GAS

SUPPLY

The

requires

2.81

m3

/h

(99.3

ft3/hr)

of

gas.

The

gas

meter

and supply

pipes

must

be

capable

of

supplying

this

quantity

of

gas

in

addition

to

the demand

from

any

other appliances

being

served.

The

table

below

gives

an

indication

of

limiting

gas

pipe

lengths and the allowance

to

be

made

for

fittings.

Refer

to

BS6891

for

further

information.

The

meter governor should

deliver

a dynamic pressure

of

20

mbar

(Sin

wg.)

at the appliance, equivalent to a pressure

of

about 18.5·19 mbar at the gas

valve.

The

complete installation,

including

the gas

meter,

must

be

test·

ed

for

soundness and

purged.

2.1 0 CONTROLS

The

electronic

control

system

and

gas

valve

modulate the heat

input

in

response

to

the central heating and domestic hot water

temperature settings between

minimum

and

maximum.

The

Switch

provides

for

the selection

of

2.11 SYSTEM NOTES

WARNING

Check

that

no

dirt

is

left

in

either

the

gas

and

water

pipework

as

this

could

cause

damage

to

the

appliance.

Thoroughly

flush

the heating system

and

the

cold

water

mains

supply.

Purge

the

gas

supply

before

finally

connecting

the

appliance

..

The

water

pipe

connections throughout a sealed system must

be

capable

of

sustaining a pressure

of

upto 3

bar.

Radiator valves must

conform

to

the requirements

of

BS2767

(10):

1972.

The

relief

valve

discharge must

be

directed

away

from

any

elec-

trical components

or

where

it

would

cause a hazard

to

the

user.

Adrain

cock

to

BS

2879 must

be

fitted

to

the lowest point

of

the

system.

For

circuit

design

purposes

it

is

important that due note

is

taken

of

the information given

in

Table

3 relating

to

the available

pump

head.

2.12

SHOWERS, BIDETS,

TAPS

AND

MIXING

VALVES

Hot

and

cold

taps and

mixing

valves

used

in

the system must

be

suitable

for

operating at a

mains

pressure

of

up

to

10

bar.

Thermostatically controlled or pressure equalising shower

valves

will

guard against the

flow

of

water at

too

high

a temper·

ature.

Hot

and

cold

mains

fed

water can

be

supplied direct

to

an

over·

rim

flushing

bidet subject

to

local

Water

Company

requirements.

With

all

mains

fed

systems the

flow

of

water

from

the

individual

taps

will

vary

with

the number

of

outlets operated simultane-

ously and the

cold

water

mains

supply pressure

to

the

property.

Flow

balancing

using

'Ball·o-Fix'

type

valves

is

recommended

to

avoid

an excessive reduction

in

flow

to

individual outlets.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

The

appliance must

not

be

operated

in

a waterless condition.

The

appliance must not

be

operated

with

the boiler inner casing

cover

removed.

Work

must not

be

carried out

on

the appliance without the gas

and electricity supplies

being

switched

off.

Checks

must

be

made

to

ensure that the ventilation openings

made

into

walls

and partitions

are

of

the correct

size

and

are

not

obstructed.

2.14

OPERATION

Domestic

Hot

Water:

With

a demand

for

hot water the burner

will

light

at its

maximum

setting and then automatically adjust

its output

to

maintain

thP.

tP.mperature

of

the delivered

water.

When

hot water

is

no

longer required, the burner

will

extin-

guish.

The

pump

will

continue

to

run

for

a short period

to

dissi-

pate the

residual

heat

from

the

appliance.

Central

Heating:

With

a demand

for

heating the burner

will

light

at its

minimum

setting and

gradually

increase

to

give

the

maxi·

mum output.

The

output

of

the appliance

is

then automatically

adjusted

to

maintain the temperature

of

the system.

The

output

can reduce down

to

a minimum

of

9.2

kW.

If

the system

no

longer requires even the minimum output to maintain the

desired

room

temperature the burner

will

extinguish.

The

pump

will

continue

to

run

to

dissipate the

residual

heat

from

the

appli·

ance.

The

appliance

will

remain

off

for

a

fixed

period

of

two

min-

utes

before

re-lighting

to

automatically meet the system

require-

ments.

Domestic

Hot

Water

and

Central

Heating:

The

appliance

will

supply heat to the central heating system as required. A

for

the period

of

the domestic

hot water demand.

When

hot water

is

no

longer required the

burner

will

extinguish and the appliance

will

return

to

the

cen-

tral heating state and

its

normal

mode

of

operation.

The

pump

will

continue

to

run

to

dissipate the

9.1 The following are general requirements and,

if

necessary,

reference should be made to the local Water Company before

fitting the appliance.

9.2

MAINS

COLD

WATER INLET. Devices capable of preventing

the flow of expansion water must not be fitted unless separate

arrangements have been made.

An

expansion vessel connection

point (Rc'/2)

is

provided adjacent to the

flow

switch within the

appliance.

A Zilmet 2160 expansion vessel

is

the preferred type. A thread

sealant compatible with potable water must be used.

9.3 The

final

600 mm

of

the mains cold water connection to the

appliance should be made

in

copper tube only.

9.4 The appliance

is

suitable

for

a mains pressure of up to 10

bar (150 lb/in').

9.5 The appliance

is

fitted with a mains supply isolating valve.

9.6

The

maximum

domestic

hot

water

flow

rate

is

8.5

litres/min. (± 15%)

(1

.87 gallons/min.).

9.7

In

winter (when the mains inlet water temperature

is

lower)

a reduced

flow

rate at the taps

will

be required to achieve the

maximum hot water delivery temperature available

in

warmer

weather.

9.8

It

is

a requirement

that

long pipe runs to the taps or shower

should

be

insulated to prevent the rapid cooling of domestic hot

water

after

a

tap

or

shower

has

been

turned

off. Refer

to

BS5546:1990.

9

9.9 Hot and cold taps and mixing valves used with this appli-

ance must be suitable

for

operating

at

a pressure ofup to 10 bar

(150 lb/in').

9.10

No

anti-syphonage arrangements are necessary except for

some loose head showers. See also Section

9.11

following.

9.11 Thermostatically controlled or pressure equalising shower

valves

will

guard against the

flow

of water at too high a temper-

ature.

9.12

The

head of a loose head shower must not

fall

closer than

25

mm

(1

in.)

above the

top

edge of the

bath

to

prevent its

immersion

in

bath water. Alternatively the shower must be

fit-

ted with an anti-syphonage device

at

the point of the flexible

hose connections.

9.13

The

supply

of

hot and cold mains water direct

to

a bidet

is

permitted, (subject to local Water Company requirements),

pro-

vided that the bidet

is

of the over-rim flushing type.

The

outlet(s)

should be shrouded and unable to have any temporary hand

held spray attached.

No

anti-syphonage arrangements are

nec-

essary.

9.14

As

the maximum temperature

of

the Water to Water heat

exchanger

is

limited by the control circuit, there

is

normally no

need for

water

treatment

to prevent scale accumulation.

In

exceptional circumstances a device to prevent scale formation

can be fitted.

Installation of a scale inhibitor assembly should be

in

accor-

dance with the requirements of the local Water Company.

An

isolating valve should be fitted to allow servicing. The water

hardness can be determined using a standard test paper or by

reference to the local Water Company.
