Set Appliance State:
| Isolate Mains Power to appliance as per TOPs P4 |
CH Demand
Ensure radiators are open and water can circulate around the system
Attach temperature clamp to the CH flow pipe approximately 30cm away from the boiler
CH temperature set to MAX
Attach temperature clamp to the CH flow pipe approximately 30cm away from the boiler
CH temperature set to MAX
| WARNING! - Mains voltage is expected during test follow TOPs P4 live testing procedure |
Observation:
Allow the burner to fire and boiler to run for at least 30 seconds.
Using a temperature probe measure the temperature of the internal bypass pipe and compare it with the temperature of the CH flow pipe.
Is the internal bypass pipe cooler than the flow pipe?
Or is the internal bypass pipe the same temperature or greater than the flow pipe, signifying the auto bypass valve has opened.
