Manufacturer's notes must not be taken in any way asoverriding statutory obligations.

BOILER SITING AND BASE

The boiler should be sited in accordance with BS6644: 1991 with respect to protecting the boiler fromdamage, air for combustion and ventilation, dischargeof products of combustion, clearances for service andaccess, temperatures, noise levels, the disposal ofboiler water and the effects of flooding of the boilerhouse or seepage from a roof top boiler house. Seepage 4 for required boiler clearances for service andaccess.

A level non-combustible floor capable of supportingthe weight of the boiler filled with water, see Table 3together with any additional weight bearing down onthe base from connections, etc, must be provided.

The Derwent Compact Plus Condensing is designedto be installed directly on the boiler house floorprovided it is adequate but we would recommend thata base of adequate height off the floor so as to beraised in case of flooding, but also low enough toallow ease of erection is used. This should typically bea 50mm concrete plinth with an area equal to that ofthe plan of the boiler.

Heating systems must be installed so that watercannot be returned from the heating system to thedrinking water system to which it is connected toprevent the drinking water being contaminated by theheating water or chemicals used in the heating water.

Consideration should be given to fitting steel stripsbeneath the boiler feet for boiler base protection, seeFig. 2 for base details.

When preparing a site reference should be made toLocal Authorities and Building Regulations 1991.

Before any work takes place a Risk Assessmentshould be carried out to determine what possible risksare associated with the work which is taking place.

VENTILATION

Safe, efficient and trouble free operation ofconventionally flued boilers is vitally dependent onthe provision of an adequate supply of fresh air to theroom in which the appliance is installed. Accountmust also be taken of any other fuel burningappliance existing or to be fitted when designing theventilation and combustion air systems.

IMPORTANT: the use of an extractor fan in the sameroom as the boiler (or in an adjacent room incommunication) can in certain conditions adverselyeffect the safe operation of the boiler and thereforemust be avoided.

Further guidance on ventilation for gas appliances isprovided by BS 6644: 1991 and BS 5440 1989 Part2.

FLUE

To ensure safe and satisfactory operation thechimney system, which may be individual or commonin the case of modular boiler installations, shall becapable of the complete evacuation of combustionproducts at all times. The effective height of thechimney terminal(s) above the boiler(s) flue outlet(s)shall ensure sufficient buoyancy to overcome theresistance of the bends, tees and runs of the fluepipe involved and shall terminate in a down draughtfree zone. The number of bends used should be keptto a minimum and runs of flue pipe less than 45° tothe horizontal should be avoided in order to complywith the recommendations made in BS 6644: 1991and British Gas publication IM/11 "Flues forCommercial and Industrial Gas Fired Boilers and AirHeaters". The third edition of the 1956 Clean Air ActMemorandum and the Building Regulations shouldbe strictly observed and approval obtained whereapplicable, combustion chamber details are given inSection 1.

The flue system must be designed to workspecifically to remove the products of combustion.

IMPORTANT: 90° square bends must not be used onthe flue system, including the boiler flue spigot, astraight length followed by an "easy sweep" or lobsterback bend should be used.

FLUE SIZE CONSIDERATIONS

Nominal flue connection sizes are given in technicaldata Table 3, these sizes refer to the boiler flueconnection spigot.

The actual size of the flue system will depend onindividual site applications. Below are generalconsiderations on sizing flue systems. These notes

are for guidance only and Potterton CommercialDivision cannot accept responsibility for any fluesystem designs.

Horizontal Flue Runs

Horizontal flue runs are not recommendedparticularly over 3m in length, where these areunavoidable, advice should be sought from a fluesystem specialist.

Common Flue Systems

Where multiple boilers are installed on a commonflue system then the flue system should be designedto ensure the correct operation of the flue on varyingload conditions. In particular that the appliance fluedraught is within the operating parameter under fullload and partial load conditions. For safe and reliableoperation of the boiler plant it is recommended thatthe variance in flue draught available at eachappliance under full and part load operation isdesigned to a minimum.

(It is essential that the services of a specialist fluesystem manufacturer are sought for the design ofcommon flue systems).

For further information regarding ventilation andflueing see Potterton Technical Bulletin No.4, currentissue or see relevant British Standard publicationBS6644: 1991.

THE ABOVE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE FORGENERAL GUIDANCE ONLY. POTTERTONCOMMERCIAL DIVISION CANNOT ACCEPTRESPONSIBILITY FOR FLUE SYSTEM DESIGNSBASED ON THE ABOVE RECOMMENDATIONS.

WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEMS

The water circulation system should be indirect andinstalled in accordance with the relevant parts ofBritish Standards Codes of Practice CP342.2 and BS6644: 1991.

The maximum and minimum design temperaturedifferential across the boiler should be 20°C and10°C and the boiler should be prevented fromoperating with flow rates giving a temperaturedifference across the boiler greater than 20°C basedon the full boiler output. Boilers operating underconstant flow conditions can be more accuratelycontrolled and are not subject to excessivetemperature stresses.

Page 9: MAY 2004 - The Initiative · The Potterton Derwent Compact Plus Condensing cast iron sectional boiler is available in three sizes. Table 3 (page 2) gives kW outputs and technical

POTTERTON COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS DIVISION SECTION 3INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

DERWENT COMPACT PLUS - CONDENSING PAGE 7

The boilers MUST NOT be fired under anycircumstances with less than the minimum waterflow.

On systems with variable flow rates due to flowreducing devices, ie. TRVs, zone valves, etc, orwhere the minimum heat demand, ie. summerdomestic hot water load, does not achieve theminimum boiler flow rate then consideration shall begiven to incorporating a primary loop system. Forfurther information see Potterton PublicationTechnical Bulletin No.1 Issue 2.

It is recommended that the system is designed togive a constant flow rate. For further information onwater circulation systems see Potterton publicationTechnical Bulletin No.1 and Technical Bulletin No.3current issue.

BOILER PROTECTION

The provision of pump overrun by a time delay relayor a thermostat situated in the flow pipe close to theboiler is essential to remove residual heat from theboiler.

The boiler and system should be protected bysuitable frost thermostats.

Never fill a hot boiler with cold water. Suddencooling may cause the cast iron to fracture underthe stress.

Unions and isolating valves should be fitted to theflow and return manifolds so that the boiler can beisolated from the system if the need arises.

SYSTEM WATER QUALITY

Boiler systems require the system water to becontrolled by the use of inhibitors to maintain aneutral pH and inhibit corrosion. The system pHshould be controlled between 7 and 8. On systemswith Aluminium components a pH above 8.4 cancause failure of the Aluminium. The water systemmust be free of leaks to prevent raw water make up,which will dilute any inhibitors, promote corrosion andform lime scale.

The system water should be checked as part of amaintenance programme as a minimum on an annualbasis to ensure that corrosion inhibitors and pH areadequate for continued protection.

Existing SystemsOn existing systems where boilers are being replaceddue to failure then the cause should be investigatedbefore installing new boilers. This can normally be

achieved by cutting open a failed boiler section andexamination for system debris or contamination. Lime scale is a positive indicator of continuoussystem water make up due to water loss. Evidence ofmagnetite (black sludge) in the system and theformation of gas in radiators causing air locking is apositive indicator of corrosion.Where an old system shows evidence ofcontamination then system cleaning should becarried out before installation of new boilers. Theheating system should be chemically flushed toremove any lime scale or corrosion and a corrosionand lime scale inhibitor added. Lime scale descalersif incorrectly used could cause any remaining systemdebris to continue to breakdown and contaminate thenew boiler causing boiler failure. Advice on system cleaning and suitable productsshould be sought from specialist suppliers of systemcleaners such as Fernox or Sentinel. It is important to note that corrosion inhibitor can onlybe used in an attempt to prevent corrosion fromoccurring, where a system has an existing corrosionproblem, inhibitors will be ineffective and the systemrequires cleaning.

On existing systems where comprehensive descalingand desludging cannot be carried out thenconsideration should be given to separating the newboiler system from the existing system pipe work bythe use of plate heat exchangers. New SystemsNew pipe work systems should be thoroughly flushedwith a suitable cleaning agent to remove debris andflux residues before filling. The system water shouldbe dosed with a suitable corrosion and lime scaleinhibitor. SEALED SYSTEMS

General

Risk Assessment

Before starting work a risk assessment should becarried out in the boiler house and its access todetermine and ensure a safe installation and workingenvironment.

Regardless of the type of activity being assessed, theprinciples of risk assessments are the same. Thebasic steps are: -

• Classify Activity• Identify Hazards• Identify Existing Control Measures• Determine Risk• Assess Acceptability of Risk• Prepare a Control Plan• Implement Plan• Review Plan• Record Results

Manual Handling

Any person or persons moving or lifting the boiler orany part of the boiler, should be trained in ManualHandling Techniques and if necessary use suitablelifting equipment to reduce the risk of injury tothemselves and other people.

Personal Protective Equipment

When undertaken any work you must comply with thePersonal Protective Equipment Regulations 1992.

Confined Spaces

A “confined space” as defined in the Health andSafety Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 ‘ meansany place, including any chamber, tank, vat, silo, pit,trench, pipe, sewer, flue, well or other similar space inwhich, by virtue of its enclosed nature, there arises areasonably foreseeable specified risk.

Precautions should be taken in all areas where, byvirtue of its even partially enclosed nature, pose areasonably foreseeable specified risk.

Electrical Safety

Working on appliances can be broken down to twomain systems of work.

1 Safe systems of work are adapted for all boilermaintenance & repair work undertaken on site.

2 The work undertaken does not affect the electricalsafety of the appliance. In particular the earthconnected to the buildings fixed electricalinstallation.

In the case of (1) above electrical work should only beundertaken once the boiler has been isolated from theelectricity supply and confirmed electrically dead. Ifthis is impractical then suitable precautions must beundertaken to prevent injury.

In the case of (2) above checks are specified toidentify any abnormality in the electricity supply to theboiler as well as to confirm that the boiler electricalconnections are reinstated correctly where it isnecessary to disconnect or reconnect any internalwiring within the boiler.

If it is necessary to disconnect and reconnect theappliance from the site electrical installation other thanmeans of a plug and socket then additional checksshall be undertaken by an approved engineer to checkthe earth loop impedance in accordance with IEEregulations.

Always carry out preliminary electrical safety checks.

All appliances and central heating systems must beprovided with their own means of isolation for safetypurposes especially during installation andmaintenance.

Preparation

Preparatory to installation of the boiler a check mustbe made to ensure that suitable facilities are availablefor off-loading the boiler and moving it into it finalposition ensuring all Manual Handling Techniques arefollowed. Particular attention must be paid to ensuringcleanliness of the boiler room.

Working Principles of the Derwent Compact PlusCondensing

The boiler has been designed to work as a two stageHigh/Low boiler. Full load (100%) for second stageand low fire (80%) for first stage. The firing of the

boiler works to the following operation:

1. Pre-purge takes place for a duration of 40seconds during which the pressure switches aretested. If the pressure switch for the second stageis not satisfied, but the first stage is satisfied, thecycle will go to the next step.

2. Pilot lights during the next 10 second period.

3. Main burner establishes and cross lighting takesplace. The boiler will remain for 60 seconds onfirst stage operation, even if the second stagethermostat is calling for heat. The main valvecontains a regulator which is in charge of firststage operation.

4. The boiler moves from the first stage operation tothe second stage operation (Nominal load) andremaining on this setting until the thermostat issatisfied. The main valve with its regulator ensurethe second stage operates correctly.

HYDRAULIC TEST OF BOILER

This is to be carried out on boilers assembled on siteor where water manifolds have been disturbed.

Fit a hydraulic test pump to the return manifold and fita valve to vent air from the flow connection.

Fill the boiler with cold water and, in accordance withBS 779: 1976, pressurise up to 1.5 times the designpressure, ie. 4.5 bar maximum, and observe for 30minutes.

Connecting the Water System

The flow and return connections should be made tothe appropriate manifolds following therecommendations of CP342 and PM5.It is essential that all pipework connections to theboiler are self-supporting, correctly aligned and allowfor free expansion of both boiler and pipework.Care should be taken in the pipework design toprevent strain on the connections. Excessive straincan leak to premature failure of the boiler, which isobviously outside the terms of our warranty.The use of expansion bellows to take up both axialand lateral movement is recommended.The flow and return connections are made at the rearof the boiler.

Condensate

The condensate siphon of the secondary heatexchanger is at the rear of the boiler. It is onlypermissible to drain the condensate directly into adomestic sewer system when the system consists ofcorrosion-resistant materials (e.g. PP pipe, stoneware

INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUALDERWENT COMPACT PLUS – CONDENSING PAGE 11

etc.). It must be possible for the condensate to drainfreely into a funnel. A trap must be installed betweenthe funnel and sewer system.

Connecting the Electrical Supply

The electrical supply should be 230V 1Ph 50Hz. A6.3A fuse and a suitable two pole isolator having acontact separation of at least 3mm in all poles has to be provided by the installer for isolation of the boiler.All on site wiring shall conform to IEE Regulations.

The live and neutral connections should be made tothe control panel terminal block. The earth connectionshould be made 50mm longer. The length of theconductors between the cord anchorage and theterminals must be such that the current carryingconductors become taut before the earth conductor ifthe cable or cord slips out of the cord anchorage. Thewiring diagrams are included in this manual and alsoon the door panel of the boiler.

For multiple boiler installations each boiler shall havean isolator and fuse as detailed above to protect theboiler and allow for maintenance.

Connecting the Flue

The fluehood has a vertical female outlet into whichthe flue should be fitted and sealed fitted (dimensionsgiven in General Data). It is recommended that asingle skin stainless steel fully sealed flue system beinstalled and the flue is suitable for condensingboilers.

Connecting the Gas Supply

The connection should be made to the maleconnection (size given in Table 2). A union andisolating valve should be fitted close to the boiler toallow disconnection of the boiler controls formaintenance and repair.

The gas supply should be made through a suitablemeter and the local gas undertaking should beconsulted to determine the suitability of the meter andgas supply to meet existing and additional demandsfor gas.

The installation should be made in accordance withthe requirements of the Gas Safety (Installation &Use) Regulations and all other regulations and Codesof Practice

In particular, before connecting the boiler, ensure thatthe gas supply has been purged of air and a manualvalve for isolation of the boiler is fitted in an accessibleposition, readily identifiable, adjacent to the boiler.

The gas supply should be supported adequately.

For large single and multiple boiler installationsconsideration should be given to the installation ofadditional gas meters to assist in the monitoring ofboiler performance.

Attention is drawn to the need for adequately sizedpipework according to the maximum gas demand formultiple boiler installations and each boiler shall beprovided with an isolating valve so that it is possible toisolate the boiler from a common gas supply formaintenance purposes. The gas train is fitted with alow-pressure switch, which is set to operate at aminimum gas pressure of 13mbar.

Boiler Controls

The operation of the boiler is under the control of it'sown control box, boiler thermostats, 2 air pressureswitches, gas pressure switch and overheatthermostats.

In addition, the boiler should be controlled by a timeswitch, frost thermostat, pump overrun facility and, formultiple boiler installations, a boiler sequencecontroller. The boiler can be controlled externally byremoving link D to G and providing a switch acrossthese terminals to control the boiler.

The high limit thermostat and burner lock out signalscan be picked up from terminals marked remoteindication. These are volt free contacts.

See boiler wiring diagram.

The resistance tolerance is about 5 Ohms

IMPORTANT: The boiler/burner units aremanufactured in accordance with ISO 9002. Acondition of the supply of the appliance forcompliance with this Quality Assurance plan isthe return of the appliance commissioning report.

Important – Safety

In the U.K. it is a legal requirement that when workingon gas appliances the engineer must be CORGIregistered. The manufacturer cannot be heldresponsible for any consequential damage, loss orpersonal injury as a result of customers failing tofollow these instructions, or as a result of misuse.

Emergency Instructions

The burners are designed and constructed to meet allof the essential requirements of the GAS APPLIANCEDIRECTIVE 90/396/EEC and under normalcircumstances should not give occasion to anyhazardous conditions. If such a condition should occurduring commissioning or subsequent use of this

product, be it a fault of the boiler or of any instrument,machine or service in the proximity of the burner thenthe GAS and ELECTRICITY supply to the burnershould be IMMEDIATELY ISOLATED until such timethat the fault has been investigated and rectified.

IMPORTANT After each adjustment, gas flow rateand flue gas analysis should be re-checked.

ALWAYS Use approved test equipment (continuallymonitoring electronic equipment is recommended).

NEVER Rely on a visual inspection of the flame as aguide to combustion quality.

Following/during commissioning of the burner unit thefollowing additional checks should be carried out.

1 Operation of the control, high/low and limitthermostats should be checked for correct

2 The flue draught available at the appliance flueoutlet should be checked under all operatingconditions (hot and cold) and should be within theboiler operating parameters, see Table 3.

3 The fuel supply to the appliance should beisolated and the burner operated to ensure safetyshut down and lockout of the burner on flamefailure.

4 Shut down of the boiler plant by external controlsdoes not cause a hazardous condition and pumpoverrun is provided to remove residual heat fromthe boiler.

5 Following commissioning the boiler overheat andcontrol thermostats should be set to the requiredoperating setting.

6 Following completion of commissioning thesoundness of all automatic fuel valves should bechecked for leakage.

Additional Checks

Where possible, the system should be checked toensure that following purging of air there is no rawwater make-up. In particular, when the system isoperated in the hot condition, there should be nodischarge of water from the safety valve, open vent orcold feed tank overflow that would otherwise lead tounregulated raw water make-up when the systemcools down.

Pre-Lighting

Before attempting to light the boiler start thecirculating pump and check that it is scheduled to run

and not on pump overrun if the boiler has been firedpreviously.

Check that the pilot gas cocks and electrical supplyare turned off.

Set the boiler control thermostat to the requiredposition and the time clock to the ‘ON’ position. Checkthat the high limit thermostat has not been tripped byremoving the hexagon cap nut and pressing thebutton beneath it.

Start the boiler by switching on the main isolator andthe on/off switch on the boiler control panel fascia andthe boiler will attempt to light. After a delay (pre-purgetime) of approximately 40 seconds the ignition sparkshould be heard and after 5 seconds the control boxshould lock out.

If the ignition spark is not detected or the control boxdoes not lock out see Fault Finding

Commissioning Live Run

1 Turn on the appliance isolation valve.

2 Check the inlet pressure, which should be at least20mbar, on the inlet test pressure point and notethe value.

3 Close the pilot supply gas cock and check that thepilot pressure is zero and not moving.

4 Turn on the electricity supply at the main isolatorand at the on/off switch on the control panelfascia, (ensuring that time clocks and any otherexternal controls are made or are in the ONposition) also turn on the pilot isolating valve.

5 Approximately 40 seconds (pre-purge time) afterswitching on the ignition a spark should appearfollowed by ignition of the pilot burner. If the pilotflame is not established the control box willlockout in approximately 5 seconds..

6 The control box may be reset after a delay of fiveseconds by pressing the reset button on thecontrol panel and the red light will go out. Whenthe pilot flame is established check the gaspressure on the gas manifold pressure nipple andadjust the regulator if necessary (located on thegas valve). Turn off the pilot check valve and pulloff the ionisation probe and check that the pilotand main burner shuts down.

7 Re-connect the ionisation probe and tune on thepilot check valve and the pilot burner will relightfollowed 10-15 seconds later by the main gasburners.

8 Observe the main gas flame through the viewingport above the pilot burner, the flames should be

blue and well defined ‘V’ shaped flame. Thencheck the main gas manifold gas pressure andadjust to give correct burner pressure

9 For high/low operation the high fire rate must be set first.

With a pressure gauge fitted to the burnermanifold, turn the boiler on and set the gas valve.

Before any adjustment can be made the yellowcap must first be removed.

Adjust the high fire adjustment screw using an8mm spanner to turn the adjustment screw,clockwise to increase and anti-clockwise to reduceuntil correct high fire burner pressure is reached.

The low fire rate can now be adjusted by adjustingthe low fire adjustment screw using a screwdriver(clockwise increases and anti-clockwise reducesthe low fire burner pressure) until a low fire burnerpressure is reached.

Operate the boiler at high and low fire checkingthat the burner manifold pressure is correct andthat the flame is stable and blue.

10 Test the gas connection between the ignition valveand the pilot burner for soundness with a soapsolution or other approved method and seal anyleakages. Switch off the electrical supply andcheck that the burner has extinguished. Removethe pressure gauge from the burner manifold andreplace the sealing screw.

11 Check the reliability of ignition of the boiler byswitching the boiler off using the burner on/off switch on the boiler control panel. After two

minutes turn the switch back on. The boiler will now relight. Check that the pilot has a stable flame and that the main burners light smoothly.

12 With the boiler switched on test for soundnessbetween the gas valve and the burner manifoldwith a soap solution or any other approvedmethod and seal any leaks.

13 Turn the appliance isolation valve off. The mainand pilot burners should go off. The boiler willattempt to relight. Check that the ignitor startsand that the boiler locks out.

WATER FLOW SWITCH

For boilers fitted with a water flow switch, the installershould check that it is not possible for the boiler toflow when there is no water flow. This may be done bychecking the boiler closes down when the pumps areswitched off or the water flow is gated off. Alwaysrestore the water flow before completingcommissioning.

FAULT FINDING

Set out below are general guidance notes on systemfault finding.

Overheat Operation

Operation of the boiler overheat thermostat isassociated with a reduction in boiler water flow.Where overheat operation is reported the followingshould be checked.

a) The boiler/system pump has not tripped.

b) Pump overrun is operational to dissipate residualheat from the boiler on system shut down.

c) System valves are open.d) The boiler is operating at the correct rate and is

not overfired.

To reset the overheat thermostat allow the boiler tocool down, remove the overheat thermostat knob andpress the reset button.

The use of a primary loop system is highlyrecommended to provide a constant boiler flow rateunder all operating conditions.

Burner Lockout

The boilers have an integral safety system to allow thesafe and reliable operation of the burner. Failure ofthe burner to operate correctly will cause the burnercontrol box to "lockout" and the lockout button on theburner will illuminate to indicate this.

The lockout condition can be manually reset bypushing the reset button and the control box shouldrestart its control sequence in an attempt to light the

burner. If the control box lockout will not reset or goesto lockout after being reset then the services of aboiler repair/maintenance company should be sought.This service is available from Potterton CommercialDivision service offices at the addresses on the backpage of this manual.

WARNING: The lockout reset button should not berepeatedly operated otherwise a hazardoussituation may occur.

Should the boiler go to lockout, check the followingbefore attempting to relight the burner.

1 The gas meter pressure is above 18 mbar.

2 The electrical supply to the appliance is of thecorrect voltage and polarity.
