Filling the condensate siphon

Fig. 5.4 Filling the condensate siphon

 Danger!

Note that if the boiler is run with an empty 
condensate trap there is a danger that fumes 
might escape into the room and cause 
poisoning. For this reason, it is important to 
ensure that the trap is topped up each time the 
unit is cleaned.

•  Remove the lower part (

1

) of the condensate siphon by 

turning the bayonet catch in anticlockwise direction.

•  Fill the lower part with water until about 10 mm below 

the upper edge.

•  Refit the lower part of the condensate siphon.

5.7 

Adjusting the pumping capacity

Only in ecoTEC plus boilers:

The capacity of the two-stage pump can be adjusted to 
the requirements of the heating system. If needed, 
change the setting of the operating mode dependent 
pump speed under the diagnostic number “

d.19

” (see 

section 8.1.2).

5.8 Adjusting 

the 

by-pass

The appliances have an adjustable by-pass valve.
The pressure can be adjusted between 170 and 
350 mbar. Approx. 250 mbar is preset (mid-position). 
The pressure changes by approx. 10 mbar each time the 
adjusting screw is rotated. By turning right, the pressure 
increases and turning left decreases it.

•  Regulating the by-pass on the adjusting screw (

).

5.9 

Checking the gas setting

 Caution!

Malfunctions or reduction in working life of the 
boiler!
If the boiler version does not correspond to the 
local gas family, there will be malfunctions or 
you have to change components of the boiler 
ahead of schedule, e. g. do not use a LPG boiler 
on natural gas.
•  

Before starting up the boiler compare the 
details of the type of gas specified on the 
identification plate with the type of gas 
supplied at the installation site.
