The ISOMAX F boiler is a wall mounted modulating combination boiler with electronic ignition providing central heating and stored hot water.
The boiler is of the I2E+ category for use with Natural Gas (G20) as distributed in the United Kingdom, or Butane (G30), Propane (G31) or Towns Gas (G130) with the appropriate conversion kit.
The boiler has a fan assisted balanced flue which both discharges the products of combustion to and draws the combustion air from the outside of the room.
The boiler is suitable for top outlet flue connection only but, can be fitted with horizontal flue, vertical flue or twin-pipe flue. Refer to flue catalogue for further details.
Both the central heating and domestic hot water temperature are user adjustable from the boiler control panel.
Domestic hot water demand always has priority over heating demand.
The boiler is designed for use as part of a sealed water central heating system with fully pumped circulation. The pump, expansion vessel and associated safety devices are all fitted within the boiler.
The boiler can be installed against either an external wall or on an adjacent inside wall, that is, the flue system will pass directly to the rear or to either side to the terminal fitted on the outside wall face.
The installation must be carried out by a qualified registered person in accordance with the relevant requirements of The Building Regulations, The Water Byelaws, The Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations and any applicable local regulations.
These instructions should be carefully followed for the safe and economical use of your boiler.

DRAINING
Protection against freezing
If the boiler is to be out of use for any long periods during severe weather conditions, it is recommended that the whole system, including the boiler, be drained to avoid the risk of freezing.
If in doubt, consult your servicing company.
The ISOMAX has a built in frost protection device that protects the boiler from freezing. If the boiler is to be left and there is a risk of frost, ensure that the gas and electrical supplies are left connected. The frost protection device will light the boiler when the temperature of the boiler water falls below 6°C. When the temperature reaches 16°C, the boiler stops.
Note: This device works irrespective of any room thermostat setting and will protect the complete heating system.
SERVICING/MAINTENANCE
To ensure the continued efficient and safe operation of the boiler, it is recommended that it is checked and serviced at regular intervals.
The frequency of servicing will depend upon the installation conditions and usage but, in general, once a year should be enough.
Draining and filling
Caution: The boiler is installed as part of a sealed system which must only be drained and filled by a competent person.
Heating safety valve
CAUTION: A heating safety valve with a discharge pipe is fitted to this boiler.
The valve MUST NOT BE TOUCHED except by a qualified registered person. If the valve discharges at any time, switch the boiler off and isolate it from the electrical supply. Contact your installation/service company.
Pressure/temperature relief valve
CAUTION: A domestic hot water pressure relief valve, with a discharge pipe is fitted to this boiler. The valve MUST NOT BE TOUCHED except by a qualified registered person. If the valve discharges at any time, switch the boiler off and isolate it from the electrical supply. Contact your installation/service company.
Cleaning
The boiler casing can be cleaned with a damp cloth followed by a dry cloth to polish.
Do not use abrasive or solvent cleaners.

HEATING SYSTEM DESIGN
- The ISOMAX is compatible with any type of installation.
- Heating surfaces may consist of radiators, convectors or fan assisted convectors.
- The ISOMAX can be piped directly to an under-floor heating system without the need for a mixing bottle. The maximum central heating flow temperature can be set to 53°C on the boiler printed circuit board during commissioning.
- Pipe sectional areas shall be determined in accordance with normal practices, using the output/ pressure curve (diagram 4). The distribution system shall be calculated in accordance with the output requirements of the actual system, not the maximum output of the boiler. However, provision shall be made to ensure sufficient flow so that the temperature difference between the flow and return pipes be less than or equal to 20^ . The minimum flow is 400 l/h.
-
The piping system shall be routed so as to avoid any air pockets and facilitate permanent venting of the installation. Bleed fittings must be provided at every high point of the system and on all radiators.
-
The total volume of water permitted for the heating system depends, amongst other things, on the static head in the cold condition. The expansion vessel on the boiler is pressurised at 0,5 bar (corresponding to a static head of 5 m w.g.) and allows a maximum system volume of 160 litres for an average temperature of 75^ and a maximum service pressure of 3 bar. This pressure setting can be modified at commissioning stage if the static head differs. An additional expansion vessel can be fitted to the system if required, see diagram 8.
- Provision shall be made for a drain valve at the lowest point of the system.
- Where thermostatic radiator valves are fitted, not all radiators must be fitted with this type of valve, and in particular, where the room thermostat is installed.
- In the case of an existing installation, it is ESSENTIAL that the system is thoroughly flushed prior to installing the new boiler.
Filling the system
A filling device must be fitted to the system to initially fill the system and replace water lost during servicing, see diagram 8.
DOMESTIC HOT WATER SYSTEM DESIGN
- Copper tubing or plastic Hep_20 may be used for the domestic hot water system. Unnecessary pressure losses should be avoided.
- A flow restrictor limiting the flow through the boiler to a maximum of 16 l/min is fitted to the boiler.
- The boiler will operate with a minimum supply pressure of 0,7 bar, but under reduced flow rate. Best operating comfort will be obtained from a supply pressure of 1 bar.
'Hard Water Areas'
In areas where the water is 'hard', more than 200mg/litre, it is recommended that a proprietary scale reducer is fitted in the cold water supply to the boiler.

Step. 1
The internal safety valves have been tee'd together and the discharge pipe run so that it exits at the right hand bottom of the boiler (diagram 6) (D2). The tundish (supplied) must be used with this outlet within the normal guidelines and code of practice (diagram 6a).
Step 2
Tee the domestic safety valve (diagram 7) (28) outlet to the heating safety valve (10) outlet together. You can either extend this pipe horizontally to the outside wall. WARNING, It must not discharge above an entrance or window or any type of public access area, the discharge must be extend using no less than 15 mm o.d. pipe to discharge in a visible position outside the building, facing downward preferably over a drain. The pipe must have a continuous fall and be routed to a position so that any discharge of water, possibly steam, cannot create any danger to persons, damage to property or external electrical components and wiring.
alternatively: The discharge pipe can be tee'd into the other discharge pipe after the tundish (diagram 6) provided that it has a continuous fall and that provisions are made for the size of discharge pipe immediately after the tundish (see diagram 6a).
Safety valve discharge
Domestic hot water supply options
Under normal circumstances, the domestic hot water storage temperature inside the boiler can be stored between 37 and 60°C. It is recommended that the boiler storage temperature is set by the user to the maximum of 60°C - this will ensure a more plentiful supply of hot water.
It may be desirable to provide hot water to separate outlets at different temperatures (for example, to provide a limited temperature to prevent the risk of scalding). To be able to do this, a thermostatic mixing valve is supplied with the Isomax boiler (factory set to 43°C) and can be fitted during the installation procedure.
There are 2 options for the domestic hot water supply :
1 - Piping the hot water supply without the use of the mixing valve to provide hot water to all taps at the same temperature.
2 - Piping the hot water supply using the mixing valve (supplied) to provide hot water at boiler hot water "set temperature" to one tap and thermostatically controlled hot water to another tap(s).
To pipe the hot water supply using the mixing valve, refer to diagram 8. This shows one outlet supplying hot water at the boiler hot water "set temperature" and one hot water outlet at a temperature pre-set at the mixing valve. The mixing valve can be set between 35 and 60°C. It is recommended that the valve is adjusted (and locked) by the installer to the desired temperature.
The connections to the mixing valve are :
H - Hot water supply from boiler
C - Reduced cold water supply
MIX - Thermostatically controlled outlet
Warning : It is strongly recommended that the cold water supply to the mixing valve is taken from the reduced side of the pressure reducing valve (supplied)
Note 1 : The mixing valve is fitted with two in-line strainer, one on the hot inlet and one on the cold inlet. For servicing details of these, refer to the separate instructions supplied with the mixing valve.
Note 2 : The mixing valve incorporates a "rapid failsafe" device which will automatically close the valve to safety in the event of supply failure on either hot or cold water.
The discharge must be extended using not less than 22 m o.d. pipe, to discharge in a visible position outside the building, facing downward preferably over a drain.
The pipe must have a continuous fall and be routed to a position so that any discharge of water, possibly boiling or steam, cannot create any danger to persons, damage to property or external electrical components and wiring. Tighten all pipe connection joints.
Gas connection
- The supply from the governed gas meter must be of adequate size to provide a constant inlet working pressure of 20 mbar (8 in w.g.).
To avoid low gas pressure problems, it is recommended that the gas supply is connected using 22 mm pipe. - On completion, the gas installation must be tested using the pressure drop method and purged in accordance with the current issue of BS6891.
Gas Safety (Installation and use) Regulations
In your interests and that of gas safety, it is the law that ALL gas appliances are installed and serviced by a qualified registered person in accordance with the above regulations.
Clearances
The position of the boiler must be such that there is adequate space for servicing.
The recommended clearances are:
20 mm either side of the boiler.
600 mm at the front of the boiler.
300 mm below the boiler.
- Place template on wall in required position, making allowances for the necessary clearances etc.
Note: It is permissible to install the boiler with smaller clearances than those quoted above PROVIDING that adequate consideration is given for Servicing/Repairs at a later date. If any doubt exists, contact the Saunier Duval Technical Helpline 01773 828400.
- Mark the position of the holes for the hanging bracket and jig.
- Drill, plug and fix the hanging bracket to the wall using suitable screws.
- Check that the hanging bracket is level.
- Drill plug and fix the fixing jig to the wall.
- For horizontal flue system, mark the position for the flue hole as follows:
Flue to rear of boiler
- Mark correct position of hole from template.
Flue to side of boiler
- Mark the horizontal centre line for the hole on the rear wall. Extend the horizontal centre line to the side wall and mark the vertical centre line of flue hole as shown in diagram 9.
Cutting the flue hole
- Making allowance for the slope of the flue, cut hole in external wall, preferably using a core drill. For installations with internal and external access use a 10.5 mm diameter core drill.
For installations with internal access only use a 125 mm diameter core drill.
Important
When cutting the flue hole and when extending the flue centre line to a side wall, remember that the flue system must have a fall of about 35 mm per metre of flue DOWNWARD towards the terminal. There must NEVER be a downward incline towards the boiler.

The ISOMAX incorporates a visual display that indicates fault conditions, should they occur.
In the event of a fault, the display will indicate, by means of pictograms and/or letters and numbers, exactly in which area the fault lies.
Should the boiler fail to operate during Commissioning, the most likely fault is that the gas supply to the boiler has not been turned on or purged sufficiently or that there is no pressure in the heating system. These are indicated as follows:
No gas supply

text_image
This will be indicated on the display as a pictogram of a spark. To rectify this, pro- ceed as follows:- Switch off the boiler at the On/Off push button.
- Rectify the gas supply problem.
- Restart the boiler by pressing the On/Off button.

Insufficient system pressure

text_image
This will be indicated on the display as a flashing warning indi- ating the systemTo rectify this the system must be re-filled, refer to 'Commissioning'.
Other faults
These are indicated on the display by a fault code and a telephone symbol. Further information on the fault codes can be found in the 'Servicing Instructions'.
General safety devices
Air flow rate safety device
If an obstruction, even partial, of the flue occurs, for any reason whatsoever, the built in safety system of the boiler will turn the boiler OFF and the fan will continue to run.
The boiler will be ready to operate when the fault has been cleared.
Overheat safety
In case of boiler overheating, the overheat thermostat will turn the boiler off. The thermostat, located on the heat exchanger flow pipe, will need to be manually reset.
In case of power supply failure
The boiler no longer operates.
As soon as power supply is restored, the boiler will be automatically restarted.
Frost protection
The ISOMAX has a built in frost protection device that protects the boiler from freezing. If the boiler is to be left and there is a risk of frost, ensure that the gas and electrical supplies are left connected. The frost protection device will light the boiler when the temperature of the boiler water falls below 6^ C. When the temperature reaches 16^ C, the boiler stops.
Note : This device works irrespective of any room thermostat setting and will protect the complete heating system.
CHANGING GAS TYPE
Should it become necessary to change the gas type, a modification kit will be required.
This modification must only be carried out by a suitably qualified engineer.
Conversion natural Gas (G20) to G30/G31 Part No. 86216.
Gas valve setting
All boilers are tested and factory set during manufacture. Should it be necessary to reset a gas valve, for example, after replacement, proceed as follows:
- Shut down boiler.
Minimum setting
- Remove one electrical connector from the modulating gas valve coil, see diagram 23.
- Connect a suitable pressure gauge.
- Set the OFF/Summer/Winter switch to the 'Summer' position.
- Adjust the domestic hot water temperature adjuster to maximum setting.
- Remove the protective cover from the gas valve adjuster.
- Turn nut 'A', see diagram 23:
CLOCKWISE: To increase the pressure.
ANTICLOCKWISE: To decrease the pressure.
Maximum setting
- Reconnect the electrical connector removed from the modulating gas valve coil.
- Remove the protective cover from the gas valve adjuster.
- Turn nut 'B', see diagram 23:
CLOCKWISE: To increase the pressure.
ANTICLOCKWISE: To decrease the pressure.
After adjustment, refit the cover to the gas valve adjuster.
Bypass
The ISOMAX has a built-in bypass. This must be adjusted according to the requirements of the system, refer to the flow rate pressure curve (diagram 4). The boiler is supplied with the built-in bypass open a half a turn. It is adjusted by turning the bypass screw (a), see diagram 24. Turn the screw clockwise to close the bypass. When using thermostatic radiator valves (TRV's) on all of the radiators, it is essential that a separate, adjustable bypass of 15 mm minimum diameter is fitted between the flow and return of the heating circuit, see diagram 8. Any bypass must be fitted before system controls.

Before trying to operate the boiler make sure that :
- All gas supply cocks are open and that the gas supply has been purged of air.
- The heating system pressure is at least 1 bar.
- There is a permanent mains supply to the boiler.
- The fuse on the PCB is intact.
WARNING. Always isolate the boiler from the electrical supply before carrying out any electrical replacement work.
Always check for gas soundness after any service work.
Should there be any doubt about the voltage supply to any of the components, it is possible to carry out a simple electrical test to ensure all is operational in that area.
To carry out the electrical test, gain access to the main Printed Circuit Board (PCB), as described previously, and measure the voltages according to table 1.
Table 1
| Voltage | Measured value | Measuring point |
| 230 Volt | 230 V AC | Between terminals H8.1 and H8.2 |
| 24 Volt | maximum 33V DC minimum 20V DC | Between terminals B2.4 and B2.7 |
| 15 Volt | 15V ± 0.5V | Between terminals B2.4 and B2.2 |
| Display | 5V ± 0.5V | Between terminals B2.4 and B4.2 |
The ISOFAST has an on-board fault diagnostic system. Should a fault occur on the boiler, the warning LED at the top of the user display ⚠️ will illuminate and the LCD display will indicate the precise area where the fault has occurred.
