Danger!
Danger of injury to persons and/or material
damage due to improper installation!
The Vaillant ecoTEC boiler may only be
installed by a recognised skilled trade company.
who also assumes the responsibility for proper
installing and initial start-up of the boiler.
a
Caution!
The ecoTEC VU 466 must be used with a
suitably sized low loss header.
Selection of the low loss header
The low loss header uncouples the boiler from the
heating installation. A sufficiently large water volume is
constantly supplied through the boiler via the low loss
header in conjunction with the boiler circulation pump.
It acts as a neutral point in the system and has minimal
hydraulic resistance, therefore the boiler circulation
pump does not affect the circuit pumps and vice-versa.
A suitable WH type low loss header can be chosen from
Table 5.1.

Note!
We strongly recommend the installation of a
suitably sized quality dirt filter in the return
pipe work to the low loss header (not to the
boiler!) particularly in the case of old systems.
This will help to prevent any system water
contamination from entering and blocking the
boiler and producing an additional high pressure
loss.
No electrical accessories are required in order to use a
low loss header. Simple systems can be connected
directly inside the electronic box.
