3.10 - CONDENSATE DRAIN
During the combustion process the boiler produces condensate
which, through the “A” pipe, flows into the siphon.
The condensate which forms inside the boiler has to be routed
into an adequate drain by means of the pipe “B”.
DANGER!
Before commissioning the appliance fill the
siphon and check the correct drainage of the
condensate.
If the appliance is used with the condensate
drain siphon empty there could be danger
of intoxication resulting from the escape of
flue gasses.
The connection between the appliance and the sewage system
must be carried out in compliance with the specific reference
standards, and in particular:
- prevent the end user utilizing the condensate produced;
- a siphon must be fitted (supplied with the boiler);
- there must be no bottlenecks;
- the connection must be made just under the bottom part of
the boiler;
- it must be installed so as to avoid freezing of the liquid when
the boiler is operating and prevent the eventual pressuriza-
tion of the sewage system;
- consent the correct downflow of the appliance’s liquid di-
scharges;
- it must be made with one of the following materials which
are resistant to condensate:
- Grès, according to the Standards DIN 1230-1 and 6, EN
295-1 or 2 or 3;
- Glass (boron silicate);
- Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) , according to DIN V 19534-1 and
2, and DIN 19538;
- Polyethylene (PE) DH type, according to DIN 19535-1 and
2 and DIN 19537-1 and 2;
- Polypropylene (PP) and copolymer styrene (ABS) accor-
ding to DIN V 19561;
- Polyesterific resin (GF-UP), according to DIN 19565-1;
- Stainless steel.
