Cleaning the burner and heat exchanger
11.8.1 Cleaning the burner
If there is heavy contamination, the burner rod can be separated from
the mixture manifold and a blow gun with a long, angled blow pipe can be
used to blow them off from the inside and outside using a reasonable
amount of compressed air (max. 3 bar).
▶ Re-install the burner rod with a new gasket.
11.8.2 Cleaning the heat exchanger
DANGER:
Danger to life through escaping flue gas!
▶ During installation, look out for faulty gaskets and ensure they are
seated correctly. Replace faulty gaskets.
▶ Replace the gaskets as described (
Chapter 11.11.3, page 42).
▶ Dry and/or wet clean the heat exchanger.
▶ Shut down the heating system (
Chapter 9.1, page 30).
▶ Close the gas main shutoff valve or gas isolator.
▶ Allow floor standing boiler to cool down.
▶ Remove the front panels and corresponding side panels.
▶ Place the tundish that collects dirt and condensate residues under
the condensation catch pan.
▶ Pull the siphon [1] off the drainage connection of the condensation
catch pan [2] and out of the drain pipe. Turn slightly sideways in
doing so.

dirt trap can be lifted up and out of the drainage connection.
▶ Rinse the dirt trap and siphon under running water.
Boiler sizes 75-100 kW do not have a dirt trap and are equipped with a
cleaning pipe socket with cap instead of the cover
