1. Safety instructions
The following symbols are used in conjunction with
these important instructions concerning personal
safety, as well as operational reliability.
"Safety instructions" are instructions with
which you must comply exactly, to prevent risks
and injuries to individuals and materiallosses.
Danger through 'live' electrical components!
NB: Switch OFF the ON/OFF switch before
removing the casing.
Never touch electrical components or contacts
when the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position!
This results in a risk of electrocution that may
lead to injury or death.
The terminals are 'live' even when the ON/OFF
switch is in the OFF position.
NB

This indicates technical instructions which


you must observe to prevent damage and
malfunctions.
Diagram: Danger from electrical voltage and hot components

Diagram: Terminal box: Danger from electrical voltage

Maintenance

NB - only a heating contractor has the


necessary knowledge and expertise!

- According to paragraph 10(3) EnEV the user is required to


have the system serviced regularly to ensure the reliable
and safe function of the oil condensing boiler.
- The boiler should be serviced annually.
- Maintenance is explicitly detailed in the installation and
maintenance instructions.
- Isolate the boiler from the power supply before any
maintenance work is carried out.
- After a service and before the oil condensing boiler is
restarted, check that all components that were removed for
maintenance have been refitted correctly.
- We recommend you arrange a maintenance contract with
an approved heating contractor.

6. Standards and regulations


COB / COB-TS oil condensing boiler

- DIN 1988

Two-stage oil condensing boiler with electronic ignition and


electronic flue gas monitoring, for low temperature heating
and DHW heating in heating systems with flow temperatures
of up to 85C and a permissible operating pressure of 3bar.

- DIN EN 12831 Procedure for calculating the standard



heating load

The COB complies with the following regulations:


EC Directives:
- 92/42/EEC Efficiency Directive
- 2004/108/EC EMC Directive
- 2006/95/EC Low Voltage Directive
DIN / EN Standards:
EN 230, EN 303, EN 304, EN 15034, EN 15035, EN 12828,
EN 61000-3-2, EN 61000-3-3, EN 61000-4-3, EN 55014-1,
EN 60335-1, EN 60335-2-102, EN 60529
Stratification cylinder type TS made of steel S235JR with
connections to the on-site pipework.
Corrosion protection through enamel coating on the inside
of the cylinder as per DIN 4753 and additional corrosion
protection through a protective magnesium anode.

Open flue oil condensing boilers must only be


installed in a room which complies with the
appropriate ventilation requirements. Otherwise
there is a risk of asphyxiation or poisoning.
Read these installation and maintenance
instructions before installing the boiler. Also
take the technical guide into consideration.
Note:

- EN 12828

Heating systems in buildings

Designing DHW heating systems

- DIN 4701

Rules for calculating the heat demand of


buildings

- DIN 4751 Part 3 Safety equipment for heating systems with flow

temperatures of up to 95C
- DIN 18160

Flue gas systems

- DIN EN 1717

Protection of DHW against contamination in


DHW installations

- ATV-A-251

Materials for drain pipes for condensate from


condensing boilers

- VDI 2035




Avoiding damage in DHW heating systems


Scaling in general water and DHW heating
systems
Local regulations from building and
industry regulatory agencies (mainly covered
by the local flue gas inspector)

- DIN VDE 0100 Regulations regarding the installation of



high-voltage systems with rated voltages up

to 1000V
- VDE 0105

Operation of high-voltage systems, general


considerations

- DIN EN 60529 Protection through casings

The DHW temperature should be limited to a


maximum of 55C if the hardness of the hot
water is more than 2.86mmol/l. A reduced DHW
temperature prevents excessive scaling. This
cuts the level of maintenance and energy input.

Any damage or loss resulting from technical


modifications to the control unit or to the control
components are excluded from our liability.
Note:

Please read these instructions carefully before


the installation and keep them in a safe place.
Please also note the technical information in
the appendix.

To save energy and protect against scaling


if the total hardness is greater than 15dH
(2.5mol/m), the DHW temperature may be set
to a maximum of 50C.
If the total hardness is greater than 20dH
(3.58mol/m), we recommend using a water
treatment facility in the cold water supply line
for DHW heating, to prolong the maintenance
interval (descaling DHW heat exchanger).

Obtain the permission of your local flue gas inspector and


the lower water authority prior to the installation of Wolf
oil condensing boilers.
Wolf oil condensing boilers must only be installed by a
recognised heating contractor. This heating contractor
will also be responsible for the proper installation and the
commissioning of the heating system. The DVGW Code of
Practice G676, boiler room guidelines or Building Regulations
relating to the construction and installation of central boiler
rooms and fuel storage facilities apply.

Technical rules for DHW installations

The following regulations, rules and guidelines must be


observed during installation:
- Energy Savings Act (EnEG) and related directives
- EnEV Energy Savings Order
- Technical regulations for oil installations IWO-TRL 2006
in the currently applicable version

3062547_201408

7. Installation instructions
Transport
Boiler/stratification cylinder

- The boiler and the stratification cylinder are transported, fully packaged, on a pallet
- A sack truck is a suitable means of transportation
- Position the sack truck behind the boiler or stratification cylinder, secure with a strap
and transport to the installation location
- Remove strap and packaging
- Remove the four fixing screws on the pallet
- Lift the boiler and/or stratification cylinder off the pallet

- Install the boiler or boiler plus DHW cylinder on a level


surface which is substantial enough to carry its weight.

Installation information

- Level the boiler and stratification cylinder horizontally using


adjustable feet.

Adjustable feet

- The boiler must only be installed in a room that is protected from frost.
Drain the boiler, stratification cylinder and heating system if there is a risk
of frost when the system has been shut down.

NB

- Boilers should not be installed in a room that is subject to aggressive vapours


orin very dusty or highly humid conditions (workshops, washrooms, hobby
rooms, etc.).

NB

- The combustion air must be free from halogenated hydrocarbons.

NB

- A surface temperature of 40 C is not exceeded in the case of COB if


operated as intended. The respective national fire regulations are to be
observed in the case of installation in oil storage rooms.

Recommended minimum
wall clearance

The COB and TS are installed adjacent to the wall, which means that a clearance of
70cm only needs to be observed at the front. When installing the boiler, you should
observe the recommended wall clearances in order to simplify assembly, maintenance
and servicing.

8. Installation - general notes

Safety equipment
The COB has not been fitted with an expansion vessel at
the factory. This must be fitted externally (available from the
Wolf accessories range). The expansion vessel must be in
accordance with DIN 4807.
There should not be a shut-off valve between the
expansion vessel and the oil condensing boiler,
because otherwise the pressure build-up would
permanently damage the boiler during heating.
There is a risk of system components rupturing,
giving rise to a risk of scalding.
Exceptions are cap valves upstream of the expansion vessel.
The safety assembly from the Wolf accessories range includes
an integral 3bar safety valve. Route the blow-off line into a
drain outlet.
The minimum system pressure is 1.0bar.
The oil condensing boiler is permitted exclusively for sealed
systems of up to 3bar. The maximum flow temperature is
factory-set to 80C and may be adjusted to 90C if required.
Generally, the maximum flow temperature is 80C for DHW
operation.
There is no need for a minimum throughput at flow
temperatures below 80C.

Heating water
The return line to the appliance should have a dirt trap.
Deposits in the heat exchanger may lead to boiling noise, a
drop in performance or faults in the appliance.
Domestic hot water may be used as fill water and top-up water.
The addition of chemicals or de-scaling using single-stage ion
exchangers is not permissible.
In the case of high-volume systems or those where large topup water volumes (e.g. due to water losses) are required, the
following values must be observed.

0.3m3

Total hardness in dH

Note:
Provide a fill and drain valve at the lowest point in the
system.

Water treatment
necessary

Water treatment not


necessary

System volume in m3

If the limit curve is exceeded, an appropriate portion of the


system water must be treated.
Example:
Total hardness of the domestic hot water: 19dH
System volume: 1m
This means at least 0.3m = 300 l must be desalinated.
Permissible methods:
- Desalination using mixed-bed cartridges. These are
multi-stage ion exchangers. We recommend, for
example, using the "Megafill Alu" cartridges from
Taconova for the first fill, and later as and when required.
- Topping up with distilled water.
We recommend a heating water pH value of between
pH 6.5 and pH 8.5.
Wolf does not assume liability for any damage to the heat
exchanger caused by oxygen diffusion in the heating water. In
the event of oxygen penetrating the system, we recommend
a system separation through the interconnection of a heat
exchanger.
Inhibitors (substances to prevent corrosion
and limescale deposits) and antifreeze are
not permitted. There is a risk of damage to
the boiler resulting from poor heat transfer or
corrosion.

8. Installation - general notes


Information from VDI 2035
The method of commissioning in particular can affect scaling.
Heat the system with burner stage 1 with an even and adequate
throughput.
Before commissioning, all hydraulic pipes must undergo a
tightness test:
Test pressure on heating water side max. 4bar
Prior to testing, close the shut-off valves in the heating circuit for
the appliance, because otherwise, the safety valve (accessory)
opens at 3bar. The appliance has already been tested at the
factory for tightness at 4.5bar.
If the appliance is not watertight, there is a risk of leaks and
resulting material losses.
The maximum flow rate must not exceed 6000l/h (100l/min).

We highly recommend that you use low sulphur fuel oil


to protect the environment.
Information on the use of bio-oil blends:
1. Permissible bio-oil percentages
The COB (from date of manufacture May 2010) can be
operated with fuel oil with up to 10 % alternative constituents
B10- to DIN V 51603-6.
2. Bio-oil quality
The bio-oil must comply with EN 14213 when the customer
tank is filled.
3. Oil storage tanks
The customer must obtain written confirmation from the
manufacturer or supplier regarding the suitability of the tank
for the use of bio-oils, giving the maximum permitted FAME
percentage. It must be ensured that the tank fittings, gaskets,
filters and oil pipes are also suitable for bio oil.
4. Cleaning the tank
FAME acts as a solvent, removing all deposits and residues in
the tank and the oil lines. Wolf therefore always recommends
cleaning the tank before filling it with bio-oil.
5. Storing bio-oils
Bio-oil is a natural product with a lower shelf life than fuel
oil EL. Bio-oil must therefore be stored at low temperatures
(ambient temperature between 5C and 20C) and protected
from exposure to direct sunlight (in the case of plastic tanks
in particular).
Up-to-date information indicates that bio-oil should not be stored
for longer than one year, but the mineral oil industry is currently
searching for suitable additives to increase the shelf life.

10. Installation - boiler/TS cylinder


Example: COB-15/20/29 oil condensing boiler with TS stratification cylinder on the right,
floorstanding (when looking at front of boiler). The pipework for the heating
flow and heating return, as well as the heating water flow and heating water
return, are connected to the stratification cylinder with corrugated stainless
steel pipes (accessories) (see chapter 9 "Installation - accessories").

Cold water connection

We recommend the installation of a maintenance valve into the cold water supply line. A
tested and certified pressure reducer must be installed if the cold water supply pressure
is above the maximum permissible operating pressure of 10bar.
Provide a centralised pressure reducer if mixer taps are used.
Observe the regulations of DIN 1988 as well as those of your local water supply utility
when connecting cold water and DHW. Your warranty rights may be lost if the installation
does not comply with the illustration shown.

When selecting the installation material for the system, it is important to


observe the technical rules and any possible electrochemical processes
(mixed installation).

12. Oil connection in a single line system


Oil filter

Secure the oil filter with the holder in the positions provided on the outside of the
boiler casing. It can also be secured on the inside of the boiler. In this case, the oil
hose can be up to 90cm outside the casing when fed in from the top (to the back).

Notes:
Only use filter inserts made of sintered plastic with 25 - 40m.
The temperature must not fall below +5C. External tanks must have
supplementary heating facilities.
Contaminants can lead to system damage. The oil line must be flushed
prior to commissioning.
The system must be connected as a single line system. A filter/air vent valve
combination from the Wolf product range must be installed. Older two-line
systems must be converted to single line systems.
Two-line systems lead to accelerated oil ageing and the penetration of air into
the oil. They are no longer in line with the latest technology.
In order to prevent damage to the oil pump, the fuel oil must be supplied to the
filter using a suitable manual pump.

Single line system

Assumptions:
Kinematic viscosity 6mm/s at 20C, oil temperature = 10C
Additional pressure drops: 4 elbows 90, 1 non-return valve, 1 shut-off valve
In view of possible outgassing of the oil, an inlet height of more than 4m should be
avoided.

Oil lines that are too large may lead to operating faults caused by trapped air.
The oil line must therefore have the smallest possible diameter.
Single line system with pump lower than tank Only materials that are suitable for oil lines should be used. In the case of copper pipes,
only metallic compression fitting olives with support sleeves are permissible. They are
a reliable means of preventing air intake.
The oil lines must be installed while the system is isolated from the electrical
supply in order to avoid leaks.

Oil pump,

Floating air

With negative pressure controlled anti-lift valves, the negative pressure on the inlet side is
increased considerably. It is often difficult to adhere to the maximum permissible negative
pressure of 0.3bar in the oil line. We therefore recommend using electromagnetically
controlled anti-lift valves.
The electrical anti-lift devices can be connected to the COB in two ways:
1. The anti-lift valve is connected at output A1. For this, output A1 must be programmed
to 9 (oil shut-off valve), see HG14.
2. If output A1 is already being used (e.g. for a DHW circulation pump), an adaptor
plug can be used. The plug (mat. no. 1718768761) is inserted between the motor of
the oil pump.
When connecting a feed pump in the supply line, the negative pressure must not exceed
0.5bar.

13. Siphon/neutralisation/condensate pump


Condensate drain without neutralisation
If low sulphur fuel oil EL (sulphur content < 50mg/kg) is used,
it may be possible to forego neutralisation of the condensate
after consultation with the lower water authority.
The condensate may be discharged into drainage pipes only in
accordance with ATV DVGW worksheet A251. Nevertheless,
neutralisation is required if a sufficient quantity of domestic
wastewater (at least 20 times the volume of the expected
amount of condensate) is not added to the condensate.
Connect the siphon supplied to the connectors on the
combustion chamber pan.
NB

Drain hose, siphon

Siphon

Remove the sealing plug on the siphon plug


before installing the siphon.

With a flexible siphon drain hose, form a connection to the on-site


drain (condensate drain level from siphon 260mm).
When using a condensate pump, route the flexible siphon drain
hose into the condensate pump and form a connection from
there to the on-site drain.
Note: The siphon must be filled with water prior to
commissioning.
If the appliance is operated with an empty siphon,
there is a danger of poisoning caused by escaping
flue gases. For this reason, the siphon must be filled
with water prior to commissioning. Undo, remove
and fill the siphon until water runs out of the side
drain. Refit the siphon and make sure the gasket is
perfectly seated.
If condensate is directly routed to the on-site drain, ventilation
must be provided so that the drain pipe cannot affect the boiler.

Condensate drain with neutralisation


For standard fuel oil EL (sulphur content > 50ppm),
neutralisation of the condensate is required.
Note: The siphon and the neutralisation box must be filled
with water prior to commissioning.

14. Installation of a balanced flue system


Installation of the balanced flue system
NB

For flues and concentric balanced flue systems,


use only original Wolf components.
Please observe the technical information
regarding balanced flue systems prior
to installing the flue or the balanced flue
connection.
As regulations in the individual Federal States
[Germany] differ, we recommend consulting the
relevant authorities and local flue gas inspector
prior to installation.

NB

In the case of COB-15/20/29 the enclosed flue


gas measuring nipple must be mounted on the
air/flue gas connecting piece of the boiler.
Alternatively, the flue gas measuring nipple
can be mounted immediately behind that in a
horizontal position directly on the 87 elbow
fitted to the boiler. When doing this, however,
care must be taken that the air/flue gas duct is
installed above the appliance in such a way that
it is possible to remove the displacer (minimum
distance above COB-15/20/29 is 30 cm; in the
case of the COB-40 this is 40 cm).

C93x

Diagram: Example of a C93x balanced flue system


NB

The local flue gas inspector must have clear


access to the flue gas test nipples.

Flue connections are created using couplings and gaskets.


Always arrange couplings against the condensate flow
direction.
The balanced flue should be installed with
a slope of at least 3 (6cm/m) to the oil
condensing boiler. Spacer brackets should be
fitted to secure the equipment in position.
In the worst case scenario, a smaller slope
for the balanced flue may lead to corrosion or
operating faults.
NB

Generally bevel or deburr trimmed flues to ensure


a gas tight installation of pipe joints. Ensure that
gaskets are properly fitted. Remove all contamination
prior to installation - never fit faulty parts.

Between the flue terminal and the roof surface, there must be
a distance of at least 0.4m.

15. Filling the heating system


Filling the heating system

Fill the system and vent it properly to ensure


perfect boiler function.

NB

Air vent valve

Before connecting the boiler, flush the heating


system to remove residues such as welding
pearls, hemp, putty, etc. from the pipework.

- Open the cap on the vent in the boiler by one revolution.


- Open all radiator valves.
- Fill the system via the return line at 2bar (1.5 to 2.5bar).
- With the entire heating system and boiler in a cold
condition, fill slowly via the inspection/fill & drain valve at
the return until 2bar pressure is indicated.
- Check the entire system for water leaks.
- Start the boiler, set the heating water temperature to
position "2" (pump running, illuminated signal ring as
status indicator constantly green).
- Vent the pump; for this, briefly open and then retighten the
air vent screw.
- Vent the heating circuit completely, switching the boiler
ON for 5 seconds and OFF for 5 seconds at the ON/OFF
switch, five times in succession.
- When the system pressure drops below 1.5bar, top up the
water.

16. Electrical connection


General notes

The installation must be carried out by a


licensed electrical contractor. Observe VDE
regulations as well as all local regulations by
your power supply utility.

Terminal box

The power supply terminals are 'live' even when


the ON/OFF switch has been switched OFF.
Isolate the boiler from the power supply
before changing the fuse. The ON/OFF switch
on the boiler does not provide separation
from the power supply. Danger through 'live'
electrical components. Never touch electrical
components or contacts as long as the boiler
has not been isolated from the power supply.
Danger to life.

Terminal box

The terminal box is supplied fitted to the back panel of the


boiler.
If necessary, the terminal box can be mounted on the wall to
the right, to the left or above the boiler.
The control, regulating and safety equipment are fully wired
and tested.
Power supply
In the case of a permanent connection, provide the power
supply via a mains isolator (e.g. fuse, heating system
emergency stop), which ensures at least 3mm contact
separation for all poles. Connecting cable, flexible, 3 x 1.0mm
or rigid, max. 3 x 1.5mm.

Setting

Winter mode (settings 2 to 8)


In winter mode, the boiler heats the flow temperature to the value set on the thermostat.
According to the pump operating mode, the circulation pump operates constantly (factory
setting) or only in parallel with the burner activation / run-on period.

Summer mode
Winter mode is disabled by rotating the heating water temperature selector into position.

The boiler then operates in summer mode. Summer mode (heating OFF) means

only DHW heating. Frost protection for the heating system and pump anti-seizing
protection, however, remain enabled.

Emissions test mode


The emissions test mode is activated by rotating the heating water temperature selector

into position. The illuminated signal ring flashes yellow. After the emissions test

mode has been activated, the boiler will heat with the selected maximum output. Any
previous cycle block will be cancelled. The emissions test mode terminates after 15 minutes
or when the maximum flow temperature has been exceeded. To reactivate, turn the heating
water temperature selector anti-clockwise and then back into position
.

Anti-seizing pump
protection

In summer mode, the circulation pump operates for approx. 30 seconds after a maximum
idle period of 24 hours.

In parallel DHW mode (1), the heating circuit can temporarily be operated
at a higher temperature.
Parallel operation in conjunction with a stratification cylinder is not recommended.

The maximum DHW temperature is factory-set to 65C. If, for commercial reasons,
a higher DHW temperature is required, a maximum temperature of up to 80C is
enabled.
If pasteurisation has been activated (BM), the DHW cylinder will be heated to the
selected maximum DHW temperature during the first cylinder heating of the day.
NB

Factory setting: 65C


Setting range: 60 to 80C

Incorrect operation can lead to system faults.


Please note when adjusting parameter A09 (frost protection / outside
temperature), that frost protection is no longer safeguarded if you set
temperatures lower than 0C. This can lead to heating system damage.

Take adequate measures to prevent scalding.


Parameter HG22 (maximum boiler water temperature) should be set at
least 5K higher than the selected maximum DHW temperature.
DHW temperatures of over 60C are not permissible in conjunction with
a TS stratification cylinder.

The functions of input E1 can only be scanned and adjusted with Wolf control
accessories with eBUS capability.
The following functions can be allocated to input E1:

Explanation

Room thermostat
Closed contact is a prerequisite for enabling the burner in heating mode.
No function for DHW mode.
No function for emissions test mode and frost protection, no error message.
Open contact blocks the enabling of the heating and the heating circuit pump
(pump run-on).

Maximum thermostat/system pressure switch


Closed contact is a prerequisite for enabling the burner in heating and DHW
mode.
When the contact is opened, the burner switches off and the pump run-on
begins - no error message. Applies to all pumps.
When the mains power is on and the contact is open, there is only a pump
kick, no run-on.

Factory setting: 1
Setting range: 1 to 10

Flue gas/ventilation air damper


Function monitoring of the flue gas/ventilation air damper with zero volt contact.
Closed contact is a prerequisite for enabling the fan and burner in heating,
DHW, cascade and emissions test mode.
Output A1 must be programmed for flue gas/ventilation air damper function.
If output A1 is controlled and does not close input E1 within two minutes, Fault
Code 8 is issued.
If output A1 is not controlled, input E1 must also open within two minutes.
Otherwise FC8 is generated.
With FC8, the fan is controlled with 65% of speed stage 1.

DHW circulation pushbutton


After the DHW circulation pushbutton is activated, output A1 is switched on for
5 minutes, if output A1 is programmed as DHW circulation pump (A1 = 13).

Header sensor
A header sensor (5K-NTC) is connected at E1; observe parameter HG 06.

Burner blocking

The following functions can be allocated to output A1:

Factory setting: 0
Setting range: 0 to 14

Explanation
1

DHW circulation pump 100%


Output A1 is switched by control accessories (BM) if DHW circulation has
been enabled. Output A1 is constantly enabled when no accessory controller
is installed.

DHW circulation pump 50%


Output A1 is switched by control accessories (BM) if DHW circulation has
been enabled. 5 minutes ON and 5 minutes OFF. Output A1 constantly cycled
in 5 minute cycles when no accessory controller is installed.

DHW circulation pump 20%


Output A1 is switched by control accessories (BM) if DHW circulation has
been enabled. 2 minutes ON and 8 minutes OFF. Output A1 cycles constantly
when no accessory controller is installed.

Alarm output
Output A1 is controlled after a fault and expiry of 4 minutes.

Flame detector
Output A1 is controlled after a flame has been recognised.

Flue gas/ventilation air damper


Output A1 is always controlled before the fan starts. The feedback is checked via
input E1. If input E1 does not close, the fan and burner will not start, and after two
minutes FC8 will be generated. The flue gas/ventilation air damper is controlled until
the fan starts. If input E1 is interrupted during burner operation, the burner shuts
down. In case of a fault, e.g. pressure switch, flame failure during operation etc., the
flue gas damper is closed after the flushing time has expired.
Input E1 must be programmed as flue gas/ventilation air damper.
With FC8, the fan is controlled with 65% of speed stage 1.

External ventilation
Output A1 is controlled inverted to the burner. Switching OFF external
ventilation (e.g. extractor fan) during burner operation is only required, if the
boiler is operated as open flue system.

Oil shut-off valve


Output A1 switches simultaneously to the oil pump.

11 External pump
Output A1 switches simultaneously with the heating circuit pump. Use with, for
example, system separation.

HG15

The cylinder hysteresis regulates the start point for cylinder heating. The higher the
setting, the lower the start point for cylinder heating.

Parameter HG19

HG19

After completing cylinder heating in summer operating mode (the cylinder has reached
the set temperature), the cylinder primary pump will run on up to the maximum set run-on
time. The cylinder primary pump will switch OFF prematurely if, during the run-on time,
the boiler water temperature cools down to a differential between boiler and cylinder
water temperature of 5K, to prevent the boiler cooling down too severely.
In winter operating mode the calorifier charge pump runs on for a fixed period of 2 min.
(irrespective of parameter HG 19).

Parameter HG21

HG21

Cylinder heating commences as soon as the cylinder temperature sensor demands


heat. The heating circuit pumps would be constantly switched off if the boiler was
undersized, the cylinder was scaled-up or if DHW was constantly drawn off during
DHW priority mode. The accommodation cools down significantly. One option
enables a max. cylinder heating time to be specified to limit this effect. If the set
maximum cylinder heating time has expired, error message FC52 appears on the BM
module. The control unit reverts to heating mode and cycles in the selected rhythm
(HG20) between heating and cylinder heating mode, irrespective of whether the
cylinder has reached its set temperature or not. This function remains enabled even
in parallel mode (parameter A10 set to 1). It is only disabled if it is set to 0.
Set this parameter to 0 in heating systems with a high DHW consumption, e.g. hotels,
sports facilities, etc.

The control unit is equipped with an electronic boiler thermostat, with an adjustable
minimum switch-ON temperature. The burner is switched on subject to the cycle block
if this temperature is not achieved when heat is demanded. The minimum boiler water
temperature TKmin. is also not necessarily achieved when there is no heat demand.

The control unit is equipped with an electronic boiler thermostat which has an adjustable
maximum shutdown temperature (maximum boiler water temperature). The burner is
switched off if this temperature is exceeded. The burner will be started again when the
boiler water temperature has fallen by as much as the burner switching differential.
If the boiler water temperature exceeds 95C (possible effect of reheating), the boiler
circuit pump and cylinder primary pump (if installed) will also be started in "summer
mode". These pumps are stopped again when the boiler water temperature falls
below 92C. This prevents the boiler overheating.

Control / specification / notes
General

These oil condensing boilers have control PCBs with functions that are optimally
matched to the digital controller type KM for cascade control. Up to four COB-29
or COB-40 oil condensing boilers (with the same output) with an output range of
18.5kW to 112.8kW (cascade COB-29) or 25.3kW to 152.0kW (cascade COB-40)
can be linked together to form a single cascade. Subject to load, this digital cascade
controller KM can control the header flow, a mixer circuit and a DHW cylinder circuit.
The digital controller type MM from the WOLF range of control accessories can be
connected to regulate an additional mixer circuit and radiator circuit. Furthermore, a
BM can be used in each case as a remote control.
For a detailed description, see also the installation instructions for the individual modules.

Setting the eBUS address for


cascade mode
(see installation instructions for
KM module)

The eBUS address is set by pressing the reset button for at least 5 seconds after
the appliance has been switched on. After 5 seconds, the corresponding flashing
code appears (in accordance with the table) at the illuminated signal ring. Select the
corresponding eBUS address with the DHW temperature rotary selector. Your selection
of the required eBUS address is saved by releasing the reset button. No address can
be allocated more than once.

DHW cylinder

A DHW cylinder is generally connected downstream of the system separation (e.g. via
a low loss header).
Cylinder heating is controlled via the cascade controller type KM, to which a cylinder
primary pump and the electronic cylinder sensor are connected.

Heating circuit

To ensure the heating water flow rate through every condensing boiler is as even as
possible, the following connection types are recommended:
1. For precise hydraulic balancing, a line regulating valve can be fitted in the supply
line to every appliance.
2. Design the flow and return lines with the same length for the flow and return according
to the Tichelmann system, to ensure the pressure drop in every line is equally high.

Low loss header

It must not be possible for the on-site heating circuit pumps or primary pumps to influence
the function of the condensing boilers. A low loss header should therefore be installed
upstream of the heating water circuit or DHW cylinder circuit. Furthermore, ensure that
the heating water flow rate through the condensing boilers is set lower than that through
the subsequent heating circuit. The flow rate should therefore be set upstream of the low
loss header via a line regulating valve or butterfly valve.

System separation

Instead of the low loss header, a heat exchanger can be installed. If pipes are used which
are not impermeable to oxygen, this is a requirement in any case.

Flue system design
Balanced flue routing

Oil condensing boilers with a separate, concentric, balanced flue outlet (DN 80/125
or DN 110/160) above the roof, type C33x, may only be installed in attics, or in rooms
where the ceiling also forms the roof, or where only the roof construction is located
above the ceiling.
If the pipework for the combustion air supply and flue gas routing crosses different
floors in the building, route the pipes outside the boiler room inside a duct with a fire
resistance of at least 90 minutes, and in living spaces of low height with a resistance
of at least 30 minutes.
To prevent flue gas being drawn back through adjacent roof outlets where
several flue outlets are arranged next to each other, arrange the outlets at
approximately the same height and with at least 600mm between them.
The maximum permissible straight length for concentric balanced flue routing must
not exceed 16m with an internal diameter DN 80/125, or 21m with DN 110/160. The
calculated length of the balanced flue routing comprises the straight pipe length and
the length of the pipe bends. In this calculation, an 87 bend is calculated as being
1.5m and a 45 bend as being 1m.

Flue cascade

Flue cascades are only suitable in balanced flue operation. They must be designed to
EN 13984-1.

To prevent flue gas escaping, a flue cascade is only permitted with a tested

Flue gas routing with header

Oil condensing boilers with common flue routing - open flue operation in installation
type B23.
For open flue operation, there must be an aperture in the boiler room that opens to
the outside and has a clear cross-section of at least 150cm.
Where necessary, adapt the installation examples to the relevant Building Regulations
and requirements of your country/region. Discuss any questions relating to the
installation, particularly of inspection covers and ventilation apertures (ventilation
generally required above 50kW output) with your local heating engineer.

Installing the flue

In the vertical part of the flue, a cleaning and inspection aperture is required
immediately above or below the flue diverter if the distance from the centre of the
cleaning and inspection aperture in the horizontal part of the flue to the vertical axis
of the flue is greater than 30cm.
The distance can be up to 1m if the inspection aperture in the horizontal part of the
flue is arranged on the front and if there are no diverters in the flue from this cleaning
and inspection aperture to the vertical part.
In the upper part of the flue arranged inside the building (< 5m), a cleaning and
inspection aperture is required if cleaning or inspection cannot be carried out from the
roof.
Before commissioning the combustion system, have the safe usability of the flue
system confirmed by the local flue gas inspector [in Germany; check local regulations].

26. Cascade operation


Flue gas damper tightness test
Testing adjacent
appliances for
tightness

As part of the annual boiler test, the cascade damper in overpressure boiler systems
must be tested for tightness to ensure no CO2 can escape into the boiler room; risk of
poisoning or suffocation.
The check must be carried out with the appliance closed.
We recommend proceeding as follows:
Testing adjacent appliances for tightness
- Set the program selector (l.h. rotary selector) to Standby on the BM programming module.
- Then turn the first COB to position 1 Emissions test by means of the heating
water temperature selector COB starts.
- Operate the first COB for at least 5 minutes.
- On all other appliances, check the CO2 contents at the air connector:
- If the CO2 value exceeds 0.2% within 15 minutes, the leak must be found and
remedied.
- Subsequently close all test apertures again. When doing so, ensure the caps are
seated firmly.
Testing the first COB for tightness
- Turn the temperature selector for heating water on the first COB to its centre position COB shuts down.
- Turn the second COP to position 1 Emissions test by means of the heating water
temperature selector COB starts.
- Operate the second COB for at least 5 minutes.
- Carry out the CO2 test on the first COB.
- If the CO2 value exceeds 0.2% within 15 minutes, the leak must be found and
remedied.
- Subsequently close all test apertures again. When doing so, ensure the caps are
seated firmly.

31. Design information


General notes
Particularly for safety reasons, use only original Wolf
components for flues and concentric balanced flue
systems.
Where necessary, adapt the installation examples to the
relevant Building Regulations and requirements of your
country/region. Discuss any questions relating to the
installation of inspection covers and ventilation apertures with
your local flue gas inspector.

At low outside temperatures, the water vapour


contained in the flue gas may condense and freeze
on the balanced flue. This ice may fall from the roof
causing injuries or material losses. Prevent ice from
falling through on-site measures, e.g. the installation
of a snow catcher grille.

A clearance between the concentric balanced flue and


combustible materials or components is not required, as
temperatures are limited to 85C at the rated boiler output.
If only a flue is installed, maintain the clearances specified
by DVGW/TRGI 86/96 [or local regulations].




NB

NB

If the balanced flue crosses different floors, route


the pipes outside the installation room inside a duct
with a fire resistance of at least 90min, and in low
residential buildings with a resistance of at least
30min. Fire may spread if these instructions are not
observed.

Balanced flues without ducts must not be routed


through other installation rooms, as there is a risk
of fire spreading, and mechanical protection is
not ensured.

Condensing boilers with a balanced flue outlet above


the roof may only be installed in attics, or in rooms
where the ceiling also forms the roof, or where only
the roof construction is located above the ceiling.

The combustion air must not be drawn from chimneys


that used to carry flue gases from oil or solid fuel
boilers.
Ducts which were previously connected to an oil
or solid fuel boiler must be thoroughly cleaned
by the flue gas inspector. There must be no dust,
sulphur or soot residues left on the inner surface of
the chimney. If this is not possible, use a separate
ventilation supply. If the combustion air is drawn in
via the cleaned duct, the prior use can cause odours
in the boiler room.

Secure the balanced flue or flue outside ducts


with spacer brackets with a minimum clearance of
50cm from the flue outlet or upstream/downstream
of diverters to prevent the pipe joints being pulled
apart. If this is not observed, there is a danger of
poisoning caused by escaping flue gas. Furthermore,
equipment damage may result.

Connection to the balanced flue


The following applies to boilers with a balanced flue above
the roof, where only the roof structure lies above the ceiling:

If fire resistance is required for the ceiling, the pipes


for combustion air supply and flue gas exhaustion
running between the top edge of the ceiling and the
roof skin must be run inside a liner that provides
the same fire resistance and is constructed from
non-combustible materials. There is a risk of fire
spreading if these requirements are ignored.

The clear cross-section of flues must be able to be inspected.


Therefore, install an inspection and/or test aperture inside the
boiler room; agree suitable arrangements with your local flue
gas inspector.

Flue cascade
Flue cascades are only suitable in balanced flue operation.
They must be designed to EN 13984-1.

54

If fire resistance is not required, route the pipes


for combustion air supply and flue gas exhaustion
between the top edge of the ceiling and the roof
skin inside a duct made from non-combustible,
rigid materials or inside a protective metal pipe
(mechanical protection). There is a risk of fire
spreading if these requirements are ignored.

To prevent flue gas escaping, a flue cascade is only


permitted with a tested flue gas damper.

Flue gas temperature limiter

The electronic flue gas temperature limiter switches the oil


condensing boiler off when the flue gas temperature exceeds
120C.
The boiler restarts when the reset button is pressed.

31. Design information


Connection to a moisture-resistant balanced flue
chimney type C43x

Connection to a moisture-resistant flue type C53, C83x


for balanced flue operation

Straight balanced flues must be no longer than 3m when


connecting the system to a balanced flue chimney. In addition
to the boiler connection tee, up to two 90 diverters may be
installed.
The balanced flue chimney must be CE-designated.

The straight, horizontal flue must be no longer than 3m.


For horizontal air supply pipes, a maximum length of 3m is
recommended. Observe special requirements for flues that are
not surrounded by combustion air in accordance with locally
applicable combustion regulations.

Connection to a moisture-resistant flue gas chimney or a


flue system type B33 for open flue operation
Straight balanced flues must be no longer than 3m when
connecting the system to a flue gas chimney. In addition to the
boiler connection tee, up to two 90 diverters may be installed.
The flue gas chimney must be CE-designated.
If necessary, the flue outlet should be obtained from the
chimney manufacturer.
The air apertures to the boiler room must be completely free
from obstruction.

Connection to a moisture-resistant flue type B23 for open


flue operation
The straight, horizontal flue must be no longer than 3m. In
addition to the boiler connection tee, up to two 90 diverters
may be installed in the horizontal flue.
The flue gas chimney must be CE-designated.

Connection to a combustion air and flue system type


C63x that is not tested together with the oil combustion
equipment
Original Wolf components are designed for long-term use and
are matched for use with Wolf oil condensing boilers. When
using CE-designated third party equipment, the installer is
responsible for the correct sizing and perfect function of such
systems. Faults, material losses and injuries resulting from
incorrect pipe lengths, excessive pressure drop, premature
wear with escaping flue gas and condensate or incorrect
function, e.g. through components working themselves loose,
are excluded from our warranty if non-approved third party
equipment is used.
Straight balanced flues must be no longer than 3m, when
connecting the system to a combustion air supply and a
separate flue.
In addition to the boiler connection tee, up to two 90 diverters
may be installed.
The chimney must be free from contamination if the combustion
air is drawn from the chimney.
