1.6 Gas connection.
Our boilers are designed to operate with methane gas (G20) or
LPG. Supply pipes must be the same as or larger than the 3/4”G
boiler tting.
ATTENTION:
Before connecting the gas line, carefully
clean inside all the fuel feed system pipes
to remove any residue that could impair boiler
eciency. Also make sure the gas corresponds
to that for which the boiler is prepared (see
boiler data nameplate). If dierent, the boiler
must be converted for operation with the other
type of gas (see converting appliance for other
gas types). e dynamic gas supply (methane
or LPG) pressure must also be checked accord-
ing to the type used in the boiler, which must
be in compliance, as insucient levels can re-
duce generator output and cause malfunctions.
Ensure correct gas cock connection.
According to local regulations in force,
make sure that a gas cock is installed
upstream of each connection between
the appliance and the gas system. is cock,
if supplied by the appliance’s manufacturer,
can be directly connected to the appliance
(i.e. downstream from the pipes connecting
the system to the appliance), according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
e Immergas connection unit, supplied as
an optional kit, also includes the gas cock,
whose installation instructions are provided
in the kit.
In any case, make sure the gas cock is connect-
ed properly.
e gas supply pipe must be suitably dimensioned according to
current regulations in order to guarantee correct gas ow rate to
the burner even in conditions of maximum generator output and
to guarantee appliance eciency (technical specications). e
coupling system must conform to standards in force (EN 1775).
ATTENTION:
the appliance was designed to operate
with combustible gas free of impurities;
otherwise it is advisable to t special lters
upstream of the appliance to restore the purity
of the fuel.
Storage tanks (in case of supply from LPG depot).
- New LPG storage tanks may contain residual inert gases (nitro-
gen) that degrade the mixture delivered to the appliance casing
functioning anomalies.
- Due to the composition of the LPG mixture, layering of the
mixture components may occur during the period of storage in
the tanks. is can cause a variation in the caloric value of the
mixture delivered to the appliance, with subsequent change in
its performance.
