The boiler must be installed in a fixed loca-
tion and only by specialized and qualified
firms in compliance with all instructions
contained in this manual.
Furthermore, the installation must be in
accordance with current standards and
regulations.
2.1
BOILER ROOM
The boilers can be installed in any domestic
environment without any location restric-
tions or comburent air requirements.
2.3
BOILER SUPPORT BRACKET
For the mounting of the support bracket of
the boiler, which is supplied, observe the fol-
lowing instructions (fig. 4):
–Fix the bracket to the wall with appro-
priate dowels.
–Check with a spirit level that it is perfec-
tly in horizontal plane.
2.3.1
Installation plate (optional)
The installation plate code 8081216 is sup-
plied with an instruction sheet for the fixing.
2.3.2
System connection unions
The following optional accessories are avail-
able to facilitate water and gas connection
of the boiler with the heating system:
–curve kit, code 8075423
–cock kit, code 8091809
Detailed instructions for assembly of the
unions are provided with the kits.
2.3.3
Flow regulator
At the inlet of the hot water a flow regula-
tor brown is installed, from 12 l/ min (fig.
5).
2.4
CONNECTING UP SYSTEM
To protect the heat system from damaging
corrosion, incrustation or deposits, after
installation it is extremely impor tant to
clean the system using suitable products
such as, for example, Sentinel X300 or
X400.
Complete instructions are provided with
the products but, for further information,
you may directly contact GE Betz.
For long-term protection agains corrosion
and deposits, the use of inhibitors such as
Sentinel X100 is recommended after clea-
ning the system.
It is important to check the concentration
of the inhibitor after each system modifica-
tion and during maintenance following the
manufacturer’s instructions (specific tests
are available at your dealer).
The safety valve drain must be connected
to a collection funnel to collect any dischar-
ge during int er ventions. If the heating
system is on a higher floor than the boiler,
install the on/off taps supplied in kit code
8 0 918 0 9 o n t h e h e a t i n g s y s t e m
delivery/return pipes.
WARNING:
Failure to clean the heat system or add
an adequate inhibitor invalidates the devi-
ce’s warranty.
Gas connections must be made in accor-
dance with current standards and regula-
tions. When dimensioning gas pipes from
the meter to the module, both capacity
volume (consumption) in m
3
/h and gas
density must be taken into account.
The sections of the piping making up the
system must be such as to guarantee a
supply of gas sufficient to cover the maxi-
mum demand, limiting pressure loss
between the gas meter and any apparatus
being used to not greater than:
–1.0 mbar for family II gases (natural gas);
–2.0 mbar for family III gases (butane or
propane).
An adhesive data plate is sticked inside the
front panel; it contains all the technical data
identifying the boiler and the type of gas for
which the boiler is arranged.
2.4.1
Connection of condensation
water trap
The drip board and its water trap must be
connected to a civil drain through a pipe
with a slope of at least 5 mm per metre to
ensure drainage of condensation water.
The plastic pipes normally used for civil
drains are the only type of pipe which is
appropriate for conveying condensation
to the building’s sewer pipes.
2.4.2
Filter on the gas pipe
The gas valve is supplied ex factory with an
inlet filter, which, however, is not adequate to
entrap all the impurities in the gas or in gas
main pipes. To prevent malfunctioning of the
valve, or in certain cases even to cut out the
safety device with which the valve is equip-
ped, install an adequate filter on the gas pipe.
2.5
SYSTEM FILLING
The boiler and the heating system are filled
with water using the fill cock (fig. 6).
The charge pressure, with the system cold,
must be
1 bar
.
Filling must be done slowly so as to allow
any air bubbles to be bled off through the air
valves.
