1. GENERAL
1.1 Description of the
appliance
Construction of the water heater is in
accordance with the European standard
for gas heated water storage heaters for
sanitary application (EN89). The appliance
thus meets the European Directory for
Gas Appliances and is therefore entitled to
carry the CE-marking. It is an open ued
appliance without ventilator and with a ue
gas down draught safeguard, a Thermal
Reux Safeguard (TRS) (category
B11BS). The water heater is suitable for a
maximum working pressure of 8 bar. The
water heater tank is manufactured from
low carbon sheet steel and is glasslined on
the inside. In addition the tank is tted with
a magenesium anode as extra protection
against corrosion. A thick, CFC-free, PU
insulation layer covered in a steel jacket
reduces unnecessary heat loss. When the
appliance is lled with water it continuously
is under water pressure. As hot water is
drained from the tank, cold water is added
immediately. A ue bafe has been placed
in the ue tube to improve heat tranfer. The
ue gasses pass their heat on to the water
by means of radiation and convection. The
exhaust of the ue gasses is realized by
natural thermal draught (see gur 1).
Dead legs on a hot water installation are
undesireable. Where possible they should
be avoided. When the inclusion on the
system of a dead leg is unavoidable the
following restrictions should be applied:
- for pipes not eceeding 19 mm. inside
diameter; maximum length of dead leg
permitted 12 metres;
- for pipes exceeding19 mm. but not
exceeding 25 mm. inside diameter;
maximum lenght of dead leg 7,5 metres;
- for pipes with an inside diameter
exceeding 25 mm. maximum length of
dead leg 3 metres.

1.2 Technical safety
equipment
1.2.1 Gas control valve
The water heater is equipped with a gas
control wich regulates the ow of gas to
the burner. The gas block is equipped
with a safety valve, gas valve and burner
control (on a standard natural gas
setting). To ensure improved ignition the
gas control valve opening mechanism is
tted with a delay (softlite).
The gas control block is suitable for
gasses from the rst, second and third
gas family. The maximum inlet pressure
is 60 mbar.
The automatic incandescent ignition (hot
surface) ensures that the burner ignites
as soon as there is a demand for heat.
1.2.2 Control panel
Temperature control for the water heater
is housed in the control panel (See gur
2). For safety purposes, heaters are
always tted with two thermostats: a
control thermostat is adjustable between
40 °C and 80 °C and a safety thermostat
90 °C. The control panel is tted with
an ON/OFF switch (I/0). At setting
”I”, the gas control is activated on the
basis of heat demand from the control
thermostat. At setting ”0” the heater is
switched off.

1.2.3 Operationofthestorage
water heater.
Normal operation
When there is a demand for heat
a waiting period of about 1 second
elapses before the built-in spark
generator and pilot gas valve are
switched on. The ignition sparks ignite
the pilot burner and the resulting ame
is detected by the ionisation electrode.
Almost immediately after the pilot
ame is detected, sparking stops and
the main gas valve is openend. The
main burner is lit by the pilot ame.
The unit is now in operation. When the
temperature of the water in the unit
reaches the temperature that is set with
the thermostat, the thermostat switches
and disconnects the electrical heat
demand signal to the burner controller.
The gas valves are then closed.
Ignition failure
If the ame is not established within
the safety period the automatic ignition
controller locks out. The safety period is
about 25 seconds. Lock-out is indicated
by the lamp in the RESET-button on
the control panel. The unit has to be
manually reset by pushing the reset
button. If the ame is lost during normal
run, the automatic ignition controller
repeats the start sequence.
1.2.4 Combustion products
discharge safety device
The heater has been tted with a
combustion products discharge safety
device. It is the function of the safety
device to prevent ue gases from the
water heater entering the room where
the water heater has been placed,
instead of passing through the ue to
outside atmosphere. The gas supply
is disconnected as soon as the device
is activated by hot gases owing over
the sensor. After the cause of the re-
entry of ue gases has been traced the
device can be put back into operation
by pressing its reset button. If this
failure occurs frequently, this indicates
that the ue suffers from down draught
conditions. It is recommended that a
competent person carry out the necessary
remedial action.
Important
The combustion products discharge
safety device should never be put out
of operation. Re-entry of ue gases
to the building could be harmful and
cause poisoning or death.
