Operator’s duties
In addition to setting the control elements
(including control unit), the operator must:
1) comply with the Local Operating Mode
– LOM (or, if one has not been devised
yet, proceed in accordance with operat-
ing instructions for each device and its
components (for the boiler, control unit,
pumps, expansion vessel…) – refer to the
section General Requirements,
2) maintain the area around the clean
and neat,
3) make sure that no works unrelated to
running and maintaining the boiler are
performed in its vicinity,
4) enforce and secure (e.g. by warning
signs or locking the entrance door, etc.)
that no unauthorised persons are present
near the boiler (i.e. persons without nec-
essary knowledge, younger than 18, certi-
fied, etc.); the presence of such persons
in the boiler’s vicinity is permissible only
when accompanied by authorised per-
sons,
5) keep passages around the boiler and
entrance door free,
6) keep important operation records (the
so called Operation Diary – OD) as laid
down in LOM.
In addition to the measures taken in prac-
tical situations – see section General Re-
quirements – the operator must always
shut the boiler down whenever it becomes
impossible to control the boiler reliably,
even manually. Supplies must always be
shut off in the event of leaks of any media
(in particular gas, but also heating water
and electricity) and an authorised service
called.
The operator must also shut the boiler
down and close all supplies (if necessary
not only in the boiler’s vicinity but also sup-
plies to the building or at least its relevant
part) even if undesirable situations have
not occurred yet, but there is a danger that
they might occur (e.g. when fire breaks in
the building).
Preparing and starting the boiler
Preparing and starting the boiler up is part
of the process of putting the boiler into op-
eration, which must be performed by au-
thorised service.
First live test run
The first live test run is a short live run of
the boiler to make the last check whether
the boiler has been installed correctly and
the heating system functions properly. It
is part of the process of putting the boiler
into operation, which must be performed
by authorised service.
The actual operation
The boiler runs automatically according to
the setting of control elements, the user
performs only the following operations,
which have to demonstrated to the user
by the authorised service technician who
put the boiler into operation:
1. Switching the boiler on or off using the
power mains switch on the boiler’s control
panel.
2. Controlling the boiler’s operation using
selected control unit, which are always
supplied with separate operating instruc-
tions.
3. Setting and checking the required heat-
ing water temperature within a 0 to 85°C
range on the boiler’s thermostat.
4. Switching between nominal or reduced
output (HIGH/LOW).
5. When a fault is detected, a fault control
light will switch on. In the event of power
Running the Boiler
failure, the burner will be shut down, and
when power supply is restored, the burner
will be automatically re-ignited. The fault
state can be unlocked by pressing the RE-
SET button in the service section of the
control panel. If the fault reoccurs, call au-
thorised service.
6. Unlocking the emergency thermostat. If
the emergency thermostat shuts down the
boiler, the orange light on the boiler’s con-
trol panel will light up, signalling, “Boiler
overheated”. The thermostat is unlocked
by pressing button 11, situated in the
service section of the control panel. If the
fault reoccurs, call authorised service.
7. Unlocking combustion fumes thermo-
stat (reverse fumes flow safety cut-out).
When this detector shuts down the boiler,
the orange control light on the main con-
trol panel will light up, signalling, “Boiler
overheated”. The cutout device (TS) is
unlocked by pressing button 12, situated
in the service section of the control panel.
Important:
If the fault reoccurs, disconnect
the boiler from power supply and call au-
thorised service.
Important guidelines
1. The boiler room must have a permanent
supply of air.
2. The boiler operator must be at least 18
years old.
3. The boiler must be connected to 230
V/50 Hz power supply mains with appro-
priate circuit breaker.
4. When putting the boiler out of operation
for a longer period of time, disconnect it
from power mains.
5. If a defect occurs in the combustion
fumes exhaust system and is triggered
by the chimney thrust detector (reverse
thrust, blocked chimney), the reverse
fumes flow cutout device will shut off the
supply of fuel into the boiler.
6. The boiler room must be kept clean
and free of dust. All sources of dirt must
be removed from the boiler room and dur-
ing works, which generate dust (insulation
works, cleaning), the boiler must be shut
down. Even partially blocked burner by
dirt degrades the combustion process and
endangers economic and reliable running
of the boiler. We do not recommend keep-
ing in the boiler room any pets (dogs, cats,
etc.).
7. Before commencing any works, which
generate flammable vapours or gases that
might penetrate the boiler room, or works
with temporary fire or explosion hazard
(gluing on floor covering material, painting
with flammable paints), the boiler must be
shut down beforehand.
8. No objects made of flammable material
may be placed on the boiler or within a
distance less than a safe distance from it.
9. Getting close to or touching the flame
checking-window may cause burns.
10. The user must have the installation,
putting into operation, regular mainte-
nance and repairs done by a PROTHERM
authorised service. Failing to abide by this
condition will result in invalidating the war-
ranty provided by the boiler’s manufac-
turer. The Certificate of Quality and Com-
pleteness of the PROTHERM KLO Boiler,
after being filled in and signed by an au-
thorised service organisation, serves as a
Warranty Certificate.
11. The boilers must once year undergo
regular maintenance as laid down in
Chapter X.
12. The boiler must be run in accordance
with these Operating Instructions and oth-
