The Vitocrossal CU3A series boiler is approved for closet and alcove installation with the clearances to combustibles listed above.
Note: The Vitocrossal 300 CU3A series boiler conforms to the zero inches vent clearance to combustibles testing requirements dictated by the boiler Harmonized Standard ANSI Z21.13. CSA/4.9 and therefore is listed for zero clearance to combustibles when vented with a single-wall UL/ ULC certified special venting system. The zero inches vent clearance to combustibles for the Vitocrossal 300 CU3A boiler supercedes the clearance to combustibles listing that appears
on the special venting system label.
The back or side clearance shall be increased if piping installation is required.
Recommended minimum service clearances
For typical Vitocrossal CU3A series boiler installations, Viessmann recommends installing the boiler with the clearances shown in the illustration on the left.
See the Vitocrossal 300 CU3A Venting System Installation Instructions for details.

Design and Function
Functions
■Weather-compensated control of the boiler water and/or supply temperature
■Control of one heating circuit without mixer and two heating circuits with mixer (with accessory mixing valve extension modules)
■Demand-dependent heating circuit pump and burner off control
■Adjustment of a variable heating limit
■Anti-seizing pump protection
■Integral diagnostic system
■Maintenance display
■DHW temperature control with priority
■Auxiliary function for DHW heating (short-term heating to a higher temperature)
■0-10V External signal input
■0-10V Pump speed control output signal
Control Characteristics
PI characteristics with modulating output.
Time Switch
Digital time switch.
■Individual and 7-day program
■Automatic daylight savings time changeover
■Automatic function for DHW heating and DHW recirculation pump
■Time, day and standard switching times for space heating, DHW heating and the DHW recirculation pump are factory-set
■Switching times are individually programmable, i.e. up to four switching periods per day
Shortest switching interval: 10 minutes Power backup: 14 days.
Setting the Operating Programs
The heating system frost protection (see
frost protection function) applies to all heating programs. You can select the following heating programs with the program keys:
■Heating and DHW
■DHW only
■Standby mode
External heating program changeover.
Frost protection
■The frost protection function will be started when the outside temperature drops below approx. 34°F (1°C). With the frost protection function, the heating circuit
pump will be switched ON and the boiler water is maintained at a lower temperature of approx. 68°F (20°C).
The DHW tank will be heated to approx. 68°F (20°C).
■The frost protection function will be stopped when the outside temperature rises above approx. 37°F (3°C) (default settings).
Summer Operation
Heating program “w”
The burner is only activated upon a call for domestic hot water from the DHW storage tank (controlled by DHW tank temperature sensor).
