2.2 Brief description
The ROTEX GasSolarUnit (GSU) is a complete, pre-assembled gas condensing boiler with an integrated domestic hot water storage tank. This integration ensures that there are no external surface and cooling losses. All the heat is passed to the storage tank water, not to the surroundings. The excellent heat insulation properties of the plastic storage tank also ensure that heat losses are kept to a minimum. The very flat cylinder-shaped aluminium boiler body is inserted into the cover of the storage tank. The combustion chamber is arranged centrally. The flue gas is directed in a spiral around the burner chamber and then taken away upwards. The flue gas temperature now always remains below 80C.
Solar utilisation
The hot water storage tank of ROTEX GSU can also be used by solar energy. For the models GSU 520S(F)-e and GSU 530S(F)-e, the gas condensing boiler is specifically used to maintain the temperature only in the upper zone of the storage tank. With solar heating, depending on the available heat from the sun, the entire hot water storage tank can be heated up. The stored heat is now used for hot water generation as well as for the heating support. The high-level total storage tank capacity in the 500 l hot water storage tank, also allows bridging of the periods without sunshine. For the models GSU 320(F)-e and GSU 535(F)-e, the entire storage tank is designed as domestic hot water zone. It is possible to make thermal use of solar energy for hot water preparation. The solar component is optimised in combination with an upstream Solaris system (pre-heating stage).
Operating mode
The ROTEX GSU is designed such that it can be operated independently of the ambient air. The burner suctions the combustion air directly in through an installation shaft or a double-walled flue gas pipe. This operating mode has several advantages: The heating room does not need any ventilation opening into the open air and therefore does not cool down. Lower energy consumption. Additional energy recovery in the flue gas pipe through preheating the combustion air. Additional energy efficiency through the positioning and flow through of the heat exchangers. For all units, a distinct temperature stratification is formed. Contamination from the environment of the burner are not suctioned in. The heating room can thus be used as a workpspace, laundry room etc. at the same time. Possible to install as central roof unit and in garages. The potable water is heated up indirectly with the non-pressurized storage water of the domestic hot water storage tank in a corrosion resistant, stainless steel heat exchanger with corrugated pipes. This heat exchanger stores approx. 24 l (19 l for the GSU 320(F)-e) hot potable water on the temperature level of the domestic hot water zone. If a higher quantity of hot water is tapped, this water is heated by the geyser principle. The precipitating condensation is collected at the lowest point of the boiler body, led to the storage tank through a plastic tube and neutralised there. From there, it is led through the safety overflow connection.
Safety management
The entire safety management of the ROTEX GSU is entrusted to electronic control. This effects a safety switch-off in the event of water shortage, gas shortage or undefined operating states. A corresponding fault signal provides an engineer with all the necessary information for troubleshooting.
Electronic control
A fully electronic digital control combined with the "intelligent" automatic firing unit of the burner controls all heating and hot water functions fully automatically for the direct heating circuit, an optionally available mixed heating circuit as well as a storage tank charging circuit. The continuously modulating control adjusts the heating output flexibly to the changing requirements. All adjustments, displays and functions are carried out through the ROTEX control system THETA 23R+. The display and keyboard make it easy to use. To increase the comfort, a digital room station (ROTEX THETA RS+, (ROTEX THETA RFF, 15 40 70) are optionally available. 15 70 22) or a room temperature controller set
Condensing technology
The calorific value engineering makes optimum use of the energy contained in the heating gas. The flue gas is cooled down in the boiler and in an operating mode, independent from the ambient air to a temperature below the dew point. A part of the water vapour generated on combustion of the gas thus condenses. The condensation heat is fed to the heating, as against the low temperature boilers. This makes an efficiency of over 100% possible.

Set-up version 1
The ROTEX GSU is connected to the chimney or an installation shaft with the concentric LAS connection line SET H or SET K. The combustible air supply from the outside runs through the chimney or through an installation shaft. The flue gas discharge to the outside runs through the same shaft as the air supply. Minimum distance between flue gas exit and crest: 40 cm.
Set-up version 2
The ROTEX GSU is placed directly below the roof. Connection with SET L. The combustible air supply and flue gas discharge run through a concentric dual pipe. The combustible air supply from the outside runs through the outer ring-shaped gap of the dual tube and the flue gas discharge to the outside runs through the inner tube. Minimum distance between flue gas exit and roof surface: 40 cm. Minimum height of the flue gas duct: 2 m.
Installation version 3
The ROTEX GSU is not placed directly below the roof. The dual tube for the combustible air supply and flue gas pipe runs through the roof truss. The combustible air supply and the flue gas discharge run through a concentric dual pipe (as in Installation version 2). In the area of the roof truss, the dual pipe for the combustible air supply and the flue gas duct must be laid through a protective pipe with sufficient fire resistance or be structurally separated from the roof truss.
Set-up version 4
The ROTEX GSU is connected with the LAS connection line SET H or SET K to the exterior wall system SET G. The combustible air supply from the outside runs through the ring-shaped gap in the dual pipe, through the outer wall (suction from below). The flue gas discharge to the outside runs through a concentric pipe, through the outer wall and then up to at least 40 cm over the roof surface. In the external area, the outer air gap serves as heat insulation for the flue gas pipe. If the wall feedthrough has a height of less than one meter above the plot, ROTEX recommends sending the combustible air through a separate air supply pipe (mounting height: about 2 m).

Installation surface
Supporting ground is solid, flat and horizontal and adequately capable of carrying the weight (>1050 kg/m2). Install a pedestal if necessary. Observe the set-up dimensions (see section 3.1).
Installation room
There are no special conditions for ventilation of the installation room for operation independent of the ambient air (using a concentric air/flue system). In the event of limited room-air independent operation and in the event of room-air dependent operation, the installation room must have a ventilation opening of at least 150 cm2 to the outside. If the flue gas line goes via an installation shaft to the outside, it must be rear ventilated (see section 3.2.2). For partial ambient air-independent and for ambient air-dependent mode, the installation room must be free from aggressive vapours (e.g. hair spray, perchloroethylene, carbon tetrachloride), heavy dust formation and high atmospheric humidity (e.g. washhouse).

Place the nameplate of the flue gas pipe in the installation room. In some cases, the resonance in the flue system can amplify the noise at the mouth of the flue gas pipe. The noise level can be effectively reduced with the application of a silencer (E8 MSD, 15 45 78 or E11 MSD, 15 45 79). Air suction noises are generated in ambient air-dependent operations. The noise level can be effectively reduced with the application of a silencer (G ZLSD, 15 45 77).

3. Filling the heating system and the storage tank charging circuit
WARNING! Contamination of drinking water endangers the health. When filling the heating system, prevent the boiler water from flowing back into the drinking water line. Engage the hand lever on the 3-way switch valve (see fig. 3-11) in the centre position (only possible when de-energised/in the delivered condition). The centre position is on stable, when the 3-way switch valve has not power. The 3-way-switch valve unlocks automatically, when the voltage at the drive motor for the valve position AB-A is applied (storage tank charging). To ensure a complete ventilation, the 3-way switch valve must be unlocked earliest one hour after commissioning the plant. Connect the filling hose with return prevention device (") to the filling and draining fittings (KFE cock, fig. 2-1, pos. 35) and secure against sliding by using a hose clamp. Open water cock on the supply line. Open the KFE cock and observe the pressure gauge (fig. 2-1, pos. 31). Fill the system with water until the marking of the system overpressure is roughly in the centre of the green range of the pressure gauge display. Shut off the KFE cock. Vent the entire heating network (open the system control valves). Check the water pressure on the pressure gauge again and top up with water if necessary. Close the KFE cock, remove the filling hose with return prevention device from the filling and draining fittings.

WARNING! A ROTEX GSU that is installed or started incorrectly may not operate properly and is dangerous for the health and safety of individuals. Only heating engineers, authorised and trained by gas and energy supply companies are allowed to start up the ROTEX GSU. CAUTION! A ROTEX GSU not put into operation properly can lead to damage to property and the environment. Observe the regulations in VDI 2035 in order to avoid corrosion and deposits. Measures for desalination, softening or hardness stabilization are necessary, if the filling and top-up water has a high total hardness (>3 mmol/l - sum of the calcium and magnesium concentrations, calculated as calcium carbonate). We recommend Fernox scale and corrosion protection agent KSK ( 15 60 50). During the plant operation, the water pressure at the manometer (green area) must be checked at regular intervals. If necessary, readjust by topping up. Incorrect start-up makes the manufacturer's guarantee for the unit void. If you have questions, please contact our Technical Customer Service.

Controlling the burner output
The control system determines continually the necessary flow temperature (according to the set operating parameters) and transmits the temperature to the gas burner combustion controller ESYS. The combustion controller calculates the required burner output from the target value and the values from the flow and the return flow temperature sensor. The determined output is passed to the burner fan as a PWM signal. The burner fan immediately adjusts the gas fan speed and as such the combustion air flow. The gas controller controls the gas volume accordingly.

DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Escaping gas is a direct threat to human health and safety. Even a few sparks can cause major explosions. Before working on gas carrying parts, always close the main gas stop valve of the system. If you can smell gas, air the room thoroughly. Do not fan any open fire or operate any electrical switches. Only heating specialists authorised and trained by the gas or power supply company should be allowed to work on gas-conducting parts. The ROTEX GSU gas burners can be equipped with various blowers ex factory, which are operated with various speed settings. For the device types GSU 530S(F)-e and GSU 535S(F)-e it may also be necessary, to exchange the flame tube insert to adjust the desired burner output. This flame tube insert (FRE, E 15 00 600) Type B, if required, must be ordered separately. The respective modification instruction is enclosed in the scope of delivery for the flame tube insert.

7.2
Storage tank
Design
All plastic, double shell design (corrosion-free). Space between internal and external tanks foamed up with high heat insulation (low surface losses). External wall 3-4 mm thick (impact-resistant and shockproof).
Method of operation
The pressure-less storage water serves as water storage medium. Useful heat is supplied and led out by completely submerged, helically intertwined stainless steel corrugated tubes (1.4404). The hot water zone in the storage tank container acts as combination of heat accumulator and flow heater (see fig. 2-2 and fig. 2-3). The cold water flowing back after hot water removal is first guided to the bottom of the storage tank container and cools the storage area maximum. The hot water zone is heated up, if necessary, with the gas condensing boiler. Water flows through the heat exchanger for storage charging (SL-WT) from top to bottom. This improves efficiency and the yield of the solar heating system. On its way to the top, the domestic water continuously absorbs the heat of the storage tank water. The flow direction, operating on the principle of counter-flow, and the coil-shaped heat exchanger create a pronounced temperature layering in the hot water storage tank. As high temperatures can be maintained for a very long time in the upper section of the storage tank, a high hot water output is achieved even if water is drawn off over a long period of time. For the models GSU 520S(F)-e and GSU 530S(F)-e the SL-WT ends approx. 40 cm above the container floor. Only the hot water zone above it is heated by the boiler. The tank volume below it is heated only on using the solar energy. For the models GSU 320(F)-e and GSU 535(F)-e the SL-WT is pulled down all the way to the container floor. The total storage volume is heated by the boiler (higher standby hot water capacity).
Water hygiene
The separation of pressure-less storage water and hot water flowing into the corrugated pipe heat exchanger secures the optimum water hygiene of the ROTEX GSU: There are no zones with a low flow rate or zones that are not heated on the hot water side. It is impossible for sludge, rust or other sediments to be deposited, as can be the case with other large volume tanks. The water fed into the system first is also discharged first (first in, first out principle).
52
7 x Hydraulic connection
Storage water heating
For the initial start-up, the storage tank will be filled once with unpressurized storage water, which will later on not be exchanged anymore. The storage water can be heated in two different ways: through the integrated gas condensing boiler, by a ROTEX solar installation additionally connected directly to the zero pressure area, through another heat source directly connected to the pressure-less area (e.g. hot water heat pump).
Maintenance
Thermal and pressure expansion and the high flow rates in the heat exchangers cause limescale residue to peel away; this residue is rinsed out and is not deposited. On the storage water side, dissolved lime can result only once in the filled water. Thanks to the smooth surface of the stainless steel corrugated pipe heat exchanger, no limescale crust forms (no reduction in heat transfer performance over time). Corrosion protection devices (e.g. reactive anodes) are not needed. This means that associated maintenance work, e.g. changing the protective anodes or cleaning the storage tank, does not need to be carried out. At the annual boiler inspection, only the water level is checked and topped up if necessary (see chapter 8.2.2).

Regular inspection and maintenance of the heating system reduces energy consumption and ensures a long life and smooth operation. Have the inspection and maintenance carried out by authorised and trained heating engineers once a year and, if possible, before the heating period. This will avoid malfunctions during the heating period. ROTEX recommends an inspection and maintenance contract to ensure regular inspection and maintenance.

The condensation is light acid. It is conducted into the pressureless area of the storage tank. This ensures that the storage container is always completely filled up during the normal system operation. A long-term neutralisation filling in the container ensures that the fluid leaving the container has neutral pH. Any depositions remain in the pressureless area of the container.

The electronics of the GasSolarUnit detects faults and indicates them: with an error code in the display, if the ROTEX THETA 23R+ boiler control system detects an error, with the general malfunction lamp in the boiler control panel and an error code in the display, if the combustion controller ESYS detects an error that leads to a locking malfunction. Detailed information for the control system and the boiler control panel as well as for the operating modes and parameter settings can be found in the "ROTEX Control system" documentation. This documentation is included in the scope of delivery.
Solving failures
Detecting and remedying the cause of the malfunction. Interlocking fault: Release the lock by briefly pressing the hand button on the boiler control panel (max. 5x per hour). Non-interlocking failures are indicated as long as failure conditions are present. Once the cause has been eliminated, the unit continues to work normally.

Replace the burner blower. Check the connector in the control panel and at the combustion controller and connect them correctly. Replace the cables. Adjust the ionisation electrode. Clean up oxidized electrode areas on the ionisation electrode (with fine sanding paper). Replace worn ionisation electrodes. Inspect the gas connections. Vent the gas line. Inspect the plug connection between the gas valve and the combustion controller, connect correctly if necessary. Re-align the connecting pins of the plug connection. Check gas valve (vacuum at outlet pressure measuring socket during pre-ventilation, zero pressure during the ignition) Replace the gas valve. Replace the combustion controller. See "No ignition" failure Re-adjust the burner setting. Reduce the max. output. Replace the burner blower. Adjust the output parameter. Check the lines for contaminations. If necessary, install lines with a larger line cross-section for supply air or flue gas.

Emergency operation
Note the following for emergency operation if the valve drive is faulty: Press the unlocking button (fig. 3-11, pos. 5.2) and rotate the motor head of the valve drive (fig. 3-11, pos. 5.1) 1/4 turn to the left and remove. The 3-way switch valve is set to the "Heating" position. Note the following for the temporary manual parallel operation of the heating circuit and the hot water storage tank: Pull the 6-pin plug out of the valve drive. Bring switch valve to centre position with hand lever (fig. 3-11, pos. 5.3) (only possible if the valve drive is found in the "Heating" position before). In the event of faults or incorrect settings in the electronic controller, emergency heating operation can be maintained. Press the hand button on the control for approx. 5 seconds. "Manual operation" appears on the display. Adjust the desired temperature with the rotary switch (setting range 5 - 78C). In manual operation, the 3-way switch valve is in the "Storage tank charging" position first. When the adjusted storage tank target temperature has been reached, the 3-way switch valve will be set to the "heating" position.

CAUTION! A heating system which is shut down can freeze in the event of frost and may suffer damage. Drain the heating system that is shut down if there is danger of frost. If the heating system is not drained, the gas and power supplies must be secured and the main switch must remain switched on. If no heat and no hot water supply is needed for a long time, the ROTEX GSU can be shut up temporarily. However, ROTEX recommends, to set the system into stand-by operation (see documentation "ROTEX-control") and to logoff the heating and domestic hot water supply. The heating system is then protected from frost. The pumps and valve protection functions are active. If there is a danger of frost, and the gas and power supply cannot be guaranteed, then the GSU must be emptied, suitable antifreeze measures must be adopted for the connected heating system and hot water storage tank (e.g. draining). If there is danger of frost in case of unsafe gas and power supply only for a few days, due to the excellent heat insulation, the emptying of the ROTEX GSU can be dispensed with if the storage temperature is observed regularly and does not drop below +3C. However, there is no frost protection for the connected heat distribution system through this.
