APPLIANCE OPERATION
Publication No. 5111813
NOTE:
All delay timers mentioned in 3.1 and 3.2 are
overridden by domestic hot water demand.
3.1
Central Heating Mode
(Fig. 2)
1. With a demand for heating, the pump circulates
water through the primary circuit. At a pre-determined
flow rate the central heating flow switch operates,
initiating the ignition sequence.
2. The main burner ignites at low rate, then the gas
valve controls the gas rate to maintain the heating
temperature measured by the temperature sensor.
3. When the flow temperature exceeds the setting
temperature, a 3 minute delay occurs before the
burner relights automatically (anti-cycling). The pump
continues to run during this period.
4. When the demand is satisfied the burner is
extinguished and the pump continues to run for a
period of 3 minutes (Pump Overrun).
5. If there is no other demand the pre-heat function
will operate if switched on (see Section 3.2).
3.2
Domestic Hot Water - Preheat Mode
(Fig. 3)
1. With the pre-heat function switched on (pre-heat
control fully clockwise), priority is given to the
replenishment of the pre-heat store. The DHW mode
neon ( ) will flash during this function.
2. The diverter valve remains in the DHW priority
position. This allows the pump to circulate hot water
to the store and back to the primary heat exchanger
via the bypass pipe.
3. The automatic ignition sequence commences after
approximately 25 seconds and the burner will light.
4. When the store reaches the desired temperature
the burner is extinguished. The pump continues to run
for a period of 30 seconds.
5. Following a demand for domestic hot water or the
end of a central heating ON period, the pre-heat
function restarts.
