temperature. For information on the remote timer control, please refer to its
user’s manual.
Sliding Temperature
When the external probe (optional) is installed, the relevant external
temperature symbol is activated on the control panel display. The boiler
control system works with “Sliding Temperature”. In this mode, the heating
system temperature is regulated according to weather conditions, to ensure
high comfort and energy efficiency throughout the year. In particular, as the
outside temperature increases the system flow temperature decreases according
to a specific “compensation curve”.
With Sliding Temperature adjustment, the “Heating adjustment” temperature
becomes the maximum system flow temperature. It is advisable to set a maximum
value to allow system adjustment throughout its useful operating range.
The boiler must be adjusted at the time of installation by qualified
personnel. The user can still make further adjustments for better comfort.
Compensation curve and curve offset
Access the Sliding Temperature menu. Adjust the desired curve from 1 to 10
according to the characteristic (fig. 30) via the parameter “Curve1” and

system pressure falls to values below minimum, the boiler card will activate
fault 37 and the number of the module (fig. 32).
Once the system pressure is restored, the boiler will activate the 300-second
air venting cycle indicated on the display by FH.
Installation
2.1 General Instructions
BOILER INSTALLATION MUST ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, IN
ACCORDANCE WITH ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN IN THIS TECHNICAL MANUAL, THE
PROVISIONS OF CURRENT LAW, THE PRESCRIPTIONS OF NATIONAL AND LOCAL STANDARDS
AND THE RULES OF PROPER WORKMANSHIP.
2.2 Place of installation
The generator must be installed in a suitable room with ventilation openings
towards the outside in conformity with current regulations. If there are
several burners or
exhausters that can work together in the same room, the ventilation openings
must be sized for simultaneous operation of all the units. The place of
installation must be
free of flammable materials or objects, corrosive gases, powders or volatile
substances. The room must be dry and not exposed to rain, snow or frost.
If the unit is enclosed in a cabinet or mounted alongside, there must be
sufficient space for removing the casing and for normal maintenance activities
2.3 Plumbing connections
Important
The heating capacity of the unit must be previously established by calculating
the building’s heat requirement according to current regulations. The system
must be provided with all the components for correct and regular operation. In
particular, provide for all the protection and safety devices required by
current regulations for the complete modular generator.
They must be installed on the hot water circuit delivery piping, immediately
after the last module, within a distance of not more than 0.5 m. and with no
shutoff devices in between. The unit is not supplied with an expansion tank;
its connection must therefore be carried out by the Installer.
Do not use the water system pipes to earth electrical appliances.
Before installation, flush all the pipes of the system thoroughly to remove
any residuals or impurities that could affect proper operation of the unit.
Also, a filter must be installed on the system return piping to prevent
impurities or sludge from the system clogging and damaging the heat
generators.
The filter must be installed when replacing generators in existing systems.
The manufacturer declines any liability for damage caused to the generator by
failure to install or inadequate installation of this filter.
Carry out the relevant connections according to the diagram in sec. 4.1 and
the symbols on the unit.
High-efficiency circulating pump (optional)
The factory setting is suitable for all installations; however a different
operation strategy can be set with the speed selector (see fig. 33), depending
on the characteristics of the system.![ferroli FORCE W Wall Mounted Gas Boiler
- fig 29](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ferroli-FORCE-W
-Wall-Mounted-Gas-Boiler-fig-29.png) – Proportional Head Dp-v setting (fig.
34)
The circulating pump head will be automatically reduced with the decrease in flow rate required by the system. This setting is optimum for systems with radiators (2 pipes or single pipe) and/or thermostatic valves.
The strong points are the reduction in power consumption with the decrease in system demand and reduction of noise in radiators and/or thermostatic valves. The operating range is from minimum 2 to maximum 7 or 10 depending on the circulating pump model installed.
– Constant Head Dp-c setting (fig. 35)
The circulating pump head will remain constant with the decrease in flow rate required by the system. This setting is optimum for all floor systems or old systems with large pipes.
In addition to reduced power consumption, in floor systems all the circuits will be balanced for the same head loss. The operating range is from minimum 0.5 to maximum 7 or 10 depending on the circulating pump model installed.
– Fixed max. speed setting (fig. 36)
The circulating pump does not modulate its power. It will always work at the speed set with the selector. The circulating pump can be set to 3 speeds: 1 (Minimum speed), 2 (Average speed) and 3 (Maximum speed).
The operating principle is that of conventional circulating pumps (with a reduction in power consumption compared to them).
System water characteristics
Before installing the FORCE W generator, the new or existing system must be properly cleaned in order to eliminate installation residues, solvents, sludge and contaminants in general that may compromise the effectiveness of the protective conditioning treatments. Use neutral cleaning products that do not attack metals, rubber and plastic parts of the generator/system. Empty, wash and recharge the system in compliance with the following instructions. A dirty system will not guarantee the life of the generator over
time, even with the use of protective conditioners.
FORCE W boilers are suitable for installation in heating systems with non- significant entry of oxygen (ref. systems “case I” EN14868). A physical separator (e.g. plate heat exchanger) must be provided in systems with continuous entry of oxygen (e.g. underfloor systems without anti-diffusion pipes or open vessel), or frequent (frequent water replenishment).
The water in a heating system must be treated in compliance with the laws and regulations in force, have the characteristics required by UNI 8065, and comply with the provisions of EN14868 (protection of metallic materials against corrosion).
The filling water (first filling and subsequent replenishments) must be potable, clear, with hardness under the values indicated in the table below and treated and conditioned with chemical conditioners declared suitable by the maker (see following list), in order to prevent encrustations, corrosive or aggressive phenomena on the metals and plastics of the generator and system, the formation of gas, and the proliferation of bacterial or microbial masses in low temperature systems.
The water contained in the system, as well as the replenishment water, must be checked periodically (at every start-up of the system, after any non-scheduled intervention such as, for example, replacement of the generator or other system components, as well as at least once a year during mandatory routine maintenance operations as required by UNI 8065). The water must have a clear appearance and respect the limits given in the following table.
| EXISTING SYSTEM| NEW SYSTEM
---|---|---
WATER PARAMETER| |
Total filling water hardness (°f)| <10| <10
Total system water hardness (°f)| <15| <10
PH| 7 <Ph<8.5
Copper Cu (mg/I)| Cu < 0.5 mg/I
Iron Fe (mg/I)| Fe < 0.5 mg/I
Chlorides (mg/I)| CI < 50 mg/I
Conductivity (pS/cm)| < 600 pS/cm*
Sulfates| < 100 mg/I
Nitrates| < 100 mg/I
- In the presence of conditioners, the limit increases to 1200 µS/cm.
In case of differing values or difficult verification of values with conventional analysis/testing procedures, contact the company for additional evaluations. The conditions of the feed water to be treated can vary even significantly depending on the geographical areas where the systems are located.
Chemical conditioners deoxygenating, anti-scaling, corrosion inhibiting, anti- bacterial, anti-algae, frost protection, PH correction products, etc., must also be suitable for the materials of the generator and system. They must be put in the system respecting the quantity indicated by the supplier of the chemical product and verified in their oncentration.
A chemical conditioner in insufficient concentration will not be able to ensure the required protection.
Always check the product concentration each time it is added and cyclically, at least once a year, using qualified technical personnel such as our authorized technical assistance network.

Products with equivalent characteristics may be used
The unit is equipped with a frost protection system that activates the boiler
in heating mode when the flow water temperature falls below 5°C. The device is
not active if the electrical and/or gas supply to the unit is disconnected. If
necessary, to protect the system use a suitable antifreeze liquid that meets
the above requirements and provided for by UNI 8065.
To ensure the reliability and correct operation of the boilers, always install
a mechanical filter in the loading circuit and, in the system, a dirt
separator (possibly magnetic) and a deaerator as required by the UNI 8065 as
well as a volumetric meter on the system replenishment line.
Failure to comply with the provisions of this paragraph, “System water
features”, will involve non-recognition of the warranty and damage due to such
shortcomings.
Combustion chamber maintenance
To ensure the efficiency and reliability of the generator over time, it is
very important to contact our authorized technical assistance service, at
least once a year, for routine maintenance operations and also for checking
the combustion chamber and, if necessary, its cleaning. In this regard we
recommend the use of the following products, checked and tested on our

2.4 Gas connection
Before carrying out the connection, make sure the unit is arranged for
operation with the type of fuel available and carefully clean all the pipes of
the gas system to remove any residues that could affect proper boiler
operation.
The gas must be connected to the relevant connection (see fig. 82) in
conformity with the current standards, with a rigid metal pipe or with a
continuous surface flexible s/steel tube, installing a gas cock between the
system and boiler. Make sure all the gas connections are tight. The gas meter
capacity must be suitable for the simultaneous use of all the units connected
to it. The diameter of the gas pipe leaving the boiler does not determine the
diameter of the pipe between the unit and the meter; it must be chosen
according to its length and pressure losses, in conformity with the current
standards.
Do not use the gas pipes to earth electrical appliances.
In case of connection in cascade, make sure to install a fuel shutoff valve
externally with respect to the modules.
2.5 Electrical connections
ATTENTION
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY OPERATION REQUIRING REMOVAL OF THE CASING, DISCONNECT
THE BOILER FROM THE ELECTRIC MAINS WITH THE MAIN SWITCH.
NEVER TOUCH THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OR CONTACTS WITH THE MAIN SWITCH TURNED
ON! DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK WITH RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH!
The unit must be connected to an efficient grounding system in accordance with
applicable safety regulations. Have the efficiency and suitability of the
grounding system checked by professionally qualified personnel; the
Manufacturer declines any liability for damage caused by failure to ground the
system.
The boiler is pre-wired and equipped with a three-core connection cable to the
electric line without plug. The connections to the grid must be made with a
permanent connection and equipped with a bipolar switch with contact opening
of at least 3 mm, interposing fuses of max. 3A between the boiler and line.
Make sure to respect the polarities (LINE: brown wire / NEUTRAL: blue wire /
GROUND: yellowgreen wire) in the connections to the electric line.
The unit’s power cable MUST NOT BE REPLACED BY THE USER. If the cable gets
damaged, turn the unit off and have the cable replaced only by professionally
qualified personnel. In case of replacement, use exclusively “HAR H05 VV-F”

power supply for these devices from their cut-out contacts. Their power supply
must be taken with a direct connection from the mains or with batteries,
depending on the kind of device.
External probe (optional)
Connect the probe to its respective terminals. The maximum permissible length
of the boiler – external probe connection electric cable is 50 m. A common
2-core cable can be used. The external probe should preferably be installed on
the North, North-West wall or on the wall with most of the main living room.
The probe must never be exposed to the sun in the early morning, and in
general, as far as possible, it must not receive direct solar radiation; if
necessary, it must be protected. In any case, the probe must never be mounted
near windows, doors, ventilation openings, flues or heat sources that could
affect the reading. Accessing the electrical terminal block
The electrical terminal block can be accessed after removing the front panel.

2.6 Fume ducts
THE BOILERS MUST BE INSTALLED IN ROOMS THAT MEET THE FUNDAMENTAL VENTILATION
REQUIREMENTS. OTHERWISE THERE IS A DANGER OF ASPH YXIA OR POISONING.
READ THE INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.
ALSO RESPECT THE DESIGN INSTRUCTIONS.
IN CASE OF PRESSURES EXCEEDING 200 Pa INSIDE THE FUME EXHAUST PIPES, THE USE
OF CLASS “H1” FLUES IS MANDATORY.
Important
If installation of the unit is type B23,, with combustion air intake from the
installation room and fume evacuation by means of a fan (operation with
pressurized flue), it must be connected to one of the exhaust systems
indicated below.
Before proceeding with installation, check and carefully comply with the local
regulations and provisions. Also, comply with the provisions on the
positioning of wall and/or roof terminals and the minimum distances from
windows, walls, ventilation openings, etc.
Manifold, ducts and flue must be suitably sized, designed and made in
compliance with the current regulations. They must be made of suitable
materials, i.e. resistant to heat and corrosion, smooth on the inside and
tight. In particular, joints must be condensate proof. Also, provide for
adequate condensate drainage points, connected to a trap to prevent the
condensate formed in the flues from running into the generators.
Fume pipes connection
Before installation, make sure the maximum permissible head has not been
exceeded, by means of a simple calculation:
- Completely define the layout of the flue system.
- Consult the table 4 and identify the losses of each component.
- Check that the sum total of losses is less than or equal to the maximum permissible head in table 4.

Fume ducts
If installation of the unit is “type C13 or C33” with sealed chamber and
forced draft, the air inlet and fume outlet must be connected to one of the
evacuation/suction ystems indicated below. However, some configurations may
be expressly limited or not permitted by local laws, rules or regulations.
Before proceeding with installation, check and carefully observe the above-
mentioned prescriptions. Also, comply with the provisions on the positioning
of wall and/or roof terminals and the minimum distances from windows, walls,
ventilation openings, etc.
This C-type unit must be installed using the inlet and fume exhaust ducts
supplied by the manufacturer in compliance with UNI-CIG 7129/92. Failure to
use them automatically voids every warranty and relieves the manufacturer of
any liability.
For fume ducts longer than 1 m., during installation take in account the
natural expansion of the materials during operation.
To prevent deformations, leave an expansion space of approx. 2 ÷ 4 mm for
every meter of duct.
Coaxial duct connection
Any horizontal sections of the fume exhaust must be kept sloping slightly
towards the boiler, to prevent possible condensate from flowing back towards
the outside and causing dripping.
Before proceeding with installation, check with table 5 that the maximum
permissible length is not exceeded, bearing in mind that every coaxial bend
gives rise to the reduction indicated in the table. For example, a Ø 100/150
duct comprising a 90° bend + 1 horizontal m. has a total equivalent length of
2 m.
Table 5- Max. length coaxial ducts
| Coaxial 100/150
---|---
Max. permissible length| 10 m
Reduction factor 90° bend| 1 m
Reduction factor 45° bend| 0.5 m
2.7 Condensate drain connection
IMPORTANT
The boiler has a trap to drain condensate. Proceed as follows for assembly.
-
Secure the trap.
-
Before connecting the hose to the discharge system, fill the trap with water.
-
Connect the hose from the trap to the condensate drain system.
Drains connected to the drainage system must be resistant to acidic
condensate.
If the condensate drain is not connected to the waste water drainage system, a
neutralizer must be installed.
ATTENTION: THE UNIT MUST NEVER BE OPERATED WITH THE TRAP EMPTY! OTHERWISE
THERE IS DANGER OF SUFFOCATION DUE TO THE EMISSION OF COMBUSTION FUMES.
THE CONDENSATE DRAIN MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM IN SUCH A WAY
THAT THE LIQUID CONTAINED CANNOT FREEZE.

the maximum power.
To deactivate the TEST mode, press the contextual button 3.
The TEST mode is automatically disabled in any case after 15 minutes.
After activating test mode, to exit the TEST make sure to deactivate the
function, only by pressing the contextual button “Stop Test”.
DO NOT TURN OFF THE BOILER ELECTRICALLY DURING THE TEST.
If that happens, when the power is switched on again the system does not
recognise deactivation of the TEST, and starts working as though still in TEST
mode and not as in a normal heating demand.
Heating Capacity Adjustment (RANGE RATED)
This is a “RANGE RATED” boiler (according to EN 483) and can be adjusted to
the system’s thermal requirement by setting the maximum heating capacity for
operation in heating mode, as follows:
- Put the boiler in TEST mode (see sec. 3.1).
- Press the contextual buttons 1 and 2 to increase or decrease the heating capacity (minimum = 00 – maximum = 100). See the diagram “Heating Capacity Adjustment” (fig. 77).
- By pressing the OK button (detail 6 – fig. 1) the maximum heating capacity will remain that just set. Exit TEST mode (see sec. 3.1).
After setting the desired heating capacity, write the value on the sticker provided and place it on the boiler under the data plate. For subsequent checks and adjustments, refer to the set value.

3.2 Commissioning
Checks to be done at first lighting, and after all maintenance operations that
involved disconnection from the systems or work on safety devices or parts of
the boiler:
Before lighting the boiler
- Open any on-off valves between the boiler and the systems.
- Check the tightness of the gas system, proceeding with caution and using a soap and water solution to detect any leaks in connections.
- Check correct prefilling of the expansion tank (ref. sec. 4.4).
- Fill the water system and make sure all air contained in the boiler and the system has been vented, by opening the air vent valve on the boiler and any vent valves on the system.
- Fill the condensate trap and check correct connection of the condensate elimination system.
- Make sure there are no water leaks in the system, DHW circuits, connections or boiler.
- Check correct connection of the electrical system and efficiency of the earthing system
- Make sure the gas pressure value for heating is that required.
- Make sure there are no flammable liquids or materials in the immediate vicinity of the boiler
IF THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT OBSERVED THERE MAY BE RISK OF SUFFOCATION
OR POISONING DUE TO GAS OR FUMES ESCAPING; DANGER OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
ALSO, THERE MAY BE A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FLOODING THE ROOM.
Checks during operation
- Turn the unit on as described in sec. 1.3.
- Make sure the fuel circuit and water systems are tight.
- Check the efficiency of the flue and air-fume ducts while the boiler is working.
- Check the correct tightness and functionality of the condensate elimination system and trap.
- Make sure the water is circulating properly between the boiler and the systems.
- Make sure the gas valve modulates correctly in the heating and domestic hot water production phases.
- Check proper boiler lighting by doing several tests, turning it on and off with the room thermostat or remote control.
- Using a combustion analyser connected to the boiler fume outlet, check that the CO2 content in the fumes, with the boiler operating at max. and min. output, corresponds to that given in the technical data table for the corresponding type of gas.
- Make sure the fuel consumption indicated on the meter matches that given in the technical data table on sec. 4.4.
- Check the correct programming of the parameters and carry out any necessary customization (compensation curve, power, temperatures, etc.).
3.3 Maintenance
IMPORTANT ALL MAINTENANCE WORK AND REPLACEMENTS MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY SKILLED
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
Before carrying out any operation inside the boiler, disconnect the power and
close the gas cock upstream. Otherwise there may be a danger of explosion,
electric shock, suffocation or poisoning.
Periodical check
To ensure lasting proper operation of the unit, it is necessary to have an
annual inspection carried out by qualified personnel, providing for the
following:
-
Heat exchanger check and cleaning with suitable products if dirty or clogged.
The exchanger can be cleaned only when its temperature is under 40°C.
Clean only with suitable products approved by the manufacturer, e.g.:
ALU CLEANGEL
BIO HALL LIQUID -
Check and cleaning (if necessary) of burner (do not use chemical products or wire brushes).
-
Check and cleaning of electrodes, which must be free of deposits and properly positioned.
-
Check of gaskets and seals (burner, sealed chamber, etc.).
-
Check and cleaning of sludge remover filters and system filters.
-
Check, cleaning and filling of condensate drain traps.
-
Check of wiring, contacts, electrical actuators.
-
Check and cleaning of generator air inlets and boiler room air intakes.
-
Check and cleaning of fume evacuation duct-manifold-flue system.
-
Check of expansion tank and precharge.
-
Check of correct and stable system water pressure, ensuring conformity with the required working pressure.
The use of automatic filling systems for reinstatement of operating conditions must provide for adequate treatment of the water (ref. ”System water characteristics” on page 228 ) -
check of heating system water chemical and physical parameters (ref. ”System water characteristics” on page 228 )
-
water and gas system tightness check
-
check of correct and stable gas supply pressure to the plant (20 mbar for operation with natural gas); any fluctuations or pressure drops below the declared value can create malfunctioning and stops with need for manual resetting.
-
check of correct burner ignition and operation of control and safety devices (gas valve, flow meter, thermostats, etc.)
-
check of circulating pump operation, freeing them when necessary
-
fume analysis and check of combustion parameters
The boiler casing, control panel and aesthetic parts can be cleaned with a
damp, soft cloth, if necessary soaked in soapy water. Do not use abrasive
detergents and solvents.
Opening the front panel
Some internal parts of the boiler can reach high temperatures able to cause
severe burns.Before carrying out any operation, allow these parts to cool or,
alternatively, wear appropriate gloves.
To open the boiler casing:
- Undo the screws A (see fig. 78).
- Pull the panel B.
Proceed in reverse order to refit the front panel. Make sure it is correctly
hooked to the upper fastenings and is correctly positioned at the sides.
Extraordinary maintenance and replacement of components
Electrode replacement
Exchanger cleaning
3.4 Troubleshooting
Diagnostics
The boiler is equipped with an advanced self-diagnosis system. In case of a
boiler fault, the display lights up indicating the fault code and, in case of
cascade connection, the module number.
- There are faults that cause permanent shutdowns which can be reset by pressing the OK button for one second or with the RESET button on the remote timer control (optional) if installed. If the boiler fails to restart after resetting, it is necessary to eliminate the fault first.
- Other faults cause temporary shutdowns which are automatically reset as soon as the value returns within the boiler’s normal working range.
