GENERAL DETAILS

These condensing heating boilers allow full exploitation of heat resulted from combustion, subjecting the
fumes to a considerable temperature reduction or dehumidifying boost.
The heat generator does not impose return temperature limits.
The performance will increase reducing the return temperature, therefore, the floor standing heat exchange
surface systems with low return temperatures will have an improved efficiency;
The efficiency will remain high even with traditional heating systems operating at high temperatures (e.g. t
80/60 C).
The boiler bodies whose axes are inclined in relation to the vertical axis, consist of:
- Entirely submerged passing flame combustion chamber;
- Corrugated smoke ducts whose particular shape increases the heat exchange surface, develops smoke
turbulence and allows condensate formation and drainage through the rear collection chamber;
- Water containment casing connected to the low and medium temperature return, delivery and the control
and safety accessory connections;
- The smoke chamber able to collect condensate through the combustion chamber nozzle from the
chimney and condensate drainage tube.
All surfaces that come into contact with the combustion products are made from STAINLESS steel and,
therefore, are also resistant to acid condensate attacks.
High efficiency due to complete exploitation of the fuel's thermal energy and to considerable
insulation consisting ofself extinguishing, fire resistant reticulated polyethylene foam, label these
boilers as "4 star high-efficiency" according to Efficiency Directive 92/42/EEC.
Every boiler body is equipped with an air/gas pre-mix burner.
Permanent lowering of combustion products in the full combustion chamber limit nitrogen oxide (NOx)
formation.

In order to optimize the operation of the modular heat generator (two or three thermal units connected in
cascade) all the burners must have the fan speed adjustment potentiometers set at the same values (see

the POWER ADJUSTMENT chapter).

The overall power of the boiler is given by the sum of individual heating units, so in order to reach
intermediate values set the trimmers properly.

INSTALLATION WARNINGS

Before connecting the boiler, the following operations must be completed:

- Thoroughly clean all the system pipes in order to remove any foreign matter that could affect correct
operation of the boiler;
- Check that the flue has an adequate draught, that there is no narrowing of passages and that it is free from
debris; also check that other appliances do not release into the flue (unless designed to serve several utilities).
See the regulations in force.

THERMAL PLANT
BOILER ROOM
As a rule, regulations in force should be always observed. Premises in which boilers will be installed should be
sufficiently ventilated and guarantee access for ordinary and extraordinary maintenance operations.

EXTERNAL INSTALLATION
It is possible to utilise a special base (optional) for external installation to further weatherproof the thermal plant.

CHIMNEY
The pressurised boiler, is so-called, because it uses a burner provided with fan. The fan introduces into the
combustion chamber, the exact amount of air necessary in relation to the fuel and maintains an pressurisation in
the furnace equivalent to all the internal resistances of the flue gas path as far as the boiler exhaust. At this point
the fan pressure should have dropped to zero to prevent the flue connection pipe and the lower area of the flue
itself from being under pressure and combustion gas leaks occurring in the boiler room.
The connection pipe from the boiler to the flue must slope incline in the direction of the flue gas flow with
recommended gradient of no less than 10%. Its path must be as short and straight as possible with the bends and
fittings rationally designed in accordance with air duct criteria.
WARNING
The flue gas temperature of this boiler (between 35 and 120C) is very low compare to the traditional noncondensing boilers, therefore, there is a very high humidity density. For this reason the boiler chimney
must be water resistant, acid condense resistant and insulated to warrant sufficient draught.

HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
Ensure that the hydraulic pressure measured after the reduction valve on the supply pipe does not exceed the
operating pressure specified on the rating plate of the component (boiler, heater etc.).
As the water contained in the heating system increases in pressure during operation, ensure that its maximum
value does not exceed the maximum hydraulic pressure specified on the component rating plate (5 bar).
Ensure that the safety valve outlets of the boiler and hot water tank, if any, have been connected to drain in
order to prevent the valves from flooding the room if they open.
Ensure that the pipes of the water and heating system are not used as an earth connection for the electrical
system as this can seriously and very rapidly damage the pipes, boiler, heater and radiators.
Once the heating system has been filled, you are advised to close the supply cock and keep it closed so that any
leaks from the system will be identified by a drop in hydraulic pressure indicated on the system pressure gauge.
In case the single unit boiler's condensate neutralisation (optional) is not being
used, check if a siphon is connected to the condensate drainage tube, inside the
boiler, in order to facilitate fume output.
NOTE: IF ONLY ONE RETURN IS REQUIRED, ALWAYS USE THE LOW TEMPERATURE ONE

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical systems of thermal plants designed only for heating purposes must comply with numerous legal
regulations which apply to in general as well as specifically to each application or fuel type.
Please refer to this manual's wiring diagram when connecting the control panel.
PRE-MIX BURNER
The boiler is supplied with a pre-mix burner already mounted on the boiler, suitably calibrated for a 20mbar
gas pressure.
Check combustion parameters before assembly (CO e CO 2).
Please refer to the BURNER chapter for burner information.
BOILER BODY INSULATION
The boiler's body and upper door side's insulation consists of a layer of insulating, reticulated, fire resistant, self
extinguishing, polyethylene foam.

ELECTRONIC BOARD CONFIGURATION

The meaning of the keys is variable. Please refer to the corresponding icon displayed on the screen.
Standard parameters are loaded in the electronic board's firmware and can be used as a starting point for the
configuration of your system. The TBX's following preloaded configurations may be used:
- TBX:
automatically sets the appropriate parameters of a single unit TBX boiler
- TBX Master:
automatically sets the appropriate parameters of a cascade master TBX unit
- TBX Slave 1 or 2: automatically sets the appropriate parameters of a slave TBX boiler
Always conduct a quick setup before starting a configuration (even from PC).
This operation allows the cancellation of previous configurations conducted by mistake or by third parties.
After a quick setup all parameters are still editable.

key until the electronic board will reset.

MAINE PARAMETERS THAT MUST BE CHECKED

Some parameters can be locked to prevent configuration tampering.
For this purpose, there are two levels (user and technical). The controller's default setting is
"technical" and thus allows a complete freedom of configuration.
Please refer to the manual of eterm boiler's electronic board (Code 93120301).
"General configuration" menu
Contains parameters related to:
- Language

FUEL SUPPLY
The burners are matched with pneumatic proportional monolithic gas valves, that allow delivered gas amount
modulation, thus modulating developed power.
A pressure signal detected in the air circuit is led to the pneumatic gas valve, which delivers a quantity of gas
proportional to the flow of air processed by the fan.
In order to optimize the dimensions, the gas ramp is assembled directly on the body of the burner.
GAS RAMP GROUP
The valve-manifold connection allows the compensation of suction accidental blocking by reducing the amount of
delivered gas.

AIR/GAS MIXER
The mixing of gas and combustion air is performed inside the ventilation circuit (mixer), starting with the suction
inlet entrance.
The fuel is inserted through the gas ramp into the air intake and with the help of a mixer starts an optimum mixing.
GAS VALVE

37

IONISATION CURRENT
The minimum equipment operating current is 5A.
The burner produces a significantly higher current, so that normally it does not require any control.
If, however, we want to measure the ionization current, the connector (CN1) inserted into the red wire must be
opened and then a microammeter must be inserted.

Optimal calibration values

Safety Notes for the first commissioning

The first commissioning of the burner should be carried out by authorised personnel and
authorized by ICI CALDAIE SpA, as shown in this manual and in accordance with in force rules
and regulations.
Verify regulating, control and safety device correct operation .
ADJUSTMENTS PRIOR TO IGNITION
The adjustments that need to be executed are:
- Open the manual valves located upstream of the gas ramp.
- Vent the air from the gas pipe by suing the P1 plug screw.
- Check the equipment's potentiometer settings.
BURNER START
Close the thermostat and electrically power the burner.
The burner starts in pre-ventilation mode at maximum value. After 30 seconds, it reaches START speed and the
ignition occurs.
If, on the other hand, the fan starts but at the end of the safety time the flame does not appear, the equipment
allows the repetition of the start-up program for maximum 2 attempts.
At the third attempt, if not the lighting does not occur, the burner will be blocked.
Unlock and wait for a new start attempt.
If the lighting still does not occur, it may be possible that the gas does not arrive at the combustion head within a
safety time of 5s.
Slightly rotate clockwise (no more than 360 ) the V1 screw placed on the gas valve mixer.
Once lighting has occurred, move on to the full adjustment of the burner.

38

POWER ADJUSTMENT
The modulation is based on variable speed technology.
The combustion air flow is adjusted through the variation in the number of engine revolutions,
The proportional gas ramp delivers the correct amount of fuel depending on the pressure sensed in the ventilation
circuit,
So, the engine speed rotation variation adjusts the delivered power.
The engine speed can be adjusted by acting on the burner's three potentiometers
Adjustments may be necessary based on the installation.
The thermal capacity of the burner should not exceed the capacity of the boiler.
MIN Determines the speed of the fan when the modulation is minimal
MAX Determines the speed of the fan when the modulation is at its peak
START Determines the speed of the fan during the starting phase
"MIN" adjustment is replaced instantly at the end of the pre-ventilation outlined by the opening of the valve and
the presence of the vent.
Maximum modulation enabling with "MAX" occurs approximately 10 sec from the valve opening.

In order to optimize the operation of the modular heat generator (two or three thermal units connected in cascade)
all the burners must have the fan speed adjustment potentiometers set at the same values.
The overall power of the boiler is given by the sum of individual heating units, so in order to reach intermediate
values set the trimmers properly.
GAS VALVE ADJUSTMENT
The adjustment of the gas flow rate is obtained by using the two screws V1 and V2.
In order to vary the maximum flow rate of gas operate screw V1.
- In order to increase the flow rate: turn the screw counter-clockwise (not more than 360 with respect to the
default calibration).
- In order to decrease the flow rate: turn the screw clockwise (not more than 360 with respect to the default
calibration).
In order to vary the minimum gas flow rate operate the gas valve's V2 screw.
Remove protection screw and operate the inner screw using Torx key.
- In order to increase the flow rate: turn the screw clockwise (not more than 360 with respect to the default
calibration).
- In order to decrease the flow rate: turn the screw counter-clockwise (not more than 360 with respect to the
default calibration).

39

40

BURNER ADJUSTMENT
In order to obtain an optimum burner adjustment, the analysis of gas exhausted from the boiler's combustion must
be conducted. When installing the burner onto the boiler, adjustments and tests must be carried out in compliance
with the boiler instruction manual, including the control of CO and CO2 concentration in flue gases and their
temperature.
Sequentially check:
- Maximum power
- Minimum power
- Ignition power
Themaximum power should match the one required by the used boiler. In order to increase or decrease its value
operate the equipment's MAX potentiometer.
Measure the meter's gas flow to find exactly the amount of power burned.
Using an fume analyser, measure the value of CO2 or O2 in order to optimize the calibration of the burner.
The correct values are: CO2 8.5 9% or O2 55.5%.
To correct these values operate the gas valve (no more than 360 from default calibration) as follows:
- To increase the gas flow rate and CO2: rotate screw V1 counter-clockwise.
- To decrease the gas flow rate and CO2: rotate screw V1 clockwise.
Theminimum power should match the one required by the used boiler. In order to increase or decrease its value
operate the equipment's MIN potentiometer.
Measure the meter's gas flow to find exactly the amount of power burned.
Using an fume analyser, measure the value of CO2 or O2 in order to optimize the calibration of the burner.
The correct values are: CO2 8 8.2% or O2 5.5 6%.
To correct these values operate the gas valve (no more than 360 from default calibration) as follows:
To increase the gas flow rate and CO2: rotate screw V2 clockwise.
To decrease the gas flow rate and CO2: rotate screw V2 counter-clockwise.
The ignition power can be varied by operating the equipment's START trimmer.
Combustion head
The combustion head consists of a high thermal resistant cylinder. Its surface is interspersed with several holes
and shrouded with a metallic mesh.
The air-gas mixture is pushed inside the cylinder and escapes through the outer holes toward the exterior of the
head.
The combustion starts when the air-gas mixture is ignited by the electrode's spark.
The metallic mesh is the fundamental element of the combustion head as it greatly improves the performance of
the burner.
The flame developed on the head's surface is perfectly attached and adheres to the mesh during maximum
operation.
This allows high modulation ratios up to 6:1, thus avoiding the danger of backfiring to minimum modulation.
The flame is characterized by an extremely compact shape that avoids any risk of contact between the flame and
boiler components and consequently the risk of poor combustion phenomenon.
The structure of the flame allows the development of compact combustion chambers, designed to take advantage
of this feature.
Emissions
The burners' emission values are much lower than the limits imposed by the most stringent regulations. Flame
distribution and its expansion on a large surface, allows thermal NOx containment, mainly responsible for
emissions.

If the flame is not present after the safety time of the last restart has passed, the burner will block.
RE-IGNITION FUNCTION DUE TO MISFIRE
The equipment allows start-up repeat for maximum 3 attempts, if at the end of the safety time there is no flame.
A further lack of flame after the fourth ignition attempt determines the block of the burner at the end of the safety
time.

CHECK OF THE NUMBER OF ENGINE REVOLUTIONS

Verification of engine operation if it exceeds the minimum number of rotations per minute (900 rpm).
If the engine does not exceed the minimum number of revolutions, check the block after 20 seconds.
EQUIPMENT UNLOCKING (INTEGRATED PUSH-BUTTON)
To unlock of equipment proceed as following:
Press the release button for 1 or 2 seconds.
EQUIPMENT UNLOCKING (FROM REMOTE CONNECTION)
Use input RS from the X1 terminal strip to remotely unlock the equipment.
MAINTENANCE SAFETY NOTES
Periodic maintenance is essential for the proper operation, safety, efficiency and the lifespan of the burner.
This allows a power consumption and pollutant emissions decrease and also allows to maintain a reliable product
over time.
Before performing any maintenance, cleaning, or control operation:
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
DANGER
Maintenance and burner calibration interventions should be carried out by trained and authorized personnel by ICI
CALDAIE SpA, as shown in this manual and in accordance with in force rules and regulations.
DANGER
remove the burner's power supply using the system's main switch;
DANGER
close the fuel interruption valve
Maintenance frequency
The combustion system should be checked at least once a year by an ICI BOILERS SpA representative or other
specialist.
Flexible tubes
Make sure that the fuel lines, air intake and combustion products evacuation do not have blockages or bottlenecks.
Electrical wiring
Check the correct execution of burner and gas ramp electrical connections.
Gas leaks
Check that there are no gas leaks in the following areas:
- the meter-burner pipe
- the valve-mixer coupling
- the burner sealing flange.
Combustion head
View the combustion head and check that the fabric is intact, free of holes or wide and deep corrosion.
Also check that there are no deformations due to high temperature.
Gas ramp
Check the valve calibration and operation proportionality using exhaust gas analysis.
Check the valve/manifold compensation tube.

44

Electrode group
In case of electrode verification and/or replacement, check that the electrodes and the probe do not show
pronounced deformations and surface oxidation. Check that the distances indicated in the figure are still met,
possibly reset them.

If necessary, eliminate the oxide from the probe's surface using an abrasive paper.
Do not rotate the electrode. Place it as shown in the figure; if the electrode is placed near the
ionization probe, the equipment's amplifier could be damaged.
Combustion
Leave the burner running at full speed for about ten minutes, correctly calibrating all the elements listed in this
manual.
Then perform a combustion analysis and check:
CO2 percentage (%);
CO content (ppm);
NOx content (ppm);
Ionisation current (A);
Chimney fume temperature.
Adjust the burner if the combustion values recorded at the beginning of the operation do not meet in force
regulations or, in any case, do not correspond to a good combustion.
Write the new combustion values in a suitable form, they will be useful for the subsequent checks.
FAULTS / REMEDIES
This is a listing of some causes and possible remedies to a series of faults that may occur and lead to burner
failure or non-regular operation. A fault, in most cases, leads to lighting of the equipment's command and control
release button.
After this signal is enabled, the burner will work again only after the release push-button is pressed; after this has
been done, if there is a regular ignition, you can allocate the arrest to a transient and non dangerous anomaly. If
the block persists, you will have to search for the cause of fault and implement the remedies shown in the
following tables.
Operation faults

14 START UP WARNINGS
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before starting the boiler, check that:
- The rating plate specifications and power supply network (electricity, water, gas) specifications correspond;
- The burner power range is compatible with the power of the boiler;
- The boiler room also contains the instructions for the burner;
- The flue gas exhaust pipe is operating correctly;
- The air inlet supply is well dimensioned and free from any obstacle;
- The boiler door, the smoke box and the burner plate are closed in order to provide a complete flue gas seal;
- The system is full of water and that any air pockets have therefore been eliminated;
- The anti-freeze protections are operative;
- The water circulation pumps are operating correctly.
- The expansion vessel and the safety valve(s) have been connected correctly (with no interception) and are
properly operating.
- Check the electrical parts and thermostat operation.

WATER TREATMENT
If the boiler is to be installed in an existing system where there could be frequent losses from the system
or if the hardness of the water is greater than 10 F, it will be necessary to use a filter and a softener for
system water and control the pH above 8-9.
The most common phenomena that occur in heating systems are:
Scaling
Scale obstructs heat transfer between the combustion gases and the water, causing an abnormal increase in
the temperature of the metal and therefore reducing the life of the boiler.
Scale is found mostly at the points where the wall temperature is highest and the best remedy, at construction
level, is to eliminate areas that overheat.
Scale creates an insulating layer, which reduces the thermal transfer of the boiler, affecting system efficiency.
This means that the heat produced by burning the fuel is not fully transferred and is lost to the flue.
Scale diagram
Key
%
% fuel not used

Corrosion on the water side

Corrosion of the metal surfaces of the
boiler on the water-side is due to the
passage of dissolved iron through its
ions (Fe+). In this process the presence
of
dissolved gases and in particular of
oxygen and carbon dioxide is very
important. Corrosion often occurs with
softened or de-mineralised water, which has a more aggressive effect on iron (acid water with Ph <7): in these
cases, although the system is protected from scaling, it is not protected against corrosion and the water must
be treated with corrosion inhibitors.

FILLING THE SYSTEM

The water must enter the system as slowly as possible and in a quantity proportional to the air bleeding capacity of
the components involved. In the case of a system with closed expansion vessel, water must be let in until the
pressure gauge indicator reaches the static pressure value, pre-set by the vessel. Heat the water to maximum
temperature. During this operation, the air contained in the water is released through the automatic air separators
or through manual bleed valves. The water released from the system with elimination of the air is made up by the
automatic or manual-filling valve.

50

15 OPERATION
This operation and all regulation, verification, periodic checks and maintenance op-erations
must be performed by professionally-qualified personnel.

OPERATION CHECKS
The heating system must be used suitably, ensuring on the one hand, optimum combustion with reduced emission
to the atmosphere of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and soot, and on the other avoiding all damage to persons
and property.
The pressurisation must remain within the limit values shown in the technical data table.
In the event of poor smoke sealing in the upper part of the boiler (upper door), check the closing tie-rods.
Do not open the door while the burner is in operation. In all cases wait a few minutes after
stopping the burner for the insulation to cool.

TEMPORARY BOILER STOP

To stop the boiler temporarily, set the main switch on the control panel to OFF. The electrical parts will now be
free of power.

PROLONGED BOILER STOP

Close the gas valve that is fitted upstream of the boiler
During long stoppages in winter, and in order to avoid frost damage, freeing the heating system
is recommended. The adding of antifreeze liquids in proportion to the installation site is
recommended regardless.

PERIODICAL CHECKS
-

Check periodically that there is no air in the heating system

Periodically check the boiler pressure.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

All maintenance and cleaning can only be carried out only after closing the fuel supply and switching off the
electrical supply.
As economic operation depends on the cleanliness of the heat exchanger surfaces and on burner adjustment, it is
recommended to:
- Have the burner settings checked by professionally qualified personnel;
- Analyse the system water and allow for adequate water treatment to avoid the formation of calcareous
incrustations that initially reduce boiler efficiency, and then lead to damage;
- Check that the cladding and the flue gas sealing gaskets are in good order and if not, replace;
- Periodically check the efficiency of the regulation and safety instruments on the system.
