Combustion air is drawn into the inlet connection from second (constant temperature) return connection. This
the plant room (room ventilated version) or from outside additional connection enables the boiler to make full use
via the eccentric flue system (room sealed) by an air of its condensing ability whilst accepting both fixed and
supply fan. variable temperature returns from the same system.
On the inlet side of the fan is a specially designed
chamber (venturi unit) which takes gas from the multi-
block and mixes it in the correct proportions with the
incoming air. This mixing system ensures that the cor-
rect gas/ air ratio is delivered to the pre-mix burner at all
times.
Depending on demand (under the dictates of flow/return
sensor and other external/internal control inputs) the
‘abc®’ system determines the required boiler output.
The ‘abc®’ control then varies the speed of the air sup-
ply fan which alters the volume of air being drawn into
the venturi, this change in volume is measured using air
pressure differential which directly controls the volume
of gas also being delivered to the venturi. The resultant
controlled mixture is delivered to the premix burner.
This mixture is initially ignited by the combined ignition/
ionisation probe, which monitors the state of the flame.
Should the flame be unstable or not ignite within the
pre-set safety time cycle the controls will (after 5
attempts) shut the boiler down requiring manual inter-
vention to reset the boiler. The digital display will indi-
cate a flashing fault code confirming the reason for the
failure.
The products of combustion in the form of hot flue gases
are forced through the heat exchanger transferring their
heat to the system water, (the flue gas temperature is
reduced to approximately 5/ 8° above the temperature
of the system return water) then discharged via the con-
densate collector, to the flue gas outlet connection, to
atmosphere.
Because of the low flue gas exit temperature there will
be a vapour cloud formed at the flue gas terminal -this
is not smoke-, simply water vapour formed during the
combustion process.
If the flue gas temperature falls below dew point (55°),
water vapour (created during the combustion process)
will begin to condense out in the boiler, transferring its
latent heat into the system water, thereby increasing the
output of the boiler without increasing the gas consump-
tion.
Condensation formed within the boiler and flue system
is discharged from the boiler to an external drain via the
drain pan and siphon supplied.

The Gas 310 ECO can be used on all new and refur-
bishment projects in both single and multiple configu-
rations. Conventional and room sealed flue system
capability means that the boiler can be sited almost any-
where within a building.
The Remeha rematic® and “OpenTherm” weather com-
pensators (option) are able to communicate directly with
the boiler/s controls to make full use of their fully modu-
lating features, ensuring that the boiler closely matches
the system demand at all times.
External control systems (BMS) can be interfaced with
the boiler to provide on/ off - high/ low or modulating (0
-10V) control options.

8 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR ELECTRICAL INSTALLER

8.1 General
The Remeha Gas 310 ECO is supplied as standard with
electronic operating and flame ionisation safety controls
with a specially designed microprocessor at the heart of
the system.
The boiler is pre-wired as shown in the wiring diagram
in fig. 17. All external connections can be made on the
terminal strips (one low voltage 24V AC and one mains
voltage 230V AC).
For lasting installation an all pole main switch with
a contact opening of at least 3 mm, must always be
applied between the boiler and the electricity grid (EN
60335-1, art. 7.12.2.).

8.6 Boiler control

8.6.1 Introduction
The Remeha Gas 310 ECO can be controlled using one
of the following methods:
Note: when using on/off control the boiler will also
modulate to maintain the flow temp set point (param-
eter !)
- Fully modulating, where the output modulates
between the minimum and maximum value on the
basis of the flow temperature defined by the modulat-
ing controller.
- Analog control (0-10 volts), where the heat output or
temperature is controlled by a 0-10 volt signal.
- On/ off control, (one-volt free relay) where the heat
output modulates between the minimum and maxi-
mum value on the basis of the flow temperature set in
the boiler.
- High/ low control, (two volt free relays) where the
boiler is controlled by means of a 2-stage controller at
part load and full load.
fig. 19 Output control characteristic
In all cases, modulation is based on the required flow pdf

temperature and there is a dT dependent output control


with the following characteristic.
Up to a dT of 25° (factory setting, parameter H) the
boiler operates at full output. Between dTfull load and dTpart
load the output reduces in linear fashion (see fig. 19).

28
8.6.2 Modulating controls general (two wire control)
To make full use of the boiler’s modulating feature, an
OpenTherm® or a rematic® control can be connected.
These controls will provide optimised time and weather
compensation to achieve maximum efficiency and mini-
mum boiler cycling whilst maintaining design condition
within the building. An optional OpenTherm® or remat-
ic® interface must be integrated in the boiler control
box.

A. OpenTherm®
Celcia 20 - An optimising/ weather-compensated boiler
control for single boilers. This compensator can regulate
the boiler output against outside weather conditions, and
provide time and temperature control over the DHW.
The compensator is mounted in a reference room (uses
an internal sensor to monitor room temperature) and is
interfaced to communicate with the boiler’s controls via

i Note:
The Remeha Gas 210 ECO is supplied with a number
of factory default settings that should be correct for most
installations. If other setting values are required: see
sections 13.1. and 13.2.

The following operating situations are now possible:


25.a Modulating operation: The output of the boiler
modulates on the basis of the flow temperature,
asked by the modulating control (see ‘Note’ in
point 25c and section 8.6.2).
25.b High/low operation: The boiler is operating
at part load or full load, depending on the heat
demand (see section 8.6.5). On the safety
boundaries the boiler is going to modulate.
25.c On/off operation: the boiler modulates between
minimal and maximal output on the basis of the
flow temperature pre-set on the boiler (see sec-
tion 8.6.4).

g Important!! The boiler will initially operate in


forced part load. The factory setting for forced part load
time is 30 seconds. This setting is correct if modulating
controllers are used (see point 25a). A forced part load
time of 3 minutes is recommended for on/off operation
(setting mode, parameter *, see section 13.2.3).
25.d 0-10 V operation: Depending on the adjust-
ments, two situations are possible
(see section 8.6.3):
- The given off output varies linear with the sent signal,
2V = 20%, 10V = 100%
- The given off flow temperature varies linear with the
sent signal (depending on parameters a and B);
example: 0V = 0°, 10V = 100°.
The boiler modulates on the basis of the set flow tem-
perature (setting range 20ºC to 90ºC) and a maximum
∆T protection.

15.4.1 Inspection of air box and dirt trap


The air box has a dirt trap on the inlet side. Check this
for dirt, leaves, etc. If the boiler is closed, the clamp-
ing strip under the casing must be removed first, check
using a mirror if necessary.
There is an inspection glass on the air box on the fan
side. Check the air box for dirt using a lamp. If the air
box is dirty, it must be dismantled and blown clean.
If the air box is dirty, the following components must
also be dismantled and blown clean:
- non return valve
- venturi
- fan

plate, remove plate, be careful not to damage the gas- tion cover (next to the flue gas discharge) and then rins-
ket, store safely. ing the collector with water.
Heat exchanger can be washed with clean water, if
badly contaminated, clean with a small stiff bristle “bot-
tle type” brush or use the special cleaning tool (supplied
optional). Care should be taken when using water in the
confined space of the boiler casing to avoid contaminat-
ing the electrical controls. Compressed air can also be
used but care should be taken to ensure disturbed dust
etc does not contaminate the rest of boiler and controls.
Replace the heat exchanger front plate after the clean-
ing and tighten the retaining nuts.
