of water or poor water circulation in central heating system.)
Logical fault finding procedure
Preliminary Checks
These checks must be carried out before attempting to use the fault finding guide:
1) Carry out electrical safety checks.
2) Check that the external electricity supply to the boiler is on, and a supply of 230 V~ is present between boiler terminals „L“ and „N“.
3) Check that gas supply to the boiler is on and that it has been correctly purged.
4) Ensure the heating system is full of water and charged to approx. 1 bar. If not refill the system and vent system. Ensure boiler flow and return service valves are open.
5) Check that boiler main on/off control is set to position ( )
6) Ensure that the Maximum Radiator Temperature and Maximum Hot Water Temperature controls are set to high position.
7) Check that all the external controls are on and calling for heat (if no external controls are fitted, boiler terminals 3 and 4 must be linked). Check that boiler anti-cycling „economiser“ control is not engaged.
Procedure Note: Always check the operation of
the boiler for central heating first before checking hot water operation. Do not open a hot tap unless instructed to by the fault finding guide.
