The primary circuit, with relevant control and safety devices,
is operated
each time either a central heating or d.h.w.
request is made.
Operation
(see NIKE Mini)
.
The heat contained in the fumes produced by combustion is
absorbed by the copper blades of the water-gas primary ex-
changer (6) which, in turn, transfers it to the water circulating
inside thanks to the boiler circulator (13).
The water is transferred directly into the system or can be devi-
ated to the instant stainless steel plate exchanger (14).
This depends on the position of the motorised 3-way valve
(15) which, when idle allows the water to flow to the d.h.w.
exchanger (14) while if a central heating request is made it
deviates the flow to the system’s delivery (M) and return (R)
pipes.

NIKE Mini Hydraulic circuit.
Primary circuit (Boiler Circuit).
The hot water for central heating and domestic use is produced
by a primary and a secondary
(d.h.w.)
circuits that work as
required.
