2.4 - FILLING THE SYSTEM
After completing all the connections of the
system the heating circuit can be filled.
This filling operation must be performed
with care as follows:
- open the air vents of the radiators and
check that the automatic air vent in the
boiler is works properly;
- gradually open the water tap and check
operation of any automatic air vents
installed in the system;
- close the air vents on the radiators as
soon as water comes out;
- use the pressure gauge on the boiler to
check that the pressure has reached the
value of 0.8/1bar;
- close the water inlet tap and then release
the air again through the radiator air
vents;
- after switching on the boiler and after the
system has reached the correct
temperature, stop the pump and repeat
the air relief operations;
- let the system cool down and then adjust
the water pressure to 0.8/1 bar.
This must be performed when the system
is cold. Use the temperature and pressure
gauge on the boiler to read the pressure
value of the circuit.
WARNING
The minimum water pressure switch does
not give electrical impulse to the burner to
ignite when the pressure is lower than 0.4
bar. The pressure of the water in the C.H.
system must not be lower than 0.8/1bar; if
this value is lower use the water filling tap
on the boiler to adjust the pressure.
This must be performed when the system
is cold. Use the temperature and pressure
gauge on the boiler to read the pressure
value of the circuit.

- there are no gas leaks;
- the external mains switch is on;
- the boiler’s safety valve is not locked;
- there are no water leaks.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
To switch on and off the boiler follow the
indications in the “
Users’ Instructions
”.
- the supply voltage of the boiler is 230 V-
50 Hz;
- the system is correctly filled with water
(pressure at the gauge 0.8/1 bar);
- any gate valves of the system are open;
- the mains gas corresponds to that with
which the boiler has been adjusted;
otherwise convert the boiler to use the
gas available on site (see:
“MODIFICATION FOR OTHER GASES “):
this operation must be performed
by qualified technicians;
- the gas supply taps are open;
2.5 - STARTING THE
BOILER
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before starting the boiler check that:
- the boiler installation has been made in
accordance with all the applicable
regulations concerning water and gas
installation, smoke evacuation and
electrical installation
- the flue gas exhaust duct and its
terminal are installed correctly:
when
the boiler is switched on there
must be no leakage of any
combustion products from any
seals;
