2.0 Operating the Boiler

2.1 Operating the Boiler

1. Hinge the lower door panel down (Fig. 1).

2. Turn on the main gas and electricity supplies to

the appliance.

3. Set the boiler thermostat control knob to the

required setting (Fig. 2). (The optimum boiler

setting depends upon type of system, external

controls and your requirements. Your installer will

be able to advise you on this matter.)

4. The fan will start to run and after a short period,

the ignition spark will commence. Sparking will

continue until the flame is established. Check that

both the Mains ON light and Boiler ON light are on.

Mains ON is indicated by green and Boiler ON by

yellow (Fig. 3).

5. Flashing Mains ON light indicates that there is a

mains electrical supply to the boiler, but the control

knob is in the OFF position. Turn the control knob

on and ignition will start.

2.2 To shut down the Boiler

1. Turn off the electricity supply to the appliance at

the mains.

2. Turn the boiler thermostat control knob to OFF

““(Fig. 2), then turn off the gas supply at the

appliance gas tap.

2.3 Frost Protection

1. The boiler does not have integral frost

protection. It is recommended that the installer fits

a suitable protection device to the system controls

if required. For frost protection the boiler must be

turned on.

2.4 Central Heating System Pressure

1. The water pressure in the central heating

system is indicated by the pressure gauge.

2. The normal operating pressure is the range

between 1 and 2·5 (Fig. 4).

3. A pressure of 3 or greater indicates a fault. The

safety pressure relief valve will operate, at a

pressure of 3 (Fig. 5). It is important that your

Service Engineer is contacted as soon as possible.

4. The MINIMUM pressure for correct operation

is 1. If the pressure falls below 1, this may indicate

a leak on the central heating system (Fig. 6).

5. The system must be re-pressurised by your

Service Engineer.

2.5 In Operation

1. The Promax System HE is a high efficiency

“condensing boiler”. In common with other

condensing boilers its exceptional efficiency means

the flue gases are cooled to such an extent that

steam is often visible at the outside flue terminal.

The amount produced depends on system design,

product use and outside air temperature but it is

not harmful to the individual or the working of the

appliance in any way.

cooled sufficiently.

6. If the lockout indicator light is permanently

illuminated, follow these instructions.

7. Check that the gas supply to the appliance has

not been inadvertently turned off.

8. Check the condensate drain outlet has not

been blocked.

4.0 Clearances

4.1 Clearances around the Boiler

(Figs. 10 & 11)

1. The minimum clear spaces needed around

the boiler are:

Top - 200mm

Bottom - 200mm

Both sides - 5mm

Front - 500mm (For Servicing)

- 5mm (In Operation)

2. The boiler may be installed in an unventilated

cupboard or compartment if the following

minimum clearances are maintained:

completely sealed from the room in which it is

fitted. Products from the combustion of gas are

vented to the outside through the flue terminal

which must be kept free from obstruction as this

would interfere with the correct operation of the

boiler.
