1. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 Introduction

Dear Customer,

Thank you for choosing Optimax 25 S, a FERROLI wall-mounted boiler of the latest generation, featuring advanced design and cutting-edge technology.

Optimax 25 S is a high-efficiency condensing pre-mix appliance for heating with extremely low emissions, running on natural gas or LPG.

The boiler consists of an aluminium laminar heat exchanger providing effective condensation of the water vapour contained in the flue gases, permitting extremely high efficiency.

Above the heat exchanger, in the boiler, there is a pre-mix burner, with a large ceramic surface, equipped with electronic ignition and ionization flame control, which achieves extremely low emissions while ensuring high reliability and long life operation.

The boiler is totally room sealed from the installation room: the air needed for combustion is drawn from outside. The boiler also includes a modulating speed fan, modulating gas valve, pumps, expansion vessel, safety valve, flow sensor, temperature sensors, a safety thermostat and a low pressure sensor.

Thanks to the twin microprocessor control and adjustment system with advanced self-diagnosis, unit operation is for the most part automatic. The power for heating is automatically governed by the control system according to the indoor and outdoor characteristics (with an optional outdoor sensor installed), the characteristics of the building and of its location.

The user only has to set the temperature desired inside the home (by means of an optional room thermostat or remote control, which is required under the building regulations 2002) or regulate the temperature of the system. The adjustment and control system will provide optimum operation throughout the year.

The display continuously provides information on the unit's operating status and it is easily possible to obtain additional information on the sensor temperatures, set-points, etc. or configure them. Any operating problems associated with the boiler or system is immediately signalled by the display and, if possible, corrected automatically.

The total length in equivalent metres of the concentric flue must not exceed the maximum lengths stated in the following table, note that each bend gives rise to the stated reduction. For example, a duct = 60/100 composed of 1 bend of 90irc + 1 horizontal metre + 2 bends of 45irc + 1 horizontal metre has a total equivalent length of 4 metres.

Vertical fl ueing

The installation of a concentric vertical flue can be carried out as follows,

Install the appliance as previously mentioned in this manual.

  1. Connect onto the flue assembly at the top of the appliance a concentric vertical adaptor part number 1KWMA71W,
  2. Use the required amount of 1mtr flue extensions (part number 1KWMA56U) inserting them spigot down ensuring the seals are well lubricated with silicone grease (not supplied) and correctly located into the sockets.
  3. If required 45irc bends (Part number1KWMA64A) may be used with a resistance value of 0.5mtrs each, the flue should be routed in such away to avoid any unnecessary deviation and thus minimise the amount of bends required.
  4. The termination should be made through our concentric flue outlet (part number 1KWMA83U) in conjunction with a roof slate pitched (part number 1KWMA82U) or flat roof (part number 1KWMA81U). The storm collar must be fixed on using the three screws provided and sealed with an external grade silicone (not supplied).
  5. For longer flue lengths a 125mm concentric flue system is available.
  6. All flue installations must comply with BS5440 part 1 and must only be of Fèrroli manufacture. The vertical flue must continually rise and be supported throughout its length. The flue must be inspected whilst commissioning the appliance to ensure it is sound throughout its length.

This information is for guidance purposes and Fèrroli will in no way be held responsible for incorrect installation following this guide.

Connection with 80 mm pipe system

The unit can be connected to a system of separate air/flue ducts for a wall or rooftop outlet as shown on the drawings 11 - 12 alongside. Numerous accessories are available on request to meet the various installation requirements. The components used most frequently are stated in tables 4 - 5. Please refer to the flue accessory catalogue or the price list for additional components.

To check you do not exceed the maximum permissible duct length, it is necessary to make a simple calculation before installation:

  1. For each component, tables 4 - 5 provide an "equivalent load loss in linear metres", depending on the position of installation of the component (with air suction or flue extraction, vertical or horizontal).
    The loss is called "equivalent in linear metres" since it is compared to the loss of one metre of duct in air suction (defined as equal to 1). For example, a bend at 90irc of 80 in flue extraction has an equivalent loss of 2.5 linear metres, i.e. it has a loss equal to that of 2.5 linear metres of duct in air suction.
  2. After defining the layout of the system of split flues, add up the losses in equivalent metres, depending on the installation position, of all the components and accessories in the system.
  3. Check that the total calculated loss is less than or equal to 75 equivalent metres, i.e. the maximum permissible for this model of boiler.

In addition, the terminal should not be nearer than 150mm (fanned draugt) or 300mm (natural draugt) to an opening in the building fabric formed for the purpose of accommodating a built-in element such as a window frame. Condensing Terminal Positions: If the flue is to be terminated at low level, then the potential effect of the plume must be considered.

The plume should not be directed: ● across a frequently used access route

- towards a window or door

- across a neighbouring property

Connection to collective fl ues or single fl ues with natural draught

If you are then going to connect the Optimax 25 S boiler to a collective flue or a single flue with natural draught, the flue must be expressly designed by professionally qualified technical personnel in conformity with the standards and rules in force.

In particular, flues must have the following characteristics:

  • Be sized according to the method of calculation stated in the standard
  • Be airtight to the products of combustion, resistant to the fumes and heat and waterproof for the condensate
  • Have a circular or quadrangular cross-section (some hydraulically equivalent sections are permissible), with a vertical progression and with no constrictions
  • Have the flue conveying the hot fumes adequately distanced or isolated from combustible materials
  • Be connected to just one unit per floor, for at most 6 units in all (8 if there is a compensation duct or opening)
  • Have no mechanical suction devices in the main ducts
  • Be at a lower pressure, all along their length, under conditions of stationary operation
  • Have at their base a collection chamber for solid materials or condensation of at least 0.5 m, equipped with a metal door with an airtight closure.

2.7 Condensate outlet connection

0,5 lt. A B 3 cm fig. 14

The boiler is equipped with an internal air-trap to drain off the condensate. Fit the inspection coupling A and the hose B, pushing it on for approximately 3 cm and securing it with a clamp.

Fill the air-trap with approximately 0.5 l. of water and connect the hose to the waste system.

Condensate discharge

Where possible the condensate should discharge into an internal soil pipe or waste system. The minimum pipe diameter required is 22 mm, a trap has already been fitted to the appliance with a flexible tail to facilitate the connection to the condensate discharge pipe.

The pipe should be a solvent weld plastic, not copper, as the condensate has a ph value of 4 (slightly acidic).

Where it is not possible to terminate internally, the condensate discharge pipe may be run outside (see below drawing).

Any external run is subject to freezing, in severe weather conditions. To avoid this the pipework should be installed to dispose of the condensate quickly, with as much as possible run internally, before passing through the wall.

Pipework external to the building should be increased in diameter to 32 or 40mm solvent weld. It should be run to a external drain or soakaway, with a maximum length of 3 metres.

If a soakaway (condensate absorption point) is used, it should be constructed as shown below.

3. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

3.1 Adjustments

All adjustment and conversion operations must be carried out by Qualified Personnel such as the personnel of the Local After-Sales Technical Service.

FERROLI declines any responsibility for damage or physical injury caused by unqualified and unauthorized persons tampering with the device.

Gas supply conversion

The unit can function with either Natural Gas or LPG and is factory-set for use with one of the two gases, as clearly shown on the packing and on the unit's dataplate. Whenever a different gas to that for which the unit is preset has to be used, a conversion kit will be required, proceeding as follows:

1 Remove the casing.
2 Open the airtight chamber.
3 Unscrew the gas coupling A on the air/gas mixer.
4 Replace the injector in the mixer with the one contained in the conversion kit.
5 Refit the coupling A and check the connection is gastight.
6 Apply the sticker, contained in the conversion kit, near the dataplate.
7 Fit the airtight chamber and casing back on.
8 Check working pressure.

3.2 System start-up

FERROLI Optimax 25 S - System start-up - 1

Commissioning must be performed by Qualified Personnel.

Checks to be made at first ignition, and after all maintenance operations that involved disconnecting from the systems or an intervention on safety devices or parts of the boiler:

Before lighting the boiler:

  • Open any isolation valves between the boiler and the systems.
  • Check the tightness of the gas system, proceeding with caution and use gas leak detection fluid to detect any leaks in connections.
  • Fill the water system and make sure that all air contained in the boiler and the system has been vented by opening the air vent valve on the boiler and any vent valves on the system.
  • Make sure there are no water leaks in the system, hot water circuits, connections or boiler.
  • Make sure the electrical system is properly connected.
  • Make sure that the unit is connected to a good earthing system.
  • Make sure there are no flammable liquids or materials in the immediate vicinity of the boiler.
  • Vent and spin the pump.
  • Ensure the flue system is correctly fitted, including terminal locations.

Ignition

  • Open the gas valve upstream of the boiler.
  • Purge the gas supply and appliance
  • Switch on the boiler fused spur.
  • The boiler is now ready to function automatically whenever the external controls call for heating.

FERROLI Optimax 25 S - Ignition - 1

In case of an electrical power failure while the boiler is working, the burner will go out. When power returns, the boiler will run the self-test cycle again, after which the burner will automatically re-ignite (if there is still demand for heat).

Checks during operation

  • Check the tightness of the gas circuit and water systems.
  • Check the efficiency of the flue and air-flue ducts while the boiler is working.
  • Check that the water is circulating properly between the boiler and the system.
  • Make sure that the gas valve modulates correctly.
  • Check the proper ignition of the boiler by performing various tests, turning it on and off with the room thermostat or remote control.
  • Make sure that the fuel consumption indicated on the meter corresponds to that given in the technical data table in chap. 4.
  • Check the parameters are programmed correctly and perform any required customization (power, temperatures, etc.).

Turning off

Press the key for 5 seconds (see fig. 1).

When the boiler is turned off with this key, the printed circuit board is still powered, heating operation is disabled and the display appears but the frost protection, will remain active.

Close the gas cock ahead of the boiler and disconnect electrical power.

FERROLI Optimax 25 S - Turning off - 1

To avoid damage caused by freezing during long shutdowns in winter, it is advisable to drain all water from the boiler, or add a suitable antifreeze to the heating system.

3.3 Maintenance

FERROLI Optimax 25 S - Maintenance - 1

The following operations are strictly reserved for Qualified Personnel, such as corgi registered engineers or Ferroli personeer.

Seasonal inspection of the boiler and fl ue

It is advisable to carry out the following checks at least once a year:

  • The control and safety devices (gas valve, flow meter, thermostats, etc.) must function correctly.
  • The flue terminal end piece and ducts must be free of obstructions and leaks.
  • The gas and water systems must be sound.
  • The burner and exchanger must be clean.
  • The electrodes must be free of scale and correctly positioned.
  • The water pressure in the heating system must be approx 1 bar; otherwise, bring it to that value.
  • The expansion vessel must be filled to 1 bar cold with zero system pressure.
  • The gas flow and pressure must correspond to that given in the respective tables.
  • The circulating pumps must be vented and free of debris, spun prior to operation.

Opening the casing

To open the boiler casing, you need to follow the sequence given below and the instructions of fig. 17.

1 Using a screwdriver, fully unscrew the 2 screws "A"
2 Open by lowering the panel "B"

After these checks, make sure there are no gas leaks.

Combustion analysis

It is possible to analyse the combustion through the air and flue sampling points shown in fig. 18.

To make the measurement, it is necessary to:

1) Open the air and flue sampling points
2) Insert the probe;
3) Press RESET key for 3 times in the 3 seconds to turn on TEST mode;
4) Wait 10 minutes for the boiler to stabilize
5) Take the measurement.
6) CO₂ for Natural gas 8,7 to 9,0% LPG 9,5 to 10%.

Analyses made with an unstabilized boiler can cause measurement errors.

3.4 Troubleshooting

Fault Diagnosis

In the event of operating problems or trouble, the display blinks and a fault identification code appears.

There are faults that in order to restore operation the RESET button must be pressed or (ref.2 - fig. 1); if the boiler fails to start, it is necessary to resolve the fault (from no. 1 to no. 24). Other faults cause temporary shutdowns that are automatically reset as soon as the value comes back within the boiler's normal working range (faults from 25 to 46).

When the boiler starts functioning normally again, the display stops blinking and the fault code disappears.
