Conditions for the boiler room and the environment
Operating conditions
Min. boiler water
temperature
Operating interruption
(complete boiler shutdown)
heating circuit with
heating circuit mixing valve
1)
Min. return temperature
In combination with control for variable low-temperature operating modes.
If heating zones or a boiler
circuit actuator cannot be
regulated via the control
device (for example pump
logic), an operating
temperature of 122 °F
(50 °C) must be reached
within 10 min of switching
the burner ON by
restricting the water
volume flow.
Possible if, after interruption of the
operation, there is at least 3 hours
heating operation.
not required but recommended with
low-temperature heating system
design 130/113 °F (55 / 45 °C)
Required with:
•
Underfloor heating systems
•
Systems with high water content:
> 115° gal/MBH (>15 l/kW)
(1 MBH = 100.000 Btu/hr)
not required, except for operation
with a modulating burner for:
•
Oil combustion: 113 °F (45 °C)
•
Gas combustion: 130 °F (55 °C)
In conjunction with a controls for constant boiler water temperatures or with supplementary external programmer and aquastat
150 °F

)
possible if, after interruption of the
operation, there is at least 3 hours
heating operation
required
Required with:
•
Systems with high water content
> 115 gal/MBH: 130 °F (15 l/kW:
55 °C)
•
Operation with a modulating
burner: 130 °F (55 °C)
Table 5
General operating conditions
1) A heating circuit with a mixing valve improves controllability and is specifically recommended for systems with several heating
zones.
2) Boiler water temperature control setting: when the boiler is in ON mode, the minimum boiler water temperature in the boiler must
be reached within 10 minutes, e.g. by flow rate limitation, and maintained as the minimum temperature.^
Operating conditions
Notes – Requirement in greater detail
Temperature in the boiler room
+40 (+5 °C) to
+104 °F (+40 °C)
relative humidity
max. 90 %
No condensation or precipitation inside the boiler room
Dust/airborne particles
−
Excessive dust inside the boiler room must be avoided when the boiler is operating, e. g.:
•
Dust from building work
Combustion air supplied from outside must not be excessively loaded with dust or
airborne particles; if necessary, air filters should be fitted in case
:
•
Air supply contaminated with dust from dirt roads and paths.
•
Air supply contaminated with dust from production and processing facilities, e. g.
quarries, mines, etc.
•
Airborne particles from thistles and similar
Halogenated-hydrocarbon
compounds
−
The combustion air must be free from halogenated-hydrocarbon compounds.
•
Identify the source of halogen-hydrocarbon compounds and seal it off. Where this is
impossible, route combustion air from areas that are not contaminated by halogen-
hydrocarbon compounds.
