different producer, it is necessary to use a system with identical parameters as for the certified type of the
chimney flue.

2 Boiler Application and Benefits


The VIADRUS K4 condensing boiler has been designed for combustion of low pressure natural gas.
The size of the condensing boiler is suitable for heating of family houses and recreational facilities as well as for
reconstruction of heat sources in individual apartment units. The condensation heat output is 5 – 24 kW,
10 – 33 kW.
The boiler body efficiency at the 50/30 °C temperature gradient varies in a range of 101 – 105 % depending on the
required output.

Boiler Benefits:
• Low gas consumption
• High combustion efficiency
• Smooth output modulation
• Easy attendance and maintenance
• The boiler enables connecting to a reservoir of hot service water heater and ensures its preferential heating
• Reliability of the regulation and safety components
• Low weight
• Equithermal boiler regulation

4 Boiler Description
4.1 Boiler Design
The boiler elementary structure consists in a condensing exchanger made of stainless steel pipes. It is checked for
tightness by test overpressure 5 bar. The boiler is further equipped with a premix burner. The combustion mixture is
mixed in a mixer in the preset air-gas ratio within the entire output range. Air is supplied to the mixer by a
modulation fan.

The boiler is made in three versions:


VIADRUS K4G1HXXXX version designed for heating only is equipped with a circulation pump
VIADRUS K4G2HXXXX version with a circulation pump and flow type hot water (hereafter referred to as “DHW”)
heater
VIADRUS K4G3HXXXX version with a circulation pump and a three-way valve ready to be used in combination
with a reservoir type hot water heater

The Honeywell automatics is an electronic control and ignition automatics designed for gas-fired central heating
boilers with a modulated fan and burner with preliminary mixing.

The combustion air inlet and the flue gas outlet may be implemented by several means as follows:
- to the chimney,
- through the wall,
- through the roof (either inclined or horizontal),
- to a joint shaft.
The boiler is an appliance in version C, i.e., a closed appliance with electronic ignition and flame ionization.

5.1 Modes of Operation


The controller has a number of operation modes:
• OFF mode, heat demands are ignored except for CH and DHW frost protection calling
• STAND-BY
• CH mode
• DHW mode
• TEST or INSTALLER MODE, option for the installer to test and set boiler parameters
• ERROR/FAULT conditions like high temperature, lockout, sensor fault, etc.

The priority of operating modes is fixed as follows:


1. Error/fault mode
2. Test or Installer mode
3. DHW mode
4. CH mode
5. Stand-by mode
6. OFF mode

In case of normal operation in DHW or CH mode and no error conditions it is always possible to enter the test
mode as the higher priority mode of operation. This implies that there are no error conditions present. If there was
an error condition, test mode can be entered after normal operating conditions are present again.

5.2 Lockout condition codes
Lockout condition is given with the capital "E" (error) on the status display and error
code on the temperature display:
Symbols or are being shown only in case of lockout condition which
needs to be solved by Service people or pushing push button.

Error code Description


E01 Ignition Lockout indication
E02 False flame indication
E03 High limit temperature protection (supply or return sensor)
E05 No frequency feedback from fan after 1 minute
E08 Flame circuit failure
E09 Valve feedback error
E12 EEPROM integrity lockout
E15 Drift sensors check failed
E16 Supply sensor stuck_at test failed
E17 Return sensor stuck_at test failed
E18 Cracked sensor test failed
E21 Adc failure
E33 Return water temperature sensor error
E35 Supply water temperature sensor error
E82 Flame loss

E01 Lockout signal after no flame and all ignition trials are expired.
This error condition is stopping the boiler and to get to the normal operation again, manual/remote reset is
required.
E02 If flame signal is measured with no heat demand currently present, error 2 is created. This error condition is
stopping the boiler and to get to the normal operation again, manual/remote reset is required.
E03 High limit temperature protection detected on supply or return sensor.
This error condition is stopping the boiler and to get to the normal operation again, manual/remote reset is
required.
E05 Fan driving problem – if the controller doesn’t detect the expected tacho signal from the fan for 1 minute
longer, error will be set. This error condition is stopping the boiler and to get to the normal operation again,
manual/remote reset is required.
E08 Flame circuit failure – The detected flame level is outside expected bounds, meaning a problem on
electronic components.
E09 Feedback error – The valve feedback doesn’t respect controller commands.
E12 The EEPROM check fails. The data in EEPROM are corrupted.
E15 Drift sensors check failed. Manual/remote reset is required.
E16 Stuck_at test on Supply sensor failed. Manual/remote reset is required.
E17 Stuck_at test on Return sensor failed. Manual/remote reset is required.
E18 Crack sensor test failed. Manual/remote reset is required.
E21 Adc failure. The adc test executed at runtime fail, that detect a major fault on electronic components.
E33 Return sensor out of normal operating range (short circuit or open circuit). If NTC sensor goes outdoor the
range (00÷125 °C), error will be generated. In case sensor is back to the normal operating range, lockout
can be cleared by manual/remote reset. In error mode, heat demands will be disabled. In case 2 or more
sensors are broken, controller will pick up the first that was outside the operating range. Resolving situation
can be achieved only if the sensor is within operating range again. The lockout error on this sensor is
necessary because is it used for high limit protection.
E35 Supply sensor out of normal operating range (short circuit or open circuit). If NTC sensor goes outdoor the
range (00÷125 °C), error will be generated. In case sensor is back to the normal operating range, lockout
can be cleared by manual/remote reset. In error mode, heat demands will be disabled. In case 2 or more
sensors are broken, controller will pick up the first that was outside the operating range. Resolving situation
can be achieved only if the sensor is within operating range again. The lockout error on this sensor is
necessary because is it used for high limit protection.
E82 Flame loss. The loss of flame during actual HD is counted and if it reaches a defined number of losses (#3)
error is set. This error condition is stopping the boiler and to get to the normal operation again,
manual/remote reset is required. The counter is cleared if flame is not lost for a defined time (4 minutes) or
the HD is removed.

5.3 Blocking codes
Temporary blocking condition is given with the capital "F" on the status display and
error code on the temperature display:
The boiler controller recognizes also the fault situations that can block the heat
demands but do not lead to lockout condition. When the error condition becomes
resolved, error will disappear but will be also written into the history data.
Symbols is being shown only in case of lockout condition which needs to be
solved by Service people.

Blocking
Popis
code
F07 Exhaust gases temperature is too high
F13 Remote reset volatile lockout
F34 Low power supply from mains
F37 Water pressure is too low (blocking code is shown alternatively with WP value if WPS is used)
F39 Outdoor sensor error
F40 The water pressure in the CH installation is too high
F41 Water filling (auto) is running
F42 Water filling (auto) not completed
F43 Low water pressure after auto water filling attempts
F47 Water pressure sensor not connected
F50 DHW solar storage tank BOTTOM sensor error (only when DHW configuration is 2 or 4)
F51 PT1000 temperature sensor error (only when DHW configuration is 2 or 4)
F52 DHW water temperature sensor error
F53 Exhaust gases temperature sensor error
F81 Drift test waiting

F07 If the exhaust gases temperature becomes higher than Maximum exhaust gases temperature controller will
stop indicating F07. The blocking timer of 15 minutes is set. If the exhaust temperature is within normal
levels after this time expired, F07 will be resolved by itself. Error can be reset by switching off and on the
power supply if the temperature is back in range.
F13 All the attempts to reset the error remotely, either from OT unit or by button, are wasted. It is a volatile
lockout which disappears after removing supply.
F34 Low Mains voltage (less than 170 VAC) will trigger this error. In case of boiler running, burner is switched
off. When mains brought back (over 170 VAC), error is resolved.
F37 Low water pressure error can be caused by the low water pressure (water pressure lower than Water
pressure low limit or water pressure switch contact opens). In error mode, the heat demand and the supply
pump are switched off. Heat demands are ignored.
Diverting 3WV is moved in CH position (if it is not already there).
Water filling parameter 0 (disable)
Error is self resolved when water pressure value comes back over the Water pressure nominal or water
pressure switch contact is being closed.
Water filling parameter 1 (enable)
By pressing K4 push button, water filling valve is activated for a period of time equal to Water filling timeout.
If during, that period, water pressure value gets higher than the Water pressure nominal or water pressure
switch contact is being closed, error code is cancelled and the water filling valve is switched off.
Otherwise, if at the end of the Water filling timeout, water pressure value is still below the Water pressure
low limit value or water pressure switch contact is still open, error code becomes blinking.
Another manual water filling attempt, is allowed only after a power down (power up) of the main voltage.
F39 Outdoor sensor out of normal operating range (short circuit or open circuit). If NTC sensor goes in short
circuit and this condition lasts for more than 3 seconds, error is generated. In case sensor is back to the
normal operating range, error is gone. Normal operating range for the outdoor sensor is from -40°C till
+50°C. With sensor broken in a way that he makes an open circuit, error will be generated only if a curve is
selected: OTC will be disabled but heating mode will be possible. In case 2 or more sensors are broken,
controller will pick up the first that was outside the operating range. Resolving error situation can be
achieved only if the sensor is within operating range again.
F40 High water pressure error, caused by the water pressure sensor. Water pressure is higher than Water
pressure high limit. In error mode, the heat demand and the pumps are switched off.
F41 – F42 – F43 Water filling (automatic). Auto water filling functionality is disabled if boiler is set in OFF mode.

F47 Water pressure sensor not connected. In error mode, the heat demand and the pumps are switched off.
Resolving error situation can be achieved only if the sensor is connected again.
F50 DHW sensor out of normal operating range (short circuit or open circuit). If NTC sensor goes outside the
range (-5÷125 °C), error will be generated. In case sensor is back to the normal operating range, error is
gone. In error mode, heat demands will be disabled. In case 2 or more sensors are broken, controller will
pick up the first that was outside the operating range. Resolving situation can be achieved only if the
sensor is within operating range again.
F51 Solar panel sensor (PT1000) out of normal operating range (short circuit or open circuit). If NTC sensor
goes outside the range (-20÷150°C), error will be generated. In case sensor is back to the normal operating

Children should be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
The boiler is fully automatic therefore we do not recommend disconnecting it from electric power.
The boiler is equipped with automatic anti-freezing protection (if electric power is supplied).
It is forbidden to intervene with any secured parts.
No flammable objects can be placed, built or suspended near the boiler and flue gas ducting (a safe
distance of the appliance from flammable materials in the main radiation direction is 50 mm and 10 mm
in other directions).
If any building reconstructions are performed in the close vicinity of the boiler, turn off the boiler with a
sufficient lead time and protect it from polluting.
Avoid cleaning of the boiler by flammable or explosive agents.
In winter (if leaving for a holiday, for instance) it is necessary to ensure the necessary inspection of
functionality of the boiler and the entire heating system in order to avoid possible water freezing
resulting in equipment damage due to some external reasons (such as electricity or heating gas supply
outage, and so on).
The manufacturer recommends the use of antifreeze Alphi 11 manufactured by Fernox or X500
manufactured by Sentinel approved for the Sermeta heat exchangers.
In case of boilers with flue gas exhaust into the surrounding environment through the peripheral
external wall of the building it is necessary to check whether the condensed water from flue gas in the
exhaust basket does not freeze in a frosty weather.
The boiler is fed with 230 V/50 Hz electric power supply.
While checking the tightness of the gas distribution and the valve connection, it is necessary to be
careful not to wet the coil of the gas valve!
In case of fire, extinguish the boilers as electric equipment.
Pay attention to any gas leakage (in case of any suspicion of gas leakage, shut off the gas intake and
ventilate the area - call a service firm). The gas valve under the boiler must always be kept freely
accessible.
It is necessary to avoid combustion air pollution with halogen hydrocarbons (contained, for example,
in sprays, solvents, paints, glues) and with dust.
During assembly, installation and operation of the appliance it is necessary to comply with the
standards that apply in the relevant country of destination.
If you fail to meet these conditions you cannot require guarantee repairs.

The manufacturer recommends placing these products in closed heating systems.


The expansion tank capacity is 10 liters. This volume is enough for approx. 150 l of water in the heating system. In
case of the capacity of the heating system more than 150 l it is necessary to install an additional expansion tank
with the capacity calculated for the actual capacity of the heating system.
The system should be designed for a temperature gradient of 50/30 °C due to the use of condensation. The
condensing boiler can also be used for old gravitational systems that usually were overdesigned and thanks to this
fact condensation can be efficiently used even for this system but it is necessary to expand this system with a
corresponding expansion tank.
Condensing boilers are equipped with a modulating pump Wilo.
Connecting to the DHW heating system and to the gas pipe is implemented through ball valves.

36
Servicing
10.4 Connecting to the Heating System and Water Filling
Water for filling the boiler and the heating system must be clear and colorless, with no suspended substances, oil
and chemically aggressive substances. The parameters of circulation and refilling water shall meet tab. no. 3.
When the water hardness does not meet the required parameters, it shall be treated accordingly. Several times
reheated water with a higher hardness does not prevent precipitation of salts on the walls of the boiler body. The
precipitation of limestone decreases the heat transfer from metal to water at the particular point by 10 %.
During the heating season it is necessary to keep a constant volume of heating water in the heating system and be
particular about bleeding the heating system. The water from the boiler and the heating system shall never be
discharged or taken for some other use except in cases of emergency like repairs etc. Draining of the heating water
and filling new water increases the danger of corrosion and scaling. If it is necessary to refill water into the
heating system, then add water only when the boiler is cold.

When adding water to the boiler, the system shall be disconnected from electric power supply. The bleeding valve
on the boiler and on the heating system shall be functional and open. Adjust the expansion reservoir to a pressure
which is higher by 10 kPa than the required pressure in the heating system. The system will be pressurized to the
required pressure of approx. 100 kPa and it will be vented again. We recommend using the filter on the inlet to the
heating system for water filling.
The heating system shall have a sufficient number of venting points. The lowest point of the heating system shall
be equipped with a drain valve.

10.5 Gas Connection


Prior to connecting the gas pipeline to the boiler, the gas pipeline shall be tested and subjected to revision
inspection. After connecting the boiler to gas pipeline, all gas connections shall be tested again by means of a
detector or foaming solution. The input pressure of natural gas shall correspond to the value in table no. 1.
While checking the tightness of the gas distribution and the valve connection, it is necessary to be careful
not to wet the coil of the gas valve!

10.6 Electric Power Supply Connection


The boiler is equipped with a flexible mains supply and a plug. According to ČSN EN 60 335–1 ed. 3 the
boiler shall be placed in such a way that ensures that the plug is freely accessible.
A 230 V/50 Hz socket should be located beside the boiler within a distance of 1.5 m. The socket shall correspond
to the effective regulations and it shall be subjected to revision inspection.

10.7 Condensate Discharge


A built-in siphon (trap) serves as the condensate outlet. It must be connected to a sewerage overflow. Prior to the
commissioning of the boiler, it is necessary to check whether the condensate is being drained. The size of a PVC
drain pipe is Ø 24 mm. The pH value of this condensate is > pH 3.
The boiler condensate outlet shall be implemented in such a way that ensures that it does not prevent fluent
discharging of the condensate.
The boiler is equipped with an odor trap (siphon) that needs to be filled with approx. 100 ml of water before starting
of the boiler. Discharging of the condensate to the sewerage is governed by the national or regional (local)
regulations. The drain pipe inclination shall be at least 5° from the boiler to the sewerage and it shall not be blocked
in any way (when the condensate drain pipe is blocked, the boiler furnace will resonate).

11 Flue Gas Ducting
According to the means of flue gas removal and combustion air inlet the boiler version is classified as C. this
means a close appliance that takes the combustion air from the outside space or from a joint shaft and from which
the flue gases are removed into the outside space or to a joint shaft. The shaft is represented by a structural part of
the building, e.g., a chimney, a duct, etc. The combustion area and the flue gas ducts of the appliance are
separated in a gas-tight way from the area in which the appliance is located.
In the standard version the boiler is supplied with an air flange. The boiler flue gas exhaust is not a part of the boiler
delivery. It is necessary to maintain a 3 % inclination to the boiler. The pressure loss for the flue gas exhaust shall
not exceed 150 Pa. The total pressure loss is the sum total of individual losses of the parts described in this
chapter.
The boiler shall only be installed together with wind protective equipment which meets the requirements of EN
1856-1 (See Annex N). For removal of flue gases through the roof it is necessary to use a concentric chimney
piece.
The boiler shall be installed together with the necessary accessories (pipeline for the combustion air supply and
flue gas exhaust).

The approved and recommended flue ducting versions for the VIADRUS K4 boiler made by ALMEVA are as
follows:
• Star D80mm

12 Commissioning
The entire installation shall comply with the regulations that are applicable for this equipment. The boiler shall be
compatible with the local connecting conditions (checking the parameters of the boiler with the information on the
name plate). The boiler can only be commissioned by organizations that are authorized and trained for this
purpose by the manufacturer. The minimum pressure in the heating system is 0,8 bar. It is necessary to open all
closing valves and make sure that no gas is leaking. Connect the boiler to the electric power mains. Check the gas
distribution line after the gas valve. Check the safety valve function. Then check the pump operation. During the
operation of the boiler it is necessary to check removal of the condensate from the boiler and also from the
chimney lining, if applicable.
During the first start of operation of the boiler it is necessary to train the user in accordance with this
manual and to hand over this manual to the user.
Then it is necessary to perform:
- inspection revision before commissioning,
- inspection for any water leakages,
- inspection of instrumentation and safety controls.

• Remove the bolts (1)

• Pulling the cover side detach the Velcro strip (2)

• Remove the front cover

12.1 Instructions before Putting into Operation
Expansion tank filling valve. Pressure in the expansion tank shall be set
according to the heating system designing documentation. Pressure in the
expansion tank shall be checked during the regular annual servicing
inspection.

Bleeding valve of exchanger


During bleeding, use for example a silicon hose of ø 6 and a small
container to protect boiler electronics from water leakage.
Loosen a screw at the valve. If the system is being breathed, air starts
coming out from the exchanger. At the moment when water starts coming
out, the exchanger is deaerated. So the screw might be retightenend.
Repeat this procedure several times until the system is completely
deaerated.

Automatic pump bleeder valve may remain permanently open.

The minimum water pressure in the heating system is 0.8 bar, max.
operating pressure is 2,5 bar. When filling and bleeding the system the
pressure in the heating system needs to be adjusted according to the
designing documentation.
