SKAMET B-80 H User manual

Choose carefully capacity (in liters) of the water boiler. At lowered capacity in liters, the
water can boil and at elevated water does not reach the desired temperature. Before
purchasing the boiler think over the number of consumers and volume of consumption of
hot water. When calculating the engine capacity of the boiler it is necessary to consider
that average per person daily consumption, considering taking a shower is about 30-50
liters of hot water.Aseller or a company representative will help you to choose appropriate
displacement of boiler. For more information please visit our homepage www.skamet.ee.
Dear customer.
You have purchased a quality water boiler, which will delight you for many years. This
installation and operation manual was compiled in order to provide you more information.
Initially, check that delivered to you boiler has not been damaged. At detection of
damages during the shipping, contact the shipping company who delivered water boiler,
or consult with the seller who sold you the boiler.
Functionality
The manufacturer conrms that the boilers meet the requirements of the CE marking, and
their production complies with EN 15332:2007. The boilers are intended to heat water
from the external heat source. Boilers of ferrous metal are not intended as a source of
drinking water. Have also to be considered that the water can be rusty hue in the boilers
of ferrous metal. The manufacturer is not responsible for unauthorized changes made
by user of the boiler, and is not responsible for damages resulting from such actions.
Scheduled maintenance required for normal operation, is also a part of functionality.
General information
In summer time the use of central heating system for heating the water is impractical and
inefcient, since consumption of energy and fuel, and wear of equipment unreasonably
overvalued compared to winter time, when the total volume of heated water is
incomparably larger. Manufactured by us boilers connect to any water heating systems
(stoves, cookers, sauna stoves, etc.)
Standard boilers are volumetric and water heats thro the so-called natural circulation
through water heating exchanger when during the operation of the heater the circulation
of water occurs (hot water rises up and cold presses down). Besides the standard boiler
we also produce the two-system boilers: the two-body or with register (coil).
A pipe connection for connecting a tubular electric heating element (an electric
heater) can be ordered for installation on our boilers. To use an external heat source
for permanent year-round hot water consumption is reasonably and quite economical.
Even when stoking ovens, cookers, etc. the preheated water enters into the boiler and
electric heater switches off and water heating occurs from the heat exchanger. At the
termination of the stoking the water heating comes from an external source of electricity
(an electric heater). All of the boilers are necessary to be earthed. When should I install
an external heat source? The answer is simple: when there is not enough of hot water.
GB A lot of consumers due to summer outages remain without hot water. Also in old houses,
where hot water did not exist at all. For efcient use of hot water boiler the installation of
it is necessary to make as close as possible to the place of consumption. For horizontal
boilers - this distance is not more than 120 cm from the heat source, for vertical boilers
- ranging from 180 cm. Hot water should reach the faucet maximum after four seconds.
Between consumption and boiler in pipes remains hot water, which eventually cools,
so the closer boiler is to the place of consumption of hot water, the less are the losses.
The information about standard boilers
We manufacture boilers both under pressure and open pass type. Sealed boilers that
connect to the system and work under pressure - vertical or horizontal: for horizontal
boilers (Pic. 1) provided brackets (two), can be obtained furthermore, for xing the boiler
to the wall. Brackets are attached to the boiler with the supplied bolts with a strong
tightening and installation on an equable distance, taking into account the center of
gravity. On the sidewise of established boiler is located ½ inch nipple (hot water outlet),
and below ¾ inch nipple (inlet of hot water from the heater) and in the bottom of the boiler
¾ inch nipple (tap of cold water to the heater) and ½ inch nipple (supply of cold water
from the track) . The horizontal boilers can be attached to the wall (connecting pipe in
the right or left position) to the ceiling or with the installation on the oor (as Pic.1).
On the vertical boilers (Fig. 2) mountings are welded to the body. ½ inch nipples at the
bottom (for supply cold water from the track) and on the top (for hot water drainage)
and two ¾ inch nipples on the left or right for connection it to the heater (you can get
information from the seller).
Open pass boiler on legs (Fig. 3). Two ¾ inch sidewise nipples (on the left or on the right)
of the boiler destined for connecting to the heater and one ½ inch nipple located on the
bottom of the boiler destined for water outlet from the boiler. It is possible to order extra
nipples (with male thread) or coupling (female screw).
In boilers of ferrous metal during rst months of operation is possible outlet of brown
water that is caused by poor quality of water or muddy system, which eventually stops. If
the process continues is necessary to install a clearing lter on the cold water. Not worth
to use chemical cleaners for cleaning the boiler.
The constitution of water boiler
The boiler made of high quality sheet metal air pressure 4 bars tested, which corresponds
to 6,5 bar of water. The boiler is targeted at prolonged use under not more than 3,5
bar water pressure in the trunk. At elevated pressure, have to be installed a pressure
regulator. Thickness of metal of ferrous boilers is - 3 mm and stainless steel - 2 mm. The
boiler equipped with two connecting pipes ½“: one for connecting cold water and the
other for hot water outlet and two connecting pipes ¾” for connection to inlet and outlet
of the heat source (see Pic 1, 2 and 3).
At hourly heating the temperature increases by 30-50 ˚C, depending on volume of the
boiler and capacity of the heating element.
It is necessary to know that the vertical boiler of the same size and capacity of the heater
is on 15% efcient.

The features of stainless steel boiler
Stainless steel boilers are made of 2 mm quality sheet metal. All boilers are necessary
to be earthed. For sealed stainless steel boilers, grounding performs through bolted
connection on the boiler, which is connected to the grounding mat of the house or
electrical system (grounding mat resistance not more than 10 ohms). This work have
to be executed by a qualied technician who after installation checks the correctness
of grounding (difference of voltage potential must not exceed 2 (two) volts). Keep in
mind that zero cleat of electrical panel is not grounding mat! In the event of default of
given condition consumer loses the right for a warranty. Manufactured sealed boilers
of stainless steel are provided with a protective anode (the letter “A” on Pic. 1 and 2).
Protective anode must be checked at least once a year, more often if necessary, and
replace if magnesium anode layer is absent. Anodes are available in all large stores
of building materials. The optimal water temperature in the boiler is 55-75 ˚ C, since at
temperatures above 80 ˚ C occurs an intensive scale formation. Hot water consumption
depends on the water temperature: at 40 degrees water consumption per person is on
average 30-50 liters, at 60 degrees water consumption is 18-30 liters. Using stainless
steel boilers rst connection to the boiler must be made of stainless steel. If you have
questions about the operating, you can get advice from the seller or manufacturer.
Critical information
!!! Incorrectly installed boiler can cause a dangerous situation.
Please read carefully the manual of the boiler before its installation and operation. Please
keep in mind that in addition to manual should be considered the following:
• The person establishing the boiler must be appropriately qualied and licensed;
• Boiler must be grounded. Grounding must be performed by a qualied electrician, with
subsequent verication;
• The safety valve is installed on the boiler;
• The safety valve must be serviceable. Ensure that the valve is not over tightened;
• Installation the boiler to the wall must withstand 3 times load of lled with water boiler;
To produce connecting of the boiler use the scheme below (see Pic 1, 2 and 3).
Installation of the boiler
Installation of the boiler executes by the person having the license and / or relevant
qualications. Boiler is designed for connection to a central water system or low pressure
hydrophore system. To avoid heat losses the boiler installs as close as possible to the
place of consumption. Open pass boiler is lled with water manually and cannot be used
without water.
!!! Manufacturer and seller are not responsible for defects or malfunctions due to
improper installation of the boiler and ignoring the requirements of this manual.
!!! Boiler installs in a room where the temperature does not drop below 0 ˚C. If the
temperature in the boiler installation room drops below 0 ˚C, it is necessary to drain the
water from the system.
!!! When installing the boiler on the ceiling, attic or over living quarters should be possible
to the emergency drain of water (through the branch pipes). All hydro connections
perform under current regulations of the country.
!!! The boiler must be protected with a safety valve. To avoid damage of the spring
mechanism, do not over tighten the valve.
Connecting of the boiler
Pic. 1 - Scheme of connecting horizontal boiler. Pic. 2 - Scheme of connecting vertical
boiler. Pic. 3 - Scheme of connecting open pass boiler.
The system operates as follows: (4) cold water enters the boiler from the head pipe. The
water from the boiler supplies via pipe (2) to the heater where it heats and supplies back
into the boiler through the pipe (1). Occurs a “so-called the natural circulation“ of water
through the heating element. While circulating the water in the boiler heats and through
the pipe (3) feds to a mixer S), where it mixes with cold water from the water-main and
supplies to the faucet or shower device.
This scheme is for connecting the boiler under pressure. At boiling of water in the boiler
the excessive pressure (steam) discharged through the safety valve (K).
Using open pass boiler (Pic. 3) the water adds to the boiler by scoop or through a hose.
Through the pipes (2) and (1) occurs the circulation of water through the heater, while
warming up. At the bottom of the boiler is welded connection pipe ½“ for faucet or hose
through which if necessary can be drain the water from the boiler.
For reliable operation of the boiler connection pipes to the heater have to be with a
diameter ¾“. To avoid hydraulic shocks boiler installs within 3 m from the heater. Using
stainless-steel boiler rst connections to the boiler have to be made of stainless steel
(clutches, etc.) NB! Due to the fact that lately actively uses electrical appliances there
is a risk of electro corrosion, so the boiler must be grounded. Grounding makes by wire
section not less than 1,5 mm and grounds the body of the boiler to the grounding mat
by electrical bolted connection. Should be noted that zero cleat of the electrical panel
is not grounding mat!
Maintenance of boiler
Manufacturer assumes that the boiler maintenance provides by knowledgeable expert.
Washing of the boiler is done at least once a year. Is also necessary ushing of heat
source of water heating, frequency of which depends on the quality of water, volume of
the boiler and the heat source device, but on average at least once a year. If problems
occur, implement ushing immediately.
