and maintenance manual before placing the boiler

in operation.

Danger!

If installation, adjustment, modification, operation or

maintenance of the heating system is carried out by

an unqualified person, this may result in danger to

life and limb or property damage.

The directions of this installation and maintenance

manual must be followed precisely.

Contact a qualified service company or service pro-

vider if support or additional information is required.

Caution!

The operating manual is a component of the techni-

cal documentation and must be handed over to the

operator of the heating system.

Discuss the content of this manual with the owner

or operator of the heating system to ensure that

they are familiar with all information required for

operation of the heating system. If the boiler will be

installed in Massuchussetts, it must be installed by

an installer or dealer who is registered there.

1.3.1 Installation Guidelines

1.3.2 Boiler Room Guidelines

1.4 Tools, Materials and Accessories

For the installation and maintenance of the boiler you

will need typical tools used in this industry.

In addition, the following components are useful:

•Hand truck with strap or boiler cart.

•Wood blocking.

•Cleaning brushes and/or chemical cleaning agents for

wet cleaning.

If the boiler is delivered in sections, you will also require

the following:

•Compression tool 1.2 if the boiler is supplied in

sections (Æcompression tool documentation).

•Flat board.

•Cleaning agent.

•Installation kit (accessory)

•Steel hammer and wooden or rubber mallet

CAUTION: DANGER TO LIFE

from electric shock.

BDo not work on electrical components

unless you have the required

qualification.

BDo not work on electrical components

unless you have the required

qualification.

BPrior to opening the control: shut down

the power supply by turning off the

emergency shut-off switch or

disengaging the heating system circuit

breaker, and prevent from accidental

reactivation.

BObserve all applicable installation

guidelines.

CAUTION: DANGER TO LIFE

from explosion of volatile gases.

BWork on gas components must be carried

out by qualified and authorized

personnel only.

CAUTION: DANGER TO LIFE

from explosion of volatile gases.

If you notic a smell of gas there is a risk of

explosion.

BExtinguish all open flames.

BDo not smoke.

BDo not use lighting.

BPrevent sparks. Do not operate electrical

switches , including telephones, plugs or

doorbells.

BClose the main gas shut-off valve.

BOpen windows and doors.

BWarn all occupants, but do not use

doorbells.

BCall gas company from outside the

building.

BIf you hear gas escaping, immediately

leave the building, prevent others from

entering and notify police and fire

brigade from outside the building.

CAUTION: DANGER TO LIFE

from flue gas poisoning.

Insufficient combustion air can result in

dangerous operation if combustion air is

taken from indoors.

BPlease observe that combustion air

openings are not reduced in size or

closed.

BMake sure that no mechanical air

openings or devices remove combustion

air from the boiler room such as central

vacuum systems, dryers and air

conditioning appliances.

BMake sure that the boiler is connected to

a chimney or horizontal venting system

that is capable of handling the slight

positive breeching pressure.

BIf any of these problems have not been

corrected, the boiler must not be

operated.

BMake the end-user aware of these

guidelines and their potential danger.

CAUTION: FIRE DANGER

due to flammable or liquid materials.

BMake sure that flammable and liquid

materials are not stored in the close

vicinity of the boiler.

2 Product description

This installation and maintenance manual contains

important information for the safe and intended

installation, initial start-up and maintenance of this

boiler.

The special oil or gas-fired boiler is generally referred to

below as a boiler.

The installation and maintenance manual is provided for

technicians who have been trained and have experience

in working with heating systems and oil/gas fired

installations.

2.1 Intended use

The Bosch Uni 5000F is designed for central heating and

domestic hot water (DHW) systems, for instance in

residential homes or apartment buildings, or small

commercial applications.

2.2 Certification and testing mark

This appliance has been tested and certified to meet

rules and regulations in place for the US and Canadian

markets.

2.3 Notes on installation and operation

When installing and operating the heating system, it is

the installer's responsibility to meet all applicable

federal, state, and local codes.

2.4 Heating system water quality

Poor water quality can damage heating systems due to

scale formation and corrosion.

Please refer to Chapter 2.8.7, Tab. 9 for further details

of the water quality.

2.5 Product description

The boiler is a low-temperature for oil or gas combustion

appliance with automatic control panel or aquastat for

boiler water temperature.

The boiler consists of:

•Boiler block with insulation

•Boiler jacket

•Control panel or aquastat

The controls monitor and control all electrical boiler

components.

The boiler can alternatively be fitted with a simple

aquastat control.

The boiler jacket prevents heat loss and acts as a noise

insulator.

The boiler block transfers the heat generated by the

burner to the heating water. The insulation prevents

energy loss.

Suitable burners

2Boiler jacket

3Boiler block with insulation

CAUTION: Risk of system damage due to

unsuitable boiler water.

BIf oxygen-permeable pipes are used, e.g.

for radiant heating systems, the systems

must be separated from the boiler by a

heat exchanger. Unsuitable heating

system water promotes sludge formation

and corrosion. This can result in heating

system malfunction and boiler damage.

CAUTION: Risk of system damage from use

of incorrect burner.

BOnly the burner provided may be

employed with this boiler.

2.8 Conditions for operation

Maintaining the specified operating conditions will

enable the boiler to provide a high level of reliability and

long service life.

1) Limit (safety temperature limiter, STB)

Maximum permitted flow temperature = Safety limit (STB) - 32 °F (18 K)

Example: Safety limit (STB) = 212 °F (100 °C), maximum permitted flow temperature = 212 ° (100 °C) - 32 ° (18 K) = 180 °F

(82 °C)

The safety limit must meet the national regulations of the country concerned.
