THERMOLEC Installation Instructions for Electric Boilers (CANADA) November 2011 VERSION 11
Installation Guidelines for Thermolec Electric Boilers Model B 1 Important 1.1 These instructions should be used as a general guide only. Electrical Code and local utility requirements must be followed and take precedence over these instructions. Thermolec electric boilers are manufactured with quality components for maximum life, durability and minimum service.

Water circulation and plumbing notes 6.1 The system is designed to operate with a maximum output temperature of 180°F or lower and a temperature rise across the unit of 20°F or lower. Please refer to Table 4 for the recommended flow rate versus the capacity of the boiler. Table 4 Recommended Water Flow Rate vs Capacity Capacity (kW) Imp.

6.4 The automatic pressure relief valve supplied with the boiler is required to prevent dangerous pressure build-ups in the system in case of system malfunction and may under certain conditions vent hot water. Do not install the system where water could damage rugs, furniture, etc. When piping the relief valve to a drain, check with local authority for recommended method of installation. Do not open or tamper with the relief valve.
Electronic Aquastat MAXIMUM WATER TEMPERATURE MINIMUM WATER TEMPERATURE °C -10 °F +14 Fig. 4 8.7 -5 +23 0 +32 +5 +41 +10 +50 Fig. 5 The outdoor sensor will : a) Maintain the selected maximum water temperature when the outdoor temperature is at -10°C (+14° F) or colder. b) Automatically and proportionally compensate by varying the water temperature between the maximum and minimum when the outdoor temperature is between –10°C (+14°F) and +10°C (+50°F).
.8 9.9 9.10 9.11 9.12 9.13 9.14 Set the thermostat above the room temperature. The system should start. Make sure the pump starts running as soon as the system starts. Heating stages will be switched ON in sequence at 30 second intervals, confirmed by green lights on the left hand side of the PC board on the TH600 or by red lights on the right hand side on the D22-B. Wait for two minutes and measure the current drawn by the boiler and compare it with the one shown on the nameplate.
.3 10.4 10.5 10.6 10.7 Simulate a heating demand by setting the thermostat higher than the room temperature. Switch the mode selector to position and check that the burner responds to the thermostat demand. Switch the mode selector to the "Dual-Energy" position . Install a jumper between terminals "S1 / S2"; the electric mode is automatically selected. The pump will start and the heating stages will be switched ON in sequence at 5 second intervals.
