GENERAL INFORMATION
1 GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 General Safety Information
9 Check that the product is complete, undamaged and as or-
dered as soon as you receive it. Report any discrepancies or
damage to the Rdealer who sold it.
9 This product must be installed by a legally qualied heat-
ing engineer. On completion of the installation, the install-
er must issue the owner with a declaration of conformity
conrming that the installation has been completed to the
highest standards in compliance with the instructions pro-
vided by Rin this instruction manual, and that it con-
forms to all applicable laws and standards.
9 This product must only be used for the purpose for which it
is designed and made, as specied by R. Rdeclines
all responsibility, contractual or other, for damage to prop-
erty or injury to persons or animals caused by improper in-
stallation, adjustment, maintenance or use.
9 The room where the boiler is installed must be proper-
ly ventilated to ensure a sufcient supply of air for correct
combustion.
9 If you notice any water leaks, disconnect the boiler from the
mains electricity supply and shut off the water supply.
9 The boiler must be serviced at least once a year.
9 Periodically check that pressure in the central heating cir-
cuit, when cold, is approximately 1.5 bar and below the
maximum limit specied for the boiler.
9 If the boiler is not going to be used for an extended peri-
od of time, perform the operations described later in this
manual.
9 This manual is an integral part of the equipment and there-
fore must be stored carefully and must ALWAYS accompany
the boiler even if it is sold to another Owner or User or trans-
ferred to another plant. If it is damaged or lost, request an-
other copy from your local Technical Assistance Service R.
1.2 Precautions
The operation of any appliance that uses fuel, electrical power
and water demands that a number of fundamental safety pre-
cautions be respected:
0 Do not allow children or inrm persons to operate the sys-
tem unsupervised.
0 It is forbidden to use electrical devices or equipment, such
as switches, appliances, etc. if there is a smell of gas or un-
burnt products. If so:
−Ventilate the room, opening doors and windows
−Close the fuel shut-off cock.
0 Do not touch the boiler while barefoot or wet.
0 Never clean or service the boiler without rst disconnect-
ing it from the mains electricity supply by turning the mains
power switch and the control panel switch OFF.
0 Do not tamper with or adjust the safety or control devices
without prior authorisation and instructions from the man-
ufacturer.
0 Never pull, disconnect, or twist the electrical cables coming
from the appliance even if it is disconnected from the mains
electricity supply.
0 Do not obstruct or restrict the vents in the room where the
boiler is installed. Adequate ventilation is essential for cor-
rect combustion.
0 Do not expose the boiler to the elements. It is not designed
for use outdoors.
0 It is prohibited to leave inammable substances and con-
tainers in the room where the boiler is installed.
0 Do not dispose of packaging material into the environment,
or leave it within the reach of children, since it can become
a potential hazard. Dispose of packaging material in com-
pliance with applicable legislation.
0 It is forbidden to operate the boiler without water.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1.3 Description of the appliance
The GITRÈ boiler is an oil fuelled hot water boiler capable of low
temperature functioning. GITRÈ versions are designed only for
central heating applications. The GITRÈ B/100 version is equipped
with a 100 litre vitried storage cylinder and can be used for
central heating and domestic hot water production.
The cast iron boiler body features a triple ue pass design and a
horizontal combustion chamber.
The front cover opens fully to facilitate the inspection, mainte-
nance and cleaning of internal parts and to minimise service
time.
The boiler body is covered in high density glass wool insulation
to reduce heat loss.
The boiler is tted with a single stage oil burner.
The GITRÈ boiler's control logic incorporates a total shutdown
function to minimise energy consumption:
−The GITRÈ (heating only) model only starts up if the cen-
tral heating system requests heat (i.e. when the room
thermostat switches the heating on);
−If the GITRÈ B/100 (heating and DHW) model is in "Sum-
mer" mode ("Summer/Winter" selector turned to Sum-
mer position), it only starts up in response to a request for
domestic hot water. If it is in "Winter" mode ("Summer/
Winter" selector turned to Winter position), it starts up
either in response to a request for heat from the central
heating system (i.e. when the room thermostat switches
the heating on) or in response to a request for domestic
hot water. (DHW heat requests are prioritised over central
heating requests.).
1.4 Safety and control devices
GITRÈ boilers incorporate the following safety and control de-
vices:
−A manual reset safety thermostat that forces a safe-
ty shutdown if boiler temperature exceeds the safety
threshold (110°C). The sensor used to monitor this tem-
perature is located on the body of the heat exchanger;
−A minimum temperature thermostat that enables the
central heating pump only if boiler temperature exceeds
the minimum permissible (50°C);
−An electronic burner controller that monitors the correct
functioning of the selected burner program and sends
a lockout signal to the control panel in the event of an
error.
ONLY FOR GITRÈ B/100 MODELS
−A maximum temperature thermostat that shuts down
the burner if boiler temperature reaches or exceeds the
default maximum limit ( 82°C) during the heating of do-
mestic hot water in the storage tank;
−A heat dissipation thermostat that starts up the storage
tank pump to dissipate excess heat in order to keep boil-
er temperature below the safety threshold (90°C).
9 The intervention of a safety device indicates a potentially
dangerous malfunction in the system. Contact the manu-
facturer’s Technical Assistance Service immediately.
9 Safety devices must only be replaced by the manufacturer's
Technical Assistance Service using original spare parts. Refer
to the spare parts catalogue supplied with the boiler.
0 Do not use the boiler if any of its safety devices are faulty.
Always check that the boiler is functioning correctly after repairs
have been made.

1.7.1 Water-side pressure drop
GITRÈ boilers come without a pump. A pump must therefore be provided as part of the installation.
In order to choose a pump of the right size, bear in mind the boiler’s water-side pressure drop, as shown in the gure below.
