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
Handling
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 at least 2100 mm.
The boiler weight is 161 kg (19 kW) to 165 kg (26 kW) (dry).
Preparing the boiler for 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.

2. Prepare the connections on the DHW
side. Install the safety assembly
(accessory or on-site provision) in
accordance with
the Water Fittings Regulations 1999 in
the cold water line (see page 10).
Recommendation:
Install the safety valve above the
DHW cylinder to protect it against
contamination, scaling and high tem-
peratures.
Connect the drain hose to the con-
densate collector. Remove plug from
condensate collector.
3. Prepare the solar connections.
4. 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.
5. Prepare the gas connection accord-
ing to TRGI or TRF or all local regu-
lations.
6. Prepare the electrical connections.
■Power cable: NYM-J 3 x 1.5 mm2,
fuse max. 16 A, 230 V/50 Hz.
■ Accessory cables: NYM with the
required number of conductors for
the external connections.
■Allow all cables in area "M" (see
page 7) to protrude 2000 mm from
the wall.
