1. Instructions
1.1 Introduction
Thank you for choosing the MODENA S HE, a FERROLI wall-mounted boiler the latest generation appliance, featuring
advanced design and cutting-edge technology.
MODENA S HE is a high-efficiency condensing pre-mix appliance for central heating and hot water production, run-
ning on natural gas or LPG, generating extremely low emissions.
The boiler is constructed with a stainless steel heat exchanger providing effective condensation of the water vapour con-
tained in the flue gases, permitting extremely high efficiency.
Inside the boiler there is a premix burner with an integral fan, with a large stainless steel surface.
The boiler is totally room sealed from the installation room: the air needed for combustion is drawn from outside. The
boiler also includes a modulating speed fan, modulating gas valve, pump, expansion vessel, safety valve, flow sensor,
safety and control double temperature sensors, a safety thermostat and a low water pressure switch.
Thanks to the microprocessor control and adjustment system with advanced self-diagnosis, unit operation is for the
most part automatic. The power for heating is automatically governed by the control system.
The display continuously provides information on the unit’s operating status and it is easily possible to obtain additional
information on the sensor temperatures, set-points, etc. or configure them. Any operating problems associated with the
boiler or system is immediately signalled by the display and, if possible, corrected automatically.

2.2 Place of installation
The combustion circuit is sealed with respect to the
place of installation and therefore the unit can be in-
stalled in any room. However, the place of installation
must be sufficiently ventilated to prevent the creation
of dangerous conditions in case of even slight gas
leaks. This safety regulation is provided for by EEC Di-
rective no. 90/396 for all gas units, including those with
a sealed chamber.
In any case, the place of installation must be free of dust,
flammable materials or objects or corrosive gases.
The boiler is arranged for wall mounting and comes
standard with a hanging bracket. A paper template for
marking the drilling points on the wall is provided in the
box. The wall fixing must ensure stable and effective
support for the generator.
AIf the unit is enclosed in a cabinet or mounted
alongside, a space must be provided for re-
moving the casing and for normal mainte-
nance operations. The minimum
measurements to be respected are given in
fig. 9.
fig. 9 - Minimum distances around the boiler
AMin. 2,5 cm
BMin. 10 cm
CMin. 30 cm
DMin. 30 cm (via an openable panel)
2.3 Plumbing connections
Important
The heating capacity of the boiler must be previously established by calculating the building's heat requirement according
to the current regulations. To ensure proper operation and long boiler life, the plumbing system must be adequately sized
and complete with all the necessary accessories, including a room thermostat, a thermostatic radiator valve (TRV), etc.
The system flow and return pipes must have a diameter of at least 22 mm for the first 3 m of length from the unit.
If the system delivery and return pipes follow a path where air pockets could form in certain places, it is advisable to
install vent valves at these points. Also, install type "A" drain cocks at the lowest points in the system to allow complete
emptying.
The temperature drop between the delivery manifold and the return to the boiler should not exceed 20 °C.
A flow rate of at least 6 litres/min through the heat exchanger is required. Bypass installed in the boiler guarantees main-
taining of the required flow rate.
BDo not use the water system pipes to earth electrical appliances.
Before installation, carefully flush all the heating system pipes to remove any residuals or impurities that could affect
proper operation of the unit (as required by BS 7593 Building regs Doc L).
Carry out the connections to the unit as indicated in fig. 32.
BThe safety valve discharge must be connected to a 15 mm diameter copper pipe descending from the boiler
to run off system water in case of overpressure in the heating circuit. Otherwise, the boiler manufacturer
cannot be held liable if the discharge valve operates and floods the room. The discharge must be run
to the outside of the building to prevent the risk of damage or injury caused by discharged hot water in case
of overpressure in the system.
Connections to the boiler are to be made in such a way as to ensure that its internal pipes and fittings are free of stress.
If a non-return valve is installed also on the DHW circuit (if provided for), it is necessary to install a safety valve between
the boiler and circuit (with non-return valve at least 3 metres from the boiler) or an expansion tank for domestic use.

Make up water
Provision must be made for replacing water lost from the sealed system. Reference should be made to BS6798, for
methods of filling and making up sealed systems. There must be no direct connection between the boiler's central heat-
ing system and the mains water supply. The use of mains water to charge and pressurise the system directly, is con-
ditional upon the Local Water Byelaws. Again any such connection must be disconnected after use. Ensure the filling
point is on the return pipe to the boiler.
Attention - is drawn to the Model Water Byelaws.

Water treatment
If treatment of the water is necessary, Ferroli recommends the exclusive use of specific products such as Fernox or
Sentinel to be applied in compliance with the producer's instructions. For more information, please contact:
AIf the boiler is installed in an existing system, it is necessary to remove any unsuitable additives by thoroughly
cleaning the system. Cleaning of all the systems must be carried out in compliance with the provisions of
Standard B.S. 7593.
AIn areas characterised by the presence of hard water, treatment may be necessary to prevent the formation
of encrustations in the boiler.
AMake sure to use the water treatment product in the correct concentration, in compliance with the producer's
instructions.
2.4 Connection to the gas system
If necessary the local Gas supplier should be consulted, at the installation planning stage, in order to establish the avail-
ability of an adequate supply of gas.
An existing service pipe must not be used without prior consultation with the local Gas supplier.
A gas meter can only be connected by the Local Gas supplier, or by a Local Gas suppliers Contractor.
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with BS6891.
Appliance inlet working pressure must be 20mbar MINIMUM, for NG and 37 mbar minimum for LPG.
Do not use pipes of a smaller size than the combination boiler inlet gas connection (22 mm).
BThe complete installation must be tested for gas soundness and purged as described in BS689. All pipework
must be adquately supported. An isolating gas valve is provided and should be fitted on the boiler gas inlet.
Please wait 10 minutes when lighting from cold before checking. Gas pressures should be checked after the
boiler has operated for 10 minutes to reach thermal equilibrium. This appliance has no facility to check the
burner pressure, however if the inlet pressure and the gas rate are correct the boiler should be set correctly,
the gas valve is set and sealed at the factory and should not be adjusted without authorisation from Ferroli
Personnel. A combustion test can be carried out to ensure correct air/gas mix (see page 28 combustion an-
alyser testing).
The isolation kit shown in fig. 10 is supplied as standard.
2.5 Electrical connections
The unit must be installed in conformity with current national and local regulations.
Connection to the electrical grid
BThe unit's electrical safety is only guaranteed when correctly connected to an efficient earthing system exe-
cuted according to current safety standards. Have the efficiency and suitability of the earthing system checked
by professionally qualified personnel. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by failure
to earth the system. Also make sure that the electrical system is adequate for the maximum power absorbed
by the unit, as specified on the boiler dataplate.
The boiler is prewired and provided with a cable and plug for connection to the electricity supply. The connections to
the grid must be made with a permanent connection and equipped with a bipolar switch whose contacts have a minimum
opening of at least 3 mm, interposing fuses of max. 3A between the boiler and the line. It is important to respect the
polarities (LINE: brown wire / NEUTRAL: blue wire / EARTH: yellow-green wire) in making connections to the electrical
supply. During installation or when changing the power cable, the earth wire must be left 2 cm longer than the others.
BThe user must never change the unit's power cable. If the cable gets damaged, switch off the unit and have it
changed solely by professionally qualified personnel. If changing the electric power cable, use solely “HAR
H05 VV-F” 3x0.75 mm2 cable with a maximum outside diameter of 8 mm.

• Positions of condensate drain terminals: if the fume exhaust is provided for at a low level, the potential effect of
the flue gas cloud must be considered. Special flue gas management kits are available by request.
• The flue gas cloud must not be directed towards:
- A frequented approach
- A window or door
- An adjacent property

Connection to multiple flues or single flues with natural draught
To connect the MODENA S HE boiler to a multiple flue or a single flue with natural draught, the flue or chimney must be
expressly designed by professionally qualified technical personnel in conformity with the current standards and regulations.
In particular, flues and chimneys must:
• Be sized according to the method of calculation given in the standard.
• Be tight with respect to the products of combustion, resistant to the fumes and heat and impermeable to condensate.
• Have a circular or square cross-section (some hydraulically equivalent sections are permissible), with a vertical pro-
gression and with no constrictions.
• Have the ducts conveying the hot fumes at a suitable distance or separately from combustible materials.
• Be connected to just one unit per floor, for not more than 6 units (8 if there is a compensation duct or opening).
• Have no mechanical suction devices in the main ducts.
• Be at low pressure, all along their length, in conditions of stationary operation.
• Have at their base a collection chamber for solid materials or condensate, of at least 0.5 m, equipped with an airtight
metal door.
2.7 Condensate drain connection
Installation
The boiler is equipped with an internal air-trap to drain off the condensate.
Fit the inspection coupling Aand the hose B, pushing it on for approximately 3 cm and securing it with a clamp.
Fill the air-trap with approximately 0.5 ltrs of water and connect the hose to the waste system, or soakaway.

Condensate drain
If possible, the condensate should be conveyed inside the internal drainage system or pipe. For that purpose, use a
pipe of at least 22 mm diameter and a trap with flexible connection supplied with the unit to facilitate connection of the
condensate drain pipe.
The pipe must be in glue-joined plastic and not in copper, since the condensate has a pH of 4 (slightly acid).
If the condensate drain pipe cannot be ended on the inside, it is advisable to run it outside as shown in the following
figure.
The pipe sections going to the outside are exposed to the risk of freezing in particularly extreme weather conditions. To
prevent this from occurring, it is advisable to reduce the length of the condensate drain pipes and run them on the inside,
as much as possible, before going to the outside. It may also be necessary to insulate the condensate pipe or apply a
trace heating device to prevent freezing of the condensate.
The pipes outside the building must be in glue-joined plastic with increased diameter of up to 32 or 40 mm with a max-
imum run of 3m for connection to a condensate collection soakaway or external drain.
If using a condensate collection soakaway, it must be as indicated in the figure below, or use a specific system (such
as Mc Alpine SOAK1GR) available from the majority of suppliers of products and accessories for plumbing or heating
systems.

3. Service and maintenance
All adjustment, conversion, startup and maintenance operations described below must only be carried out by Qualified Per-
sonnel (meeting the professional technical requirements prescribed by current regulations).
FERROLI declines any liability for damage and/or injury caused by unqualified and unauthorised persons tampering with
the unit.
3.1 Adjustments
Gas supply conversion
The unit can operate on natural gas or LPG and is factory-set for use with one of these two gases, as clearly shown
onthe packing and on the dataplate. If a gas different from that for which the unit is arranged has to be used, a conver-
sion kit will be required, proceeding as follows (fig. 25):
1. Remove the front panel.
2. Turn the control panel.
3. Unscrew the nut “C” and remove gas pipe “A” from the gas valve.
4. Replace injector “B”, inserted in the gas pipe, with that contained in the conversion kit.
5. Reassemble gas pipe “A” with the clip and check the seal of the connection.
6. Apply the label, contained in the conversion kit, near the dataplate.
7. Refit the front panel.
8. Modify the parameter for the type of gas:
• put the boiler in standby mode
• press the DHW buttons details 1 and 2 - fig. 1 for 10 seconds: the display shows “b01“ flashing.
• press the DHW buttons fig. 1 details 1 and 2 - to set parameter 00 (for use with natural gas) or 01 (for use withLPG ).
• press the DHW buttons details 1 and 2 - fig. 1 for 10 seconds.
• the boiler will return to standby mode
9. Check the working pressure
10. Using a combustion analyser connected to the boiler fume outlet, check that the CO2content in the fumes, withthe
boiler operating at max. and min. power, matches that given in the technical data table for the corresponding type
of gas.
