USERS INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer Your Vokèra VISION PLUS boiler has been designed to meet and exceed the very latest standards in gas central heating tech-
nology, and if cared for, will give years of reliable use and efciency.
Please therefore take some time to read these instructions carefully.
Do’s and Don’t’s
- Do ensure that the system pressure is periodically checked
- Do ensure that the boiler should not be used by children or unassisted disabled people
- Do ensure that you know how to isolate the appliance in an emergency
- Do ensure that you are familiar with the appliance controls

1.4A APPLIANCE COMMISSI
ONING CHECKLIST
(UK ONLY)
A checklist section can be found at the rear of the appliance installation booklet. This important document must be com­pleted during the installation/commissioning of your boiler. All GAS SAFE registered installers carry a GAS SAFE ID card, and have a registration number. These details should be re­corded in the Benchmark commissioning checklist section within the installation booklet. You can check your installers details by calling GAS SAFE direct on 08004085500. Failure to install and commission the appliance in accordance with the manufacturers instructions will invalidate the warranty. This does not affect your statutory rights.
1.5A HOW DOES IT WORK?
Your VISION PLUS boiler supplies heated water to your radia­tors and hot water to your hot water taps. The central heating is controlled via a time clock and any thermostats that your installer may have tted. The boiler will light when it receives a request from the time clock via any thermostat that may be installed, or whenever a hot water outlet (tap) is opened. Your VISION PLUS boiler lights electronically and does not have a pilot light. In the unlikely event of a fault developing with your boiler, the supply of gas to the burner will be terminated automatically.

1.8A FROST PROTECTION SYSTEM
The VISION PLUS is equipped with a built-in frost protection system, this enables the boiler to over-ride the time controls – even if switched off – and operate the burner and/or pump, should the temperature drop below 50C for the main and for the DHW line. In particular the burner will be in ON status until the
main temperature reaches 35°C for CH appliance and 55°C for DHW appliance. Please note that the frost protection system is designed to protect the appliance only, should frost protection be required for the heating system, additional controls may be required.
NOTE
The frost protection system is reliant on the appliance having a permanent electrical supply, and being in a non-fault condition.

3.1A HOW TO TOP-UP THE SYSTEM PRESSURE
The system pressure must be checked periodically to ensure the correct operation of the boiler. Scroll the INFO menu to
10.18, the displayed pressure should be reading between 1 and
1.5 BAR when the boiler is in an off position and has cooled
to room temperature. If the pressure requires ‘topping-up’ use the following instructions as a guide.
- Locate the lling valve connections (usually beneath the
boiler, see Fig. 2).
- Attach the lling loop to both connections.
- Open the lling valve slowly until you hear water entering the
system.
- Close the lling valve when the pressure is between 1 and
1.5 bar.
- Remove the lling loop from the connections.

While the electrical supply and the fuel supply remain active,
the boiler is protected by the systems:
- heating anti-freeze: this function is activated if the temperature
measured by the flow sensor drops below 5°C. A heat request is generated in this phase with the ignition of the burner at minimum output, which is maintained until the outlet water temperature reaches 35° C;
- domestic hot water anti-freeze: this function is activated if
the temperature measured by the domestic hot water probe drops below 5°C. A heat request is generated in this phase with the ignition of the burner at minimum output, which is maintained until the outlet water temperature reaches 55° C.

INSTALLATION AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
1 INTRODUCTION
All installers are asked to follow the Benchmark Scheme by adhering to the Code of Practise, which can be obtained from www.centralheating.co.uk. The VISION PLUS is comprised of a 7-model range of high
efciency appliances, with outputs ranging from 20kW to 40kW.
These appliances – by design – incorporate electronic ignition, circulating pump, expansion vessel, safety valve, pressure transducer and automatic by-pass. The VISION PLUS range is produced as room sealed, category II2H3P appliances, suitable for internal wall mounting applica-
tions only. Each appliance is provided with a fan powered ue
outlet with an annular co-axial combustion air intake that can be rotated – horizontally – through 360 degrees for various horizontal or vertical applications. The VISION PLUS is approved for use with C13 & C33 type
ue applications.
These appliances are designed for use with a sealed system only; consequently they are not intended for use on open vented systems. This booklet is an integral part of the appliance. It is therefore necessary to ensure that the booklet is handed to the person responsible for the property in which the appliance is located/ installed. A replacement copy can be obtained from Vokèra customer services.
VISION PLUS boiler complies with basic requirements of the
following Directives:
- Regulation (EU) 2016/426;
- Yield directive: Article 7(2) and Annex III of directive 92/42/
EEC;
- Electromagnetic compatibility directive 2014/30/EU;
- Low-voltage directive 2014/35/EU;

2 DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND OPERATING SEQUENCE
2.1 PRINCIPLE COMPONENTS
• A fully integrated electronic control board featuring electronic temperature control, anti-cycle control, pump over-run, self­diagnostic fault indicator, full air/gas modulation
• Aluminium heat exchanger
• Electronic ignition with ame supervision
• Integral high-head pump
• Fan
• Expansion vessel
• Water pressure transducer
• Flue sensor
• Safety valve
2.2 MODE OF OPERATION (AT REST)
When the appliance is at rest and there are no requests for
heating or hot water, the following functions are active:
• frost-protection system: the frost-protection system protects
the appliance against the risk of frost damage both for CH and DHW. For CH line, if the main temperature falls to 5°C, the appliance will function on minimum power until the tem­perature on main reaches 35°C.
Moreover if the DHW temperature falls to 5°C, the appliance
will function on minimum power until the temperature on main reaches 55°C.
• anti-block function: the anti-block function enables the pump
and diverter valve actuator to be energised for short periods, when the appliance has been inactive for more than 24-hours.
2.3 MODE OF OPERATION (HEATING)
When there is a request for heat via the time clock and/or any external control, the pump and fan are started, the fan speed will modulate until the correct signal voltage is received at the control PCB. At this point an ignition sequence is enabled.
Ignition is sensed by the electronic circuit to ensure ame stability
at the burner. Once successful ignition has been achieved, the electronic circuitry increases the gas rate to 75% for a period of 15 minutes.
Top AAV
High limit
thermostat
Thereafter, the boiler’s output will either be increase to maximum or modulate to suit the set requirement. When the appliance reaches the desired temperature the burner will shut down and the boiler will perform a three-minute anti-cycle (timer delay).
When the request for heat has been satised the appliance
pump and fan may continue to operate to dissipate any residual heat within the appliance.
2.4 MODE OF OPERATION (HOT WATER)
When there is a request for DHW via a hot water outlet or tap, the pump and fan are started, the fan speed will modulate until the correct signal voltage is received at the control PCB. At this point an ignition sequence is enabled. Ignition is sensed by the electronic circuit to ensure ame stabil­ity at the burner. Once successful ignition has been achieved, the electronic circuitry increases the gas rate to maximum or will modulate output to stabilise the temperature. In the event of the appliance exceeding the desired temperature (set point) the burner will shut down until the temperature drops.
When the request for DHW has been satised the appliance
pump and fan may continue to operate to dissipate any residual heat within the appliance.
2.5 SAFETY DEVICES
When the appliance is in use, safe operation is ensured by:
• a water pressure transducer that monitors system water pres­sure and will de-activate the pump, fan, and burner should the system water pressure drop below the rated tolerance;
• fan speed sensor to ensure safe operation of the burner;
• a high limit thermostat that over-rides the temperature control circuit to prevent or interrupt the operation of the burner;
• ame sensor that will shut down the burner when no ame
signal is detected;
• ue sensor;
• a safety valve which releases excess pressure from the primary circuit.

3 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS (UK)
This appliance must be installed by a competent person in ac­cordance with the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations.
3.1 RELATED DOCUMENTS
The installation of this boiler must be in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations, the local building regulations, the current I.E.E. wiring regulations, the bylaws of the local water authority, the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulation and Building Stand­ards (Northern Ireland) Regulations. It should be in accordance also with any relevant requirements of the local authority and the relevant recommendations of the following British Standard Codes of Practice.
ATTENTION
The use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) such as but not limited to gloves, mask, safety glasses, etc. is strongly recommended whenever carrying out the installation, repair, or maintenance of this appliance – please pay particular at-
tention to:
• Sharp edges that may be encountered when:- handling or
lifting the appliance, removing parts, etc. during installation and maintenance
• Airborne particles that may be released and/or disturbed when cleaning or removing components during maintenance
• Water treatment chemicals that could have been added to the system water may spill from the appliance and or com­ponents during maintenance
Please refer to an appropriate Health and Safety document such as HSE L23 (UK) or S.I. 299 (Ireland), for more detailed advice on safe working practices and procedures.
If the gas supply serves more than one appliance, it must be ensured that an adequate supply is maintained to each appli­ance when they are in use at the same time.
NOTE
It is recognised that ‘pressure loss’ through the gas cock and gas valve may result in a pressure drop of approximately 2mbar between the gas meter and gas valve inlet test point; this will not impair the performance of the appliance, provided that a dynamic pressure of 18mbar is available at the appliance inlet.
3.4 FLUE SYSTEM
The terminal should be located where the dispersal of combustion products is not impeded and with due regard for the damage and discoloration that may occur to building products located nearby. The terminal must not be located in a place where it is likely to cause a nuisance (see Fig. 9). In cold and/or humid weather, water vapour will condense on leaving the terminal; the effect of such pluming must be considered. If installed less than 2m above a pavement or platform to
which people have access (including balconies or at roofs)
the terminal must be protected by a guard of durable material.
The guard must be tted centrally over the terminal. Refer to
BS 5440 Part 1, when the terminal is 0.5 metres (or less) below plastic guttering or 1 metre (or less) below painted eaves.
3.5 AIR SUPPLY
The following notes are intended for general guidance only.
This appliance is a room-sealed, fan-ued boiler, consequently
it does not require a permanent air vent for combustion air sup­ply. When installed in a cupboard or compartment, ventilation for cooling purposes is also not required.

BS 5546 INSTALLATION OF GAS HOT WATER SUPPLIES FOR DOMESTIC PURPOSES BS 6798 INSTALLATION OF BOILERS OF RATED INPUT NOT EXCEEDING 60kW BS 6891 LOW PRESSURE INSTALLATION PIPES
BS 7074 PART 1
3.2 LOCATION OF APPLIANCE
The appliance may be installed in any room or internal space, although particular attention is drawn to the requirements of the current I.E.E. wiring regulations, and in Scotland, the electrical provisions of the Building Regulations, with respect to the installation of the appliance in a room or internal space containing a bath or shower. When an appliance is installed in a room or internal space containing a bath or shower, the appliance or any control per­taining to it must not be within reach of a person using the bath or shower. The location chosen for the appliance must permit
the provision of a safe and satisfactory ue and termination.
The location must also permit an adequate air supply for com­bustion purposes and an adequate space for servicing and air circulation around the appliance. Where the installation of the appliance will be in an unusual location special procedures may be necessary, BS 6798 gives detailed guidance on this aspect. A compartment used to enclose the appliance must be designed
and constructed specically for this purpose. An existing com­partment/cupboard may be utilised provided that it is modied
to suit. Details of essential features of compartment/cupboard design including airing cupboard installations are given in BS
6798. This appliance is not suitable for external installation.
3.3 GAS SUPPLY
The gas meter – as supplied by the gas supplier – must be checked to ensure that it is of adequate size to deal with the maximum rated input of all the appliances that it serves. Instal-
lation pipes must be tted in accordance with BS 6891.
Pipe work from the meter to the appliance must be of adequate size. Pipes of a smaller size than the appliance gas inlet con­nection must not be used. The installation must be tested for tightness in accordance with BS6891.

APPLICATION, SELECTION, AND INSTALLTION OF EXPANSION VESSELS AND ANCILLARY EQUIPMENT FOR SEALED WATER SYSTEMS
3.6 WATER CIRCULATION
Detailed recommendations are given in BS 5449 Part 1 and BS 6798. The following notes are for general guidance only.
3.6.1 PIPEWORK
It is recommended that copper tubing to BS 2871 Part 1 is used in conjunction with soldered capillary joints. Where possible pipes should have a gradient to ensure air is carried naturally to
air release points and that water ows naturally to drain cocks.
Except where providing useful heat, pipes should be insulated to avoid heat loss and in particular to avoid the possibility of freezing. Particular attention should be paid to pipes passing
through ventilated areas such as under oors, loft space and
void areas.
3.6.2 AUTOMATIC BY-PASS
The appliance has a built-in automatic by-pass, consequently there is no requirement for an external by-pass, however the design of the system should be such that it prevents boiler ‘cycling’.
3.6.3 DRAIN COCKS
These must be located in accessible positions to facilitate draining of the appliance and all water pipes connected to the appliance. The drain cocks must be manufactured in accord­ance with BS 2879.
3.6.4 AIR RELEASE POINTS
These must be positioned at the highest points in the system where air is likely to be trapped. They should be used to expel
trapped air and allow complete lling of the system.
Page 17
3.6.5 EXPANSION VESSEL
The appliance has an integral expansion vessel to accom­modate the increased volume of water when the system is heated. It can accept up to 8 litres of expansion from within
the system, generally this is sufcient, however if the system
has an unusually high water content, it may be necessary to provide additional expansion capacity (see 7.19).
3.6.6 FILLING POINT
A method for initial lling of the system and replacing water lost
during servicing etc. directly from the mains supply, is provided
(see Fig. 25). This method of lling complies with the current
Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and Water Bylaws 2000 (Scotland). If an alternative location is preferred, it should be connected as detailed in Fig. 10.
3.6.7 LOW PRESSURE SEALED SYSTEM
An alternative method of lling the system would be from an independent make-up vessel or tank mounted in a position at least 1 metre above the highest point in the system and at least 5 metres above the boiler (see Fig. 11).
The cold feed from the make-up vessel or tank must be tted
with an approved non-return valve and stopcock for isolation purposes. The feed pipe should be connected to the return pipe as close to the boiler as possible.
3.6.8 FREQUENT FILLING
Frequent lling or venting of the system may be indicative
of a leak. Care should be taken during the installation of the appliance to ensure all aspects of the system are capable of withstanding pressures up to at least 3 bar.
3.7 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
The appliance is supplied for operation on 230V @ 50Hz electri­cal supply; it must be protected with a 3-amp fuse. The method of connection to the mains electricity supply must allow for complete isolation from the supply. The preferred method is by using a double-pole switch fused spur with a contact separation of at least 3,5mm (3° high-voltage category). The switch must only supply the appliance and its corresponding controls, i.e. time clock, room thermostat, etc. Alternatively an un-switched shuttered socket with a fused 3-pin plug both complying with BS 1363 is acceptable.

I.S. 813, Annex K. When an appliance is installed in a room or internal space containing a bath or shower, the appliance or any control pertaining to it must not be within reach of a person using the bath or shower. The location chosen for the appliance must permit the provision
of a safe and satisfactory ue and termination. The location must
also permit an adequate air supply for combustion purposes and an adequate space for servicing and air circulation around the appliance. Where the installation of the appliance will be in an unusual location special procedures may be necessary, refer to I.S. 813 for detailed guidance on this aspect. A compartment used to enclose the appliance must be de­signed and constructed specically for this purpose. An exist­ing compartment/cupboard may be utilised provided that it is
modied to suit.
This appliance is not suitable for external installation.
3.3E GAS SUPPLY
The gas meter – as supplied by the gas supplier – must be checked to ensure that it is of adequate size to deal with the maximum rated input of all the appliances that it serves. Instal-
lation pipes must be tted in accordance with I.S. 813.
Pipe work from the meter to the appliance must be of adequate size. Pipes of a smaller size than the appliance gas inlet con­nection must not be used. The installation must be tested for tightness in accordance with I.S. 813. If the gas supply serves more than one appliance, it must be ensured that an adequate supply is maintained to each appli­ance when they are in use at the same time.
NOTE
It is recognised that ‘pressure loss’ through the gas cock and gas valve may result in a pressure drop of approximately 2mbar between the gas meter and gas valve inlet test point; this will not impair the performance of the appliance, provided that a dynamic pressure of 18mbar is available at the appliance inlet.
3.4E FLUE SYSTEM
The terminal should be located where the dispersal of combustion products is not impeded and with due regard for the damage and discoloration that may occur to building products located nearby. The terminal must not be located in a place where it is likely to cause a nuisance (see I.S. 813). In cold and/or humid weather, water vapour will condense on leaving the terminal; the effect of such pluming must be considered. If installed less than 2m above a pavement or platform to
which people have access (including balconies or at roofs)
the terminal must be protected by a guard of durable material.
The guard must be tted centrally over the terminal. Refer to
I.S. 813, when the terminal is 0.5 metres (or less) below plastic guttering or 1 metre (or less) below painted eaves.
3.5E AIR SUPPLY
The following notes are intended for general guidance only.
This appliance is a room-sealed, fan-ued boiler, consequently it
does not require a permanent air vent for combustion air supply. When installed in a cupboard or compartment, ventilation for cooling purposes is also not required.
3.6E WATER CIRCULATION
Specic recommendations are given in I.S. 813. The following
notes are for general guidance only.
3.6.1E PIPEWORK
It is recommended that copper tubing be used in conjunction with soldered capillary joints. Where possible pipes should have a gradient to ensure air
is carried naturally to air release points and that water ows
naturally to drain cocks. Except where providing useful heat, pipes should be insulated to avoid heat loss and in particular to avoid the possibility of freezing. Particular attention should be paid to pipes passing
through ventilated areas such as under oors, loft space and
void areas.
3.6.2E AUTOMATIC BY-PASS
The appliance has a built-in automatic by-pass, consequently there is no requirement for an external by-pass, however the design of the system should be such that it prevents boiler ‘cycling’.
3.6.3E DRAIN COCKS
These must be located in accessible positions to facilitate draining of the appliance and all water pipes connected to the appliance.
3.6.4E AIR RELEASE POINTS
These must be positioned at the highest points in the system where air is likely to be trapped. They should be used to expel
trapped air and allow complete lling of the system.
3.6.5E EXPANSION VESSEL
The appliance has an integral expansion vessel to accommo­date the increased volume of water when the system is heated.
Refer to the specication table for more detailed information.
3.6.6E FILLING POINT
A method for initial lling of the system and replacing water lost
during servicing etc. directly from the mains supply, is provided (see g. Fig. 25). This method of lling complies with the cur­rent Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and Water Bylaws 2000 (Scotland).
3.6.7E LOW PRESSURE SEALED SYSTEM
An alternative method of lling the system would be from an
independent make-up vessel or tank mounted in a position at least 1 metre above the highest point in the system and at least 5 metres above the boiler (see Fig. 11). The cold feed from the
make-up vessel or tank must be tted with an approved non-
return valve and stopcock for isolation purposes. The feed pipe should be connected to the return pipe as close to the boiler as possible.
3.6.8E FREQUENT FILLING
Frequent lling or venting of the system may be indicative
of a leak. Care should be taken during the installation of the appliance to ensure all aspects of the system are capable of withstanding pressures up to at least 3 bar.
3.7E ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
The appliance is supplied for operation on 230V @ 50Hz electrical supply; it must be protected with a 3-amp fuse. The method of connection to the mains electricity supply must allow for complete isolation from the supply. The preferred method is by using a double-pole switch fuse spur with a contact separation of at least 3,5 mm (3° high-voltage category). The switch must only supply the appliance and its corresponding controls, i.e. time clock, room thermostat, etc.

 select the P4 menu and then P4.09 with the keys , ,
conrming the selection with .
(Note: SCREED HEATING is not available if the boiler is a
status other than OFF).
 To activate the function set the parameter to 1, to deactivate
it set the parameter to 0.
The “SCREED HEATING” function lasts 168 hours (7 days)
during which, in the zones congured as low temperature, a
heating request is simulated with an initial zone outlet of 20°C, then increased in line with the table on the side. Accessing the INFO menu from the main page of the interface it is possible to display the I0.01 value regarding the number of hours that have passed since the activation of the function. Once activated, the function takes priority, if the machine is shut down by disconnecting the power supply, when it is restarted the function picks up from where it was interrupted.
The function can be interrupted before it has nished by
setting the boiler to a status other than OFF or by selecting P4.09 = 0 from the menu P4.
Note: The temperature and increase values can be set to different values only by qualied personnel, only if strictly
necessary. The manufacturer declines all responsibility if the parameters are incorrectly set.

Please refer to 3 - 3E and use the appropriate PPE when carrying out any of the actions or procedures contained within this section.
6.1 GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION
Inspect the entire installation including the gas meter, test for tightness and purge. Refer to BS 6891 (I.S. 813 in ROI) for
specic instruction.
6.2 THE HEATING SYSTEM
The appliance contains components that may become damaged or rendered inoperable by oils and/or debris that are residual from the installation of the system, consequently it is essential
that the system be ushed in accordance with the following
instructions.
6.3 HOW TO FILL THE CONDENSATE TRAP
The rst time you turn the boiler on after a prolonged period of
inactivity or for maintenance work, before using the appliance
you must ll the siphon with water and make sure that the
condensation is evacuated correctly. Fill the condensation collection siphon pouring 1 litre of water into the boiler combustion-analysis outlet with the boiler off,
and check that:
- the safety cut-off device is oating
- water is owing correctly from the discharge pipe out of the
boiler
- the condensate outlet connection line is watertight.
If the condensate outlet circuit (siphon and pipes) is working correctly, the condensation level will not exceed the maximum. Filling the siphon before using the appliance, and the use of a safety cut-off device inside the siphon, prevent exhaust gases from being released into the environment. Repeat during standard and non-standard maintenance work.

8 CHECKS, ADJUSTMENTS AND FAULT FINDING
NOTE
Please refer to 3 - 3E and use the appropriate PPE when carrying out any of the actions or procedures contained within this section.
8.1 CHECKING APPLIANCE OPERATION
When carrying out any repairs or servicing to the appliance, the relevant commissioning procedure must be undertaken to ensure the continued safe operation of the appliance. Particular attention should be made to ensure gas tightness, water tightness and the electrical integrity of the appliance.
8.2 APPLIANCE MODES OF OPERATION
NOTE
There must be sufcient system water pressure (min. 0.5 bar) to ensure the water pressure switch is activated. If there is in-
sufcient system pressure the pump and fan will be prevented
from operating and the low-pressure fault code will be indicated.
8.2.1 MODE SELECTION IN THE OFF/RESET POSITION
When the mode selection is in the OFF/RESET position, the following functions are active.
Active functions:
• frost-protection system
• pump & actuator anti-block.
8.2.2 ON-BOARD FUNCTIONS
CO FUNCTION: the CO function when activated, will allow the
appliance to run at CH maximum, DHW maximum or minimum output whilst a combustion analysis check or a mechanical gas valve calibration is being carried out. Whilst the CO function is active, all other functions are disabled (minimum power operating period, anti-cycle, set-point, etc). Once enabled, the CO function will remain active for a 15-minute period, or until the function is manually deactivated
FROST-PROTECTION: this function is only active when
there are no requests for heating or HW. If the temperature drops below 5°C, the boiler will operate on minimum power until the temperature of the thermistors reaches 35°C for CH and 55°C for DHW. Thereafter the pump & fan will over-run for 30-seconds.
ANTI-CYCLE FUNCTION: the anti-cycle function ensures the
burner remains switched off for at least 3-minutes after the set-point hysterisis (set-point + 5-deg) for CH heat request.
PUMP ANTI-BLOCK FUNCTION: when there has been no
heating or HW request for 24-hours, the anti-block cycle is activated. The pump will be activated for a period of 30-sec­onds.
ACTUATOR ANTI-BLOCK FUNCTION: when there has been
no heating or HW request for 24-hours, the anti-block cycle is activated. The diverter valve actuator will motor briey to the heating position, and then back to the DHW position. The
pump will run briey.
DHW PRE-HEAT FUNCTION: when the DHW pre-heat func-
tion is enabled, the appliance will light periodically to maintain the temperature of the DHW heat exchanger. When the DHW thermistor and the primary thermistor fall below 35°C
and 55°C respectively, the boiler will re on minimum +25%
power until the primary thermistor exceeds 55°C. Thereafter the pump will over-run for a period of 30-seconds.
8.2.3 HEATING MODE
With the mode selection in the heating & hot water position and any additional controls (time clock, programmer, room thermostat, etc.) calling for heat, the appliance will operate in the heating mode. The pump and fan will be activated via
the ow temperature sensor. When the fan is sensed to be
operating correctly (tacho signal), the ignition sequence com­mences. Ignition is sensed by the electronic circuit to ensure
ame stability at the burner. Once successful ignition has been
achieved, the electronic circuitry increases the gas rate to 75% for a period of 15 minutes. The speed of the fan and therefore the output of the boiler is
determined by the temperature of the water sensed by the ow
temperature sensor, consequently a high temperature at the
ow sensor results in a lower fan speed.
As the water temperature increases, the temperature sensors
– located on the ow pipe of the boiler – reduce the fan speed
via the electronic circuitry. Depending on the load, either the water temperature will continue to rise until the set point is achieved or the water temperature will fall whereby fan speed will increase relative to the output required. When the boiler has reached the set point (+ hysterisis), the burner will switch off. The built-in anti-cycle device prevents the burner from re­lighting for approximately 3-minutes. When the temperature
of the ow sensor falls below the set point (- hysterisis), the
burner will re-light.
NOTE
If the spark/sensing electrode does not sense ignition the appli­ance will re-attempt ignition a further 4-times then go to lockout. When the set-point has been reached (the position of the heating temperature selector) as measured at the primary thermistor, the appliance will begin the modulation phase whereby the fan and gas valve will continuously modulate to maintain the set-point. If the temperature continues to rise and exceeds the set-point by 5°C (hysterisis), the burner will shut down. A new ignition sequence will be enabled when the 3- minute anti-cycle has been performed and the temperature at the primary thermistor has dropped 5°C (hysterisis) below the set-point.
8.2.4 DHW MODE
With the selector switch in either the hot water only or heating & hot water position, the appliance will operate in the hot water
mode whenever a DHW outlet is opened. A ow rate exceeding 2-litres per minute will activate the DHW ow switch whereupon the pump and fan will be activated via the ow temperature
sensor. When the fan is sensed to be operating correctly (tacho signal), the ignition sequence commences. Ignition is sensed
by the electronic circuitry to ensure ame stability at the burner.
Once successful ignition has been achieved, the electronic circuit allows the gas rate to achieve the modulation value.
NOTE
When the request for heating and/or hot water has been satis-
ed, the appliance pump and fan may continue to circulate to
dissipate any residual heat within the appliance.
ATTENTION Gas type and appliance output must be set according to the
specic appliance specication. Vokèra accepts no responsi­bility if the gas type is not correctly adjusted according to the
respective appliance specication as detailed on the appliance
data badge.
8.3 CHECKING THE CO2 AND ADJUSTING THE GAS VALVE
THE GAS VALVE MUST BE SET-UP OR ADJUSTED WITH THE AID OF A PROPERLY CALIBRATED FLUE GAS ANALYSER. Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply and remove the appliance casing as described in 4.5.
Set the ue gas analyser to read CO2 and insert the probe into the ue analysis test point.
8.3.1 COMBUSTION CHECK
To carry out the combustion analysis, proceed as follows:
 set the boiler to the OFF status by pressing button 1

8.4 CHECKING THE EXPANSION VESSEL
Carry out the component removal procedure as described in
7.4. You must ensure that the boiler is completely drained of water. Using a suitable pressure gauge, remove dust cap on expansion vessel and check the charge pressure. The correct charge pressure should be 1.0 bar ± 0.1 bar. If the charge pressure is less, use a suitable pump to increase the charge.
NOTE
You must ensure the drain valve is in the open position whilst re-charging takes place. Replace the dust cap and carry out the relevant commissioning procedure (section 6).
8.5 EXTERNAL FAULTS
Before carrying out any faultnding or component replacement,
ensure the fault is not attributable to any aspect of the installation.

Page 39
8.6 ELECTRICAL CHECKS
Any electrical checks must be carried out by a suitably quali-
ed person.
8.6.1 EARTH CONTINUITY TEST
Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply, and using a suitable multi-meter carry out a resistance test. Connect test leads between an appliance earth point and the earth wire of the appliance supply cable. The resistance should be less than 1 OHM. If the resistance is greater than 1 OHM check all earth wires and connectors for continuity and integrity.
8.6.2 SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK
Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply, and using a suitable multi-meter, carry out a short circuit test between the Live & Neutral connections at the appliance terminal strip. Repeat above test on the Live & Earth connections at the ap­pliance terminal strip.
NOTE
Should it be found that the fuse has failed but no fault is indi­cated, a detailed continuity check will be required to trace the fault. A visual inspection of components may also assist in locating the fault.
8.6.3 POLARITY CHECK
With the appliance connected to the electrical supply and us­ing a suitable m
connect test leads between the Live & Neutral connections at the appliance terminal strip. The meter should read approximately 230V ac. If so proceed to next stage. If not, see 8.6.4.
• connect test leads between the Live & Earth connections at the appliance terminal strip. The meter should read approximately 230V ac. If so proceed to next stage. If not, see 8.6.4.
• connect test leads between the Neutral & Earth connections at the appliance terminal strip. The meter should read approxi­mately 0 – 15Vac. If so polarity is
ultimeter, carry out the following voltage tests:

8.6.4 REVERSED POLARITY OR SUPPLY FAULT
Repeat the above tests at the appliance isolator, if testing reveals correct polarity and/or supply at the isolator, re-check wiring and connections between the isolator and the appliance. If tests on the isolator also reveal reversed polarity or a supply fault, consult the local electricity supplier for advice.
8.6.5 RESISTANCE TO EARTH CHECK
Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply, and using a suitable multi-meter carry out a resistance test. Connect test leads between the Live & Earth connections at the appliance
terminal strip. If the meter reads other than innity there is a
fault that must be isolated, carry out a detailed continuity check to identify the location of the fault. These series of checks must be carried out before attempting
any faultnding procedures on the appliance. On completion
of any task that required the disconnection and re-connection of any electrical wiring or component, these checks must be repeated.
8.7 FAULT FINDING
Before attempting any fault nding, the electrical checks as
detailed in 8.6 must be carried out. Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply. Disconnect any external controls from terminal plug (CN5 - Fig.
48), and insert a link-wire between the two wires at the ‘TA’ connections.
NOTE
Restore the electrical supply to the boiler and turn the selector switch to the on position. The boiler should now function as described in section 8. Should the boiler fail to respond, the internal fuses and connectors should be checked to ensure integrity and continuity.
APPLIANCE STATUS AND FAULT CODES
When the boiler detects a temporary fault condition, the appro-
priate code is shown. If/when the fault is nal a fault code will
be displayed. See “8.13 Lights and faults”.
8.9 ADJUSTMENTS
The boiler has already been adjusted by the manufacturer, if, however, adjustments have to be made again, for example after extraordinary maintenance, after the gas valve has been replaced or after a gas conversion from natural gas to LPG, or vice versa, follow the procedures described in following.
The maximum and minimum power settings, maximum he­ating and slow ignition must be performed strictly in the se-
quence indicated and only by qualied personnel:

value, referring to the following graphs.
40
put the value on the self-adhesive label on the back cover of this manual. For subsequent controls and adjustments, refer to the set value.
b
The calibration does not entail the ignition of the boiler.
Thermoregulation only works with the outdoor temperature sensor connected and active only for the HEATING function. If P4.18 = 0 or outdoor temperature probe disconnected the
boiler operates at a xed point. The temperature measured
by the outdoor temperature sensor is displayed in “8.15 INFO menu” under I0.09. The thermoregulation algorithm will not directly use the outdoor temperature, but rather a calculated outdoor temperature that takes into account the building’s
insulation: in buildings that are well insulated, the outdoor
temperature variations will have less impact than those that are poorly insulated by comparison.
REQUEST FROM OT CHRONOTHERMOSTAT
In this case the delivery setpoint is calculated by the chronothermostat according to the outdoor temperature value and the difference between the ambient temperature and the desired ambient temperature.
REQUEST FROM ROOM THERMOSTAT
In this case the delivery setpoint is calculated by the adjustment board according to the outdoor temperature value so as to obtain an estimated outdoor temperature of 20° (reference ambient temperature). There are 2 parameters that compete to calculate the output
setpoint:
 slope of the compensation curve (KT)  offset on the reference ambient temperature.

The thermoregulation curve for heating maintains a theoretical temperature of 20°C indoors, when the outdoor temperature is between +20°C and -20°C. The choice of the curve depends on the minimum outdoor temperature envisaged (and therefore on the geographical location), and on the delivery temperature envisaged (and therefore on the type of system). It is carefully calculated by the installer on the basis of the
following formula:
KT = T. outlet envisaged - Tshift 20- min. design external T
Tshift = 30°C standard system
25°C oor installations
If the calculation produces an intermediate value between two curves, you are advised to choose the thermoregulation curve nearest the value obtained.
Example:
if the value obtained from the calculation is 1.3, this is between curve 1 and curve 1.5. Choose the nearest curve, i.e. 1.5.
The settable KT values are as follows:
standard system: 1.0-3.0 oor system 0.2-0.8.
Through the interface it is possible to access the menu P4 and the parameter P4.19 to set the pre-selected thermoregulation

In this case, when the CONTACT is CLOSED, the heat
request is made by the ow sensor, on the basis of the outdoor
temperature, to obtain a nominal ambient temperature on DAY level (20°C). The opening of the contact does not produce a switch-off, but a reduction (parallel translation) of the climatic curve on NIGHT level (16°C). Also in this case, the user can indirectly modify the value of the HEATING setpoint inserting once again an offset on the reference DAY temperature (20°C) rather than NIGHT (16°C) that can vary within the range [-5 - +5].

9 WIRING DIAGRAMS
NOTE
Please refer to 3 - 3E and use the appropriate PPE when carrying out any of the actions or procedures contained within this section.
9.1 EXTERNAL WIRING
The appliance comes with a factory tted (TA) link to allow
basic operation of the boiler via the mode selector switch. If external controls are to be added to the system, they must be connected to the appliance as shown in the following diagrams. For advice on controls that are not featured in this book, please contact Vokèra technical on 0844 391 0999.
9.1.1 EXTERNAL WIRING LIMITATIONS
Low voltage and High voltage cables must be run separately.
Any external wiring must remain within the limits as detailed:
room thermostat = 30-metres
9.1.2 OUTSIDE SENSOR
The outside sensor can be connected via a controls interface which enables a connection to be made directly on the PCB at plug CN6 (see Fig. 48).
9.2 OTHER DEVICES
Contact the controls manufacturer and/or Vokèra technical
department should you require more specic information on the
suitability of a particular control. Further guidance on the recom­mended practice for the installation of external controls, can be
found in CHeSS – HC5/HC6 (www.energyefciency.gov.uk).
CN5
Fig. 47
IMPORTANT
• The boiler must always be supplied with a permanent 230V electrical supply.
• The room thermostat connection is low voltage (24 Vdc).
• Do not connect any controls or auxiliary equipment to the low-voltage terminal strip, other than that approved/supplied by Vokèra Ltd.
9.3 OTBUS CONNECTION
When an OTBus remote control is connected to the system, the boiler display shows the following screen:
In particular on the boiler display:
 it is no longer possible to set the boiler OFF/WINTER/
SUMMER status (it is set by the OTBus remote control)
 it is no longer possible to set the domestic hot water
setpoint (it is set by the OTBus remote control)
 the combination of the A+B keys remains active for the
setting of the DOMESTIC HOT WATER COMFORT function
 the domestic hot water setpoint is displayed in the INFO
menu
 the heating setpoint set on the boiler display is used only if
there are heat requests from the TA and the OTBus remote
control does not have a request if the parameter:
 P3.11 = 1
or
 P3.11 = 0 and the jumper on 1-2pin of X 21 is closed
 to activate the COMBUSTION CHECK function with an
OTBus remote control connected, you must temporarily disable the connection by setting the parameter P8.03 = 0. Remember to reset this parameter once the function has nished.
We can see that it is not possible, with the OTBus remote control connected, to change the values of the parameter P4.12 and P4.23 from 0 to 1.

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 the maximum flue lengths have not been exceeded and all guidance has been followed (e.g. Technical Bulletin 008). The flue gas analyser should be of the correct type, as specified by BS 7967. Before 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
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 Vokera technical help line. If any such adjustment is recommended and further checking of the boiler is required, the 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 Vokera technical help line and must be followed.

Benchmark Commissioning &
Warranty Validation Service Record
It is a requirement that the boiler is installed and commissioned to the manufacturers’
To instigate the boiler warranty the boiler needs to be registered with the manufacturer within one month of the installation. The warranty rests with the end-user (consumer), and they should be made aware it is ultimately their responsibility to register with the manufacturer, within the allotted time period.
It is essential that the boiler is serviced in line with the manufacturers’ recommendations, at least annually. This must be carried out by a competent Gas Safe registered engineer. The service details should be recorded on the Benchmark Service and Interim Boiler Work Record and left with the householder. Failure to comply with the manufacturers’ servicing instructions and requirements will invalidate the warranty.
www.hhic.co.uk
This Commissioning Checklist is to be completed in full by the competent person who commissioned the boiler as a means of demonstrating compliance with the appropriate Building Regulations and then handed to the customer to keep for future reference.
Failure to install and commission according to the manufacturers’ instructions and complete this Benchmark Commissioning Checklist will invalidate the warranty. This does not affect the customer’s statutory rights.

Vokèra Warranty Terms and Conditions
Vokèra Ltd offer customers the comfort of a parts and labour warranty repair service subject to the following terms and conditions.
Vokèra Ltd only obligation under the guarantee shall be to repair or replace the faulty appliance at Vokèra Ltd discretion. This will be carried out where a fault arises from defects within the appliance, caused by either material or workmanship of the manufacturer.
1. The boiler must have been installed and commissioned within 12 months of manufacture by a registered Gas Safe (RGII ROI) installer in accordance with the guidelines in the installation and servicing booklet provided with the boiler.
2. This guarantee does not protect malfunction or damage arising from incorrect installation, commissioning or maintenance procedures, as laid out in the installation handbook, inefficient flue system, poor or incorrect electricity, wrong gas supply or pressure, tampering by inexperienced persons and any other cause not directly due to manufacture.
3. Vokèra Ltd cannot accept responsibility for any costs arising from repair or maintenance carried out by any third party.
4. The “Benchmark” commissioning sheet must be completed by the installer and left with the boiler for reference purpose.
5. The warranty will commence from the date of installation. Without proof of purchase ie an invoice or completed “Benchmark” commissioning sheet, the warranty will commence from the date of manufacture as detailed on the appliance data plate.
6. To qualify for the full term of warranty, the boiler must be serviced once annually by a Gas Safe Registered Engineer (RGII ROI). Proof of annual service in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions must be provided (e.g. Benchmark Service Record). If this condition is not met the period of warranty will extend to only 12 months from date of installation.
By registering your appliance, you will be helping us provide you with the best after sales service in the unlikely event that your boiler requires attention during the guarantee period.

We will arrange for an engineer or appointed agent, to inspect and repair, or where in our sole opinion repair is not economic, arrange to replace the boiler.
7. Health & Safety:
a. Engineers will only attend to boiler products where it is considered by the engineer that the installation does not
pose a risk to health and safety.
b. A permanently fixed access ladder must service installations in lofts or attics. Adequate lighting and permanently
fixed flooring must also be available.
c. Cupboard installations must provide minimum working clearances as detailed in the installation instructions.
Vokèra will not accept responsibility for the removal of cupboards, kitchen units or trims in order to gain access for repairs.
8. Warranty does not apply:
a. If the boiler is removed from its place of installation without our prior consent. b. To any defect, damage or breakdown caused by inadequate servicing of the boiler or by deliberate action,
accident, misuse or third party interference including modification or an attempted repair which does not fully comply with industry standards.
c. To any defect, damage or breakdown caused by the design, installation and maintenance of the central heating
system.

d. To de-scaling or other work required as a result of hard water scale deposits or from damage caused by
aggressive water or sludge resulting from corrosion. Indications that such work may be required include a noisy boiler, cold spots on radiators, sludge in pipes and poor circulation of the central heating system.
e. If the claim/contact procedure set out in section 6 is not adhered to. f. To any other costs or expenses caused by or arising as a result of the breakdown of a Vokèra Boiler. g. To any costs incurred during delays in fixing reported faults.
9. We reserve the right to a charge a callout fee where:
a. There is no completed “Benchmark” commissioning sheet or equivalent control document present. b. There is incomplete or no service record(s) for each and every year the boiler has been installed. c. A fault cannot be found. d. The breakdown or fault has been caused by an event, which is excluded from the warranty – see section 8. e. Failure to cancel an agreed appointment prior to our engineers visit. f. The boiler is outside the period of warranty or the conditions of the warranty have not been met.
10. If we fit replacement parts or replace a boiler it will not extend the period of the warranty. All replaced parts or boilers will become the property of Vokèra Ltd.
11. The warranty applies only where a Vokèra boiler has been installed in a domestic dwelling in the United Kingdom, Northern Ireland or Republic of Ireland, to provide heat and/or hot water to the central heating system.
12. Vokèra Ltd warranty is offered in addition to the rights provided to a consumer by law. Details of these rights can be obtained from a Trading Standards Authority or a Citizen Advice Bureaux.
