1.1 INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The Victrix X 12-24 2I boiler has been designed
only for wall mounted installation or installation
inside the wall using the recess frame provided;
they must be used to heat domestic environments
and similar purposes. The installation site and
relative Immergas accessories must have suitable
characteristics (both technical and structural),
in order to allow (always in safe, efficiency and
easiness conditions):
- installation (according to the legislation and
technical standards in force);
- maintenance operations (including those
scheduled, periodical, ordinary and special);
- removal (to the outdoors in a place suitable
for loading and transporting appliances and
components) as well as any replacement with
equivalent appliances and/or components.
In the case of wall installation the wall surface
must be smooth, without any protrusions or
recesses enabling access to the rear part. They
are NOT designed to be installed on plinths or
floors (Fig. 1-1).
By varying the type of installation the
classification of the boiler also varies, precisely:
- B
23
type boiler
- if installed using the relevant terminal for air
intake directly from the room in which the
boiler has been installed.
- using the spacers under the side plugs of the
sealed chamber inside the recess frame kit
(optional).
- Type C boiler if installed using concentric
pipes or other types of pipes envisioned for
the sealed chamber boiler for intake of air and
expulsion of flue gases.
Only professionally enabled heating/plumbing
technicians are authorised to install Immergas
gas appliances.
Installation must be carried out according to the
standards, current legislation and in compliance
with local technical regulations and the required
technical procedures.
Before installing the appliance, ensure that it
is delivered in perfect condition; if in doubt,
contact the supplier immediately. Packing
materials (staples, nails, plastic bags, polystyrene
foam, etc.) constitute a hazard and must be kept
out of the reach of children. If the appliance
is installed inside or between cabinets, ensure
sufficient space for normal servicing; therefore
it is advisable to leave clearance of at least 3
cm between the boiler casing and the vertical
sides of the cabinet. Leave adequate space
above the boiler for possible water and flue
removal connections. Keep all flammable objects
away from the appliance (paper, rags, plastic,
polystyrene, etc.).
Do not place household appliances underneath
the boiler as they could be damaged if the safety
valve intervenes (if not conveyed away by a
draining funnel), or if there are leaks from the
connections; on the contrary, the manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for any damage
caused to the household appliances.
In the event of malfunctions, faults or incorrect
operation, turn the appliance off immediately
and contact a qualified technician (e.g. the
Immergas Technical Assistance centre, which
has specifically trained staff and original spare
parts) Do not attempt to modify or repair the
appliance alone.
Failure to comply with the above implies personal
responsibility and invalidates the warranty.
• Installation regulations:
- this boiler can be installed outdoors in a
partially protected area. A partially protected
area is one in which the appliance is not
exposed to the direct action of the weather
(rain, snow, hail, etc..).
- Installation in places with a fire risk is
prohibited (for example: garages, box), gas
appliances and relative flue ducts, flue exhaust
pipes and combustion air intake pipes.
- Installation is prohibited on the vertical
projection of the cooking surface.
- Installation is also prohibited in places/
environments that constitute common parts
of office condominiums such as stairs, cellars,
entrance halls, attics, lofts, escape routes,
etc. if they are not located inside technical
compartments under the responsibility of
each individual building and only accessible
to the user (for the features of the technical
compartments, see the Reference Standard).
Important : Wall mounting of the boiler on the
wall or inside the wall must guarantee stable
and efficient support for the generator. The
recessed frame kit (Optional) guarantees an
adequate support only if installed correctly (in
accordance with the code of practice) following
the instructions on the instruction leaflet. The
recessed frame for the Victrix X 12-24 2I boiler is
not a supporting structure and must not replace
the wall removed. It is necessary to position the
boiler inside the wall. For safety reasons against
any leaks it is necessary to plaster the boiler
housing in the brick wall.
The plugs (standard supply) are to be used only in
conjunction with the mounting brackets or fixing
template to fix the appliance to the wall; they only
ensure adequate support if inserted correctly
(according to technical standards) in walls made
of solid or semi-hollow brick or block. In the
case of walls made from hollow brick or block,
partitions with limited static properties, or in any
case walls other than those indicated, a static test
must be carried out to ensure adequate support.
N.B.: the hex head screws supplied in the blister
pack are to be used exclusively to fix the relative
mounting bracket to the wall.
These boilers are used to heat water to below
boiling temperature in atmospheric pressure.
YES NO
They must be connected to a central heating
system and hot water circuit suited to their
performance and capacity.
Anti-Legionella thermal treatment of the Im-
mergas storage tank (which can be activated
through the specific function present on the set
thermoregulation systems): during this phase,
the water temperature inside the storage tank ex-
ceeds 60 °C resulting in burns hazards. Keep this
DHW treatment under control (and inform the
users), to prevent unexpected damage to persons,
animals and objects. If required, a thermostatic
valve must be installed at the DHW outlet to
prevent burns.
