6 Operating instructions 
 

6 .1 Function 

When a heating demand is received and before the boiler starts up, the appliance must be prepurged. 
The fan supplies combustion air and has a modulating control.  
A zero controller in the gas valve determines the required quantity of gas.  
Gas and air are optimally mixed.  
Thereafter, the gas air mixture is ignited on the main burner.  
The fan also ensures that the resulting flue gasses are subsequently removed.  
The removal system for these gasses performs an essential function for the proper operation of the 
appliance. 
The unit has no limits for return water temperature. If this temperature is low, condensation will 
be formed which will then be removed via the drainage system. 
 

6 .2 Regulation 

Depending on the heating demand, the unit will be started up and shut down between 0% and 
20% capacity and will be continuously modulated between 20% and 100% capacity.
