1. GENERAL
The boilers of the Buccaneer GT and Falcon GTE Combination Boiler
are automatic independent hot-water boilers designed for connecting
to a flue which require a separate fuel oil or gas burner.
Models available:
•
Heating and domestic hot water:
- Buccaneer GT Combination Boiler - boiler with an MLS
150 litre domestic hot water tank and a standard control
panel which is fitted with an MB1 domestic hot water
priority and regulation unit.
- Falcon GTE Combination Boiler - boiler with an MLS 150
or 250 litre domestic hot water tank and a standard control
panel which is fitted with an MBI domestic hot water priority
and regulation unit.
•
An option of a Correx electric anode (AM7) may be fitted to
any tank replacing the standard magnesium anode for long
life.
Important Recommendations
• The boiler/tank assembly must be installed in premises free
from frost. Placing the tank as closely as possible to the
water supply will minimise energy losses in the pipework
which should be lagged in all cases.
• It is advisable to place the boiler/tank assembly on a plinth
so that the area can be easily cleaned.
Description
The tanks in high-grade steel are lined on the inside with a vitrified
enamel at 850ºC to food standard quality, which protects the tank
from corrosion.
The tank is also protected from corrosion by a magnesium anode
which must be checked every two years and replaced if
necessary (refer to the "Maintenance" chapter on page 21). The
heat exchanger fitted in the tank is constructed of smooth tubing.
Those surfaces coming into contact with domestic hot water are
enamelled.
MLS tanks are heavily insulated in CFC-free polyurethane foam,
thus reducing heat losses to a minimum.
The outer casing is in painted sheet metal.
The tank has a thermometer.
WARNINGS
- Installation, commissioning and maintenance
must be carried out by a qualified technician,
in accordance with installation practices and
the instructions in this document.
- Regular maintenance of the equipment is
necessary to ensure safe and reliable
performance.
- For the guarantee to remain valid, no
modifications must be made to the domestic
hot water tank.
- Central heating water and domestic hot water
must never come into contact. In particular,
the exchanger must not circulate domestic hot
water.
WARNING
The boiler shall be assembled and installed by a qualified professional only.
Strict compliance with these assembly, installation and maintenance instructions is a precondition for the correct
operation of the boiler
