components with Worcester equipment within the system.
Heat Exchanger
The unit contains copper-brazed stainless steel heat exchangers.
Please ensure the system complies with the requirements in
BS EN 12502 Part 1 and 2 to avoid any damage caused by corrosion.
Danger of burns and scalds
▶ Surfaces of individual components, connections and leaking water
can be very hot and cause severe burns and scalds.
▶ Do not touch hot surfaces.
▶ Caution should be taken not to touch any leaking water or drained
system water unless the temperature is known and safe.
Leakage
If leaks are observed:
▶ Immediately close all isolation valves.
▶ Ensure all leaks are repaired by a suitably qualified professional.
Instructing the customer
When handing over, instruct the user how to operate the heating system
and inform them about its operating conditions.
▶ Explain how to operate the heating system and draw the user's
attention to any safety-relevant action.
▶ Explain that modifications and repairs must only be carried out by an
authorised contractor.
▶ Hand customers the appliance documentation for safekeeping.
CAUTION: The district heating side of the appliance can
be operated with high pressure and high temperature
systems.

System description
If a summer by-pass valve [9] is fitted; in stand-by mode, the district
supply water flows from the district heating main, via the thermostatic
by-pass valve, therefore ensuring that hot water at 45 °C - 50 °C is
immediately available at the heat interface unit. This ensures a fast
warm-up of hot water at the tap, often referred to as keep hot function.
The above function is also available on a Sense II without the need for a
by-pass valve [9]. In this case, the domestic hot water control valve [16]
modulates to maintain 0 °C -60 °C at the primary water side of the heat
interface unit, depending on the temperature set for the by-pass
function in the controller settings menu.
The electronic control unit [1] provides fully modulated heating and hot
water control between maximum and minimum heat output. There are
two LEDs located on the top of the control unit [1] (visible through two
viewing holes in the top of the case). These indicate operating modes
and fault conditions.
If a hot water tap is opened, the flow turbine [13] is activated, the
central heating control valve [4] remains closed and the domestic hot
water control valve [16] modulates, allowing district supply water to
flow through the domestic hot water heat exchanger [18] to maintain
the pre-set hot water outlet temperature, which is measured using aNTC
sensor[15].
A domestic hot water safety shut-off valve [12] is provided in order to
interrupt the hot water flow to the tap in the event of excessive hot water
temperatures due to a failure condition. The domestic hot water outlet
temperature is adjustable between 30 °C - 60 °C on the heat interface
unit control unit [1].
During a central heating demand, the domestic hot water control valve
[16] remains closed and the central heating control valve [4]
modulates, allowing district water to flow through the central heating
heat exchanger [3] to maintain the pre-set central heating flow
temperature which is measured using a NTC sensor [6]. A low energy
self regulating pump [8] is used to provide water circulation through the
central heating circuit. The central heating flow temperature is
adjustable between 30 °C - 80 °C on the heat interface unit control [1].
The district heating return temperature is measured using a NTC sensor
[2].The control unit [1] will automatically modulate the central heating
delivery to ensure low return temperatures back to the district network.
The district return temperature will be kept below the central heating
flow temperature. This function prevents the HIU working in case the
district flow and return connections are reversed.
The default district heating return temperature limit is 50 °C, this can
only be adjusted with a Sense II.
If a Sense II is not used as a permanent device within the customers
property for controlling the system, it is possible to connect a Sense II to
the HIU control unit during commissioning only, in order to a set the
maximum allowable return temperature.
The heat interface unit can operate up to a supply differential pressure of
80kPa (800mbar). For supply differential pressures above 80kPa
(800mbar), a differential pressure control valve [5] should be fitted.
This provides a controlled differential pressure of 30kPa (300 mbar)
across the heat interface unit as the supply differential pressure varies
up to a maximum of 400kPa (4000mbar), the Worcester KE Plus, E Plus
and E HIU’s incorporate a DPCV as standard.
Electronic keep hot function
▶ This function will allow a small amount of district
water to flow through the heat meter.

Regulations
6 720 808 928 (2017/06) 17
3Regulations
3.1 General
The special rules must be followed for buildings where the appliance is
installed.
The installation and maintenance of the unit must be performed by a
qualified person in accordance with regulations and rules of the local
area where installation is to take place.
3.2 Standards and Guidelines
When installing and operating, please refer to country-specific
regulations and standards, note in particular:
▶ The local standards and regulations on the installation conditions.
▶ The provision for the electrical connection to the power supply.
▶ The standards and regulations relating to the safety equipment of the
water heating system.
▶ The standards and regulations relating to the connection of drinking
water.
3.3 Inspection and maintenance
The heating system should be inspected regularly for the following
reasons:
• To achieve and maintain a high efficiency.
• To ensure operational safety.
The recommendation from BSRIA BG62/2015 is a maintenance check
every 3 years should be sufficient.
4 Pre-installation requirements
4.1 General
4.2 System preparation
Water system and pipe-work
• Any plastic pipe-work used on the central heating system must have
a polymeric oxygen barrier coating and at least 1000mm length of
copper or steel pipe connected to the appliance.
• Plastic pipe-work used for under-floor heating must be correctly
controlled and must not exceed the under-floor manufacturers’
specifications.
– With a single under-floor heating zone this may be able to be
controlled by the HIU provided the under-floor heating design
does not exceed the hydraulic capacity of the HIU internal
circulating pump, refer to section 6.6, Central heating circulation
pump.
• The district circuit is completely separated from the central heating
circuit by the use of a plate heat exchanger. However, in order to
protect the under-floor circuit in the event of a failure condition, a
limiter thermostat must be fitted onto the flow pipe to the under-floor
circuit and wired into the control unit (figure 6). This switches off
the central heating pump in the event of an over temperature
condition.
• A single under-floor heating circuit can be controlled without the
need for an external mixing valve.
Secondary circuit/connections/valves
• All system connections, taps and mixing valves must be capable of
sustaining a pressure of 3 bar.
• Radiator valves should conform to local regulations.
• A thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) must be fitted to radiators in all
rooms except the room with the room thermostat. This must be fitted
with lock-shield valves and left open.
• Drain cocks are required at all the lowest points on the system.
• Air vents are required at all high points on the system.
Observe all rules, regulation, standard and guidelines
applicable to the installation and operation of the
appliance in your country.
NOTICE: Risk of system damage!
Damage to the system caused by a lack of, or insufficient
cleaning and servicing.
▶ Ensure that the heating system is inspected regularly
by an authorised heating engineer.
▶ Carry out any repairs immediately to avoid any
damage to the system.
NOTICE: Differential pressures above 80kPa
(800mbar) when no internal DPCV is fitted.
High differential pressure could affect the performance
of some components in the unit.
▶ Fit a differential pressure control valve to protect the
unit.
▶ The maximum allowable supply differential pressure
when the internal differential pressure control valve
is fitted is 400kPa (4000mbar).
It is recommended to insulate all servicepipe work to the
heat interface unit in order to reduce heat losses and
improve system efficiency.
The switching point of the limiter thermostat, and if
fitted a thermostatic blending valve must be set at the
temperature set point + 10K for the under-floor heating
circuit.
The minimum flow temperature of the appliance is 30 °C.
NOTICE: Under-floor heating circuits.
Damage caused by excessive flow temperature.
▶ Ensure the flow temperature does not exceed the
requirements of the under-floor heating circuit
manufacturer.

4.3 Domestic water supply
Use in hard water areas
Normally there is no need for watertreatment to prevent scale formation
as the maximum temperature of the DHW heat exchanger is limited by
the electronic control.
In areas where temporary water hardness exceeds 200 ppm,
consideration may need to be given to the fitting of a scale prevention
device. In such circumstances, the advice of the local water authority
should be sought.
Showers/bidets:
• Ensure that the shower is suitable for use with mains water pressure.
• If a shower head can be immersed in water or comes closer than
25mm from the top edge of a bath or shower tray spill over level then
an anti-siphon device must be fitted to the shower hose.
• Bidets with direct hot and cold mains water can be used (with the
approval of the local water authority) and must be the over rim
flushing type with shrouded outlets to prevent the fitting of hand held
sprays.
Water mains pressure
• Minimum inlet pressure to achieve nominal DHW flow rate
– 58.6kW units - 2.0 bar
– 39.1kW units - 1.5 bar
• Maximum mains fed water pressure 10 bar.
– If necessary fit a pressure reducing valve.
• Where the mains water supply has a non-return, back flow
prevention valve fitted, a mini expansionvessel should be connected
to the mains water inlet pipe between the non-return valve and the
appliance.
4.4 Pressure relief pipe work
Refer to figure 9
• The pressure relief drain pipe [1] and [3] from the appliance should
be at least 15mm diameter copper pipe and run downwards to a safe
point of discharge, away from any electrical equipment or other
hazard, preferably to an external drain or soak away.
• Pipe [1] should be finished with a partial bend, near the outlet to face
the external wall (as shown) to help prevent freezing.

Internal PRV discharge
The PRV discharge pipe may terminate internally to a safe position such
as a waste pipe or soil pipe, provided that the following conditions are
met:
• The material used must be capable of taking the maximum
temperature provided by the District Heating primary flow.
• The discharge must be directly or indirectly visible and will not
discharge onto the occupants of the premises or onto any electrical
wiring or components. An example of "directly" is a tundish and
"indirectly" an audible indication of pressure loss.
• There is a continual fall towards the discharge point from the HIU.
• Where a tundish is used, a suitable trap is installed to protect against
foul smells entering into the living areas, whilst ensuring no undue
resistance to the discharge. An example would be a washing machine
trap with upstand.
• For the higher district flow temperatures above 85 °C, It is
recommended to use the Hotun Hiflo tundish manufactured by RA
Tech UK. Guidance on this product can be found at http://
hutun.co.uk.
– We would also recommend that the Hotun Shield is used in
conjunction with the Hotun Hiflo on HIU installations. The Hotun
Hiflo tundish can also be used for providing a visual indicator
which will allow connection of a PRV directly into internal waste
pipes or soil stacks.
NOTICE: Risk of damage to household appliances!
Non-return, back flow prevention devices (including
those associated with water meters) fitted to the mains
water supply can cause a pressure build up which could
damage the appliance and other household appliances.
▶ Fit a mini expansion between the non-return valve,
back flow prevention device.
WARNING: Risk of scalding!
Injury if discharge pipe is not routed correctly.
▶ The pressure relief valve is a safety device for the
appliance and if activated may discharge boiling
water or steam through the relief valve drain pipe.
▶ Care should be taken when siting the outlet pipe so
that it does not cause an obstruction or discharge
above a window, entrance or other public access
where it could cause a hazard.
