1.3 GAS CONNECTION APPLIANCE
CATEGORY II2H3B/P.
Our boilers are designed to operate with methane
gas (G20) and LPG. Supply pipes must be the
same as or larger than the 3/4”G boiler tting.
Before connecting the gas line, carefully clean
inside all the fuel feed system pipes to remove
any residue that could impair boiler eciency.
Also make sure the gas corresponds to that for
which the boiler is prepared (see boiler data
name plate). If different, the appliance must
be converted for operation with the other type
of gas (see converting appliance for other gas
types). e dynamic gas supply (methane or
LPG) pressure must also be checked accord-
ing to the type used in the boiler, which must
comply with the technical standards in force, as
insucient levels can reduce generator output
and cause malfunctions. Ensure correct gas cock
connection. e gas supply pipe must be suitably
dimensioned according to current regulations
in order to guarantee correct gas ow rate to the
burner even in conditions of maximum genera-
tor output and to guarantee appliance eciency
(technical specications). e coupling system
must conform to technical standards in force.
Fuel gas quality. e appliance was designed
to operate with combustible gas free of impuri-
ties; otherwise it is advisable to t special lters
upstream of the appliance to restore the purity
of the fuel.
Storage tanks (in case of supply from LPG
depot).
- New LPG storage tanks may contain residual
inert gases (nitrogen) that degrade the mixture
delivered to the appliance casing functioning
anomalies.
- Due to the composition of the LPG mixture,
layering of the mixture components may occur
during the period of storage in the tanks. is
can cause a variation in the heating power of
the mixture delivered to the appliance, with
subsequent change in its performance.
1.4 HYDRAULIC CONNECTION.
Attention: in order not to void the condensa-
tion module warranty, before making the boiler
connections, carefully wash the heating system
(pipes, radiators, etc.) with special pickling or
descaling products to remove any deposits that
could compromise correct boiler operation.
A chemical treatment of the thermal system wa-
ter is required, in compliance with the technical
standards in force, in order to protect the system
and the appliance from deposits (e.g., lime scale),
slurry or other hazardous deposits.
Water connections must be made in a rational
way using the couplings on the boiler template.
e boiler safety valves outlet must be connected
to a draining funnel. Otherwise, the manufactur-
er declines any responsibility in case of ooding
if the drain valve cuts in.
Attention: Immergas declines all liability in the
event of damage caused by the inclusion of auto-
matic lling that is not its own brand.
In order to meet the system requirements es-
tablished by the technical regulation in force in
relation to the pollution of drinking water, we
recommend installing the IMMERGAS anti-
backow kit to be used upstream of the cold
water inlet connection of the boiler. It is also
recommended that the heat transfer uid (e.g.
water + glycol) entered in the primary circuit
of the boiler (heating circuit), complies with the
local regulations in force.
Attention: to preserve the duration and the ef-
ciency features of the appliance, in the presence
of water whose features can lead to the deposit
of limescale, installation of the “polyphosphate
dispenser” kit is recommended.
Condensate drain. To drain the condensate
produced by the appliance, it is necessary to
connect to the drainage system by means of acid
condensate resistant pipes, with an internal Ø of
at least 13 mm. e system connecting the appli-
ance to the drainage system must be carried out
in such a way as to prevent freezing of the liquid
contained in it. Before appliance ignition, ensure
that the condensate can be correctly removed.
Aer rst ignition, check that the drain trap is
lled with condensate (para. 1.20). Also, comply
with national and local regulations on discharg-
ing waste waters.
1.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION.
e “Hercules Condensing ABT 32 3 ErP” boiler
has an IPX5D protection rating for the entire
appliance. Electrical safety of the appliance is
reached only when it is correctly connected to an
ecient earthing system as specied by current
safety standards.
Attention: Immergas S.p.A. declines any respon-
sibility for damage or physical injury caused by
failure to connect the boiler to an ecient earth
system or failure to comply with the reference
standards.
Also ensure that the electrical installation cor-
responds to maximum absorbed power speci-
cations as shown on the boiler data nameplate.
Boilers are supplied complete with an “X” type
power cable without plug.
e power supply cable must be connected to
a 230V ±10% / 50Hz mains supply respecting
L-N polarity and the earth connection on
this network must also feature a multi-pole
circuit breaker of class III overvoltage category.
When replacing the power supply cable, contact
a qualied rm (e.g. the Authorised Aer-Sales
Technical Assistance Service). e power cable
must be laid as shown (Fig. 1-2). In the event of
mains fuse replacement on the P.C.B., use a 3.15A
quick-blow fuse. For the main power supply
to the appliance, never use adapters, multiple
sockets or extension leads.
