The new Ideal
xtra range of boilers complements the market
leading range of condensing boilers. This new range is offered
in ten models with outputs from 80 to 560kW suitable for floor
standing application in either single or multiple applications.
Like all boilers the
xtra is offered as standard with
the high efficiency operation that you would expect from a fully
condensing boiler range. With non condensing efficiencies of up to
97.7% nett (88% gross cv), and up to 107.5% nett (96.9% gross
cv) at 30% load in condensing mode. The full range meets the
requirements of the latest 2006 Building Regulations (Part L2).
The fully modulating burner operation ensures that the boiler
operates as efficiently as possible throughout its firing cycle even
down to approx 20% (F80 is 30%) of the maximum rating. This
ensures that the boiler is able to match its output to all system
requirements no matter the size.
The full range is built around a solid and reliable cast aluminium
heat exchanger design comprising of several sections dependent
upon boiler size. Burner operation is a pre mix design with air and
gas mixed in the correct proportions and fired through a cylindrical
burner in the upper area of the heat exchanger. Heat is forced down
through the heat exchanger therefore ensuring maximum heat
transfer whilst condensate formed drops into the sump at the base
of the boiler. F320-F560 models comprise of two modules within
the one boiler, operating as previously described. Control of the two
modules operating simultaneously is built in to the boiler.
The sections build from front to back ensuring that all models in the
range have the same width e.g. 600mm (80-280) & 1200 (320-560)
making the full range easily transportable through standard doorways.
(high output models are delivered in suitable packs)
The full range meets and exceeds all current legislation governing
the design, manufacture and safety of heating boilers for
commercial applications. Low NOx emissions are a key factor of the
boiler with Class 5 performance across the range.
Optimum control is achieved at all times through the use of a
microprocessor control readily accessible on the boiler front.
Commissioning and full fault diagnostics are provided whilst remote

modulation to low outputs for
high operating efficiencies
indication of boiler run and alarm is standard. A wide range of
control options ensures easy application of BMS systems,
sequencing and sensor control.
plus
The
plus offers even greater flexibility of installation and
operation with outputs from 80kW to 280kW in a range of six
compact floor standing boilers and can be installed in multiple
formation to provide even larger outputs if the system requires.
High efficiencies are the norm for boilers and the
plus is up to 96.6% efficient nett (87% gross cv) non-condensing,
and 108.4% nett (97.7% gross cv) at 30% load. Even higher
efficiencies are achieved at lower temperatures. The fully
modulating gas/air design ensures maximum efficiency is
maintained down to as low as 11.6kW output. This class-leading
figure is achieved even with the largest model as the unique
plus design optimises load matching. The robust cast aluminium
heat exchanger comprises of several sections, each flueway or
module has its own burner fan, gas valve, ignition and safety
controls and after all have modulated down to their combined
minimum, modules are switched off to further match a reducing
system load. Wasteful on/off cycling is reduced to the absolute
minimum with the
plus, and a further benefit is that standby
support is built into the design.
plus boilers are designed for ease of installation and the flue
can be positioned to left, right or rear, whilst system and gas
connections can be made to left or right of the boiler. All to ensure
boiler house siting is as simple and as fast as possible.
Naturally the range meets the most stringent European Standards
governing safety and performance and is classified as low NOx
(Class 5). It is also the quietest boiler of its size at less than 50dBA.
The
plus uses advanced microprocessor based controls to
operate all electrical functions and provides full commissioning and
fault diagnostic displays. Furthermore it takes into account each
modules' operating hours and evens out their usage. Further
benefits are that Hours Run Meters and BMS control is built-in as
standard, whilst an outside sensor for weather compensation is
supplied with each boiler.
3
With the rapid shift evident within the commercial heating market to high efficiency products brought about by the changes to Building
Regulations it is inevitable that manufacturers will have to adapt to meet these challenging times. This demand for higher efficiencies is fully
recognised at Ideal Boilers and the brand is a market leader in this field. In order to meet this ever changing demand we are pleased to
introduce our range of floor standing condensing boilers which we are certain will reinforce our position as market leader.

xtra Range Performance
The Ideal
xtra 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 `2006 Building Regulations Part L2'
conservation of fuel and power. Approved efficiencies are up to
97.7% at 80°C flow based on nett calorific value of fuel (88%
gross) at full load. At 30% part load the efficiencies are up to
107.5% nett (96.9% gross).
xtra Range 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.
Volt free contacts providing remote indication of boiler run and
alarm conditions are fitted as standard.
External control of the boiler can be via simple mains units,
whilst a range of optional Ideal controls can also be provided (see
page 11).
F320 - F560 models - These models include 0-10v BMS
control as standard in addition of the boiler run and alarm.

xtra Range Boiler Operation
xtra
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 at the burner via the ignition/detection electrode
and ignition proved by the 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 with
modulation levels of the order of approx 20% (F80 is 30%).
F320 - F560 models - The two modules operate together as
described above. A small delay (i.e. 20 seconds) is built-in for
ignition between the first and second modules lighting.
In order to give you assurance and peace of mind a Certification of
Compliance to the 2006 Building Regulations Part L2 can be
obtained from the commercial heating department.

xtra Boiler Construction (80 - 280)
The construction of the Ideal
xtra sectional heat exchanger
design is of cast aluminium. A single fan is used to mix gas and air into
a cylindrical burner situated in the upper part of the heat exchanger.
Hot flue gases are forced down through the heat exchanger and
the resulting condensate is collected in a sump situated at the base
of the boiler.
Ideal
xtra 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.
xtra F80 - F280
A condensate trap is supplied for fitting 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 20) and
consideration should be given to frost protection..
xtra F320 - F560
A condensate trap is supplied for fitting to each module, and
the drain may be led directly into the normal drainage system. Slope
and frost protection should be followed as above.
