▶ Insert the diaphragm into the fan connector.
The diaphragm flaps must open upwards.
▶ Close the mixer unit.
15.1.9 Expansion vessel
DANGER:
Risk of electric shock!
▶ Always disconnect the appliance from the mains power before
performing any work. Disconnect the emergency shutoff switch or
disengage the heating system circuit breaker. Take measures to
prevent accidental re-connection.
Annual inspection of the expansion vessel is required
▶ Depressurize the appliance.
▶ If necessary, adjust the expansion vessel pre-charge pressure to the
static head of the heating system (
15.1.10 Setting the boiler water pressure
Table 35 Operating pressure
▶ If the indicator is below 14.5 psi (1 bar) when the system is cold, top
up the water. The indicator must be between 14.5 psi (1 bar) and
21.75 psi (1.5 bar).
If using a hose to fill the heating system, prefill the hose with water to
prevent air being introduced into the system.
▶ If the pressure is not held, check the expansion vessel and heating
system for leaks.
15.1.11 Testing system water quality
▶ Take a representative sample of the system water and analyze pH
using a pH meter or pH test strips.
Table 36 Water preparation for filling and maintaining the heating system
(pH-value)
▶ If the value is outside of the permitted range, drain the system, flush,
and refill with fresh water to prevent system damage or leaks.
▶ If the fill water does not meet the requirements of page 33, treat the
water to bring it within the permissible range.
▶ If antifreeze is being used in the system, check the frost protection
properties to ensure the site specific requirements are met.
15.1.12 Checking the electrical wiring
▶ Check electrical wiring for mechanical damage and replace defective
cables.
