6 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION INSIEME CONDENS boilers are high efficiency, oil fuelled condensing boilers. B models are designed for heating only. BK models come with a 0 litre vitrified storage cylinder and are designed for combined heating and domestic hot water production. These boilers may be used as type C boilers if fitted with a specific accessory kit to extend the comburent air inlet to draw in air from outside the room where they are installed. The single stage jet burner is fitted with a fuel oil pre-heater to ensure dependable functioning under all conditions. The most important technical features of these boilers are: - The combustion chamber and heat exchange system are specially designed and shaped to achieve the best possible volume to surface area ratio. - The primary heat exchanger features vitrified steel pipes and wave turbulators to recover and transfer a large proportion of the thermal energy carried by the combustion fumes. - The secondary heat exchanger is made from AISI 90L stainless steel and recovers latent heat from the flue gases, boosting efficiency to up to 0. % (50 C 0 C range). - The horizontal vitrified storage cylinder incorporates a vertical primary heat exchanger coil. The exclusively designed heat exchange unit and secondary exchanger are insulated by ultra-efficient high density glass wool. The controls and safety devices of the electromechanical control panel conform to all applicable technical and safety standards. A specific accessory kit is available to control a high temperature central heating circuit. Additional controllers can also be added to manage additional direct/mixed circuits or to integrate the boiler with r solar water heating systems. SAFETY DEVICES INSIEME CONDENS boilers are equipped with the following safety devices: - A safety thermostat that forces the boiler to perform a safety shutdown if temperature exceeds the safety threshold (0 C). - A flue gas thermostat in the bottom of the secondary heat exchanger that signals an error if flue gas temperature exceeds 90 C. - A burner safety system: The oil burner is equipped with an electronic controller that monitors the correct functioning of the selected program. In the event of an error, this controller displays a burner lockout signal on the control panel. b The intervention of a safety device indicates a potentially dangerous malfunction in the system, and means that you must contact r s Technical Assistance Service immediately. You may attempt to restart the boiler after a short delay (see preparing for initial start-up). a Never start the boiler up even for a short period if the safety devices are not functioning correctly or have been tampered with. b Safety devices must only be replaced by r s Technical Assistance Service using original spare parts. Refer to the spare parts catalogue supplied with the boiler. Always check that the boiler is functioning correctly after any repairs. GENERAL

21 PLACE OF INSTALLATION r INSIEME CONDENS boilers must be installed in rooms with suitably dimensioned ventilation grilles in conformity to applicable technical standards. b When installing the boiler, allow sufficient space around it to access all safety and control devices and to permit easy maintenance. a These boilers must be installed indoors. They are not designed for outside use. b Make sure that the boiler s index of electrical protection is adequate for the characteristics of the room where it is to be installed. INSTALLATION IN OLDER SYSTEMS AND SYSTEMS REQUIRING MODERNISATION When installing these boilers in old systems or systems requiring modernisation, always perform the following checks: - Make sure that the flue is able to withstand the temperature of the combustion gases and that it has been designed and made in compliance with applicable standards. The flue must also be as straight as possible, sealed, insulated and not blocked or choked. - Make sure that the flue is fitted with a condensation drainage union. - Make sure that the electrical system has been installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with applicable standards. - Make sure that flow rate, head and direction of flow of the pumps are suitable and correct. - Make sure that the fuel feed line and any storage tank are made and installed in compliance with applicable standards. - Make sure that expansion vessels are big enough to contain the additional volume generated by thermal expansion. - Make sure that the central heating circuit has been flushed out to remove all sludge and lime scale, and that it has been bled and seal tested. - Make sure that a suitable water treatment system is installed. (See the Water in central heating systems section.) Refer to the r catalogue for details of specific products. b The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage caused by incorrectly constructed flue systems. b Flue pipes for condensing boilers must be made from special materials, different from those used for standard non-condensing boiler flues. HEATING CIRCUIT WATER INTRODUCTION Water used in central heating systems MUST be suitably treated to ensure the correct functioning of those systems and to guarantee an extended working life for boilers and all other system components. This applies not only to existing systems but to newly installed systems too. Sludge, limescale and other contaminants in water can cause irreversible damage to boilers even in relatively short times, and despite the use of top quality materials in their manufacture. Contact RIELLO s Technical Assistance Service for further information on water additives and their use. b Always conform to the standards and legislation applicable in the country of installation. INSTALLER

22 WATER IN CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS: INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DESIGN, INSTALLATION AND MANAGEMENT OF CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS. Chemical and physical characteristics of water The chemical and physical characteristics of water used in central heating systems must conform to the requirements of EN 88 standard and to the following tables: STEEL BOILERS with furnace power < 50 kw Water used for first filling Water with system operating (*) ph -8 7,5-9,5 Hardness fh < 0 < 0 Electrical conductivity μs/cm < 50 Chlorides mg/l < 0 Sulphides mg/l < 0 Nitrides mg/l < 0 Iron mg/l < 0,5 STEEL BOILERS with furnace power > 50 kw Water used for first filling Water with system operating (*) ph -8 7,5-9,5 Hardness fh < 5 < 5 Electrical conductivity μs/cm < 00 Chlorides mg/l < 0 Sulphides mg/l < 0 Nitrides mg/l < 0 Iron mg/l < 0,5 (*) values for water in system after 8 weeks of functioning General note on water used to top up systems: - If softened water is used to top up a system, 8 weeks of functioning after topping up, verify that the water in the system respects the above limits, in particular for electrical conductivity. - This check is not necessary if demineralised water is used to top up the system.. Central heating systems b Do not use automatic filling devices to add water to central heating systems. Use a manual device instead and record top-ups in the system service book. b If a system comprises a number of boilers, when that system is first put into service, make sure that all the boilers function simultaneously or on a short interval rotation basis in order to evenly distribute initial limescale deposits. b When you finish installing a system, always flush it out to remove installation residues. b Water used to fill a system for the first time and water used to top it up must always be filtered (using synthetic or metal mesh filters with a filtration rating of no less than 50 microns) to prevent sludge from forming and triggering deposit corrosion. b Before re-filling an existing system, clean and flush it out thoroughly. Only fill the boiler after the central heating circuit has been thoroughly flushed out.. New central heating systems Initial filling of the system must be performed slowly. In theory, once filled and bled of all air, a heating circuit should not need topping up. Systems should also be operated at maximum working temperature the first time they are started up, in order to facilitate de-aeration. (Gas is not released from the water at low temperatures.) INSTALLER

23 . Reconditioning old central heating systems If a boiler has to be replaced, do not refill the entire central heating circuit if the quality of water in it conforms to requirements. If the quality of water fails to conform to requirements, either recondition the old water or separate the water circuits (water in the boiler circuit must conform to requirements).. Corrosion. Deposit corrosion Deposit corrosion is an electro-chemical phenomenon caused by the presence of foreign bodies (sand, rust, etc.) in the water mass. These solid substances generally form deposits (sludge) in the bottom of the boiler, in the tube heads and in the joins of tube bundles. These parts of the boiler can therefore be affected by micro-corrosion caused by the electrochemical potential difference created between the metal parts in contact with impurities and other metal parts around them.. Stray current corrosion Stray current corrosion is caused by the different electrical potentials of the water in the boiler and the metal body of the boiler or piping. Stray current corrosion is easily identified by the regular tiny conical holes it leaves. b All metallic parts should be grounded by an efficient earth cable for this reason.. Eliminating air and gas from central heating systems If oxygen enters a circuit continuously or even intermittently (e.g. in under-floor heating systems whose pipes are not protected by impermeable synthetic sheaths, in circuits with open expansion vessels, or in circuits that require frequent top-ups) always separate the boiler s water circuit from the central heating circuit. Mistakes to avoid and precautions From what has been said above we can see that it is essential to avoid two main factors that could lead to corrosion. These are contact between system water and air and the continuous addition of fresh water to the circuit. To eliminate contact between system water and the air (thus avoiding oxygenation of the system water), we need to: - ensure that the expansion vessel is a closed vessel, and of the correct size and pre-charge pressure (the pressure to be checked periodically); - ensure that the system is always kept at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure at all points (including the pump suction side) and under all operating conditions (precisely because the seals, gaskets and joins in a water circuit are designed to resist pressure from within, but not to resist a vacuum within); - ensure that no part of the system is made from materials that are permeable to gases (e.g. plastic pipes with no oxygen barrier destined for under-floor heating systems). b Finally, never forget that boiler failures caused by encrustation and corrosion are not covered under the terms of the warranty.

30 FUEL CONNECTIONS r INSIEME CONDENS boilers have their fuel connections at the rear. Fuel supply hoses must pass through the gap between the boiler base and the floor before being connected to the fuel pump. H (*) max. m If the oil feed system is in negative pressure, the return line must reach the same height as the suction line. This avoids having to install a bottom valve, which would be essential if the return hose were to reach above the level of the fuel. H b The installer must ensure that negative pressure in the oil feed never exceeds 0. bar (0 cm Hg). If this value is exceeded, the fuel oil will release gas. Make sure that the oil hoses are perfectly oil-tight. b Clean out the oil tank at suitable intervals. b The oil feed line must be suitable for the flow rate demanded by the burner. The oil feed system must also be equipped with all the necessary safety and control devices required by applicable legislation and standards. Refer to the table alongside for oil feed line characteristics. b A filter must be installed in the oil feed line. b Make sure that the oil return line is not kinked or blocked before starting up the boiler. Excessive backpressure can lead to breakage of the pump seal. Priming the pump To prime the oil pump simply start up the burner and check for a flame. If the burner enters lockout before any fuel reaches it, wait at least 0 seconds then press the remote burner reset button on the control panel and repeat the ignition procedure until the flame lights.
