ECONCEPT TECH 25 C - 35 C
Sliding Temperature
When the optional external probe is installed, the boiler adjustment system works with
"Sliding Temperature". In this mode, the temperature of the heating system is controlled
according to the outside weather conditions, to ensure high comfort and energy saving
throughout the year. In particular, the system delivery temperature is decreased as the
outside temperature increases, according to a specific "compensation curve".
With Sliding Temperature adjustment, the temperature set with the heating buttons (de-
tail 3 - fig. 1) becomes the maximum system delivery temperature. It is advisable to set
a maximum value to allow system adjustment throughout its useful operating range.
The boiler must be adjusted at the time of installation by qualified personnel. Possible
adjustments can in any case be made by the user to improve comfort.
Compensation curve and curve offset
Press the reset button (detail 6 - fig. 1) for 5 seconds to access the "Sliding temperature"
menu; the display shows "CU" flashing.
Use the DHW buttons (detail 1 - fig. 1) to adjust the curve from 1 to 10 according to the
characteristic. By setting the curve to 0, sliding temperature adjustment is disabled.
Press the heating buttons (detail 3 - fig. 1) to access parallel curve offset; the display
shows "OF" flashing. Use the DHW buttons (detail 1 - fig. 1) to adjust the parallel curve
offset according to the characteristic (fig. 6).
Press the reset button (detail 6 - fig. 1) again for 5 seconds to exit the "Sliding Temper-
ature" menu.
If the room temperature is lower than the required value, it is advisable to set a higher
order curve and vice versa. Proceed by increasing or decreasing in steps of one and
check the result in the room.

If the Remote Timer Control (optional) is connected to the boiler, the above ad-
justments are managed according to that given in table 1.

Water system pressure adjustment
The filling pressure read on the boiler water gauge with the system cold must be approx
1.0 bar. If the system pressure falls to values below minimum, the boiler stops and fault
F37 is displayed. Bring it to the initial value by means of the filling cock detail 1 fig. 7. At
the end of the operation always close the filling cock.
Once the system pressure is restored, the boiler will activate the 120-second air venting
cycle indicated on the display by FH.

Adjustment can be made from the Remote Timer Control menu
and the boiler control panel.
Summer mode has priority over a possible Remote Timer Control
heating demand.
On disabling DHW from the Remote Timer Control menu, the
boiler selects the Economy mode. In this condition, the eco/com-
fort button (detail 7 - fig. 1) on the boiler panel is disabled.
On enabling DHW from the Remote Timer Control menu, the
boiler selects the Comfort mode. In this condition it is possible
select one of the two modes with the eco/comfort button (detail 7
- fig. 1) on the boiler panel.
Both the Remote Timer Control and the boiler card manage Slid-
ing Temperature adjustment: the boiler card Sliding Temperature
has priority.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 General Instructions
BOILER INSTALLATION MUST ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSON-
NEL, IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN IN THIS TECHNICAL
MANUAL, THE PROVISIONS OF CURRENT LAW, THE PRESCRIPTIONS OF NA-
TIONAL AND LOCAL STANDARDS AND THE RULES OF PROPER WORKMANSHIP.

3.2 Place of installation

The combustion circuit is sealed with respect to the place of installation room, therefore
the unit can be installed in any room. However, the place of installation must be ade-
quately ventilated to prevent the creation of dangerous conditions in case of even small
gas leaks. This safety regulation is laid down by EEC Directive no. 90/396 for all gas
units, including those with sealed chamber.
The unit is suitable for operation in a partially protected place in conformity with EN 297/
A6, with minimum temperature -5°C. If equipped with the special antifreeze kit, it can be
used with minimum temperatures to -15°C. The boiler must be installed is a protected
place, e.g. under the slope of a roof, inside a balcony or in a sheltered recess.
The place of installation must in any case be free of dust, flammable materials or objects
or corrosive gases.
The boiler is arranged for wall mounting and comes standard with a hooking bracket. The
wall fixing must ensure a stable and effective support for the generator.
A
If the unit is enclosed in a cabinet or mounted alongside, a space must be pro-
vided for removing the casing and for normal maintenance operations

3.3 Plumbing connections

B
The safety valve outlet must be connected to a funnel or collection pipe to pre-
vent water spurting onto the floor in case of overpressure in the heating circuit.

facturer cannot be held liable.

Water system characteristics
In the presence of water harder than 25° Fr (1°F = 10ppm CaCO
water in order to avoid possible scaling in the boiler.
Antifreeze system, antifreeze fluids, additives and inhibitors
When necessary, antifreeze fluids, additives and inhibitors can be used only if the man-
ufacturer of such fluids or additives guarantees that they are suitable and do not cause
damage to the exchanger or other components and/or materials of the boiler and system.
Do not use generic antifreeze fluids, additives or inhibitors that are not specific for use in
heating systems and compatible with the materials of the boiler and system.
Antifreeze kit for outdoor installation (optional)
In case of installation outdoors in a partially protected place for temperatures lower than
-5°C and down to -15°C, the boiler must be equipped with the antifreeze kit to protect the
tap water circuit and air trap. The kit comprises a thermostat, electric heaters and a heat-
er for the air trap. Connect the kit to the electronic card and install the thermostat and
heaters on the tap water pipes as directed in the instructions attached to the kit.
