Vitodens 100-W, B1HA/B1KA 26 to 125 Combi Installation/Service
The Vitodens 100-W boiler comes with a built-in
condensate trap. An external trap is not required when
connecting the field drain to flexible discharge tubing.
Discharge tubing (field supplied) must be of 1 in. diameter.
Use CPVC, PVC or other material approved by codes listed
below.
In the U.S. the drain pipe and fittings must conform to
ANSI standards and ASTM D1785 or D2846. CPVC or
PVC cement and primer must conform to ASTM D2564
or F493. In Canada use CSA or ULC listed schedule 40
CPVC or PVC drain pipe, fittings and cement.
If the condensate outlet of the Vitodens 100-W boiler
is lower than the drain, a condensate pump must be
installed. Select a pump which is approved for condensing
boiler applications. To avoid condensate spillage, select a
pump with an overflow switch. The drain connection must
terminate into an open or vented drain as close to the
boiler as possible to prevent siphoning of the boiler drain.
