Requirements Possible consequences of failing to
follow instructions
Substrate Level
Adequate load bearing capacity
Faults due to air pockets
Ventilation (open ue) Ventilation requirements specied in

Operating the appliance with a leaking
ue gas system presents a risk of
poisoning or asphyxiation due to the
escape of ue gases
Frost protection Adequate ambient temperature System damage due to frost
Vapours and dust No aggressive steam
No signicant dust levels
Appliance must not be installed in
areas like workshops, washrooms,
hobby rooms, etc.
Component damage and/or signicant
soiling of hot water heat exchanger
Combustion air Free from halogenated hydrocarbons Premature ageing of heat exchanger due
to corrosion.
For installation in oil
storage rooms
Comply with relevant national re
safety regulations.
Risk of explosion/re

4.3 Heating system
4.3.1 Safety equipment
– Provide a drain & ll valve at the lowest point in the system.
– The heat exchanger has not been tted with an expansion vessel at the factory.
► The expansion vessel must be sized sufciently, in accordance with DIN 4807.
► Fit the expansion vessel onsite (WOLF accessories range).
WARNING
Risk of explosion due to pressure buildup!
Scalding and physical injury.
► Do not install a shut-off valve between the expansion vessel and the heat generator.
This does not include buttery valves upstream of the expansion vessel.
► Route the discharge pipe of the buttery valve into a drain outlet.
– Make sure that a drain outlet and safety assembly is provided.
The safety assembly from the WOLF accessories range includes an integral 3 bar safety valve.
– A minimum ow rate prevents damage to the hot water heat exchanger as a result of overheating or
steam hammers. This is not required for ow temperatures < 80 °C.
– WOLF recommends using a sludge separator with a magnetite separator.
Deposits in the heating water heat exchanger may lead to boiling noises, a drop in performance or
faults. Using a sludge separator with a magnetite separator protects the heat generator and the high-
efciency pump against magnetic and non-magnetic contamination.
► Install a sludge separator with magnetite separator in the heating return to the heat generator.
– WOLF recommends using an air and microbubble separator.
Microbubbles can cause faults in the heating circuit. An air and microbubble separator is most effective
at the hottest point of the heating circuit.
► Install the air and microbubble separator in the heating ow of the heat generator.
