Flow and return connections are 2" BSP.

A 1" BSP tapping is provided in the redundant return flange for
the cold feed or expansion vessel connection.

Safety Valve

A safety valve must be sized and fitted in accordance with BS.
6644 for every type of system.  The valve should be set at 0.7
bar (10 lb/in.

2

) above the operating pressure in the boiler.  The

maximum safety valve setting is 0.7 bar (10 lb/in.

2

) above the

maximum design operating pressure of 4.5 bar (65 lb/in.

).

Cold Feed/Open Vent

The independent cold feed and the open vent must comply
with BS. 6644 and be of the following minimum size.

WATER CONNECTIONS

Control is by a slow opening combination gas control incorporating
a thermocouple flame failure device and mains voltage gas valve.
The control box has a terminal plug connection for mains input.

ELECTRICAL CONTROLS

The basic boiler is supplied with 2 printed circuit boards; designated
board No. 1C and board No. 6A.

Board No. 1C contains an adjustable electronic boiler thermostat
and board No. 6A contains a fixed setting pump overrun timer.  A
preset overheat thermostat is also provided.

OPTION KITS

Controls option

Three L.E.D.s are fitted to the boiler upper front panel fixing
indicating:

z

Boiler on

z

Overheat thermostat operation

z

Pilot failure (Lockout)

The facility for wiring remote indication of the above 3 conditions
is also provided.

An L.C.D. screen gives digital information of water flow and of
water flow  temperature.

Four additional ‘plug-in’ printed circuit boards; ‘No. 2, ‘No. 3', ‘No.
5’, and ‘No. 21’ are contained in this kit for fitting in the upper
control panel.

Pressure gauge kit

In addition to the above control kit, an optional pressure gauge
is also available for the range of boilers.  Details for fitting are
included with the pressure gauge.

Downdraught thermostat kit

This kit is optional when used on a single CX installation, but
mandatory when used on a multiple boiler installation.

DUTY

The range of boilers is suitable for: Combined indirect pumped
domestic hot water 

and

 central heating systems;  Independent

indirect pumped domestic hot water 

or

 central heating systems.

Fully pumped systems may be open vented or sealed.

The range of boilers is NOT suitable for:

1.

Gravity DHW systems.

2.

Gravity heating systems.

3.

Direct domestic hot water supply.

WATER CIRCULATION SYSTEM

Due to the compact nature of the boiler the heat stored within the
castings at the point of shutdown of the burner must be dissipated
into the water circuit in order to avoid the overheat thermostat
tripping. In order to allow pump operation after burner shutdown
the boiler control box incorporates a pump overrun facility which
operates for approximately 6 minutes after burner shutdown and,
in order to make use of this, the pump must be wired to the
appropriate terminal L

2

 (pump) in the boiler control box.

1.

The minimum flow rate as given in Table 4 must be
maintained whenever the boiler is firing and during the pump
overrun period.

2.

During the period of pump overrun there must be an open
circuit of adequate water volume and/or load.  The minimum
size of this circuit is given by the use of Graph 1.

Examples shown on Graph 1

a.

For the 

CX100 and CX 90

 the minimum circuit during pump

overrun could be a load of 6 kW with a volume of 31 litres or
any other combination given by the relevant line.

b.

For the 

CX 80 and CX 70

 the minimum circuit during pump

overrun could be a load of 2 kW with a volume of 45 litres or
any other combination given by the relevant line.

The above circuit capacity during pump overrun may be
