INTRODUCTION The Linea 7 range is comprised of 3 models of combination boiler – 726, 730, 735 – with outputs to heating & DHW of 26, 30 & 35 kW respectively. Each appliance – by design – incorporates electronic ignition, circulating pump, expansion vessel, safety valve, pressure gauge, and automatic by-pass. The Linea 7 range are produced as room sealed, category II2H3+ appliances, suitable for internal wall mounting applications only.

SECTION 3 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS (UK) This appliance must be installed by a competent person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations. 3.1 3.2 RELATED DOCUMENTS The installation of this boiler must be in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations, the local building regulations, the current I.E.E.
WATER CIRCULATION Detailed recommendations are given in BS 5449 Part 1 and BS 6798. The following notes are for general guidance only. 3.6.1 PIPEWORK It is recommended that copper tubing to BS 2871 Part 1 is used in conjunction with soldered capillary joints. Where possible pipes should have a gradient to ensure air is carried naturally to air release points and that water flows naturally to drain cocks.
3.10 TIMBER FRAMED BUILDINGS If the appliance is to be fitted in a timber framed building, it should be fitted in accordance with the Institute of Gas Engineers publication (IGE/UP/ 7) ‘Guide for Gas Installations in Timber Frame Buildings’. 3.11 INHIBITORS Vokera recommend that a inhibitor – suitable for use with low water-content, copper heat exchangers – is used to protect the boiler and system from the effects of corrosion and/or electrolytic action.
Pipe work from the meter to the appliance must be of adequate size. Pipes of a smaller size than the appliance gas inlet connection must not be used. The installation must be tested for soundness in accordance with I.S. 813. If the gas supply serves more than one appliance, it must be ensured that an adequate supply is maintained to each appliance when they are in use at the same time. 3A.
3A.9 MOUNTING ON A COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE If the appliance is to be fitted on a wall of combustible material, a sheet of fireproof material must protect the wall. 3A.10 TIMBER FRAMED BUILDINGS If the appliance is to be fitted in a timber framed building, it should be fitted in accordance with I.S. 813 and local Building Regulations. The Institute of Gas Engineers publication (IGE/ UP/7) ‘Guide for Gas Installations in Timber Frame Buildings’ gives specific advice on this type of installation. 3A.
The telescopic flue kit (part no. 2359119) is suitable for a distance (dimension ’Y’) of up to 600mm. Dimension ‘Y’ is measured from the end of the terminal to the end of the outer (100mm) pipe. The internal trim should be fitted to the flue pipe before connection of the 90° bend. Reduction for additional bends Bend Reduction in maximum flue length for each bend 45° bend 0.5 metre 90° bend 1.0 metre Horizontal flue terminals and accessories Part No. Description 2359029 Standard flue kit.
Fig. 8A You must ensure that the entire flue system is properly supported and connected. Seal the flue assembly to the wall using cement or a suitable alternative that provides satisfactory weatherproofing. The exterior trim can now be fitted. 4.5.1.4 EXTENDING THE HORIZONTAL FLUE The horizontal flue system can be extended using bends and/or extensions from the Uni-Flue range (see 4.5.1). an extension or bend can be connected to the appliance flue outlet if desired (see 4.4.
● ● ● ● Ensure that the entire flue system is adequately supported, use at least one bracket for each extension. The entire flue system must be adequately insulated to maintain heat within the flue system thereby reducing the possibility of condensate production. As the exhaust outlet pipe can reach very high temperatures it must be protected to prevent persons touching the hot surface.
4.5.3.1 INSTALLATION OF TWIN ADAPTOR KIT (fig. 10) ● Insert the exhaust connection manifold onto the appliance flue outlet. ● Place the silicone seal (supplied with twin adapter kit) over the rim of the exhaust connection manifold. ● Remove the required blanking plate (located to the left and right of the appliance flue outlet) and – using the same screws – install the air baffle.
4.5.3.4 VERTICAL TERMINATION (See fig. 13) The twin flue system must be converted to the dedicated concentric flue kit for termination. ● The vertical terminal is supplied with a built-in converter box and cannot be shortened. ● A 130mm hole is required for the passage of the concentric terminal through the ceiling and/ or roof. Depending on site conditions it may be preferable to install the terminal assembly prior to fitting the twin flue pipes.
4.6.3 COLD WATER INLET (fig. 6 & 14) The appliance is supplied with a 15mm combined stopcock and double check-valve, connect a 15mm pipe to the inlet of the stopcock and tighten both nuts. 4.6.4 HOT WATER OUTLET (fig. 6 & 14) The appliance is supplied with a 15mm outlet connection, connect a 15mm pipe to the outlet connection and tighten both nuts. 4.6.5 SAFETY VALVE (fig. 6 & 14) Connect the safety valve connection pipe between the safety valve outlet and the fixing jig.
To fit the Vokera time clock: ● Remove the appliance PCB cover. ● Remove and discard the wiring harness supplied with the clock. ● Using the clock wiring harness supplied in the accessory pack, connect the 4-wires to the clock as shown in fig 16. ● Remove the clock aperture plate from the appliance. ● Remove the push-out blanking disc from the clock aperture plate (fig. 17). ● Secure the clock to the aperture plate using the screws provided with the clock (fig. 17).
SECTION 5 COMMISSIONING 5.1 GAS SUPPLY INSTALLATION Inspect the entire installation including the gas meter, test for soundness and purge. Refer to BS 6891 for specific instruction. 5.2 THE HEATING SYSTEM The appliance contains components that may become damaged or rendered inoperable by oils and/or debris that are residual from the installation of the system, consequently it is essential that the system be flushed in accordance with the following instructions.
To lower the system pressure to the required value, pull lever on head of safety valve to release water until the required figure registers on the pressure gauge (see fig. 1). Compensator tube 5.11 Outlet test-point Protective cap Inlet test-point Fig. 19 Once the burner pressure has been checked, close the DHW outlet, isolate the appliance from the electrical supply, remove the manometer, and tighten the gas valve outlet test nipple. 5.
5.12 FINAL CHECKS ENSURE ALL TEST NIPPLES ON THE APPLIANCE GAS VALVE HAVE BEN TIGHTENED AND CHECKED FOR SOUNDNESS. ● ENSURE THE APPLIANCE FLUE SYSTEM IS FITTED CORRECTLY AND IS PROPERLY SECURED. ● ENSURE ALL PIPE WORK IS RE-CHECKED FOR SOUNDNESS. ● RE-FIT APPLIANCE CASING. ● COMPLETE APPLIANCE LOGBOOK. Complete details of the boiler, controls, installation, and commissioning in the logbook supplied with the boiler. This is an important document, which must be correctly completed and handed to the user.
6.4 COMPONENT REMOVAL PROCEDURE To remove a component, access to the interior of the appliance is essential. Isolate the appliance from the electrical supply and remove the fuse. And when necessary, close all service valves on the appliance, remove the appliance casing as described in section 4.7.1, and drain the water content from the appliance via the safety valve. Ensure some water absorbent cloths are available to catch any residual water that may drip from the appliance or removed component.

SECTION 7 CHECKS, ADJUSTMENTS AND FAULT FINDING 7.1 CHECKING APPLIANCE OPERATION When carrying out any repairs or servicing to the appliance, the relevant commissioning procedure must be undertaken to ensure the continued safe operation of the appliance. Particular attention should be made to ensure gas soundness, water soundness, and the electrical integrity of the appliance. 7.2 APPLIANCE MODE OF OPERATION NOTE there must be sufficient system water pressure (min. 0.
If the temperature continues to rise and exceeds the set-point by 6oC, the burner will shut down and the boiler will perform a three-minute anticycle (timer delay). A new ignition sequence will be enabled when the 3-minute anti-cycle has been performed and the temperature at the primary thermistor has dropped 6oC below the set-point. NOTES The timer delay can be de-activated by the insertion of a ‘jumper’ on the PCB or by isolating the appliance from the electrical supply for 30 seconds.
