3.3 Maintenance
IMPORTANT
ALL MAINTENANCE WORK AND REPLACEMENTS MUST BE CARRIED OUT
B
BY SKILLED QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
Before carrying out any operation inside the boiler, disconnect the power
and close the gas cock upstream. Otherwise there may be a danger of explo-
sion, electric shock, suffocation or poisoning.
Periodical check
To ensure lasting proper operation of the unit, it is necessary to have an annual inspection carried out by qualified per-
sonnel, providing for the following:
•
Heat exchanger check and cleaning with suitable products if dirty or clogged.
The exchanger can be cleaned only when its temperature is under 40°C.
Clean only with suitable products approved by the manufacturer, e.g.:
ALU CLEANGEL
BIO HALL LIQUID
•
Check and cleaning (if necessary) of burner (do not use chemical products or wire brushes).
•
Check and cleaning of electrodes, which must be free of deposits and properly positioned.
•
Check of gaskets and seals (burner, sealed chamber, etc.).
•
Check and cleaning of sludge remover filters and system filters.
•
Check, cleaning and filling of condensate drain traps.
•
Check of wiring, contacts, electrical actuators.
•
Check and cleaning of generator air inlets and boiler room air intakes.
•
Check and cleaning of fume evacuation duct-manifold-flue system.
•
Check of expansion tank and precharge.
•
Check of correct and stable system water pressure, ensuring conformity with the required working pressure.
The use of automatic filling systems for reinstatement of operating conditions
B
must provide for adequate treatment of the water (see *** 'System water charac-
teristics' on page 207 ***)
•
check of heating system water chemical and physical parameters (see *** 'System water characteristics' on page 207 ***)
•
water and gas system tightness check
•
check of correct and stable gas supply pressure to the plant (20 mbar for operation with natural gas); any fluctuations
or pressure drops below the declared value can create malfunctioning and stops with need for manual resetting.
•
check of correct burner ignition and operation of control and safety devices (gas valve, flow meter, thermostats, etc.)
•
check of circulating pump operation, freeing them when necessary
•
fume analysis and check of combustion parameters
The boiler casing, control panel and aesthetic parts can be cleaned with a damp, soft cloth, if necessary
A
soaked in soapy water. Do not use abrasive detergents and solvents.
