The 12 KW boilers must be installed in premises having a system impedance of not more than 
0.1939 + J 0.1939

 

 

0.1 Instructions 

General 

 

A pressure reducing valve must be fitted to the cold water inlet if the incoming water pressure exceeds 
300 KPA (3.0 Bar). 

 

The primary operating pressure initial charge is 150 KPA (1.5 bar) this will increase to around 200 KPA 
(2.0Bar) when the system has reached maximum temperature and will depend on system volume. 

 

The primary expansion vessel pre-charge pressure is 100 KPA (1.0 bar) and has volume of 50 litres. 

 

The secondary expansion vessel pre-charge pressure is between 200-350 KPA (2-3.5 bar) and has a 
volume of 0.5 litres. 

 

The primary pressure relief valve is set to 300 KPA (3.0 Bar).

WARNING: BEFORE OBTAINING ACCESS TO TERMINALS, ALL SUPPLY CIRCUITS MUST 
BE DISCONNECTED. 

 
 

The 

TH9

 has 

3

 and the 

TH12 

has

 4 

heating elements fitted. Size 16” in length and are manufactured 

from Inc-alloy EN60335.2.73. 
 
The rated power input of the 

TH9 

appliance is ~230- 240V, 50Hz, 8,250-9,000w

 

 
The rated power input of the

 TH12

 appliance is ~230-240V, 50Hz, 11,000-12,000w 

 

The elements fitted to the Thermaflow should

 

NOT 

be replaced with elements which are not 

approved for the Thermaflow boiler

 

It is recommended that the Thermaflow has a safety and maintenance check on an annual basis. 

 

 
 
A pressure reducing valve must be fitted to the cold water inlet of the appliance if the incoming 
pressure exceeds 300kPA (3 Bar). 

 

The position of the outlet from the discharge pipe shall be visible to the occupants and shall be 
positioned away from any electrical devices. 

 

The position of discharge pipes, (Tundish), drain valves and motorised valves etc, must be 
positioned away from electrical components. 

 

The water may drip from the discharge pipe of the pressure-relief device and must be left open to 
the atmosphere. 

 

The pressure relief device must be operated regularly to remove lime deposits and to verify that it 
is not blocked.
