Installation Manual - Unical Lattner Condensing Hot Water Boilers

Instructions for the installer3.10 - SUPPLEMENTAL SAFETY, PROTECTIVE AND CONTROL DEVICES PRESCRIBED BYTHE GOVERNMENT DECREE 01-12-1975 AND RELATIVE APPLICABLE TECHNICALSPECIFICATIONS (CONTAINED IN THE “RACCOLTA R EDITION 1982”)CERTIFICATION OF THE SUPPLEMENTAL SAFETY DEVICES:Several notified bodies prescribe supplemental safetydevices.For the safety valves and on-off gas valves it is necessary toobtain the ISPESL (Institution for preventive measures andsafety at work) calibration certificate which confirms that theyare free from lead or bossing.The expansion vessels with a capacity superior to 24 litresmust have be supplied with an approval booklet released byISPESL and a manufacturers conformity declaration.All the accessories must have an ISPESL approval certificate.SAFETY DEVICES1. On-off gas valve: a device which has the function of cuttingoff the gas supply when the water temperature reaches themax. predetermined value. The sensible element has to beinstalled as nearest as possible to the generator (flow pipe)at a distance which has to be < 500 mm and must not be ableto be cut-off.4. Safety pressure switch: it has the function of shuttingdown the generator if it reaches the maximum workingpressure. It must be able to be reset manually.CONTROL DEVICES5. Pressure indicator with shock absorber tube andpressure gauge holder valve: it indicates the effectivepressure existing in the generator. It must be graduated in“bar” and must have the maximum operating pressure inscale and be equipped with a 3-way valve with the connectionfor the manometer.6. Thermometer: it indicates the effective water temperaturecontained in the generator. It must be graduated in degreesCelsius with a temperature scale not exceeding 120°C.7. Inspection pocket: approved for inserting the controlthermometer8. Calibrated expansion vessel: it permits the absorptionof the increase in volume of the system’s water following anincrease in temperature; the boiling point (ISPESL) must notbe superior to the pressure relief valve’s calibrated pressure.2. Pressure relief valve: it has the function of dischargingin the atmosphere the fluid contained in the generator whenthis has, for whatever motive, reached the maximum workingpressure.PROTECTIVE DEVICES3. Overheat thermostat: it has the function of shutting downthe generator if the safety thermostat fitted in the boilermalfunctions. It must be calibrated to a value of < 100°C,which MUST not be changed.19
