Operation

4.1

Controls on the boiler control panel

4.1.1 Control THETA 23R

Mains switch

Switches the oil condensing boiler on and off. When the heating system is on, the mains switch is illuminated green.

Burner malfunction indicator

During normal operation, the burner malfunction indicator is off. When it lights up, it indicates a burner malfunction.
For troubleshooting instructions, see chapter 6.2.

STL indicator

The STL indicator is off during normal operation. When it lights up, it indicates a safety temperature shutoff due to a serious 
malfunction in the heating system (e.g. pump defect, clogging or air in the system). For troubleshooting instructions, 
see chapter 6.4.

Pressure gauge

– Black pointer: Indication of the current water pressure in the heating system.
– Green range: Permitted water pressure range.
– Red pointer: Indication of the permitted minimum pressure.
The black pointer must be in the green range. If it is to the left of the red pointer, the water pressure must be increased by topping 
up the system (see section 4.4.1).

The ROTEX oil condensing boiler A1 BO can be operated with the THETA 23R controller or with the ALPHA 23R 
controller. The electronic digital controls are to be used for controlling 2 heating circuits (direct heating circuit, 
mixer circuit) and a storage tank charging circuit.
You will find an exact description in the respective documentation on the ROTEX Control.
