Anti-legionella recommendations (European standard CEN/TR 16355)

Information

Legionella is a small bacterium, of stick-like form, and is found naturally in fresh water.

Legionnaire's disease is a serious pulmonary infection caused by inhalation of the Legionella pneumophila bacterium and other species of Legionella. The bacterium is frequently to be found in the plumbing of houses, hotels and water used in A/C and air cooling systems. The most effective measure against infection is to prevent the bacterium proliferating in water circuits.

European standard CEN/TR 16355 provides guidelines for preventing the proliferation of Legionella in drinking water systems, without substituting applicable local legislation.

General recommendations

"Conditions favourable to the proliferation of Legionella". The following conditions are favourable to the proliferation of Legionella:

• Water temperature in the range 25 - 50^ . To reduce the proliferation of Legionella, the water temperature be kept with these limits to prevent them growing or reduce their growth to a minimum. If this is not possible, the drinking water system must be sanitised thermally;
• Stagnant water. To prevent water stagnating for a long time, the drinking water system must be flushed or made to run abundantly at least once a week;
  Nutrients, biofilms and sediment in the circuit, including boilers, etc. Sediment may promote the proliferation of Legionella and should be regularly eliminated from water storage devices, boilers and expansion/holding tanks (for instance, once a year).

As regards storage heater like the present, if:

1) the appliance is switched off for several months at a time or
2) the water temperature is kept constant in the range 25 - 50^ ,
the Legionella bacterium may grow inside the tank. If such circumstances, to reduce the proliferation of the bacterium, one must run a thermal sanitisation cycle.
This cycle is suited to use in domestic hot water systems and complies with the guidelines for the prevention of Legionella given in Table 2 of standard CEN/TR 16355 (see below).

However, the thermal disinfection cycle does not kill all Legionella bacteria in the storage tank. It follows that if the water temperature setting is less than 55^ , the Legionella bacterium infection may reoccur.

Caution: the water temperature in the tank can cause immediate serious burns. Children, disabled persons and the aged are particularly at risk of burns. Check the water temperature before taking a bath or shower.

Correct operation of the protection system REQUIRES A PERMA-NENT POWER SUPPLY (network or batteries). The appliance cannot, in fact, be left without a power supply for more than 48 hours.

4.4.2 HPC

The boiler protection anode is controlled by an electronic device powered at the network current.

In case of system operating in day/night mode, during the night the protection is guaranteed by the PROfessional TECH anode, while during the day the protection is guaranteed by the magnesium anode.

ATTENTION: The anti-corrosion system cannot stay without power supply more than 1 week.

• Electric water heaters, designed for a night-time power supply, are fitted with Ni-MH batteries which are charged every night, thereby protecting the boiler during the day.

CAUTION: The batteries do not have an indefinite lifespan: it makes good sense to replace them once they have been used for one or two years.

In order to guarantee full boiler protection, any faulty batteries must be replaced. If the batteries are not replaced, the guarantee will become void.

OPERATION

1. Introduction

1.1. User considerations

1. The installation of the water heater is the responsibility of the purchaser.
2. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
3. The end user is responsible for recycling the appliance once it can no longer be used. For further information, please consult the introduction of this booklet 1.1. - Regulations relating to transportation, storage and recycling.

2. Operating advice

2.1. Temperature adjustment

We recommend the thermostat is not set to its maximum position, in order to avoid limescale build-up and prevent burns. It is nevertheless essential to find a suitable compromise so as to avoid bacterial proliferation while trying to prevent the water heater from experiencing unnecessary limescale build-up.

On the other hand, in order to prevent burns, a suitable mixer should be used so that the temperature does not exceed 50^ at any of the drawing points. This is a compulsory regulation in France.

Advice

When using a mixer at a drawing point, we recommend that the temperature is set to approximately 60^ .

2.2. Maintenance

Empty the appliance annually (twice a year if the water has been treated with a softening agent) in order to:

1. check the condition of the magnesium anode;
2. remove all deposits inside the boiler.

Contact your installer.

2.3. Indicator lights

2.3.1 Products PROfessional TECH steatite range

The boiler protection anode is controlled by an electronic device powered at the network current or using a battery designed for systems operating in day/night mode, in order to keep the boiler protected during the day.

The PROfessional TECH system cannot be left without a power supply for over 48 hours

Indicator light PROTECTION ON: light ON

Light OFF = anti-corrosion protection defect : replace the battery NIMH 9V. If the defect goes on, contact your installer.

Indicator light: HEATING ON

Light ON= under heating

Light OFF = out of heating

If connected to the mains with a dual timer schedule or exclusive night-time schedule (only for models with battery), the green indicator light switches on but is very weak for the first 48 hours in accordance with the charge status of the battery. Check the indication light after 48 hours of operation.

Advice In order to guarantee full boiler protection (green light illuminated), any faulty batteries must be replaced. If the batteries are not replaced, the guarantee will become void. It makes good sense to replace them once they have been used for one or two years.

2.3.2 Products HPC

The boiler protection anode is controlled by an electronic device powered at the network current, in order to keep the boiler protected during the night.

In products HPC, the protection is however guaranteed during the day by the magnesium anode.

ATTENTION: The anti-corrosion system cannot stay without power supply more than 1 week.

BRANCHEMENT HC/HP

In case of installation with night-time power supply only, in order to guarantee the boiler protection,

AT LEAST ONCE PER YEAR check regularly the functioning of the Protection light, forcing the electrical connection in manual mode ON.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS

1. Maintenance

Empty the appliance annually (twice a year if the water has been treated with a softening agent) in order to:

1. check the condition of the magnesium anode;
2. remove all deposits inside the boiler.

We strongly recommend that the performance of the water softener is checked regularly.

The residual hardness cannot be lower than 15^ for THER, STEA, and PTEC products. Instead the residual hardness cannot be lower than 8^ for HPC products.

1.1. Emptying

Cut off the electricity supply before performing any work on the appliance.
Shut off the cold water supply at the inlet.
Open the hot water tap to draw water.
Open the emptying valve on the safety assembly and the water will flow out of the drainage hole.

1.2. Build-up removal - Checking the anode

Empty the appliance (see above).
Remove the protection element and unscrew the base (some residual water may leak out).
Clean the boiler: without using metal objects or chemical agents, remove any build-up on electrical elements or on the bush (steatite), on the corresponding casing and on the base of the boiler.
If a magnesium anode is used, check its condition: the magnesium anode is consumed progressively in accordance with the water quality, in order to prevent corrosion of the boiler. If the diameter is smaller than 15mm (for the armoured range) / 10mm (for the steatite range), or if the total volume is lower than 50% of the initial volume, the anode should be replaced.
Use a new seal every time the base is replaced after being removed.
When screwing in the bolts again, use a "cross-tightening" technique. The tightening torque should be between 18 and 20Nm .

CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS

PROBLEM

EN

① Replacing or resetting the thermostat

If the thermostat is deactivated, reset it and establish the cause (short-circuit, faulty thermostat, etc.).

CAUTION: Every thermostat is designed to be reset a maximum of two or three times only!

② Replacing the heating element

Check the Ohmic value of the heating element and, if necessary, replace it. A null or an infinite value indicates that the heating element must be replaced.

Armoured range

The appliance must be emptied before the armoured heating element may be replaced.

Steatite range - PROfessional TECH steatite range

It is not necessary to empty the appliance before replacing the heating element. During a Technical Assistance procedure for a steatite water heater, it is absolutely necessary to replace the plastic separator between the thermostat and the heating element in the water heater as this guarantees the correct operation of the appliance.

Picture 17 - Plastic separator / A: plastic separator

③ Replacing the electronic circuit

PROfessional TECH PTEC steatite range

Before performing any work, make sure you have isolated the appliance from the electricity supply network. The replacement of the electronic circuit is a very simple process. After removing the plastic protection:

Disconnect the storage cell (press-fit connector on the storage cell).
Disconnect the 2 wires running from the electronic circuit to the power supply terminal board.
Disconnect the fast coupling connector with the false movement protection device which links the circuit to the boiler and the electrode.
Disconnect the electronic circuit from the support (plastic material clips on the corners).
Replace the faulty circuit with a new one.

Repeat the procedure described above in the reverse order.

④ Replace the battery.

PROfessional TECH steatite range

The storage cell is replaced by disconnecting the press-fit connector and replacing the old storage cell with a new rechargeable one, Ni-Mh 9 volt 150mAh minimum.
