Vitodens 242-F, FB2A
Set up for operation with natural gas H.
For conversion to LPG P (without conversion kit), see page 30.
The Vitodens 242-F should generally only be delivered to those countries specified
on the type plate. For deliveries to alternative countries, an approved contractor, on
his own initiative, must arrange individual approval in accordance with the law of the
land.
Preparing for installation
Transport
If possible, leave the boiler on the pallet
during handling.
If space constraints make it necessary,
the boiler can be split for handling.
Installation instructions provided
!Please note
To prevent equipment damage,
never set the boiler down on
its front or side panels or apply
loads to these areas.
Installation
Required room height: min. 2100 mm and the boiler weight is 161 (19kW) to 165kg
(26kW) (dry).
Preparing the boiler installation
Use a connection set, available as an
accessory, to make the connection on
the gas and water sides. The following
overview shows sample connection sets
for installation on finished walls to the top
or side.
!Please note
To prevent equipment damage,
install all pipework free of load
and torque stresses.
Preparing the connections on site:

Note
The adjustable feet give all height meas-
urements a tolerance of +15 mm.
1. Prepare the heating water connec-
tions.
Flush the heating system thor-
oughly.
Note
Should an additional diaphragm
expansion vessel be required on site,
connect that vessel into the heating
return.
2. Prepare the DHW connections. Install
the safety assembly (accessory or on-
site provision) in accordance with
The Water Fittings Regulations 1999 in
the cold water line (see page 9).
Recommendation:
Install the safety valve above the DHW
cylinder to protect it against contami-
nation, scaling and high tempera-
tures.
Connect the drain hose to the conden-
sate collector. Remove plug from con-
densate collector.
3. Route condensate hose O to the
back (drain in wall K) or to the side
aperture L (see page 6).
Route condensate hose with a U-
bend and connect to on-site drain line
or siphon. Discharge pipes from
expansion valves (safety valve)
should not be connected directly to a
drain and should pass through a visi-
ble tundish, with a AUK3 air gap, and
be located adjacent to the device.

required number of conductors for
the external connections.
■Allow all cables in area "M" (see
page 7) to protrude 2000 mm from
the wall.
