Page 5: Avoid Danger
ROTEX oil condensing boilers are state-of-the-art and are built to meet all recognised technical requirements. However, improper use can lead to serious injuries or death, as well as causing material damage. To avoid danger, install and operate ROTEX oil condensing boilers only: –... -
Page 6: Instructions For Operating Safety
• Operate the oil condensing boiler only if sufficient combustible air supply is guaranteed. If operating the oil condensing boiler independently of the ambient air with an air/flue system (LAS) with dimensions according to ROTEX-Standard, this is automatically guaranteed and there will be no further conditions required of the unit installation room. -

Page 11: Hot Water Storage Tank
Hot water storage tank There are 5 types of hot water storage tank available for the oil condensing boiler A1 BO. The ROTEX Solaris System for hot water preparation can also be incorporated. For further information on hot water storage tanks, please consult the documentation for Sanicube INOX, Sanicube PEX and Solaris. -
Page 12: Start-Up
The oil condensing boiler will not function without a central control unit. The control unit must be ordered separately in the desired model (operation allowed only with ROTEX controls). Status at the time of delivery The following outputs are factory-set:... - Page 13 If the oil condensing boiler is connected to a heating system with steel pipelines, radiators or non-diffusion-proof floor heating pipes, slurry and chips could enter the boiler and cause blockages, overheating or corrosion. For this reason ROTEX recommends fitting a dirt filter in the heating return flow.

Controls on the boiler control panel Operation The ROTEX oil condensing boiler A1 BO can be operated with the THETA 23R controller or with the ALPHA 23R controller. The electronic digital controls are to be used for controlling 2 heating circuits (direct heating circuit, mixer circuit) and a storage tank charging circuit. - Page 16 Select one of the 3 pre-installed timer programmes P1, P2 or P3. You can find further instructions and a more exact description in the documentation for "ROTEX controller THETA 23R". It is included in the scope of supply of the particular electronic control to be ordered separately.

Page 21: Information On Operating Noises
If no heating and no hot water supply is needed over a long period, the oil condensing boiler can be temporarily shut down. ROTEX, however, recommends putting the system on Standby mode (see Documentation "ROTEX Control"). The heating system is then protected from frost. -
Page 22: Re-Commissioning
• Bleed all the water in the entire system at the filling and draining sockets (KFE cock). Re-commissioning If the ROTEX Oil condensing boiler A1 BO has been out of service for an extended period, certain preparatory tasks and tests need to be carried out for re-commissioning. -
Page 23: Check List For Re-Commissioning
In case of systems with a hot water storage tank: Does the temperature of the radiators increase slowly after charging the storage tank has finished? Are all the heating pipes free from leaks? Only if all questions can be answered by "yes" may the system be started up again. BA ROTEX A1 BO - 10/2007... -
Page 24: Final Shutdown And Disposal
Recommendations for disposal The ROTEX oil condensing boilers are designed to be environmentally friendly. During the disposal process, the only waste accrued is that which can be used for material or thermal recycling. The materials used can be separated into different types. -
