HERCULES Condensing combines the advantages of an ecological condensing boiler with VICTRIX Superior type microprocessor with those of a floor standing boiler with storage tank. The range envisions two versions with useful heat outputs of 23.9 kW (20554 kcal/h) and 32.0 kW (27520 kcal/h). Both models are equipped with a total premix combustion system, which guarantees particularly low pollutant emissions and allows functioning with methane or LPG. Thanks to condensation technology, it is characterised for its high efficiency and for the large modulating field (20÷100% of the nominal heat output). The hydraulic circuit, made up from one stainless steel water-gas coil exchanger, a hydraulic manifold inserted as per standard and two pumps, means that the boiler is suitable for the heating systems that require high flow rate. HERCULES Condensing can function in zone systems controlled by pumps: it is, in fact, prepared to house the pumps necessary to control up to 3 zones on the heating system inside the casing. It is also prepared for the realisation of mixed systems: one high temperature zone (e.g. radiators) and two low temperature zones (e.g. floor radiating panels) by inserting the optional kit inside the casing (including pumps, mixer valves and zone management board). The new zone management board allows to use the Remote Control (optional) to control that considered to be the main zone. N.B.: The HERCULES Condensing ABT boiler is equipped to manage a high temperature zone (example radiators) and a low temperature zone (example floor radiating panels). The temperature of the flow water onto the low temperature zones can be adjusted on the boiler control panel (whenever functioning STHCkW ed 04/09 Disp.Non-Stop: 0729.983.578 with variable temperature is not envisioned) from 25 to 50°C. All models are prepared for coupling and connection of the storage tank to solar panel systems (optional). The new electronics allow the connection of the appliance to the Comando Amico Remoto and to the Super Comando Amico Remoto remote control; both allow to manage and control the boiler at a distance with great ease. Using the Super CAR it is possible to indifferently vary some settings from the boiler control panel and from the Super CAR control panel, such as: selection of Summer Winter, DHW set point, DHW comfort status, Reset. The adjustment and the control of the appliance are entrusted to a P.C.B. with continuous flame modulation. The boiler functioning parameters are set using the buttons and knobs while display of the status, functioning mode and anomalies takes place on the back-lit digital display. The DHW circuit is equipped with a 5 litre expansion vessel and a120 litre stainless steel storage tank which, as well as the advantages of storage, guarantees the instantaneous production of hot water. HERCULES Condensing must be installed using the intake/ exhaust kits or the ducting systems (Ø 60 mm rigid, Ø 80 mm rigid and Ø 80 mm flexible) realised in plastic and designed expressly for Immergas condensing boilers. 1 HERCULES Condensing Export http://reparatiicentrale.com.ro Technical Documentation Technical Documentation Main dimensions and connections.

The primary circuit, with relative control and safety devices, is started every time there is a central heating or domestic hot water request. Operation (see HERCULES Condensing hydraulic diagram). The heat contained in the combustion products is absorbed by the pipes of the water-gas primary heat exchanger with coil inserted in the condensation module (17) which then gives the heat up to the water made to circulate inside the boiler pump (26). The water is introduced directly into the hydraulic manifold (34) and therefore to the system or can be diverted inside the storage tank coil (1). This depends on the position of the motorised 3-way valve (28), which depending on request, allows flow towards the system flow and return pipes of the hydraulic manifold (34) or causes diversion towards the coil (1). Boiler pump (1). Operates on the primary circuit return immediately after the 3-way valve to which it is connected. It is part of the integrated multifunction unit realised in composite material.

It is an electric 3-way valve operating on he primary circuit return that allows, according to request (DHW or CH), to introduce boiler water into the CH system or the storage tank coil. This depends on the position of the shutter (5) which, closes the passage towards the system opening it at the same time towards the storage tank (DHW position) or vice versa (CH position). The shutter (5) is moved into both positions by powering the motor (1). The hydraulic part is made up from a group of composite material (2) that also integrates the pump and is put into action thanks to a motor (1) that causes movement according to necessity.

This allows the extraction of the two coils (13) connected in series to allow assembly of the solar panels kit (see “solar panels kit” functioning). These are made up from a concentric propeller-shaped stainless steel pipe, through the walls of which heat exchange takes place between the primary circuit hot water and the water contained in the storage tank.

Gas valve. The gas valve is equipped with two main coils controlled by the electric circuit and with a pneumatic unit that modulates the outlet gas pressure in 1:1 ratio to the pressure (P1) detected on the inlet of the Venturi pipe. The calibration of the ratio between the air and gas pressures are carried out on the valve (off-set) (see gas regulations). Electric coils (4). There are two ON-OFF coils that are powered with direct current by an integrated P.C.B. when the burner must be ignited. They are connected in series and powered through a connection connector (3). Pneumatic unit (2). Allows to vary the outlet pressure in 1:1 ratio with the pressure (P1) detected at the inlet of the Venturi pipe that is taken back to the valve using a small silicone pipe (1). Thanks to this system, the percentages in the air-gas mixture are maintained constant at optimal values on the entire range of modulation, thus guaranteeing a more or less constant combustion efficiency. The air-gas ratio calibration can be performed using the off-set adjusting screws. This is necessary only when, after having performed flue analysis, incorrect combustion parameter values are detected (see air-gas ratio regulation). The circuit consists of a total premix combustion system composed of a fan (5), a pneumatic gas valve (7), a Venturi pipe (3) and a special cylindrical burner (8) that operates inside the condensation module. Operation. The fan (5) is controlled by the integrated P.C.B. that varies its speed depending on the output requested. Its functioning allows to withdraw combustion agent air from outside of the sealed chamber and introduce it into a pipe where a Venturi pipe is inserted (3). At the inlet to the Venturi (3) there is a positive pressure signal (P1) variable in a directly proportional manner to the amount of air taken in by the fan (5) and which is detected by a pressure point connected to the pneumatic gas valve (7). The electric power supply of the valve main coils causes both internal shutters to open and allows the passage of gas, whose outlet pressure is regulated by the same pneumatic valve in a 1:1 ratio to pressure “P1”. The gas is injected at the entry of the Venturi pipes (3) through a nozzle (4), where the premix starts with the combustion agent air. The mixture obtained in this way is ignited on the surface of the cylindrical burner (8) by the discharge of the ignition electrodes (9).

Operates upstream from the combustion chamber and is positioned under the condensation module. It is controlled by the integrated P.C.B. with a positive square wave signal with variable ON-OFF (duty-cycle) ratio. Its speed is adjusted (from about 1100 to about 5100 rpm) depending on the power requested and is controlled using a sensor with Hall effect, which detects the number of revs. The fan withdraws the combustion agent air through a plastic pipe (1), which contributes to reducing the noise and optimises burner ignition. The variation of the air flow rate that is introduced into the mixing pipe, leads to the change of the pressure signal (P1) at the inlet of the Venturi pipe and allows the pneumatic valve to regulate the pressure of the outlet gas. 1 Venturi. The Venturi pipe (1) is inserted into a sealed pipe, inside which the combustion agent air and the gas are mixed. The air is introduced by the fan in the lower area of the pipe, while the gas exiting the valve is injected by a nozzle (2) in correspondence with the Venturi pipe inlet (1). The passage of air in the pipe creates a depression (“Venturi effect”) which, through the 4 holes (3) present at its base, allow to “drag” the gas inside and to mix it with the air. The nozzle (2) has a different diameter depending on whether natural gas or LPG is used as, working with both gases with more or less constant pressure, its section establishes the correct gas flow rate. There are two pressure points at the ends of the Venturi pipe, used to detect the inlet (P1) and outlet (P2) signals. Using two small silicon pipes, these signals are taken respectively to the pneumatic gas valve, which must regulate the gas pressure and to the negative pressure point (P2) arranged in the upper part of the sealed chamber. AIR 4 5 Burner. It is a cylindrical burner (5) made up from 2 concentric sheet steel sections, appropriately perforated and built using special steel that is particularly resistant to high temperatures and corrosion. It is inserted inside the condensation module, in a sealed combustion chamber closed by a flange (4) onto which the burner is fixed, which in the meantime guarantees its direct connection to the air-gas mixing pipe (6). The premixing, the lack of secondary air and the construction features of the burner ensure high combustion efficiency and particularly reduced pollutant emissions (see technical data depending on the model).

The functioning of the fan positioned at the entry of the airgas mixing pipe, guarantees the fan-assisted expulsion of the combustion products (5). These directly hit the first three elements (26 2 E) or 4 (32 2 I) of the primary heat exchanger inserted in the sealed combustion chamber (6), which has a sheet steel section on its base (7) that divides it from the condensation chamber (2) and diverts the flow of combustion products to the outside of the module. In this way the flue gases, before entering the condensation chamber (2), hit the fourth (26 2 E) or 5th (32 2 I) element (3) of the heat exchanger inside which primary circuit return water runs. This cools the combustion products further and makes their condensation easier before escape from the flue hood (1). The water condensate formed inside the heat exchanger, in the flue hood and also in the evacuation pipes flows into the lower part of the module from where, before being discharged, is conveyed into a trap (4). Any water formed in the intake pipes is collected in a valley gutter (13) and by means of a silicone pipe (10) is conveyed into the siphon (4) to then be drained away. 11 A flue safety thermostat is inserted onto the condensation module (12), to protect the flue hood (1) and which intervenes when the temperature detected on the condensation module exceeds 110 °C.

Its outlet is connected to the draining pipe (11) towards which the passage of water is allowed but not the passage of combustion products, which could occur following obstruction of the evacuation pipes. The height of the column of water in the siphon is in fact greater than the pressure detected inside the sealed chamber (module) with the fan at maximum speed and the evacuation pipes blocked at functioning limits. This, however, prevents the draining of combustion products into the sewers.

During the ignition phase the fan works at a speed equal to one third the maximum set (see heat output adjustment). Successively the burner goes to the minimum value set by means of the "MIN CH.*" parameter setting, to then reach the maximum value set (if requested) by setting the "MAX. CH" parameter in a determined time from the setting of the "CH RAMP" parameter. Successively, flame modulation takes place with reference to the difference between the temperature set on the boiler control panel and that detected by the DHW probe (B1). On exceeding (+5°C) the temperature set, the contact of relay K2 is opened with consequent burner switch off, whose switch/on time depends on the setting of the "Ignition timer" parameter. Every time the burner switches off the fan functions for 35 seconds and the pump performs post-circulation for 10 seconds.

The ignition of the burner is detected by the integrated P.C.B. by means of the ionisation electrode (E2). When the flame has been detected, the fan speed is increased in a way to immediately reach (if requested) the maximum adjusted value or that necessary to reach the set temperature. Successively, flame modulation takes place with reference to the difference between the temperature set using the DHW temperature selector switch and the temperature detected by the DHW probe (B2). When the temperature measured by the DHW probe (B2) exceeds the value requested (set temperature), the K3 relay is opened (burner switch-off) and after the post-circulation time (60 seconds) also relay K2 (boiler pump).

When the temperature of the DHW contained in the storage tank drops below the value defined and that can be set using the "DHW OFF" parameter with respect to the temperature set by the DHW temperature selector switch, the relays are closed again in order to start a new ignition cycle. If, during functioning, the flow probe (B1) measures a temperature exceeding 90°C, the contact of relay K3 is opened (burner switch off) which are closed again when the temperature drops to 75°C. When the temperature detected by the CH flow probe (B1) falls below 4 °C, the board gives consent for ignition and keeps the generator working with the burner at minimum output until a boiler temperature equal to 42 °C is reached (radiators anti-freeze). The anti-freeze function is not activated if the main boiler (Stand-by). button is selected DHW anti-freeze request.

During functioning, the water in the primary circuit remains below 42 °C as on reaching this temperature the board switches the burner off.

In case of functioning in domestic hot water mode the self-check starts within 10 minutes after the end of the withdrawing in progress, for duration of approx. 10 seconds. N.B.: the boiler remains inactive during the self-check, the display continues to show the functioning state previous to the self-check, to then re-start normal functioning. Electro-mechanical contacts block In the case of: high resistance of the safety thermostat contact (contact not perfectly closed or worn); anomaly on gas valve piloting circuit; no electric connection to the gas valve (connector disconnected or gas valve coils shut-off); error inside the integrated P.C.B, the latter performs a reset and starts a new cycle to check contacts; if the problem persists after 6 check cycles, boiler functioning is prevented. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. Parasite flame block In the case of dispersion of the detection circuit or anomaly in the flame control that generates a correct ionisation current (without the gas valve being open) with the duration of at least 20 seconds, boiler functioning is blocked. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. No ignition Ignition If within 10 seconds from the start of the ignition cycle, the detection electrode (E2) has not detected flame presence on the burner, boiler functioning is blocked. The integrated P.C.B. makes 2 ignition attempts with duration of 10 seconds, intervalled by a time of 30 seconds, after which it blocks. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. N.B.: It is possible to reset the anomaly up to 5 consecutive times, after which the function is prevented for at least one hour and one attempt is gained after every hour. Five attempts can be gained by pressing the or Stand-by key or by removing the power supply to the circuit. Safety thermostat block If the contact of the water overheating thermostat is opened (temperature of the primary circuit exceeding 100 °C), boiler functioning is blocked. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. STHCkW ed 04/09 Disp.Non-Stop: 0729.983.578 47 HERCULES Condensing Export http://reparatiicentrale.com.ro Technical Documentation Technical Documentation Low temperature zones 2 and 3 safety thermostat block If the contact of the water overheating thermostat is opened (temperature of the primary circuit exceeding 55 °C), functioning of the respective CH zone is blocked. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. Flue safety thermostat block If the contact of the flue overheating thermostat is opened (temperature of the external part of the condensation module exceeding 110 °C) owing to the combustion impurities deposited on the heat exchanger (soot, oxidations, etc...), boiler functioning is blocked. To re-start the appliance, press the “Reset” button "C" and then make a central heating or domestic hot water request. Insufficient circulation To prevent overheating of the water-gas heat exchanger if the pump is blocked or due to little circulation in the primary circuit, when the CH NTC flow probe (B1) detects an increase in the temperature exceeding 5 °C per second (for more than 2 consecutive seconds), the burner is switched off. Re-start takes place when the flow temperature falls below 43°C. Boiler pump post circulation To prevent overheating of the water-gas heat exchanger, at the end of CH (room thermostat opening), anti-freeze or "chimney sweep" request, the boiler pump (M1) is kept working for a period of 10 seconds. At the end of every DHW request, the boiler pump (M1) is left running for 60 seconds. Sealed chamber post-ventilation The combustion chamber is washed after switch-off of the burner at the end of any request and the fan works for 35 seconds. Sealed chamber postventilation following overheating safety block intervention After burner switch-off following an overheating block (water or flue gas), the fan is made to work for 510 seconds (8.5 min) at a speed of about 1/3 of the maximum set. Flow NTC breakage (B1) The breakage of the central heating flow probe (B1) is signalled by the relative anomaly and prevents functioning both in the central heating and domestic hot water modes. Low temperature zones 2 and 3 flow NTC breakage The breakage of the flow probe is signalled by the relative anomaly and prevents the functioning of the respective low temperature central heating zone. Return probe resistance breakage (R9) The breakage of the return probe resistance (R9) is signalled by the return probe anomaly. Breakage of the NTC DHW probe (B2) The breakage of the DHW outlet probe (B2) is signalled by the relative anomaly and prevents functioning in DHW mode, but functioning in CH mode is allowed. Flow over-heating ventilation T prevent overheating of the water-gas heat exchanger, if the boiler temperature detected by the NTC flow probe (B1) exceeds 105 °C, the fan is made to work until the temperature drops below 100 °C.
