COMBINATION BOILERS

INTRODUCTION

The Buccaneer GTE Combination Boilers are automatic
independent hot-water boilers designed for connecting to a flue
which require a separate fuel oil or gas burner.

Models available:

Heating and domestic hot water:

- Buccaneer GTE Combination Boiler - Boiler with an MLS

160 or 250 litre domestic hot water tank and a standard
control panel.

The DHW calorifier is equipped with a titanium anode.  This
system is controlled by the control panel and ensures the
calorifier needs no maintenance.

Important Recommendations

The boiler/tank assembly must be installed in premises free
from frost.  Placing the tank as closely as possible to the
water supply will minimise energy losses in the pipework
which should be lagged in all cases.

It is advisable to place the boiler/tank assembly on a plinth
so that the area can be easily cleaned.

Description

The tank, made of high-grade steel, is lined on the inside with
vitrified enamel which protects the tank from corrosion.

The tank is also protected from corrosion by a titanium anode.
The heat exchanger fitted in the tank is constructed of smooth
tubing.  Those surfaces coming into contact with domestic hot
water are enamelled.

The tanks are heavily insulated in CFC-free polyurethane foam,
thus reducing heat losses to a minimum.

The outer casing is in painted sheet metal.

WARNINGS.

-

Installation, commissioning and maintenance must be
carried out by a qualified technician, in accordance with
installation practices and the instructions in this document.

-

Regular maintenance of the equipment is necessary to
ensure safe and reliable performance.

-

For the guarantee to remain valid, no modifications must be
made to the domestic hot water tank.

-

Central heating water and domestic hot water must never
come into contact.  In particular, the exchanger must not
circulate domestic hot water.
