Frequently Asked Questions - BRAVA ONE OF SIME

How to turn on the boiler?
After checking that the gas and water valves are open and that the system pressure is between 1 and 1.2 bar, set the main switch to ON. Press the ⎻ button for at least 1 second to select SUMMER or WINTER mode. Open a hot water tap to start DHW production.
How to adjust the heating temperature?
Turn the heating knob (mark 1 on the panel) to adjust the flow temperature between 20 and 80 °C. The value is displayed on the screen.
What to do in case of alarm 'AL 02' (low water pressure)?
Alarm 'AL 02' indicates insufficient water pressure. Check the pressure gauge: cold pressure should be 1-1.2 bar. If it is lower, open the filling valve (mark 2) until correct pressure is reached, then close it. Press the OK RESET button for more than 3 seconds to reset.
How to restore water pressure to 1 bar?
Locate the filling group under the boiler (mark 2 in the figure). Open it slowly while monitoring the pressure gauge until the pressure reaches 1-1.2 bar. Close the filling valve. Bleed air from radiators if necessary.
What does the symbol 'SE' on the display mean?
The symbol SE ('Service request') indicates that the annual maintenance interval has been reached. Contact the Technical Service to schedule an intervention.
How to switch to summer/winter mode?
Press the ⎻ button for at least 1 second to cycle through the modes: Stand-by, Summer (heating only) and Winter (heating + DHW). The corresponding symbols (sun or snowflake) are displayed on the screen.
What to do in case of prolonged absence?
Put the boiler in Stand-by by pressing ⎻. Turn the main switch to OFF and close the gas valve. In case of frost risk, do not cut the power supply: leave the boiler in Stand-by with the switch ON and gas open so that the antifreeze function remains active.
How to clean the outside of the boiler?
Use a damp cloth with water and mild soap. For stubborn stains, you can add a little alcohol. Never use abrasive products or solvents.
Can I use the boiler in case of frost?
Yes, the boiler is protected by an automatic antifreeze function. For it to work, leave the main switch ON and the gas valve open, even when absent. The boiler will start if the water temperature drops below the programmed threshold (default 3 °C).
What to do if the burner does not light and the screen shows 'AL 06'?
Alarm 'AL 06' means no flame detection. Check that the gas valve is open, gas pressure is sufficient, and the electrode is clean and properly positioned. Press OK RESET for more than 3 seconds to attempt to reset. If failure persists after two attempts, turn off the gas and call a technician.

5 DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

5.1 Characteristics

Brava One OF are last generation low temperature wall mounted boilers which Sime has produced for heating and domestic hot water production. The main design choices made by Sime for the Brava One OF boilers are:

  • the atmospheric burner combined with a copper heat exchanger for heating and a rapid heat exchanger for DHW
  • the open combustion chamber which classifies the "Type B" boiler in relation to the room where it is installed
  • the command and control microprocessor electronic board not only allows a better management of the heating system and the system for domestic hot water production but it can also be connected to air thermostats or a remote control (with an Open Therm protocol), an auxiliary sensor for the connection of any possible solar kits or to an external sensor. If this is the case, the boiler temperature varies on the basis of the external temperature according to the selected optimal climatic curve allowing for significant energy and economic savings.
    Other special features of the Brava One OF boilers are:
  • the anti-freeze function which activates automatically if the temperature of the water inside the boiler falls below the threshold of the value set at parameter "tS 1.0" and, if there is an external sensor, if the external temperature falls below the threshold of the value set at parameter "tS 1.1".
  • the anti-blocking function of the pump and diverter valve, this activates automatically every 24 hours if no request for heat has been made
  • the chimney sweep function lasts 15 minutes and makes the job of the qualified technician easier when measuring the parameters and combustion efficiency and when checking gas pressure at the nozzles
  • screen display of the operating and self-diagnostic parameters with error code display when the fault occurs. This makes repair interventions easier and allows appliance operation to be restored correctly.

5.2 Check and safety devices

The Brava One OF boilers are equipped with the following check and safety devices:

  • thermal safety sensor 100°C
  • smoke thermostat
  • 3 bar relief valve
  • heating water pressure switch
  • delivery sensor
  • DHW sensor.

CAUTION

The manufacturer declines all liability for any damage caused by an incorrect implementation of the smoke outlet or for an excessive use of additives.

6.6 Cleaning the system

Before installing the appliance on a newly constructed system or replacing a heat generator on an existing system, it is important that the system is thoroughly cleaned to remove sludge, slag, dirt, residue etc.

Before removing an old heat generator from an existing system, it is recommended that the user:

  • puts a descaling additive into the water system
  • allows the system to work with the generator active for a few days
  • drains the dirty water from the system and flushes the system with clean water once or more than once.

If the old generator has already been removed or is not available, replace it with a pump to circulate water in the system and then proceed as described above.

Once cleaning operations have been carried out and before installing the new appliance, it is recommended that a fluid is added to the water system to protect it from corrosion and deposits.

SIME BRAVA ONE OF - Cleaning the system - 1

CAUTION

  • For further information on the type of additive and usage, please contact the appliance manufacturer.

6.7 Water system treatment

When filling and restoring the system it is good practice to use water with:

- aspect: clear if possible

- pH: 6÷8

- hardness: < 25°f.

If the water characteristics are different from those indicated, it is recommended that a safety filter is used on the water delivery pipe to retain impurities, and a chemical treatment system to protect against possible deposits and corrosion which could affect boiler operation.

If the systems are only low temperature systems, it is recommended that a product is used to prevent the development of bacteria.

In any case, please refer to and comply with the legislation and specific technical standards in force in the country where the appliance will be used.
