Placing the heating system in operation

▶ Complete the commissioning report during the commissioning 

procedure (

 page 23).

6.1

Testing the safety valve

The safety valve must open and relieve pressure when the set operating 
pressure is exceeded. If the safety valve fails to release excess pressure, 
it must be replaced, because otherwise system components may be 
damaged by excessive operating pressure. 

6.2

Making the heating system ready for operation

The burner/gas valve unit integrated in the boiler have been tested in the 
factory as described in detail in ANSI Z 21.13 and CSA 4.9 to ensure 
safe operation of the heating system and to test specific performance 
features.

1. Set the room thermostats to the lowest setting.
2. Inspect flue gas and combustion air piping and the openings for 

combustion air supply and ventilation.

3. Fill heating system with water and bleed the complete system, 

including the radiators.

4. Unscrew the locking screws [2] at the bottom of the front cover [1], 

lift front cover up, pull forward and remove to the front.

5. Open the gas shutoff valve.

6. Check the gas supply line to the gas valve for leaks with soap solution. 

If no leaks are found, continue with step 8.

7. If leaks are detected, close the gas shutoff valve, seal the leaks, and 

repeat step 6.

8. Close the gas shutoff valve. Remove the screw plug from the gas 

supply pressure test point [2] on the gas valve in order to measure 
the gas supply pressure. Install pressure test port and attach a 
pressure gauge.

9. To measure the orifice pressure, remove the screw plug from the 

orifice pressure test point [3] on the gas valve. Install pressure test 
port and attach a pressure gauge.

10. Open the gas shutoff valve and measure the gas supply pressure to 

the boiler. The supply pressure for natural gas must be between 
7"...10.5" W.C. (17.4...26.2 mbar) and between 11"...13" W.C. 
for propane gas (27.4...32.4 mbar). If the connection pressure is 
not in this range with natural gas, contact your customer service 
technician or gas utility company. Close the gas shutoff valve.

11. Follow the startup instructions in Section 6.3.

DANGER: 

Risk of fatal injury from electric current when 

appliance is opened up!
▶ Before opening the appliance:

Disconnect the heating system from the power 
supply completely via the ON/OFF switch or the 
appropriate building fuse.

▶ It is not sufficient just to switch off the controller.
▶ Take measures to ensure that the heating system 

cannot be accidentally reactivated.

NOTICE: 

Risk of system damage due to short-circuits!

▶ Cover any hazardous locations prior to locating the 

leaks.

▶ Do not spray leak detector onto conduits, plugs or 

electrical connection cables or allow it to drip onto 
them.
