icos HE
The new icos HE range complements the best selling
range
and extends the Ideal wall hung condensing boiler range to lower
outputs. The icos meets the needs of smaller properties and those
areas with lower heat loads. The range consists of two models with
outputs from 30 to 36kW, which may be installed in multiples if
required.
As with the
range, icos boilers provide high efficiencies of
98.7% nett (88.9% gross) non-condensing and over 108% nett
(97.3% gross) at 30% load. Even higher efficiencies are achieved at
lower system temperatures. The fully modulating gas/air design
ensures maximum efficiency is maintained down to 10.4kW output.
Naturally such performance exceeds the Seasonal Efficiency
requirements of the latest Building Regulations.
A robust monobloc cast aluminium heat exchanger provides a very
compact and system tolerant design with down firing fan assisted
burner, with condensate sump beneath. The pre mix burner design
ensures the lowest level of emissions achieving Class 5 NOx levels.
A wide range of flue options provides excellent siting flexibility with a
choice of concentric or twin pipe flues for longer runs. Both provide
a choice of horizontal and vertical terminal options. For the awkward
installations where flue pluming can be an issue from horizontal
flues, High Level Flue Outlet kits provide the answer.
The icos range is controlled by an advanced microprocessor system
ensuring correct operation of ignition, flame detection, temperature
and burner modulation. An easily read display provides full
commissioning and diagnostic display information.
The small size coupled with ease of installation and siting makes it
one of the simplest boiler ranges to install and service.
W
The Ideal
W wall mounted boiler comes in a range of outputs
45, 60, 80 or 100kW and all are capable of being installed as a
single unit or in simple modular formations for even bigger outputs.
The
W is a highly efficient fully condensing boiler - up to 98%
efficient nett (88.5% gross) non condensing and an impressive
108% nett (97.3% gross cv) at 30% load, fully condensing. Even
higher efficiencies are achieved at lower system temperatures. The
fully modulating gas/air design ensures that maximum efficiency is
maintained down to very low loads reflecting the needs of modern
systems. At its heart is a robust cast aluminium heat exchanger
providing a compact, space saving design making this the ideal
boiler for plant rooms where space is at a premium.
Ideal
boilers are fan assisted and have been designed with
siting flexibility in mind. Flues can be concentric, twin duct, room
sealed or open flued in single or multiple installations. It is one of
the easiest commercial boiler ranges to install and service.
The premix burner design ensures the lowest level of emissions. The
range has been approved to the most stringent European Standards
governing safety and performance of commercial boilers and is
classified as low NOx (Class 5).
The Ideal
W incorporates an advanced microprocessor based
control system which operates all electrical functions of the boiler
including ignition, flame detection, temperature control and burner
modulation. In addition the system has full commissioning and fault
diagnostic displays, and two remote indication contacts as standard.
The boilers are offered with an extensive range of option kits
including flues, system controls including BMS (0-10v) interface and
modular header kits for maximum flexibility and ease of
specification.
Conforms with all relevant
European standards and
requirements

icos HE Boiler Construction
Ideal icos wall mounted boilers feature `monobloc' aluminium heat
exchangers.
The heat exchanger is mounted in a sealed white enamelled
steel casing.
A premix downfiring burner is mounted above the heat exchanger.
A cast aluminium sump is fitted below with condensate drain
connection.
The concentric flue outlet and air inlet is positioned on the boiler
top, with system connections at the top and gas connection at base.
Controls are immediately accessible at lower front. Maintenance
and servicing is all achieved from the boiler front.
icos HE Condensate Drain
Ideal icos boilers will produce condensate whenever the
temperature of the return water from the system is below
approximately 55°C (the dew point of the combustion products).
Natural Gas condensate is mildly acidic with a pH value of about
4 and therefore corrosion resistant materials must be used in the
construction of the condensate drain. Standard PVC pipe is suitable
for this purpose and should be connected to the plastic drain fitted
on the boiler.
A condensate trap is fitted to the boiler and the drain may be led
directly into the normal drainage system. The pipe should be
installed with an adequate slope (eg 1 in 50) and consideration
should be given to frost protection.

W boilers are also designed for multiple boiler installations.
Such installations can be an advantage in many situations:
· Compact size means easier location, transportation and
handling.
· Close load matching means higher annual operating
efficiencies.
· Inherent reliability and service continuity. One boiler may be
shut down for servicing whilst the remainder continue
operating.
· A sequencer kit and multiple boiler pipework kits are available
for the

The header kit comes complete with all the components
necessary to complete a multiple installation:
· Gas and water headers (2 or 3 boilers)
· Mixing header
· Individual flow, return and gas connection pipework
incorporating isolating valves
· All necessary mounting brackets for pipework
Ideal
W boilers are also designed for use with a boiler
frame mounting kit which allows boilers to be mounted onto a free
standing boiler frame rather than onto the wall.
This frame mounting kit is especially useful when wall space is

W Flue Kits
W Only
The flue kits are suitable for use with the Ideal
boiler only.
These kits and the associated options are suitable for both roof
and wall mounting applications.
Several flue options are available:
· Horizontal flue kits (80/125mm or 100/150mm dia.)
· Vertical roof flue kits (80/125mm or 100/150mm dia.)
· Twin pipe flue kits (80mm dia.)
· Open flue kits
The twin pipe flue kit is suitable where particularly long flue
runs are required and compact flue and air ducts are required.
The roof kit is suitable for both flat and pitched roof termination,
using a concentric flue (tube within tube) to run vertically from the
top of the boiler and terminating above the roof level.
If obstructions prevent direct flue routing then both 90° and 45°
elbows can be provided to offset any of the flue systems.
Accessories
Flue duct extension kits are available for flue lengths extending
beyond 1 metre. These packs contain additional 1 metre ducts and
may be cut to the desired length.
Elbows, 90° and 45°, are also available.
Weatherproofing
Where the flue passes through the roof line an adequate seal
must be made. This can be achieved by using either:
· Flat weather collar 125mm or 150mm
· Pitched weather collar 125mm or 150mm
Additional information covering selection and installation can be
found within this guide.
Flue Systems
To ensure safe and satisfactory operation, the boiler must be
connected to a chimney system capable at all times of adequately
evacuating the combustion products (see performance data table on
pages 5 and 9 for approximate volumes).
The Ideal icos and
W boilers are suitable for use in both
room sealed and open flue fan assisted operation. Ideal icos boilers
are suitable for use in room sealed fan assisted installations,
including use of air supply from boiler house. Connections for
combustion air inlet and flue products discharge are located on the
top of the appliance.
The jacket of the Ideal icos and
condensing boilers are
constructed such that it forms an airtight seal. It is therefore
important that the jacket of the unit is fitted properly whilst the
boiler is in operation.
The boiler is suitable for use in either single or multiple flue
configurations and can be fitted with a wide variety of flue systems.
Horizontal flue runs MUST be inclined at 1.5° (icos) or 2.5°
(
) to the horizontal in order that any condensate formed can
be discharged through the boiler.
icos and
W
All joints or connections in the flue system must be impervious
to condensate leakage and also any low points in the flue system
should be drained using pipe of material resistant to condensate
corrosion.
The flue duct termination point must be positioned so that it will
not be affected by adverse wind conditions and be free from any
obstructions. Note: A vapour plume will be visible at the terminal.
Therefore where possible terminal positions which could cause
problems due to plumeing should be avoided.
The use of a fan on the boiler permits long flue runs however,
the resistance of bends etc will reduce the overall length. Full details
of the icos and
W flue sizes and resistances can be found on
page 16 of this booklet.
NO additional diverter, stabiliser, or draught break should be
installed in the chimney system without prior consultation with Ideal
Stelrad Group.
Flues and terminal positions should be designed with strict
regard to the requirements of BS 5440: Part 1, BS 6644, IGE
UP/10 and the Building Regulations Part J as appropriate. Particular
attention should be paid to these for multiple boiler installations and
if required, the Clean Air Act.

icos HE Flue Kits
The flue kits are suitable for use with the Ideal icos boiler only.
These kits and the associated options are suitable for both roof
and wall mounting applications.
Several flue options are available:
· Horizontal flue kits (60/100mm dia.)
· Vertical roof flue kits (60/100mm dia.)
· Twin pipe flue kits (80mm dia.)
· High level flue outlet kits
The twin pipe flue kit is suitable where particularly long flue
runs are required and compact flue and air ducts are required.
A connector is used at the boiler outlet.
The roof kit is suitable for both flat and pitched roof termination,
using a concentric flue (tube within tube) to run vertically from the
top of the boiler and terminating above the roof level.
High level flue outlet kits allow the horizontal flue outlet to be
extended, external to the building upwards to provide a flue exit at
high level, overcoming plumeing problems.
If obstructions prevent direct flue routing then both 90° and 45°
elbows can be provided to offset any of the flue systems.
The maximum potential length for each flue type by boiler model
is shown in the table opposite, although allowances must be made
when elbows are used. The length to be subtracted for each elbow
used is also provided in the table below.
Accessories
Flue duct extension kits are available for flue lengths extending
beyond 1 metre. These packs contain additional 1 metre ducts and
may be cut to the desired length.
Elbows, 90° and 45°, are also available.
Weatherproofing
Where the flue passes through the roof line an adequate seal
must be made. This can be achieved by using either:
· Flat weather collar 125mm
· Pitched weather collar 125mm
Additional information covering selection and installation can be
found within this guide.

Water Treatment
Corrosion will always occur within a heating/hot water system to
a greater or lesser degree irrespective of water characteristics, unless
the initial fill water from the mains is treated. For these reasons Ideal
Boilers Solutions strongly recommends that when necessary the
system be thoroughly cleaned prior to the use of a stable inhibitor
which does not require continual topping up to combat the effects of
hardness, salts and corrosion on the heat exchanger and its
associated systems.
The Ideal icos HE
W boilers have an aluminium alloy heat
exchanger. Therefore it is important that if water treatment is used it
is suitable for the material of the heat exchanger. The ONLY water
treatments approved are `Fernox Copal' and `Sentinel X 100'.
Current suitability should be confirmed with the manufacturer direct:
Sentinel Performance Solutions, The Heath Business and Technical
Park, Runcorn, Cheshire Telephone: 0800 389 4670 or Fernox
Manufacturing Co. Ltd., Cookson Electronics, Forsyth Road,
Sheerwater, Woking, Surrey GU21 5RZ Telephone: 01799 521133
for technical information.
Any other treatment used will render the guarantee of Ideal
Stelrad Group for this product INVALID. The use of artificially
softened water is NOT permitted.
Gas
icos HE
W
Natural Gas models: If there is any doubt concerning the
capacity of the gas meter, available gas pressure, adequacy of
existing pipes or the size required for new service pipes, contact the
Gas Region for advice. Installation pipework should be fitted and
tested for gas soundness in accordance with BS 6891. The local Gas
Region must be consulted if a gas pressure booster is needed.
W 45, 60 & 80
Propane Gas models: Contact the local Propane Gas supplier at
the installation planning stage to ensure availability of an adequate
supply of gas. Installation pipes, cylinders and pressure regulators
should be fitted in accordance with BS 5482: 1. Bulk tank
installations must comply with the Home Office Codes of Practice for
the storage of LPG at fixed installations.
Ventilation
Open flued application
Safe, efficient, and trouble-free operation of conventionally flued
gas boilers is vitally dependent on the provision of an adequate
supply of fresh air to the room in which the appliance is installed.
Ventilation by grilles communicating directly with the outside air
is required at both high and low levels. The minimum free areas of
these grilles must be according to the scale below. The use of an
extractor fan in the same room as the boiler (or in an adjacent room
in communication) can, in certain conditions, adversely affect the
safe operation of the boiler. Where such a fan is already fitted, or if
an extractor fan is likely to be installed at a later date, then the
advice of the gas supplier should be obtained.

Open Systems
The system should be vented directly off the boiler flow pipe, as
close to the boiler as possible. The cold feed entry should be
inverted and MUST be positioned between the pump and the vent,
and not more than 150mm (6") away from the vent connection.
There should be a minimum height, 500mm (20") of open vent
above the cistern water level. The vertical distance between the
highest point of the system and the feed/expansion cistern water
level MUST not be less than 3 metres.
The information provided is based on the following assumptions:
The boiler is at the highest point of the circulation system.
Systems designed to raise above the flow tappings will, of course,
automatically require a minimum static head higher than shown.
The position of the open vent/safety pipe above the expansion
cistern water level is given as a guide only. The final position will
depend upon particular characteristics of the system. Pumping over
of water into the expansion cistern should be avoided.

Particular reference should be made to BS 6644: Section 2;
Subsection 11, Guidance note PM5 "Automatically controlled steam
and hot water boilers" published by the Health and Safety Executive
and Water Regulations Guide.
The information and guidance given below is not intended to
override any requirements of either of the above publications or the
requirements of the Local Authority, gas or water undertakings.
In general, commercial closed pressurised systems are provided
with either manual or automatic water make up.
In both instances it will be necessary to fit automatic controls
intended to protect the boiler circulating system and ancillary
equipment by shutting down the boiler plant if a potentially
hazardous situation should arise.
Examples of such situations are low water level and operating
pressure or excessive pressure within the system. Depending on
circumstances, controls will need to be either manual or automatic
reset. In the event of shut down, both visual and audible alarms may
be necessary.
Pressure vessels used must comply with BS 4814 and must
be sized on the basis of the total system volume and initial
charge pressure.
Initial minimum charge pressure should not be less than 0.5 bar
(7.2psi) and must take account of static head and specification of
the pressurising equipment. The maximum water temperatures
permissible at the point of minimum pressure in the system is
specified in Guidance Note PM5.
When make up water is not provided automatically it will be
necessary to fit controls which shut down the plant in the event of
the maximum system pressure approaching to within 0.35 bar (5psi)
of the safety valve setting.

systems are:

Performance
The Ideal
range offers high operating efficiencies,
together with the lowest possible emissions, and is certified to
comply with the Gas Appliance Directive (90/396) and the Boiler
Efficiency Directive (92/42), the European Directives governing
safety and performance of gas boilers ensuring high quality
performance.
The design of the boiler ensures high efficiencies at both full
and part loads to meet the new `Building Regulations 2000'
conservation of fuel and power. Approved efficiencies are up to 98%
at 80°C flow based on net calorific value of fuel (88.5% gross) at full
load. At 30% part load the efficiencies exceed 108% net (97.3%
gross).
Electrical Controls
The boilers incorporate an advanced microprocessor based
control system which operates all electrical functions of the boiler
including ignition, flame detection, flow/return temperature sensors
and output modulation. In addition the microprocessor displays
boiler status and a fault diagnosis program.
Two remote indication contacts are provided as standard.

Boiler Operation
icos and
W
On a call for heat, air is drawn into the boiler variable speed fan.
The fan inlet incorporates a special mixing arrangement for gas
supplied from the gas valve. The gas/air mixture is automatically
ignited at low rate beneath the burner via a spark electrode and
ignition proved by a flame rectification electrode. The flue gases pass
downwards through the heat exchanger and via the sump and flue
outlet to atmosphere. A plume of vapour will be visible at the
terminal due to the low exit temperature.
The boiler modulates its output according to demand via the
flow/return sensors and any external controls. The fan speed and gas
flow are adjusted under this electronic control to provide the correct
mixture and output. This maintains high efficiency part loads.
Condensation within the boiler will start to occur when the
return temperature is below the dew point (55°C). The flue gases will
condense and increase boiler efficiency by giving up their latent heat
to the system. Condensation formed within the boiler is removed via
the integral drain.
In order to give you assurance and peace of mind a Certification of
Compliance to the Building Regulations 2006 can be obtained from
the commercial heating department.

22
System Design
The efficiency of this range of boilers is higher than conventional
boilers because of the increased heat exchange area.
At return temperatures of 55°C and below, the differences
become more marked because the water in the flue gases starts to
condense releasing its latent heat.
In general, the lower return temperature, the better the efficiency.
In new systems it is best to design for the lowest flow and return
temperatures that are practical (subject to the lower limit mentioned
above). For optimum operation it is advised that the system be
designed on a temperature differential of 20°C.
Installation
For safety, a competent CORGI (Council for the Registration of
Gas Installers) registered installer must fit this appliance. CORGI
requires its members to work to satisfactory standards.
Boiler installation should comply with relevant British Standard
Specifications, Codes of Practice, and current Building Regulations,
together with any special regional requirements of the Local
Authorities, Gas Supplier, and Insurance Company, and in particular:
BS 6891 Low Pressure Installation Pipes, BS 6644 Installation

Pressure Hot Water, CP 342.2 Centralised Hot Water Supply,
IGE/UP/10 Installation of Gas Appliances in Industrial & Commercial
Premises, Part 1: Flued appliances.
All electrical wiring must comply with lEE Regulations.
Manufacturer's notes must not be taken as overriding statutory
obligations.
Minimum clearances from walls or other fixed objects to allow
for installation, maintenance, and the free access of combustion air
are shown in the boiler clearance diagram.
