Working inlet pressure
More infoHide infoMeasured at the test nipple on the gas stopcock, with the boiler at full load in check programme P.01 and one or more hot taps fully open. Technical data gives a G20 gas supply pressure of 2.0 kPa (20.0 mbar).
Appliance inlet
1.3 to 2.3 kPa (13.0 to 23.0 mbar)
Gas rate at maximum
More infoHide infoMeasured at the gas meter with the front casing on, check programme P.01, after at least 5 minutes, all other gas appliances off. The MI table lists nominal, +5% and −10% figures by Qnw from the data plate; the lines here are the Qnw rows matching each model’s maximum DHW heat input in the technical data (25.7, 30.6 and 35.7 kW). Technical data also gives gas flow at Pmax: DHW 2.7, 3.2 and 3.8 m³/h; heating 1.9, 2.7 and 2.7 m³/h (25c, 30c, 35c).
25c
2.72 m³/h (+5%: 2.86, −10%: 2.45)
30c
3.24 m³/h (+5%: 3.40, −10%: 2.92)
35c
3.78 m³/h (+5%: 3.97, −10%: 3.40)
