PIPE WORK:
Copper tubing to BS EN 1057:1996 is recommended for water pipes.
Jointing should be either with capillary soldered or compression fittings.
Where possible pipes should have a gradient to ensure air is carried
naturally to air release points and water flows naturally to drain taps.
The appliance has a built-in automatic air release valve, however it should
be ensured as far as possible that the appliance heat exchanger is not a
natural collecting point for air.
Except where providing useful heat, pipes should be insulated to prevent
heat loss and avoid freezing.
Particular attention should be paid to pipes passing through ventilated
spaces in roofs and under floors.
BY-PASS:
The appliance includes an automatic by-pass valve, which protects the main
heat exchanger in case of reduced or interrupted water circulation through
the heating system, due to the closing of thermostatic valves or radiator
valves within the system.
SYSTEM DESIGN:
This boiler is suitable only for sealed systems.
Drain Cocks:
These must be located in accessible positions to permit the draining of the
whole system and should be fitted at all low points. The taps must be at least
15mm nominal size and manufactured in accordance with BS 2870:1980.
SAFETY VALVE DISCHARGE:
The discharge should terminate facing downward on the exterior of the
building in a position where discharging (possibly boiling water & steam) will
not create danger or nuisance, but in an easily visible position, and not
cause damage to electrical components and wiring.
The discharge must not be over an entrance or a window or any other type
of public access.
AIR RELEASE POINTS:
These must be fitted at all high points where air naturally collects and must
be sited to facilitate complete filling of the system.
The appliance has an integral sealed expansion vessel to accommodate the
increase of water volume when the system is heated.
It can accept up to 6 litre (1.3 gal) of expansion water. If the heating circuit
has an unusually high water content, calculate the total expansion and add
an additional sealed expansion vessel with adequate capacity. This should
be located on the return pipe work as close as possible to the pump inlet.
MAINS WATER FEED - CENTRAL HEATING:
There must be no direct connection to the mains water supply even through
a non-return valve, without the approval of the Local Water Authority.
FILLING:
A temporary method for initially filling the system and replacing lost water
during servicing and initial filling (in accordance with current Water
Regulations), is provided as an integral part of the connection kit (see FIG.
2.4). The flexible hose must be removed once the system has been filled.

FLUE SYSTEM
2.9 FLUE CONNECTIONS
The provision for satisfactory flue termination must be made in accordance
with BS 5440-1.
The appliance must be installed so that the flue terminal is exposed to outside air.
The terminal must not discharge into another room or space such as an
outhouse or lean-to.
It is important that the position of the terminal allows a free passage of air
across it at all times.
The terminal should be located with due regard for the damage or
discolouration that might occur on buildings in the vicinity.
In cold or humid weather water vapour may condense on leaving the flue
terminal.
The effect of such “pluming” must be considered.
If the terminal is less than 2 metres above a balcony, above ground or above
a flat roof to which people have access, then a suitable terminal guard must
be fitted. When ordering a terminal guard, quote the appliance model
number.
A suitable terminal guard is available from:

PRIORITY KIT
The microSYSTEM is able to be connected to a specially designed
kit for the management of D.H.W. production. This kit gives priority to
production of D.H.W. unlike traditional systems where the boiler
power is split between C.H. and D.H.W. This generally enables a
smaller storage cylinder to be chosen as the boiler’s full output will be
channelled into the cylinder allowing for a quick heat-up.

removing the pump plug and also manually rotate the pump shaft in
the direction indicated by the pump label to ensure the pump is free.
Refit the pump plug.
Continue filling the system until at least 1.5 bar registers on the pressure
gauge.
Inspect the system for water leaks and remedy any leaks discovered.
GAS SUPPLY:
Inspect the entire installation including the gas meter, test for soundness
and purge the supply as described in BS 6891:1988.
Open the gas cock (supplied with the connection kit) to the appliance and
check the gas connections on the appliance for leaks.
17
When the installation and filling are completed turn on the central heating
system (section 4.4) and run it until the temperature has reached the boiler
operating temperature. The system must then be immediately flushed
through.
The flushing procedure must be in line with BS 7593:1992 code of practice for
treatment of water in domestic hot water central heating systems.
During this operation, we highly recommend the use of a central heating
flushing detergent (Fernox Superfloc or equivalent), whose function is to
dissolve any foreign matter that may be in the system.
Substances different from these could create serious problems to the
pump or other components.
The use of an inhibitor in the system such as Fernox MB-1 or equivalent is
strongly recommended to prevent corrosion (sludge) damaging the boiler and
system.
Failure to carry out this procedure may invalidate the appliance
warranty.

To dismantle the front casing panel it is necessary to:
1 - Remove the two screws “B”;
2 - Move the front casing panel up and lift forward.
THE CHECKS TO BE RUN BEFORE INITIAL START-UP ARE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Make sure that:
4.4 INITIAL START-UP
-the screw on the automatic air valve has been loosened when the
system is full;
- If the water pressure in the system is below 1.5 bar, bring it up to the
appropriate level;
-Ensure that the gas cock is closed;
-Make sure that the electrical connection has been made properly and
that the earth wire is connected to an efficient earthing system;
-Supply power to the boiler by pushing the On/Off button “A” (see
FIG.4.1) - the L.E.D. “B” will illuminate. Then push the button “C” in for
central heating - the L.E.D. “D” will illuminate. This will start the
circulation pump. After 7 seconds, the boiler will signal a shutdown due
to ignition failure. Leave the boiler as it is until all of the air has been bled
from the system.
-Loosen the cap on the head of the pump to eliminate any air pockets;
-Repeat the procedure for bleeding the radiators of air;
-Check the system pressure and, if it has dropped, open the filling loop
again to bring the pressure back up to 1.5 bar.
2. Make sure that all gate valves are open;
3. Turn on the gas cock and check the seals on the connections with an
approved soap solution and eliminate any leaks.
4. Press the reset button “E” for the lighting system; the spark will light the
main burner. If the burner does not light the first time, repeat the
procedure.
5. Check the minimum and maximum pressure values for the gas going to
the burner; adjust it if needed using the values indicated in the table in
section 5 (See the relative section for burner pressure adjustment within
the servicing manual).
4.5
COMBUSTION ANALYSIS
The flue connector has two apertures, readings can be
taken for the temperature of the combustion by-products
and of the combustion air, as well as of the concentrations
FIG. 4.2
2
2
of O and CO , etc. .
To access these intakes it is necessary to unscrew the front
screw and remove the metal plate with sealing gasket.
To achieve the best test conditions, turn the central heating
adjustment knob “G” to the “max” position and remove the
electrical connection to the heating sensor (see section 6.).
This will allow the appliance to operate at the maximum
heating power.
19
4.6
FUME DISCHARGE
MONITORING
In the boiler, it is possible to monitor the correct operation of
the flue exhaust/air intake, checking for a loss of general
pressure in the system. Through the use of a differential
manometer connected to the test points of the combustion
chamber, it is possible to detect the ∆P of operation of the air
pressure switch.
The value detected should not be less than 0.55 mbar under
conditions of maximum thermal power in order for the boiler
to function properly and without interruption.
FIG. 4.3
The boiler is fitted with the following devices (see section 4.2 for references).
1 - IGNITION FAILURE:
4.7
BOILER SAFETY SYSTEMS
This indicates ignition failure when a flame is not detected within 7
seconds of starting an ignition sequence. The L.E.D. “F” will illuminate
to signal the shutdown status.
The system can be reset by pressing and releasing the button “E” after
checking to make sure that the gas cock is open.
2 - INSUFFICIENT SYSTEM PRESSURE:
In the event of insufficient water pressure in the heating system, a
safety device will shutdown the boiler. Check the system pressure on
the pressure gauge “J” and if it is less than 0.4 bar refill the system to
1.5 bar. Once the system pressure is at the correct level the boiler will
ignite automatically.
3 - OVERHEATING:
This control shuts off the boiler in the case where the primary circuit
reaches a temperature in excess of 105°C.
The red L.E.D. “F” will illuminate to signal this shutdown status.
The system can be reset by waiting a few minutes for the primary
exchanger to cool down and then by pressing and releasing the “E”
button.
4. ANTI-FROST DEVICE:
The boiler is equipped with a device that, in the event of the water
temperature going below 6°C, the burner ignites at the minimum power
until the boiler water reaches a temperature of 16°C.
This device operates only if the boiler is functioning perfectly and:
- the system pressure is sufficient;
- the boiler is powered electrically - L.E.D. “B” illuminated;
- the gas is turned on.
5 - EXHAUST DISCHARGE ANOMALY SHUTDOWN:
The boiler is fitted with safety devices, which in the event of defective
discharge of exhaust fumes, automatically interrupts the gas supply,
thereby shutting off the boiler.
The shutdown of the boiler is temporary and when the discharge state
of exhaust fumes has returned to normal, the boiler automatically turns
back on
The heating system must be emptied as follows:
- Turn off the boiler;
4.8
DRAINING THE SYSTEM
- Attach a hose pipe and open the drain valve;
- Empty the system at the lowest points (where present). When the heating
system is unused for an extended period of time, it is recommended that you
add antifreeze with an ethylene glycol base to the water in the
heating lines and radiators if the ambient temperature drops below 0°C during
the winter.
This makes repeated draining of the entire system unnecessary.

SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure efficient safe operation, it is recommended that the
boiler is serviced annually by a competent person.
Before starting any servicing work, ensure both the gas and
electrical supplies to the boiler are isolated and the boiler is
cool.
Before and after servicing, a combustion analysis should be made
via the flue sampling point (please refer to the Installation Manual
for further details).
After servicing, preliminary electrical system checks must be
carried out to ensure electrical safety (i.e. polarity, earth continuity,
resistance to earth and short circuit).
