Schematic layout of the factory-supplied gas components
to be executed on-site by the 
installation company
The installation of the gas 
connection may only be executed 
by authorised technicians 
(authorised by the municipal 
gas supplier) in observance of 
the applicable provisions for the 
respective gas type.
The cross-section of the ductwork 
should be determined according 
to the connection value of the 
unit, the total output resistance as 
well as the amount of gas supply 
pressure.
The necessary gas supply pressure 
(depending on gas type) should be 
ensured on site.
The necessary amount of gas and 
the necessary gas pressure must 
be continuously available during 
operation of the unit according to 
its output.
The unit connection takes place 
through an R 3/4“ or R 1“ 
external thread connection.
The gas supply should be executed 
with a suitable, removable screw 
connection free of voltage and 
vibration.
The components described in the 
applicable gas guidelines as well as 
the locally required components in 
the gas supply, such as
gas pressure regulators, isolation 
devices, etc. are not included in 
the scope of delivery and must be 
provided by the customer.
Installing a high-output compatible 
gas filter without pressure 
regulator is also recommended, 
because the filter area of the serial 
filter installed above the gas valve 
is limited.
The applicable standards allow a 
maximum pressure of 60 mbar in 
the heating room; higher pressure 
values must be reduced prior 
to entrance to the heating or 
installation room of the unit.
Prior to the initial commissioning, 
the gas supply line must be 
thoroughly cleaned and bled 
through appropriate measures.
It must be ensured that the 
connection of the unit to the gas 
supply line is executed gas-tight.
All screw connections of the 
unit and the gas supply must be 
inspected for leakage integrity.
With use of leak detection sprays, 
they must correspond to DIN 
30657 (non-corrosive).
We reserve the right to modify the dimensions and constructional design as part of the ongoing technical development process.
ATTENTION
Installation work on the gas 
system and the supply lines 
may only be conducted by 
licensed technicians.
