3.5 Electrical connections
Connect the cable supplied to the line, respecting the phase, neutral and
earth wiring. Should the power cable need to be replaced, this must be car-
ried out by a qualified technician. Connect the device to a H03V2 V2-F (3 x
0.75 mm
2
) max 7 mm Ø cable such as the one supplied; the earth wire must
also be 30 mm longer that the power cables. Connect the appliance to a
power supply using a mains switch with a contact gap of at least 3 mm. For
maintenance work, use the mains switch to cut the power supply.
b
We decline all responsibility for damage to persons, animals or
objects deriving from the failure to earth the appliance or wire an
electrical system that complies with the standards in force.
A qualified professional should check that the electrical system is suitable
for the appliance’s maximum absorbed power, as shown on the plate, en-
suring particularly that the section of the system cables is suited to the ap-
pliance’s absorbed power.
Adapters, multiple sockets or extension cables should not be used to con-
nect the appliance to the mains.
Some basic rules apply to the use of any electrically powered component,
such as:
- do not touch the appliance with wet or damp body parts and/or with bare
feet;
- do not pull the electrical cables;
- do not leave the appliance exposed to weathering (rain, sun, etc.);
- do not allow children or inexperienced individuals to use the appliance;
- the appliance’s power cable must not be replaced by the user.
Should the cable be damaged, turn off the device and seek assistance from
a qualified technician to replace it.
Should it be decided not to use the appliance for a certain period of time, it
is recommended that you switch off the power supply to all system compo-
nents that require electricity.
Should you need to replace the power cable, use the cable supplied by the
manufacturer or the technical support service.
3.6 Gas connection
b
Before turning on, make sure that the appliance can operate with the
available gas by checking the writing on the package and the adhe-
sive label indicating the type of gas.
Establish the pipe diameter according to the standards in force.
Before installing the appliance, it is recommended that you blow the gas
piping so as to remove any processing waste. Connect the appliance to the
internal system gas pipe and insert a valve upstream of the appliance to
isolate and turn on the gas.
Appliances operating with LPG and powered by gas cylinders with isolation
and control devices should be connected in such a way as to guarantee the
safety of people and the surrounding environment.
You should ensure compliance with the current standards.
When starting up the appliance for the first time, have the following checks
carried out by a qualified professional:
- a check on the internal and external gas delivery system seal;
-
a check on the gas flow rate according to the power required of the ap
-
pliance;
- that the appliance is powered by the type of gas for which it has been
set up;
- that the gas power supply pressure is within the values shown on the
technical data plate;
- that the gas power supply system has been sized for the input neces-
sary for the appliance and that it is fitted with all of the safety and control
devices provided for by the standards in force.
b
In case of prolonged user absence from the appliance, shut off the
main appliance gas supply valve.
b
Do not use the gas pipes as earthing for electrical appliances.
3.7 Water connection
Connect the appliance to the water mains and insert a water isolation valve
upstream of the appliance (available on request).
Looking at the appliance head on, the cold water inlet is to the right and the
hot water outlet to the left.
b
The domestic hot water circuit does not require the safety valve, but
you need to make sure that the pressure of the water pipes does not
exceed 6 bar. If you are not sure, install a pressure reducer.
b
Use only metal connection pipes and valves as the boiler is provided
with a wire-wound heating element for protection against freezing
that could damage non-metallic materials.
b
Ensure
t
hat the water system pipes are not used as earthing for your
electrical or telephone system. They are in no way designed for this pur-
pose. Using them in this way may cause serious damage to the pipes
and the appliance itself in a short space of time.
3.8 Antifreeze system
The appliance is provided as standard with an automatic freeze protection
system that protects the domestic hot water circuit from freezing in case of
ambient temperatures lower than -3° up to -10° (11-13 litres) or up to -7°C
(17 litres).
b
To be able to use this protection, activated through powered wire-
wound heating elements, it is necessary to have power supply. This
protection will not be active in case of no power supply.
The freeze
protection is also active with appliance in stand-by mode.
3.9 Gas conversion
Converting gas from one form to another can be done easily, even with the
appliance already installed.
b
This shoul
d be done exclusively by professionals qualified and
authorised according to the regulations in force.
The boiler is supplied to operate with methane gas (G20) or LPG (G30/
G31), according to the indications on the product data plate.
The appliance can be converted from one type of gas to another using one
of the specific kits provided on request.
- methane conversion kit
- LPG conversion kit.
