1. GENERAL
1.1 Description of the heater
Construction of the heater is in accordance with the
European standards for gas-fired water heaters for
sanitary use (EN 89). The heaters therefore comply
with the European Guidelines for Gas Heaters and
are permitted to carry the CE mark.
They are atmospheric heaters suitable for both gas-
fired and oil-fired ventilator burners (heater category
B23).
The heaters are suitable for use with a working
pressure of up to 8 bar. The cylindrical tank is made
from sheet steel containing a number of vertically
placed flue tubes. For protection against corrosion,
the inside of the tank is glass lined. The tank is also
fitted with a number of magnesium anodes for extra
protection against corrosion. A thick PU insulating
layer between the tank and the steel jacket helps to
reduce heat loss.
When the heater is completely filled with water, it
is under continuous mains water pressure. When
hot water is drained from the heater, cold water
immediately enters the heater. For effective heat
transfer, flue baffles have been included in the flue
tubes. Heat from the flue gases is transferred to the
water by means of radiation and convection.
1.1.1 Packaging material
The packaging protects the device against
transportation damage. The selected packaging
material is environmentally friendly, recyclable
and can be disposed of in a relatively easy and
environmentally friendly way.
1.1.2 Disposal
Old and discarded devices contain substances that
are to be recycled. Please take the local laws with
respect to waste processing into account when
disposing of old and discarded devices.
Never dispose of your old device through the
domestic waste, but bring it to a municipal collection
point for electric and electronic equipment. If
necessary, ask your dealer/installer for information.
Store the old device outside the reach of children.
