14. system protection

Failure  to  protect  the  system  will  invalidate  the  manufacturer’s 

warranty.

After the system has been installed the cleansing and inhibiting 

procedure must be carried out as follows:

Procedure:

1.  Fill  the  system  with  cold  mains  water  to  the  recommended 

pressure 1.5 bar and check for leaks, then drain the system 

thoroughly making sure all drain cocks are fully open and that 

the system is completely drained.

2.  Add Fernox Heavy Duty restorer through the header tank or 

via filling loop at the recommended dose. One bottle must be 

used as a minimum per dwelling. If you are unsure of the cor-

rect dose rate, contact Fernox.

3.  Re-fill the system and circulate the Heavy-Duty Restorer prior 

to the boiler being fired up, then commission the system in 

the normal way. The cleansing agent must be in the system 

for a minimum 1 hour with the system at normal operating 

temperature. A longer period of time would be more beneficial 

to the cleansing process especially if excess flux was used.

4.  Drain and flush the system thoroughly to remove the cleaning 

agent and any debris or contaminant. This is a critical part of 

the cleaning process and must be carried out correctly. Use a 

rinse test meter (TDS), such as the Fernox CTM. The reading 

must be within 10% of the mains ppm value.

5.  Then add the Fernox Protector (Copal MB1 or Super concen-

trate). This will protect against the formation of scale, corrosion 

and  microbiological  growths.  It  is  crucial  however,  that  for 

the protector to work correctly, the system must be properly 

cleansed and flushed.

6.  The label included within the Fernox Protector carton should 

be completed and attached adjacent to the boiler.

7.  We recommend inhibitor levels are checked on an annual basis 

(usually during the service) or sooner if the system content is 

lost. This should be carried out using a Fernox inhibitor Test 

Kit.

8.  Fernox Technical Service Helpline on 0870 870 0362 for further 

assistance.

15.  start-up / Commissioning

1.  Ensure the system is filled with water and correctly vented.
2.  Check  if  the  appropriate  system  installation  pressure  is 

reached(see the “TECHNICAL DATA” section). By using   or 

 but-tons whilst the control panel is off, the pressure value 

will be displayed. When the installation pressure is too low The 

“A’’indicator flickers (see “Operating’’ section). This doesn’t 

concern open vented system installations.

3.  Set the external controls to call for heat. Disconnect the flow 

sensor wiring plug on the control panel.

4.  Switch the boiler on (press   button).
5.  Check the pump is set to the correct mode (see table below). 

Todo this, press   button for no more than 2 seconds. The 

LED’sshould signal an operating mode at the place pointed by 

arrow.

6.  If the LEDs are signaling a different operating mode than rec-

ommended in the table below, set the appropriate mode ac-

cording to the following instructions: press   button for longer 

than 2 seconds, but less than 10 seconds (LED’s will start to 

flash),the pump then switches to the settings mode. LEDs glows 

to indicate the current settings. To change the settings of the 

pump in accordance with the table below, you can set the right 

combination of glowing LEDs by pressing 

 

the button. Once 

LED combination is set correct, by not pressing 

 

the button for 

10 seconds the pump will remember this setting and will exit 

from setting mode back to performance view.

 

note: holding

 

 button for more than 10 seconds will enter the 

pump into key lock mode. this prevents the user from altering 

the pump settings. To remove the key lock the pump settings and 

allow the pump settings to be changed, hold button

 

 again for 

more than 10 seconds.

7.  Ensure  adequate  flow  through  the  boiler  is  reached  (the 

„H”indicator  is  on  with  a  constant  light).  The  pump  should 

self vent after a short period of running. if necessary assist the 

venting process in the following way; 

Warning the screw head 

in the centre of the pump is not intended to be used to assist 

venting of the pump, Damage to the pump internals may oc-

cur!

•  close the isolation valve on the outlet,
•  leave boiler running for 15 sec.
•  open the isolation valve.
8.  Switch the boiler off (hold   button for 3 seconds).
9.  Reconnect the flow sensor plug to the control panel.
10. Switch the boiler on (press   button).
11. Set the boiler to the required system temperature, see the “Op-

erating” section.

alarm status

If the pump has detected one or more alarms, the bicolored LED 1 

switches from green to red. When an alarm is active, the LEDs indi-

cate the alarm type as defined in the table below. If multiple alarms 

are active at the same time, the LEDs only show the error with the 

highest priority. The priority is defined by the sequence of the table. 

When there is no active alarm anymore, the user interface switches 

back to operation mode.
