Safety instructions for working on the system

Working on the system

■Where gas is used as the fuel, close the main gas

shut-off valve and safeguard it against unintentional

reopening.

■Isolate the system from the power supply, e.g. by

removing the separate fuse or by means of a mains

isolator, and check that it is no longer live.

■Safeguard the system against reconnection.

■Wear suitable personal protective equipment when

carrying out any work.

Danger

Hot surfaces and fluids can lead to burns or

scalding.

■Before maintenance and service work, switch

OFF the appliance and let it cool down.

■Never touch hot surfaces on the boiler, burner,

flue system or pipework.

!Please note

Electronic assemblies can be damaged by elec-

trostatic discharge.

Prior to commencing work, touch earthed

objects such as heating or water pipes to dis-

charge static loads.

Repair work

!Please note

Repairing components that fulfil a safety func-

tion can compromise the safe operation of the

system.

Replace faulty components only with genuine

Viessmann spare parts.

Safety instructions

5692818

Auxiliary components, spare and wearing parts

!Please note

Spare and wearing parts that have not been tes-

ted together with the system can compromise its

function. Installing non-authorised components

and making non-approved modifications or con-

versions can compromise safety and may inva-

lidate our warranty.

For replacements, use only original spare parts

supplied or approved by Viessmann.

Safety instructions for operating the system

If you smell gas

Danger

Escaping gas can lead to explosions which may

result in serious injury.

■Do not smoke. Prevent naked flames and

sparks. Never switch lights or electrical appli-

ances on or off.

■Close the gas shut-off valve.

■Open windows and doors.

■Evacuate any people from the danger zone.

■Notify your gas or electricity supply utility from

outside the building.

■Have the power supply to the building shut off

from a safe place (outside the building).

If you smell flue gas

Danger

Flue gas can lead to life threatening poisoning.

■Shut down the heating system.

■Ventilate the installation site.

■Close doors to living spaces to prevent flue

gases from spreading.

What to do if water escapes from the appliance

Danger

If water escapes from the appliance there is a

risk of electrocution.

Switch OFF the heating system at the external

isolator (e.g. fuse box, domestic distribution

board).

Danger

If water escapes from the appliance there is a

risk of scalding.

Never touch hot heating water.

Condensate

Danger

Contact with condensate can be harmful to

health.

Never let condensate touch your skin or eyes

and do not swallow it.

Flue systems and combustion air

Ensure that flue systems are clear and cannot be

sealed, for instance due to accumulation of conden-

sate or other external causes.

Avoid continuous condensate disposal with a wind pro-

tector.

Ensure an adequate supply of combustion air.

Inform system users that subsequent modifications to

the building characteristics are not permissible (e.g.

cable/pipework routing, cladding or partitions).

Danger

Leaking or blocked flue systems, or an inade-

quate supply of combustion air can cause life

threatening poisoning from carbon monoxide in

the flue gas.

Ensure the flue system is in good working order.

Vents for supplying combustion air must be non-

sealable.

Extractors

Operating appliances that exhaust air to the outside

(extractor hoods, extractors, air conditioning units, etc.)

can create negative pressure. If the boiler is operated

at the same time, this can lead to a reverse flow of flue

gas.

Danger

The simultaneous operation of the boiler and

appliances that exhausts air to the outside can

result in life threatening poisoning due to a

reverse flow of flue gas.

Fit an interlock circuit or take suitable steps to

ensure an adequate supply of combustion air.

Intended use

The appliance is only intended to be installed and

operated in sealed unvented heating systems that

comply with EN 12828, with due attention paid to the

associated installation, service and operating instruc-

tions as well as the details in the datasheet.

It is only designed for the heating up of heating water.

Commercial or industrial usage for a purpose other

than the heating up of heating water shall be deemed

inappropriate.

Intended use presupposes that a fixed installation in

conjunction with permissible components designed for

this purpose has been carried out.

Every other use will be deemed to be inappropriate.

Any resulting losses are excluded from the manufac-

turer's liability.

Any usage beyond this must be approved by the man-

ufacturer for the individual case.

Intended use also includes the adherence to mainte-

nance and inspection intervals.

Commissioning, inspection, maintenance

Steps - commissioning, inspection and maintenance

5692818

Operating and service instructions for the control

unit and the burner

01. Check that the internal pipes are fully inserted into

the hot gas flues; open the boiler door for this. See

chapter "Inserting the internal pipes", page 11.

02. Check that the ventilation air aperture in the instal-

lation room is open.

03. Fill the heating system with water and vent the

system.

Permissible operating pressure: 4 bar (0.4 MPa)

!Please note

Unsuitable water quality can damage the

boiler body.

Operate boilers only with softened water.

Observe the instructions in chapter "Water

quality requirements". See page 22.

04. Enter the amount of fill water and water hardness

into the water quality table in the appendix on

page 25.

05. Check the system pressure.

06. Check the oil level or the gas supply pressure.

07. Open the flue gas damper (if installed).

08. Check that the cleaning aperture on the flue outlet

is closed.

09. Open the shut-off valves in the oil or gas line.

10. Switch ON the mains isolator, the switch for the

heating circuit pump and the burner ON/OFF

switch, in that order. Observe the burner manufac-

turer’s operating instructions.

11. The dew point range must be cleared as quickly

as possible. To do so, prevent any heat supply to

the consumers when heating the system from

cold. This also applies when restarting after main-

tenance and cleaning work.

!Please note

During boiler heat-up, unpleasant fumes

and odours can result from outgassing from

the thermal insulation, the thermal block and

the paint.

Ventilate the room during commissioning.

12. Once the flow temperature has been reached,

successively switch on the heat consumers.

Switch the burner over to automatic mode.

!Please note

When checking CO levels in the flue gas,

internal outgassing from the thermal block

can result in higher values.

Continue to operate the boiler until a decline

can be clearly recognised.

13. Check all gaskets and plugs, and retighten if nec-

essary.

14. Check the boiler door and cleaning cover after

approx. 50 hours run. Tighten the screws.

Shutting down the system

Danger

Opening the connections on the heating water

side whilst the boiler is under pressure can

result in injuries.

First depressurise the boiler.

Only drain the boiler with a suction pump when

the air vent valve is open.

Closing the Vitoair draught stabiliser (if installed)

1. Start the burner. 2. With the pre-purge running, shut down the system.

The control disk will then be closed.

Opening the boiler door and cleaning cover

Note

On gas burners, disconnect the gas supply pipe.

3. Remove combustion residues from the flue pipe

and the flue outlet through cleaning aperture E in

the flue outlet using a vacuum cleaner.

Checking all gaskets and packing cords on the flue gas side

Danger

Leaks can result in a risk of poisoning through

escaping gas.

Check gaskets carefully.

Checking the thermal insulation components on the boiler door

If work needs to be carried out on the thermal insula-

tion, observe the following:

Danger

When working with high temperature insulating

materials that contain zirconium or aluminium

silicate ceramic fibres, fibre dust may develop.

This fibre dust can be harmful to health.

Only trained personnel may adjust or replace

the insulation. Wear suitable protective clothing,

especially breathing equipment and safety gog-

gles.
