5.1 Standard Range
When properly installed and adjusted, the heater will require
minimal attention. Should it become necessary to completely
drain the heater, close the cold water inlet valve and open a hot
water tap to allow air to enter the system. Fit a suitable hose to
the drain cock and open.
Whenever the heater is filled with cold water, condensation will
form on the storage vessel surfaces when the burner is lit. This
is normal and will disappear when the heater warms up.
The gas control fitted to the heater has a built-in limit thermostat
(ECO). In the event of high water temperature, the gas supply
will be shut off automatically.
The high temperature condition must be identified and rectified
before the heater is relit.
The gas control is fitted with a recycling type ECO. This means
that, once the water has cooled sufficiently, the ECO circuit will
close and allow the heater to be relit.
A replacement gas control valve must be an identical model with
the same code number.
5.2 HIflo Range
5.2.1 Permanent pilot models, operating sequence
1. With the pilot lit, the solenoid coil holds the inlet gas port on
the gas valve open.
2. The knob on the gas valve is set to the ON position.
3. The control thermostat is set to the desired water
temperature, 49°C to 82°C. To set the thermostat, remove
the outer cover and turn the adjustment dial to the required
temperature.
4. The thermostat should now be in a closed position allowing
the current generated by the pilot-energised thermopile to
open the main burner valve.
5. The gas valve has a slow burning feature. Burners will light
several seconds after setting the thermostat.
6. Burners will continue to heat water until the preset
temperature is reached. As the thermostat opens, the
thermopile current is interrupted and the main gas valve will
close.
