2.2.2 Outdoors

“MURELLE EQUIPE 220-330-440-550 BOX” heat modules can also be installed outdoors with the specific exhaust for sin-gle module code 8089530.

2.3 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

The heating system should be flushed prior to the connection of the heating modules. The system should be treated in accord-ance with BS 7593. Sime Ltd recommend only the use of Fernox products for the flushing and final treatment of the system water. This is particularly important in hard water areas.It is recommended that the inhibitor con-centration is checked at installation, system modification and at every service in accord-ance with the manufacturers instructions. Test kits are available from inhibitor stock-ist.WARNING: Failure to clean the heat sys-tem or add an adequate inhibitor invali-dates the device’s warranty.Gas connections must be made in accord-ance with current standards and regula-

tions. When dimensioning gas pipes from the meter to the module, both capacity vol-ume (consumption) in m3/h and gas den-sity must be taken into account. System pipe sections must be able to guar-antee sufficient supply to cover maximum demand, limiting pressure loss between the meter and any utility device no greater than 1.0 mbar for second family gas (natural gas). A sticker inside the module includes iden-tification and gas type data specific to the module.

2.3.1 Condensation drain connection

The condensate drain must be connected to the civil drain by a pipe with minimum 5 mm per meter gradient for condensation collection.

Only stainless steel or plastic pipes are suitable to convey condensate.

2.3.2 Filter on the gas pipe

The gas valve on each generator is supplied ex factory with an inlet filter, which, however, is not adequate to entrap all the impurities in the gas or in gas main pipes. To prevent malfunctioning of the valve, or

Fig. 5

12

in certain cases even to cut out the safety device with which the valve is equipped, install an adequate filter on the gas pipe.

2.5 FILLING THE SYSTEM

Cold system filling pressure must be 1 bar. The system must be filled slowly so that air bubbles are released through the specific escapes.

2.6 EXHAUST FOR OUTDOOR INSTALLATION (fig. 5)

The exhaust terminal for single module code 8089530 is required for this type of installation.

For separately supplied accessory assem-bly see fig. 5.

2.7 INDOOR INSTALLATION EXHAUST KIT (fig. 6 - 6/a - 6/b)

Refer to fig. 6 and 6/a-b for this type of installation. The indicated solutions have the exhaust manifold (available separately) positioned on the module’s to right. It is however possible to move the exhaust of the left by simply rotating the manifold 180°. NOTE: The kits are purposely treated also

2.9 RS-485 BOARD (fig. 8)

Each generator is supplied with the RS- 485 board which allows you to manage the boilers in sequence/cascade (see fig 8). The board is placed on the back of the con-trol panel.

2.9.1 MODBUS mode (fig. 8/a)

This mode allows for MODBUS communica-tion of at least two boilers in cascade and is performed by requesting another RS-485 board provided in the kit code 8092244.

ATTENTION: Communication will occur only with the MASTER generator, (gen-erator with PAR 15 = 0), interpreting the cascade as a single heat capacity generator: P CASCADE = P GENERATOR x No. GENERATORS.

To install the second board, proceed as follows:

- Remove the cover and electrically con-nect the second RS-485 board equipped with lid to the RS-485 board already installed in the MASTER boiler (boiler with PAR 15 = 0) with the wired connector provided in the kit.

CAUTION: Insert the wired connector with caution.

- Set the DIP SWITCH of the new board in MODBUS mode.

- Close the lid of the second board.

- Choose the communication configuration suited to the MODBUS network (PAR 17 INST) according to Table PAR 17 INST.

3.4 EXTERNAL SENSOR (fig. 13)

If there is an external sensor, the heating settings SET can be taken from the climatic curves according to the external tempera-ture and, in any case, limited to with the range values described in point 3.3 (param-eters PAR 22 for zone 1, PAR 25 for zone 2 and PAR 28 for zone 3). The climatic curve to be set can be selected from a value of 3 and 40 (at step 1). Increasing the steepness of the curves of fig. 13 will increase the output temperature as the external temperature decreases.

3.5 CARD FUNCTIONING

The electronic card has the following functions:– Antifreeze protection of the heating

and sanitary water circuits (ICE).– Ignition and flame detection system.– Control panel setting for the power and

the gas for boiler functioning.– Anti-jamming for the pump which is fed

for a few seconds after 24 hours of inactivity.

– Antifreeze protection for boilers with an accumulation boiling unit.

– Chimney sweep function which can be activated from the control panel.

– Temperature which can be shifted with the external sensor connected.

It can be set from the control panel and is active on the heating systems of both circuit 1 and circuit 2 and 3.

– Management of 3 independent heating circuit systems.

– Automatic regulation of the ignition power and maximum heating.

Adjustments are managed automati-cally by the electronic card to guar-antee maximum flexibility in use of the system.

– Interface with the following electronic systems: climatic regulator CR 53, remote control CR 73, thermal regula-tor RVS, connected to a management card of a MIXED ZONE code 8092234, card solar INSOL code 8092235 and to board RS-485 for managing up to 8 boilers in cascade or implement a communication type Modbus (slave RTU-RS485, Reference Guide PI-MBUS-300 Rev. J) code 8092243.

NOTE: If using CR 53 set parameter 10 to 2 (PAR 10 = 2).

3.6 TEMPERATURE DETECTION SENSOR

Table 4 shows the resistance values of the heating, DHW and exhaust fumes thermis-tors.

If the heating flow sensor (SM), heating return sensor (SR) or the exhaust fumes sensor (SF) is faulty or open circuit, the generator will not function.

3.7 ELECTRONIC IGNITION

Ignition and flame detection is control-led by electrodes on the burner which guarantees reaction in the case of acci-dental extinction or lack of gas within one second.

3.7.1 Functioning cycle

Burner ignition should occur within max.

10 seconds after the opening of the gas valve. Ignition failure with consequent acti-vation of block can be due to:

– Lack of gas The ignition electrode persists in dis-

charging for max. 10 seconds. If after 3 attempts to light the ignition is not detected the generator will lockout.

This can happen the first time the boiler is switched on after a long period of inactivity due to the presence of air in the gas pipes

– No Ionisation The boiler will make three attempts

to light. If after the third attempt the flame has no been recognised, the generator will lockout, ALL 06.

This may be due to a disconnected, worn or distorted ionisation electrode.

In the case of a sudden loss of voltage, the burner will immediately switch off. When

4 COMMISSIONING, USE and MAINTENANCE

COMMISSIONING INSTRUCTIONS

A Commissioning checklist is included in this manual and must be completed by the engineer at the time of commissioning.

General

Please note: the combustion for this appli-ance has been checked, adjusted and pre-set at the factory for operation on the gas type defined on the appliance data plate. However, it is advisable to check for cor-rect combustion having first checked the following.

– That the boiler has been installed in accordance with these instructions

– The integrity of the flue system and the flue seals

– That PAR 9 has been set according to the calculated flue head losses(single boilers)

– That PAR 1 is set correctly for boilers connected to cascade flues

– The integrity of the boiler combustion circuit

Proceed to put the boiler into operation as follows:

1. Check the operational (working) gas inlet pressure.

Set up the boiler(s) to operate at maximum rate as described in 4.5.1 (chimney sweep) With the boiler operating in the maximum rate condition check that the operational (working) gas pres-sure at the inlet gas pressure test point (see fig 16 item 1) complies with the requirements of table 1.3.

Ensure that this inlet pressure can be obtained with all other gas appli-ances in the property working.

2. Competence to carry out the check of combustion perform-ance

- The person carrying out a com-bustion measurement should have been assessed as competent in the use of a flue gas analyser and the interpretation of the results.

- The flue gas analyser used should be one meeting the require-ments of BS7927 or BS-EN50379-3 and be calibrated i accordance with the analyser manufacturers requirements, and

- Competence can be demonstrat-ed by satisfactory completion of the CPA1 ACS assessment, which covers the use of electronic port-able gas analysers in accordance with BS 7967, parts 1 to 4.

3. Combustion check Connect the flue gas analyser to the flue gas sampling point as shown in the diagram (fig. 15/a). Procedure for checking the com-bustion. Operate the boilers in “Chimney Sweep “mode as described in sec-tion 4.5.1 and record the measure-ments from the flue gas analyser on both minimum and maximum output. Compare the results to the following: CO less than 200ppm

CO2 between 8.9% and 9.7% natural gas, and 9.9% and 10.5% LPG. Ratio less than 0.004. If the combustion reading is great-er than the acceptable value AND the integrity of the complete flue system, combustion circuit seals have been verified, AND the gas inlet pressure has been verified, AND the boiler parameter settings are correct, proceed as shown in 4.2.2.

Any adjustments should be done in small steps and adjustments of no more than 1/8th of a turn should be made, waiting at least 1 minute between adjustments to allow the settings to stabilise. Using the CO2 reading, adjustments should be made to the “OFF-SET” screw (6 fig 16) if it is incorrect at the mini-mum output, or to the “SHUTTER” (5 fig16) if it incorrect at the maxi-mum output.

If an acceptable setting level can-not be achieved, re-confirm that the integrity of the flue system, combustion circuit and working gas supply pressure. If required contact Sime Ltd for further assist-ance.

4.1 GAS VALVE (fig. 16)

The generator is supplied as standard with a gas valve, model SIT 822 NOVAMIX (fig. 16).

4.2 GAS CONVERSION (fig. 17)

This operation must be performed by authorised personnel using original Sime components.

To convert from natural gas to LPG or vice versa, perform the following operations– Close the gas cock.– Replace the nozzle with OR (1) and gasket

(2) with the one supplied in the kit.–On completion of the conversion, test all

gas connections using a suitable leak detection fluid. Do not use naked flames.

– Apply the nameplate with the new gas flow layout.

– Re configure PAR 1 as shown in 4.2.1. and check the combustion performance as described in 4.2.2.

4.2.1 New fuel configuration

For access to the installer’s parameters, press simultaneously keys and for 5 seconds (3 fig. 12). The parameters will scroll up and down with the keys and . The display pane will show the values of the parameter PAR 1. If the generator is a methane (G20) model, SET 8 will be dis-played:

To change the fuel to propane (G31), it is necessary to set SET 16, by pressing the key .The standard display will automatically

return after 10 seconds. The table below shows the SET settings to enter when the type of gas fuel is changed.

4.2.2 Calibrating the gas valve pressures

This can only be done using a flue gas ana-lyser. If the combustion reading is greater than the acceptable value AND the integrity of the complete flue system and combus-tion seals have been verified AND the inlet working gas pressure has been verified, adjustments to the gas valve can be made as described below. Make only small adjust-ments (1/8 turn max), and allow time for

the combustion analysis to be made before making further adjustments.

Sequence of operations:

1) Press and hold the button down for a few seconds .

2) Press the button for a few seconds .

3) Identify the CO2 values at max. power by adjusting the shutter (5 fig. 16):

MAX power

4.5 MAINTENANCE (fig. 20)

To ensure correct operation and efficiency it is important that the boiler is serviced at regular intervals, at least once a year (this may also be a condition of the warranty). Servicing must only be done by a qualified technician. During the routine service the condensate drain can be checked, by care-fully pouring water into the combustion chamber, while the burner is removed. Should the boiler not be used for long peri-ods of time, it is important that the conden-sate trap is checked and filled if required. It can be filled via the filling vent (see fig 20).

4.5.1 Chimney sweep function (fig. 21)

To check boiler combustion, press the installer’s key for a few seconds. The chimney sweep function will switch on and will continue for 15 minutes.From that moment, the boiler will start working in heating mode at maximum power, with cut off at 80°C and re-ignition at 70°C (ATTENTION! Ensure adequate circulation to the heating system is avail-able before activating chimney sweep).If the key and are pressed during the 15 minutes of the chimney sweep func-tion, the boiler will be brought respectively to maximum and minimum power.

The chimney sweep function will automati-cally switch off after 15 minutes or when the key is pressed again.

4.5.2 Operation floor drying (fig. 22)

The operation floor drying keeps the floor at a pre-established temperature profile and it is activated only for those systems com-bined with the mixed zone card MIXED ZONE code 8092234. The temperature profiles can be selected by means of the installer parameter PAR 43: 0 = Not activated function1 = Curve setting A2 = Curve setting B3 = Curve setting A + BThe turning off of the function happens

clicking on the button OFF (return of PAR 43 to the value 0) or automatically at the end of the function. The set of the mixed zone follows the devel-opment of the selected curve and reaches a maximum of 55°C. During the function all the other heating demands are ignored (heating, sanitary, antifreeze and chimney sweep). During the functioning the display shows the remaining days for the completion of the function (example mains digits -15 = 15

days lack to the end of the function). The diagram fig. 22 reports the development of the curve.

ATTENTION:- Observe the relevant standards and

regulations of the floor manufacturer!- Proper functioning is ensured only

when the plant is correctly installed (hydraulic system, electrical installa-tion, settings)! If not observed, the floor might get damaged!

If an electrical fault occurs on the appliance the preliminary electrical system checks must be carried out first. When any service or replacement of elec-trical components which has required the breaking and re-making of electrical con-nections has taken place, the following tests must be repeated:– earth continuity;– short circuit;– polarity;– resistance to earth.

5.1 EARTH CONTINUITY CHECK

Appliances must be electrically disconnect-ed, meter set on ø (ohm) x 1 scale and adjust zero if necessary. Tests leads from any appliance earth point (e.g. inside control box) see wiring diagrams (section 7) to earth pin on plug. Resistance should be less than 1 ø (ohm). If the resistance is greater than 1 ø (ohm) check all earth wires for continuity and all contacts are clean and tight. If the resist-ance to earth is still greater than 1 ø (ohm) then this should be investigated futher.

5.2 SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK

Switches turned FULL ON - meter set on ø (ohms) x 1 scale. Test leads from L to N on appliance terminal block, if meter reads 0

then there is a short circuit.Meter set on ø (ohm) x 100 scale. Repeat it with leads from L to E. If meter reads less than infinity (?) there is a fault.

NOTE: Should it be found that the fuse has failed but no fault is indicated, a detailed continuity check (i.e. by disconnecting and checking each component) is required to trace the faulty component. It is pos-sible that a fault could occur as a result of local burning/arcing but no fault could be found under test. However, a detailed visual inspection should reveal evidence of burning around the fault.

5.3 POLARITY CHECK

Appliance reconnected to mains supply and meter set on 300 V ac scale. Test at appli-ance terminal block.– Test leads from L to N meter reads

approx.: 240 V ac.– Test leads from L to E “” meter reads

approx. 240 V ac.– Test leads from N to E “” meter reads

from 0 to 15 V ac.

5.4 RESISTANCE TO EARTH CHECK

Appliance must be disconnected from main supply and meter on ø (ohm) x 100 scale.

All switches including thermostat on test leads from L to E - if meter reads other than infinity (?) there is a fault which should be isolated. A detailed continuity check is required to trace the faulty component.

IMPORTANT: These series of checks are the first elec-trical checks to be carried out during a fault finding procedure. On completion of the service/fault finding task which has required the breaking and remaking of electrical connections then the checks 5.1 Earth continuity, 5.3 Polarity and 5.4 Resistance to earth must be repeated.

INDUSTRY GUIDANCE FOR INSTALLERS ON CONDENSATE

DRAINAGE PIPE INSTALLATION

This guidance is endorsed by HHIC members.

1. BACKGROUND

During recent winters the UK has experienced prolonged spells of extremely cold weather - down to minus 20oC and below in many areas. This resulted in a significant increase in the number of calls to boiler manufacturers and heating engineers from householders with condensing (high efficiency) boilers where the condensate drainage pipe had frozen andbecome blocked with ice, causing the boiler to shut down. In the vast majority of cases such problems occur where the condensate drainage pipe is located externally to the building for some part of its length.

British Standards, Building Regulations etc. currently allow condensate drainage pipes to berun either internally or externally, or a combination of these. These documents give guidance on how to install the pipes in order to reduce the possibility of freezing. However this guidance may not be sufficient to prevent freezing in extreme conditions - with widespread and prolonged very low temperatures.

In view of the possibility that UK weather patterns will show more “extremes” in future due to the effects of global climate change, the following guidance updates previous recommendations on condensate drainage pipe installation. All other technical requirements for condensate drain installation given in British Standard BS 6798:2009, or in boiler manufacturers’ installation instructions should still be followed.

2. REVISED GUIDANCE ON CONDENSATE DRAINAGE PIPE INSTALLATION

Where a new or replacement boiler is being installed, access to an internal “gravity discharge” termination should be one of the main factors considered when determining potential boiler locations, so that the condensate drainage pipe can be terminated as recommended below. On an existing installation, the guidance below should also be followed if work is carried out to “upgrade” the condensate drain age system to reduce the risk of freezing in extreme conditions.

Internal condensate drainage pipework must be a minimum of 19mm ID (typically 22mm OD) plastic pipe and this should “fall” at least 45 mm per metre away from the boiler, taking the shortest practicable route to the termination point.

In order to minimise the risk of freezing during prolonged very cold spells, one of the following methods of terminating condensate drainage pipe should be adopted -

42

2.1 INTERNAL TERMINATION:

Wherever possible, the condensate drainage pipe should be terminated at a suitable internal foul water discharge point such as (a) an internal soil and vent stack or (b) an internal kitchen or bathroom waste pipe, washing machine waste pipe etc. A suitable permanent connection to the foul waste pipe should be used. Figures 1, 2(a), 2(b) show appropriate connection methods.

The possibility of waste pipes freezing downstream of the connection point should beconsidered when determining a suitable connection point - e.g. a slightly longer pipe run to an internal soil stack may be preferable to a shorter run connecting into a kitchen waste pipe discharging directly through the wall to an external drain.

Where “gravity discharge” to an internal termination is not physically possible (e.g. the discharge point is above the appliance location, or access is obstructed by a doorway), or where very long internal pipe runs would be required to reach a suitable discharge point, the following measures may be adopted -

2.2 USE OF A CONDENSATE PUMP (TO AN INTERNAL TERMINATION):

Condensate can be removed using a proprietary condensate pump, of a specification recommended by the boiler or pump manufacturer.

The pump outlet should discharge to a suitable internal foul water discharge point, such as (a) an internal soil and vent stack or (b) an internal kitchen or bathroom waste pipe, washing machine waste pipe etc. Figure 3 shows a typical connection method.

A suitable permanent connection to the foul waste pipe should be used and the manufacturer’s detailed installation instructions for the pump should be followed.

2.3 EXTERNAL TERMINATION:

The use of an externally-run condensate drainage pipe, terminating at a suitable foul water discharge point or purpose-designed soakaway, may be also be considered; however if this termination method is chosen then the following measures should be adopted -

The pipe should be run internally as far as possible before going externally and the pipe diameter should be increased to a minimum of 30mm ID (typically 32mm OD) before it passes through the wall.

The external run should be kept as short as possible, taking the most direct and “most vertical” route possible to the discharge point, with no horizontal sections in which condensate might collect.

The external pipe should be insulated using suitable waterproof and weatherproof insulation (“Class O” pipe insulation is suitable for this purpose) .

43

The use of fittings, elbows etc should be kept to a minimum and any internal “burrs” on cut pipework should be removed so that the internal pipe section is as smooth as possible.

The customer/householder should be advised that even with the above measures this type of installation could freeze, and that if this were to occur then boiler shutdown could result, requiring remedial action - possibly involving a chargeable engineer call-out.

Where there are likely to be extremes of temperature or wind-chill, the use of a proprietary trace-heating system for external condensate drainage pipework, incorporating an external frost thermostat, should therefore be considered. If such a system is used then the installation instructions of the trace heating manufacturer and any specific recommendations regarding pipe diameter, insulation, etc. should be followed. All other relevant guidance on condensate drainage pipe installation should also be followed.

Other cold weather protection methods approved or endorsed by boiler manufacturers and/or service organisations may be adopted if these are considered suitable by the parties involved.

If an external soil/vent stack is used as the external termination then the connection method shown in Figure 4 should be used, together with the measures on insulation etc. as described above and shown in the diagram.

When a rain water downpipe is used as the termination (NB only permissible if this downpipe passes to a combined foul and rainwater drainage system) an air break must be installed between the condensate drainage pipe and the downpipe to avoid reverse flow of rainwater into the boiler should the downpipe itself become flooded or frozen. Figure 5 shows a suitable connection method.

Where the condensate drainage pipe is terminated over an open foul drain or gully, the pipe should terminate below the grating level, but above water level, in order to minimise “wind chill” at the open end. Pipe drainage will be improved if the end is cut at 45o as opposed to a straight cut. The use of a drain cover (such as those used to prevent blockage by leaves) may offer further protection from wind chill. Figure 6 shows a suitable connection method.

Where the condensate drain pipe terminates in a purpose-designed soakaway (see BS 6798:2009 or boiler installation manual for soakaway design requirements) any above-ground section of condensate drainage pipe should be run and insulated as described above. Figure 7 shows a suitable connection method.

3. UNHEATED INTERNAL AREAS:

Internal condensate drainage pipes run in unheated areas such as lofts, basements and garages should be treated as external pipe.

44

NOTES

The Benchmark Commissioning Checklist (located at the back of the boiler installation manual) should be completed as required to record details of the condensate drainage pipe installation.

Where an external condensate drainage pipe is installed, the customer should be made aware of the risks and consequences of its freezing and offered the option to fit trace heating (or other measures approved by the boiler manufacturer or service organisation).

Separate guidance has been published for householders on remedial actions which can be taken if a condensate drainage pipe freezes. This may result in requests for alteration to condensate drainage pipework, in which case the guidance above should be followed.

In some instances (e.g. where an elderly person’s heating needs to be reinstated as an emergency measure) condensate drainage pipes may have been cut in order to bypass any blockage and allow re-ignition of the boiler, with condensate being collected in a suitable container as a temporary solution.

While not unsafe, this is not recommended practice and if such action has been taken then the condensate drainage pipe must be reinstated as soon as possible, using the above guidance to reduce risk of freezing in future.
