ENGLISH
- Frost protection: The pumps are switched on on the
basis of outside temperature irrespective of demand
for heat.
If outside temperature drops below -4°C the pumps
are switched on. If outside temperature is between -5°
and 1.5°C, the pumps are switched on for 10 minutes
at intervals of 6 hours. If outside temperature is above
1.5°C the pumps are switched off.
- Chimney sweep: The burner is ignited to obtain the
conditions necessary for combustion analysis. To
obtain continuous burner functioning, maximum oper-
ating temperature is set at the boiler’s maximum set-
point.
All loads are switched off to start with, in order to bring
the boiler to its 64°C setpoint as quickly as possible.
When the boiler reaches 64°C, the heating circuits are
opened one by one to dissipate the heat and allow the
burner to continue functioning.
- Limit thermostat (parameter 2310): This function shuts
the burner down if boiler temperature exceeds the
maximum permitted limit, which coincides with the boil-
er’s maximum setpoint (parameter 2212 = 80 °C).
- DHW charging priority: if an optional remote storage
cylinder is installed and domestic hot water is drawn
off while the central heating circuit is also in use, this
function directs boiler power mainly to the DHW circuit.
- Boiler switching differential: This establishes a min-
imum run time for the burner, to stop it igniting and
shutting down repeatedly. The burner shuts down only
if boiler temperature exceeds a predetermined thresh-
old (parameter 2240).
- Solar collector protection:
- Collector frost protection (param. 3840)
- Collector overtemperature protection (param. 3850)
- Pump protection against vapour in heat transfer fluid
(param. 3860)

START-UP
Have THERMITAL’s Technical Assistance Service start-up your boiler for the first time. Once this has been done, the
boiler can be left to function automatically. Under certain circumstances, such as after long periods of disuse, the user
may need to re-start it without involving the Technical Assistance Service. Before doing so, perform the following checks
and operations:
- Check that the fuel cock and heating system water
cock are shut.
- While the system is still cold, check that the pressure
(1) in the heating circuit is over 1 bar but below the
maximum limit specified for the boiler. If water pressure
is low, contact THERMITAL’s Technical Assistance
Service.
- Switch the electricity supply ON at the system’s main
switch and at the control panel.
Check that the display comes on.
- When the boiler is first powered on, it performs a num-
ber of self-tests. These may take a few minutes. When
the tests are completed, the display reads out boiler
temperature.
Perform the following operations on the boiler control
panel.
- Press the "OK" button.
Select "Operator unit" and press "OK".
Select "Language" and press "OK".
Set the language you want.
