1. System Parameters
System Water Content - Vs = litres
System Anti-freeze Content - ra = %
Maximum System Working Pressure - P
w
= bar
Maximum Static Head -
P
h
= metres
If the system volume is not known then the following rule of thumb can be applied:
System water content = Boiler power (KW) X 10
2. Expansion Vessel Volume Calculation, Vv-
(ra + 81.5) x Vs ( + 81.5 ) x
Vv = = Vv = litres

If the system is to be set up using the factory preset alarm levels for the Chesil unit then no other
calculations are necessary. The factory preset levels are:
Cold Fill Pressure Switching Level, P
f
= 1.8 bar
Hi Pressure Alarm Level, P
hi
= 3.6 bar
Lo Pressure Alarm Level, P
lo
= 1.3 bar
The safety valve lift pressure should be set 0.35 bar above the Hi pressure alarm level.
