• Gauge to display temperature, burner operation and

malfunctions

• Temperature sensor to monitor the water temperature at

the heater output

• Great savings in comparison with conventional heaters,

due to the possibility of power adjustment and no

permanent pilot flame

• Natural gas/LPG burner

• Semi-permanent pilot burner which only functions during

the period between the opening of the water valve and the

ignition of the main burner

• Heat exchanger without tin/lead covering

• Water valve in fibreglass-reinforced polyamide, 100%

recyclable

• Automatic adjustment of the water flow by means of a

device which permits a constant flow to be maintained in

spite of variable pressure supplies

• Gas flow adjustment proportional to the water flow to

maintain a constant high temperature.

2.8 Function

This gas heater is equipped with automatic electronic ignition

which simplifies its operation.

▶ To do so, just turn on the switch (Fig. 6).

Afterthis procedure,automatic ignition occurswhenever a hot

water tap is opened. First, the pilot burner is lit and

approximately four seconds afterwards the main burner. The

pilot burner flame is then extinguished after a short period of

time.

This is a way of saving a great amount of energy as the pilot

burner only operates for the minimum necessary time to ignite

the main burner, in contrast to conventional systems which

operate permanently.

Air in the gas supply pipe when the heater is

started up may cause ignition to fail.

If this happens:

▶ Close and open the hot water tap to repeat the ignition

process until all the air has been purged.
