Notes:
(1) All mCHP BoilerMate
A-CLASS
models are fitted with a 6kW electric backup system i.e. ‘Switch’ which is used to boost the
heat in the store if the output from the mCHP unit is not sufficient in extreme demand conditions, The ‘switch’ is also used
to provide backup heating and hot water in the rare event the mCHP unit fails.
(2) The hot water allowance used for adding to the design heat loss of the dwelling (BS6700) for sizing the thermal rating
of the mCHP unit.
(3) Based on the average store charge temperature of 77ºC and mains cold water inlet temperature of 10ºC
(4) Heat losses measured at 55K steady temperature difference as specified in the WMA Specification for Thermal Stores
(5) 6kW ‘Switch’ is integrated in the mCHP BoilerMate
A-CLASS
control system. Therefore electricity supply to the appliance
via the two pole isolator must be rated at 6.5kW at 230V ac, 50Hz. it assumed that the mCHP unit is supplied via separate
isolator and boilerMate only provides the control signal.
(6) mCHP unit takes its power from an independent circuit via its own isolator.
