IMPORTANT
•
Before pressurising the central heating tank (primary), you should
first pressurise the domestic hot water tank (secondary).
•
Both the domestic hot water tank and the central heating tank must
be filled before using the tank.
•
If any antifreeze is needed in the primary circuit it must be
compatible with Public hygiene rules and not be toxic. A food-type
Propylene Glycol is recommended. Consult the manufacturer to
ensure that the antifreeze is compatible with the tank's construction
materials.
•
Never use car antifreeze or undiluted antifreeze. This can cause
serious injury, death or damage to the premises.
4. COMMISSIONNING
FILLING THE DOMESTIC HOT WATER TANK (see illustration A)
1. Close the drain cock (5) of the domestic water circuit.
2. Open the stopcock (2) to fill.
3. Bleed the air in the circuit by opening the isolation valve (6) and a nearby
hot water tap (7). Fill the tank until the flow rate stabilises.
4. Turn off the hot water tap.
FILLING THE PRIMARY WATER TANK)
1 Close the drain cock on the tank's primary circuit.
2. Open the isolation valves on the central heating circuit connected to the
boiler.
3. Bleed the air in the circuit by opening the bleed valve located above the
tank.
4. Follow the instructions supplied with the boiler for filling.
5. When the tank is full and the air has been removed, the bleed valve
should be closed.
Ensure that the bleed valve and all fittings are properly sealed.
5. SETTING THE THERMOSTAT
The thermostat on the SMART tank is factory preset to the minimum
recommended by the standards, over a range of settings from 60 to 90 °C.
To increase the temperature: turn the knob clockwise.
To reduce the temperature: turn the knob counter clockwise.
When adjusting the tank's thermostat, make sure that the boiler
temperature is set to a value at last 10 °C higher than tank's thermostat.
There is a risk that bacteria including "Legionella pneumophila" may
develop if a minimum temperature of 60 °C is not maintained both in
storage and in the hot water distribution circuit.
6. EMPTYING
Empty the tank if it is to be switched off for the winter and if there is a risk of
it being exposed to frost.
If the central heating water (primary circuit) is properly protected by
antifreeze, only the domestic hot water circuit should be drained.
Before draining off the domestic hot water, isolate the tank and let the
central heating pressure (primary circuit) down to 1 bar, in order to protect
the tank
against a risk of collapsing.
If the central heating circuit does not contain any antifreeze, both central
heating and hot water circuits should be drained.
