1.1 INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDATIONS.
Only professionally qualied heating/plumbing
technicians are authorised to install Immergas
gas appliances.
e “Victrix 50” range boilers can be installed
outdoors or in a suitable room (heating control
unit).
e place of installation of the appliance and
relative Immergas accessories must have suitable
features (technical and structural) such to allow
(always in safety, eciency and easy conditions):
- installation (according to the provisions of
technical legislation and technical regulations);
- maintenance operations (including scheduled,
periodic, routine, special);
- removal (to outdoors in the place for
loading and transporting the appliances
and components) as well as the eventual
replacement of those with appliances and/or
equivalent components.
Attention: these boilers must be used to heat
rooms and the like; they are for heating water
to a temperature lower that boiling point at
atmospheric pressure. erefore, they must be
connected to a heating system that is suitable for
their performance and their power.
Before installing the appliance, ensure that it is
delivered in perfect condition; if in doubt, contact
the supplier immediately.
Packaging materials (staples, nails, plastic bags,
polystyrene foam, etc.) constitute a potential
hazard and must be kept out of the reach of
children.
Keep all flammable objects away from the
appliance (paper, rags, plastic, polystyrene, etc.).
In the event of malfunctions, faults or incorrect
operation, turn the appliance o immediately
and contact a qualified technician (e.g. the
Immergas Technical Aer-Sales Centre, which
has specically trained sta and original spare
parts).
Do not attempt to modify or repair the appliance
alone.
Failure to comply with the above implies personal
responsibility and invalidates the warranty.
• Installation Standards: these boilers have not
been designed to be installed on plinths or
oors (Fig. 1-1), but for wall installation. e
wall surface must be smooth, without any
protrusions or recesses enabling access to the
rear part. Wall mounting of the boiler must
guarantee stable and ecient support for the
boiler. e plugs (standard supply) are to be used
only in conjunction with the mounting brackets
or xing template to x the appliance to the wall;
they only ensure adequate support if inserted
correctly (according to technical standards)
in walls made of solid or semi-hollow brick or
block. In the case of walls made from hollow
brick or block, partitions with limited static
properties, or in any case walls other than
those indicated, a static test must be carried out
to ensure adequate support. e boilers must
be installed in a way to prevent collisions and
tampering.
N.B.: the hex head screws supplied in the blister
pack are to be used exclusively to x the relative
mounting bracket to the wall.
1.2 POSITION OF THE APPLIANCES.
e "Victrix 50" range boilers can be installed:
- outdoors;
- in outdoor environments, also adjoining the
building served, located in uncovered space, as
long a structurally separated and without walls
in common, or situated on the at covering of
the building served, always without walls in
common;
- in buildings also destined for other use or in
places inserted in the volume of the building
served.
ese places must be destined exclusively for
heating plants.
Attention: the installation of appliances powered
with gas with a greater density than 0.8 (L.P.G.)
is only allowed in places out of the ground,
also communicating with places that are on the
ground. In both cases the walkway must not have
hollows or depressions such to create gas pockets
that determine dangerous conditions.
Height of the installation room.
Installation of an individual appliance: the
minimum height of the room must be 2 m.
Installation of several appliances in cascade (2 or
3 Victrix 50): considering the dimensions of the
boiler, of the ue collector (to be installed with
gradient of 3%) and hydraulic collectors, the
minimum height of the room must be 2.30 m.
e above-mentioned heights allow the correct
installation of the appliances.
Position of the appliances in the room.
Individual appliance: the distances between
any external point of the boiler and the vertical
and horizontal walls of the room must allow
accessibility to the regulation, safety and control
elements for routine maintenance.
Several appliances, not connected to each other, but
installed in the same room: the minimum distance
to maintain between several boilers installed
on the same wall must be 200 mm, in order to
allow accessibility to the regulation, safety and
control elements and routine maintenance of all
appliances installed.
Installation in cascade (2 or 3 Victrix 50): see the
indications supplied in par. 1.13.
1.3 AERATION AND VENTILATION OF
THE INSTALLATION ROOMS.
e rooms must have one or more permanent
openings for aeration on external walls. The
openings used for aeration can be protected
using metal grills, meshes and/or rain-proof ns
as long as the net aeration surface is not reduced.
The aeration openings must be realised and
located in a way to prevent the formation
of pockets of gas, independently from the
conformation of the covering.
Aeration for installation in outdoor places. e
minimum free surfaces, in relation to the overall
heat input must not be below:
a) above-ground rooms (S ≥ Q x 10)
S > 510 cm2for No. 1 individual Victrix 50
S > 1,020 cm2for No. 2 Victrix 50 in cascade
S > 1,530 cm2for No. 3 Victrix 50 in cascade
b) basements and underground rooms up to a
height of -5 m from the reference surface (S
≥ Q x 15)
S > 765 cm2for No. 1 individual Victrix 50
S > 1,530 cm2for No. 2 Victrix 50 in cascade
S > 2,290 cm2for No. 3 Victrix 50 in cascade
c) underground rooms at quota between -5 m
and -10 m from the reference surface (S ≥ Q
x 20 with a minimum of 5000 cm2)
S > 5000 cm2for all congurations
In all cases each opening must not have a net
surface area less than 100 cm2.
Attention: in the case of installation of appliances
powered with gas with greater density than 0.8
(L.P.G.) in outdoor places, above-ground, at least
2/3 of the aeration surface must be ush with the
oor, with a minimum height of 0.2 m.
e aeration openings must be at least 2 m for
heating capacities not exceeding 116 kW and
4.5 m for higher heating capacities, cavities,
depressions or openings communicating with
rooms below the walkway surface or draining
ducts.
Aeration for installation in building also
destined for other use or in places inserted in
the volume of the building served. e aeration
surface must not be less than 3000 cm2in the case
of natural gas and must not be less than 5000 cm2
in the case of L.P.G.
