CO Detection for cascade flues systems
Bosch has taken the decision to require the mandatory use of CO detection for boiler systems using a cascade flue system where there is
more than one appliance. CO detection must result in a boiler shut off and prevent CO exposure.
With our GC 7000 WP range, all Bosch Cascade base flue kits contain a CO detector for on-site wiring into our CC8313 controller or
MC400 Cascade controller, where these controllers are not used due to controls from a BMS system it is still a requirement that the BMS
has some form of CO detection thus activating a boiler shut off. The detection threshold level should be no higher than 50ppm.
Failure to fit a form of CO detection to a Cascade will result in a failed commissioning.
For more information on CO detection please see technical bulletin: TB 0164 a (07/2022)
Please refer to manufacturer’s instructions for more information on flue requirements.
