2. INSTALLATION
General instructions
This appliance must only be used for the purposes it has been specifically designed for. This appliance is used to heat water to below-boiling
temperatures at atmospheric pressure, and must be connected to a heating and/or domestic hot water distribution system, according to its
characteristics, performance and heating capacity. All other uses are considered improper.
THE BOILER MUST ONLY BE INSTALLED BY QUALIFIED AND SPECIALIST PERSONNEL, IN COMPLETE COMPLIANCE WITH
ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS REPORTED IN THIS TECHNICAL MANUAL, THE LEGAL STANDARDS IN FORCE, THE PRESCRIP-
TIONS OF ANY NATIONAL AND LOCAL STANDARDS, AND ACCORDING TO THE RULES OF GOOD PRACTICE.
Incorrect installation may cause damage to people, animals and things. The manufacturer will not be held liable in such events.
Place of installation
The room in which the boiler is installed must have ventilation openings to the outside according to the standards in force. If the same room
features a series of burners or exhaust devices that can operate at the same time, the ventilation openings must be large enough for the
simultaneous operation of all the appliances.
The place of installation must be free of flammable objects or materials, corrosive gas, dust or volatile substances that, sucked in by the bur-
ner’s fan, may block the internal tubing of the burner or the combustion head. The environment must be dry and not exposed to rain, snow or
frost.
Positioning the boiler
The minimum spaces shown in the figure must be complied with. Specifically, make sure that after as-
sembling the boiler with the burner on the front door, the latter can be opened without the burner hitting
against the wall or any other boiler. Leave a free space of at least 100mm on the side that the door swings

2.1 Water connections
Make the water connections to the appliance according to the indications shown both next to each fitting and in Figure 2 of this booklet.
The connections must be made in such a way that the pipes are not under stress. The safety valve must be fitted in the central heating circuit,
as close as possible to the boiler, without there being any obstructions or on-off devices between the boiler and the valve.
The appliance is not supplied with an expansion vessel, and therefore such device must be connected by the installer. Please note that in this
regard, the pressure in the system, when cold, must be between 0.5 and 1 bar.
2.2 Connecting the burner
Oil or gas jet burners for pressurised furnaces can be used if their operating characteristics are suitable for the dimensions of the boiler’s
furnace and its over-pressure value. The burner must be chosen following the instructions provided by the manufacturer, according to the field
of operation, fuel consumption and pressure, as well as the length of the combustion chamber.
Fit the burner following the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the device.
2.3 Electrical connections
The boiler should be connected to a single-phase, 230 Volt-50 Hz electrical line, using a permanent connection, installing a double pole switch
with contact openings of at least 3mm, and suitable fuses. Connect the burner and the room thermostat (if featured) as shown in the
wiring diagram in Chap. 4.
The electrical safety of the appliance is ensured only when the appliance is correctly connected to an effective earth system, as
prescribed by the safety standards in force. Have professionally qualified personnel check the efficiency and the rating of the earth
system. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage caused by the appliance not being correctly earthed. In addition, make sure that the
