1.8 The advice and instructions given in this document covers, as
far as possible, the foreseeable situations which may arise. Contact
The Worcester Technical Department, Telephone: [phone],
for advice on specific installations.
The Benchmark initiative is the new code of practice to
encourage the correct installation, commissioning and servicing of
domestic central heating boilers and system equipment.
The 'checklist' is a vital document that must be completed by
the installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the
boiler has been installed and commissioned according to the
manufacturers instructions.
Without the completion of the checklist, manufacturers may refuse
to respond to a call-out from a householder, who will be advised
that he or she must call back the installer, who has not fulfilled his
obligations to record the information required by the initiative.
It is important that:
The services and the system are properly flushed as specified.
The User is clearly instructed on the correct operation of the
appliance.
The benefits of regular servicing are explained - to maintain the
efficiency and extend the life of the appliance.
2.1. GENERAL INFORMATION
2.1.1 The appliance is set to provide the maximum output of
24kW to the domestic hot water and to the central heating .
2.1.2. The domestic water section of the appliance is suitable for
mains water pressures of up to 10bar.
2.1.3. Conversion kits are available to convert the appliance
from Natural Gas to Propane operation and vice versa.
2.2 ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Mains supply: 230V ~ 50 Hz. 140Watts.
External fuse: 3A. Internal fuses: T 2A (F1), and T 1A (F2).
2.3 GAS SUPPLY.
Check the data plate (located on the inner cover of the appliance)
to ensure the appliance has been set up for the correct gas
supply. The appliance can be set up for either of the following
gases: Natural Gas (G20) or Propane (G31). A conversion kit is
available to change the appliance from one gas to the other.
The boiler requires a gas flow of 2.9 m
3
/h of natural gas (G20) or
1.09 m
3
/h of LPG (G31).
The meter governor or regulator should deliver a dynamic
pressure of 20mbar for natural gas or 37mbar for propane at the
appliance, which is about 18.5mb or 35.5 mbar at gas valve inlet
pressure test point.
The complete installation, including the gas meter (G20), must be
tested for soundness and purged. Refer to BS 6891.
