3. Transport and storage
3.1 Transport
Take following precautions before transporting the boiler:
•
Drain the water from the boiler
• Uncouple the fuel system
• Remove the burner (see 4.1.5, replacing the burner)
While transporting the boiler, take following precautions:
•
Don’t damage the boiler, use a blanket to cover the boiler.
• Transport the boiler lying down on its back
• For the boiler models B-25 onwards use the hoisting eye to move the boiler. This hoisting eye is
located below the top of the boiler cover.
3.2 Storage
Take the following precautions when the boiler is stored for a longer period of time:
•
Store the boiler and accompanying parts in a dry place.
• Dismount the burner
• Store the boiler standing up.
• Store the boiler on a firm horizontal base.
4 Installing and preparing for first use
In this chapter you will find directions and hints for a correct placement and fitting of the boiler and
accompanying parts.
Wa rning: Don’t store any flammable and gaseous substances in the room where the boiler is
installed. This is to ensure that no explosions or fires can occur.
4.1 Installation
4.1.1 Fitting the boiler
•
Install the boiler in a dry place.
• Install the boiler on a firm horizontal base.
• Make sure there is sufficient supply of fresh air in the
room where the boiler is installed (see hint below)
Hint: As a rule of thumb for the ventilation openings, take 2,5
times the diameter of the flue gas outlet.
•
To avoid movement secure the base of the boiler by
means of spotwelds or with nuts and bolts.
• Keep a minimum distance of 250mm behind the boiler
for the flue-gas outlet (see figure 1)
