Operating Instructions TURBOMAT TM 150 / 220 - Econergy Ltd

Maintenance and cleaning:
- Remove the separating plates (Pos5) and remove the accumulated soot deposits with the ash
scraper.
Also clean the boiler's inner walls.
- Check the firebrick for damage (Pos6)
Open the combustion chamber door and perform a simple visual check of the combustion
chamber (small fissures or a rough surface are normal)
- Check the grate; to see whether the grate elements have shifted (Pos7)
Open the combustion chamber door and perform a simple visual check
- Blow out any obstructions in the over-pressure monitor (Pos11)
On the TM 150, also blow out the under-pressure measuring port with air (Pos12)
(CAUTION: Do not blow air into the differential pressure measuring transducer)
- Check the gearbox for a good seal (Pos10)
Important: As the system operator, you are legally obligated to have the thermal discharge safety
device operationally checked annually by a specialist.
- Thermal discharge safety device
Press the test button - water must flow into the discharge funnel. After releasing the button,
the funnel must seal again. If the amount of discharged water was very low, the thermal
discharge safety device or the safety battery is calcified and must be flushed out with a deliming
agent (thinned formic acid, for example). If the amount continues to decrease, the
seals and the valve set must be cleaned.
- Safety valve
The safety valves have a test button. Press the test button. If the valve is operating correctly,
water comes out. After the test button is released, the valve must re-seal!
- Expansion Tank
There is a test valve on each expansion tank (similar to the valve on a vehicle tire), which
can be briefly actuated (pressed in). If water comes out, the expansion tank is defective. If
nitrogen (anti-corrosion protection) comes out, everything is okay. However, to see clear
evidence of the system's operability, the water pressure in the heating system must first be
lowered to 0 bar.
Have it checked by a specialist if necessary
- Soundness of door seals
By actuating the door, you can check to see whether it still closes tightly (by drawing shut).
Next, check the ceramic fibre seal, to see whether it is still properly aligned on the door
frame (by the imprint in the ceramic fibre cord). If not properly aligned, this will be evidenced
by a black discoloration or a break in the imprint. If the soundness of the seal is no longer
assured, the door latches must be re-tightened or the seal must be replaced.
- Check the chimney and the connection line to the chimney
The chimney should be regularly serviced (by a chimney sweep). After the chimney is
cleaned, it is imperative to also have the connection line from the boiler to the chimney
checked for sediments (for example due to chimney cleaning)
- Check explosion flap and/or draught controller flap
Check the explosion flap (and the draught controller too, if there is one) for ease of
operation.
