INSTALLATION
(must be carried out by an authori-
sed service centre, CAT, or by personnel authorised to issue
a certifi cate of conformity)
Refer to local regulations in the country of use for anything
that is not specifi cally covered in this manual. In Italy, refer
to standard UNI 10683 in addition to any Regional or Local
Health Authority regulations.
If the boiler is to be installed in a block of apartments, consult
the block administration before installing.
VERIFY COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER
DEVICES
The boiler must NOT be installed in the same room as extrac-
tors, type B heating appliances and other appliances that may
affect its operation.
VERIFYTHE POWER SUPPLY
CONNECTION
(the plug must be accessible)
The boiler is supplied with a power cable that is to be con-
nected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably fi tted with a ma-
gnetothermic switch. Voltage variations exceeding 10% can
damage the boiler (unless already installed, an appropriate
differential switch must be fi tted).
The electrical system must comply with the law; particularly
verify the effi ciency of the earthing system.
The power line must have a suitable cross-section for the boiler
power.
An inadequate earthing system can cause anomalies for which
Edilkamin cannot be held liable.
FIRE SAFETY DISTANCES AND LOCATION
For correct operation the boiler must be level.
Check the load-bearing capacity of the fl oor. The boiler must
be installed in compliance with the following safety conditions:
- minimum safety distance at the sides and back from medium
level fl ammable materials: 40 cm
- easily fl ammable materials must not be located less than 80
cm from the front of the boiler.
- if the boiler is installed on a fl ammable fl oor, a sheet of heat
insulating material must be placed between the boiler and the
fl oor, which protrudes by at least 20 cm at the sides and 40 cm
at the front.
Flammable objects must not be placed above the boiler or at a
distance that is any less than the stipulated safety distances.
If connected to wooden walls or other fl ammable materials,
the smoke exhaust pipe must be appropriately insulated with
ceramic fi bre or other similar material.
AIR INLET: to be mandatorily implemented.
The room where the boiler is placed must have an air inlet with
a cross-section of at least 80 cm² so as to guarantee suffi cient
air supply to the boiler for combustion.
INSTALLATION
SMOKE OUTLET
The boiler must have its own smoke outlet (the smoke cannot
be discharged into a smoke fl ue used by other devices).
The smoke is discharged through the 10 cm diameter outlet at
the back of the boiler.
A T-junction must be set up with a condensation collection
stopper at the beginning of the vertical section.
The smoke outlet must be connected to outside by means of
suitable steel pipes EN 1856 certifi ed.
The pipe must be hermetically sealed. The material used to seal
and if necessary insulate the pipes, must be resistant to high
temperatures (high temperature silicone or mastic).
The only horizontal section allowed may be up to 2 m long.
It may have up to two 90° bends.
If the outlet is not fi tted into a chimney fl ue, a vertical section
and a wind guard are required (reference UNI 10683).
The vertical duct can be internal or external.
If the smoke channel (part of the pipe that goes from the boiler
to the chimney fl ue) is outside, it must be appropriately insula-
ted.
If the smoke channel is fi tted inside a chimney fl ue, the latter
must be suitable for solid fuel.
If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter it must be improved by
entering a pipe that has a suitable cross-section and is made of
suitable material (e.g. 100 mm diameter steel).
All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for inspec-
tion.
If it is not removable, it must have inspection holes to allow for
cleaning.
TYPICAL EXAMPLES
Fig. 1
A: insulated steel chimney fl u, Insulated
B: minimum height 1.5 m, and however beyond the eaves of the roof
C-E: air intake from outside (through section at least 80 cm²)
D: steel chimney fl ue inside existing masonry chimney fl ue
CHIMNEY POT
The main characteristics are:
- an internal cross-section at the base, which is the same as that
of the chimney fl ue
- an outlet cross-section which is no smaller than twice that of
the chimney fl ue
- its position must be high enough to catch the wind and avoid
downdraft areas in turbulent wind..
