• Two 1.5 V batteries type R

•Heaterdocumentation.

2.4 Description of the heater

Operating convenience, as the heater is ready to operate

by simply pressing a switch.

• Heater for wall-mounting,

• Ignition by electronic device triggered when the water

valve opens,

• Great savings in comparison with conventional

heaters, due to the possibility of power adjustment

and no permanent pilot flame,

• Natural gas/LPG burner,

• Semi-permanent pilot burner which only functions

during the period between the opening of the water

valve and the ignition of the main burner,

• Heat exchanger in copper without tin/lead covering,

• Water valve in fibreglass-reinforced polyamide, 100%

recyclable,

• Automatic adjustment of the water flow by means of

a device which permits a constant flow to be

maintained in spite of variable pressure supplies,

• Gas flow adjustment proportional to the water flow to

maintain a constant high temperature.

•Safetydevices:

– Ionisation probe to check for accidental extinction

of the burner flame,

– Flue gas safety device which turns off the heater in

case of inadequate combusted gas evacuation

conditions,

– Temperature limiter which prevents overheating of

the heat exchanger.

2.10 Function

This gas heater is equipped with automatic electronic

ignition which simplifies its operation.

BTo do so, just turn on the switch (ÆFig. 6).

After this procedure, automatic ignition occurs

whenever a hot water tap is opened. First, the pilot

burner is lit and approximately four seconds afterwards

the main burner. The pilot burner flame is then

extinguished after a short period of time.

This is a way of saving a great amount of energy as the

pilot burner only operates for the minimum necessary

time to ignite the main burner, in contrast to

conventional systems which operate permanently.

If this happens:

BClose and open the hot water tap to repeat the

ignition process until all the air has been purged.

Air in the gas supply pipe when the heater is

started up may cause ignition to fail.
