STARTING THE BOILER
• Check that the system is filled with water
• Purge the system
• An automatic air vent is required on the flow from the boiler
• Power the boiler
• Switch the boiler on
• Set the two regulation stages
• If the boiler is powered without any water, it will cause the immersion heaters or
sensors to fail (no warranty)

First Start: 3 minutes confirmation
A. Press the (2) key SET1 for 5 seconds, the (6) light shine
B. Adjust the settings with (3) and (4) keys
C. Validate by pressing the (2) key set1, the indicator (1) is flashing the new
stage 1 setting is stored, the (6) light switched off (after a few seconds the
real temperature is shown on the display)
D. Press the (2) key SET 2, for the second stage for 5 seconds: the (6) light
shine
E. Adjust the settings with (3) and (4) keys
F. Validate by pressing the (2) key SET 2, the (1) indicator is flashing, the
new stage 2 setting is stored, the (6) light switched off (after a few
seconds the real temperature is shown on the display)
Alarm Signal
Alarm light (7) on the (1) display shows:
• “000” Sensor default
• “HA” High temperature limit stat alarm
• “LA” Low temperature limit stat alarm

INSTALLATION
The electric boiler “compacte” should be installed in a louvered plantroom in order to
ensure an ambient temperature below 30ºC and relative humidity between 30 and 80%.
The boiler should not be used in a corrosive atmosphere or in an external position.
Adequate access should be left around the boiler in order to carry out maintenance.
The following safety devices are obligatory:
• Safety valve (4 Bars maximum)
• An automatic air vent on the boiler flow
• A blow down valve
Electrical wiring
The electric boiler “compacte” should be connected to 415V without neutral
The circuit breaker and the cables section should be chosen according to British
standards.
Class 1 material IP21 / IK08
If the boiler is powered without any water, it will generate the thermocouple failure (no
warrantee)
Transport and storage
The unit should be transported and stored in the original package until it reached the
installation point.
Ambiant temperature below 80ºC
Relative humidity between 30 and 80%

12
SERVICING
Loss of water velocity through the boiler can lead to temperature rise
• Consider a sediment vessel on the return to capture sediment deposit
• Blocking immersion heaters irrigation can destroy them
NOTE : The immersion heaters can be destroyed by blockage of the water flow
It is essential that a periodical cleaning is carried out on the main heat exchanger and the
sensors. The water also needs to be clean without any antifreeze or scale remover product
Removal of sludge and sediment reduce corrosion risks
On first start:
Check the electrical operation
Check each terminal to avoid any contact resistance or temperature rise
Activate the safety valve manually
Monthly servicing
Check
 The automatic air vent
 The safety valve
Biannual servicing
Check each terminal to avoid any contact resistance or temperature rise

THE COMMISSIONING OF THE ATLANTIC COMPACTE
All Atlantic boilers and water heaters are thoroughly tested for mechanical, electrical and
combustion performance at the factory
The prime object of the site commissioning of the boiler(s) is, subject to installed
conditions, to match the optimum combustion performance results reached at the factory
and to ensure the boiler(s) is/are installed according to the conditions of guarantee.
The following check list should be satisfied before the commissioning takes place. To
arrange the commissioning Atlantic should be given a minimum of ten days notice of the
date and time required.

Definitions:
The effective actions stipulated in this guarantee are subject to the purchaser complying
completely with the following:
1) The boilers are installed according to the recommendations of this technical
booklet, the recommended codes of practice of the C.I.B.S.E and the B.S.I., and
