1.2Technical safety equipment

1.2.1 Gas control valve

The water heater has been fitted with a gas control block consisting of a thermo-electrical pilot flame safeguard, pilot flame pressure regulator, burner pressure regulator, a control thermostat (adjustable between 30°C and 71°C) and a safety thermostat (82°C). This gas control block with its simple and secure control respectively switches the gas supply to the main burner on or off.

This gas control block is suitable for gasses from the first, second and third gas family. The maximum inlet pressure is 50 mbar.

1.2.2 Flue down draught safety device

The appliance must be fitted with a flue down draught safety device. The operation of the safeguard is based on the principle of the Thermal Reflux Safeguard (T.R.S.).

The appliance has been fitted with a T.R.S., see Figure 2.

This T.R.S. can be recognized by the brass colored helix coil which is connected to the lower edge of the draught diverter. The helix coil has been connected to the thermostat by means of a capillary tube. The wiring that is connected to the thermostat must be connected to the thermocouple.

It is the aim of the T.R.S. to prevent flue gasses from the water heater entering the room where the water heater has been placed, instead of passing through the flue to outside atmosphere. The thermo-couple circuit is interrupted and the gas supply is disconnected as soon as the T.R.S. is activated by heating of the sensor by the hot gasses.

After the cause of the reentry of flue gasses has been traced the device can be put back into operation again. In case of T.R.S. the RESET button has to be pressed first.

If this failure occurs frequently, this indicates that the flue suffers from down draught conditions. We advice that necessary remedial actions be carried out by a competent person.

Important

The T.R.S. should never be put out of operation. Reentry of flue gasses to the building could be harmful and cause poisoning or death.
