Vitodens 100-W, WB1B Installation & Service
Installation area conditions
g
Ensure ambient temperatures are higher than 32° F
(0° C) and lower than 104° F (40° C).
g
Prevent the air from becoming contaminated by
halogenated hydrocarbons (e.g. as contained in
paint solvents or cleaning fluids) and excessive dust
(e.g. through grinding or polishing work).
Combustion air for the heating process, and ventilation
of the boiler room must be free of corrosive
contaminants. To that end, any boiler must be installed
in an area that has no chemical exposure. The list to
the right indicates the main, currently known sources.
g
Avoid continuously high levels of humidity
(e.g. through frequent drying of laundry).
g
Never close existing ventilation openings.
WARNING
Incorrect ambient conditions can lead to damage to
the heating system and put safe operation at risk.
