INTRODUCTION The Vokera Compact range of appliances are combined central heating and domestic hot water boilers, which by design incorporates full sequence electronic ignition, circulating pump, expansion vessel, safety valve, pressure gauge, automatic by-pass, and mechanical time clock. Compact is produced as a room sealed appliance, suitable for wall mounting applications only. Compact is provided with a fan powered flue outlet with an annular co-axial combustion air intake that can be rotated horizontally through 360 degrees for various horizontal or vertical applications, and can also be converted for use with a rear flue outlet. Compact can also be used with the Vokera twin flue system. This appliance is designed primarily for use with sealed systems; consequently it is not intended for use on an open vented system. 1 2 Fig.1 General Layout 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 85 35 150 95 150 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 1 Flue Analysis Test Point 2 Pressure Tube Negative 3 Fan Assembly 4 Heat Exchanger 5 Secondary thermistor 6 Combustion chamber 7 Burner 8 Expansion vessel 9 Water pressure switch 10 Domestic Hot Water Flow Switch 11 Gas Valve 12 Timeclock 13 CH position 14 Fault indicator led 15 Mode selector switch 16 DHW position 17 Pressure gauge 18 Safety valve 19 Pump 20 Auto air vent 21 Electrode 22 High limit thermistor 23 Primary thermistor 24 Air chamber (with cover removed) 25 Air pressure switch 26 Auto by pass (fig. 2) 27 Water flow restrictor (fig. 2) Fig. 1 Compact 1

SECTION 1 DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND OPERATING SEQUENCE 1.1 PRINCIPLE COMPONENTS A fully integrated, electronic control board featuring mode selection switch, full sequenceelectronic ignition, temperature control system, and appliance status indicator. A BI-thermal gas to water heat exchanger. A multi-functional gas valve. Two-stage, primary water pressure switch. Integral pump, expansion vessel, pressure relief valve, pressure gauge, domestic water flow switch, fan, differential air pressure switch, and time clock. MODES OF OPERATION 1.2 CENTRAL HEATING MODE When there is a request for central heating via the time-clock and/or any external controls, the pump and fan are started, the fan proves the differential air pressure switch which in-turn, allows an ignition sequence to begin. Ignition is sensed by the electronic circuitry to ensure flame stability at the burner. Once successful ignition has been achieved the appliance operates al 75% of maximum for a fifteen-minute period, and thereafter the appliance operates on maximum output until the desired temperature setting is reached. 8 4 23 27 5 Once the desired temperature is reached, the burner will modulate to maintain that temperature, however should the temperature within the appliance continue to rise, the burner will shut down and the boiler will perform a three-minute anti-cycle (timer delay). 1.3 HOT WATER MODE When there is a demand for domestic hot water the domestic hot water flow switch is proved by the flow of water through the appliance, this allows the fan to run, the fan proves the differential air pressure switch which in-turn, allows an ignition sequence to begin. Ignition is sensed by the electronic circuitry to ensure flame stability at the burner. Once successful ignition has been achieved the appliance will modulate burner gas pressure to maintain the desired water temperature, should the temperature of the domestic hot water exceed the temperature setting by 5 ºC the burner will shut down until the water temperature drops below the required setting. 1.4 SAFETY DEVICES In both central heating and domestic hot water modes, safe operation is ensured by. A water pressure switch that monitors the system pressure and will deactivate the pump and prevent burner ignition should the pressure or primary flow rate fall below the rated tolerance. Differential air pressure switch that checks the correct operation of the fan and flue thereby preventing or interrupting burner operation. A high limit thermostat that overrides the control circuit to prevent or interrupt burner ignition. A safety valve which releases excess pressure from the primary circuit. 20 19 18 26 9 10 1.5 FROST PROTECTION The appliance has built-in frost protection that allows the pump to operate if the appliance temperature drops to 7 ºC, should the temperature continue to drop the burner will light until the primary circuit temperature exceeds 30 ºC. return flow hw outlet cold inlet Fig. 2 2 Compact
