IMPORTANT NOTE: The warning notice attached to
the front of the boiler casing must only be
removed by the user.
Please ensure the “Benchmark” logbook is completed and left
with the user.
6.1 All Systems
Commissioning should be carried out by a competent person
in accordance with the current issue of BS6798.
Do not operate the boiler wthout water.
UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES the case must be correctly
fitted and sealed, unless fault finding.
Make sure that the system has been thoroughly flushed out with
cold water without the pump in place.
Refit the pump, fill the system with water, ensuring that all the
air is properly vented from the system and pump.
6.2 Sealed Water Systems Only
Fill until the pressure gauge registers 2.7bar (40lbf/in2). Clear
any air locks and check for water soundness.
Check the operation of the safety valve, by allowing the water
pressure to rise until the valve opens. The valve should open
within +/- 0.3bar (+/- 4.3lbf/in
2 ) of the pre-set pressure. Where
this is not possible conduct a manual check and test.
NOTE: Fit a suitable discharge pipe to the safety valve and
route it to outside the building so that any discharge can be seen
but will not cause injury to persons, damage to property or any
electrical installation.
Release cold water to initial system design pressure.
The set pointer on the pressure gauge should be set to coincide
with the indicating pointer.
6.3 Initial Lighting and Testing

the boiler is cold, the boiler may continue to operate for about
30 seconds before switching off.
Make sure that any remote controls are calling for heat.
Turn the temperature control clockwise to “Max”.
The ignition system will operate to light the boiler. After a pre-
set time if ignition has not taken place the boiler will shutdown.
To re-start the lighting sequence, turn the temperature control
to “0”, then fully clockwise to “Max”.
6 Commissioning
After the burner has lit, the “Burner on” neon on the control panel
