Ferroli Divacondens D Plus Boiler The Simplest Solution For A Condensing Boiler
DIVACONDENS D PLUS is the condensing heat generator for traditional heating systems. The tried and tested Ferroli technology in the field of traditional wall mounted boilers has been enriched by increasing the performance of the product in the simplest way, with the use of a robust recuperator which preheats the primary circuit using the residual heat of the exhaust fumes and a new cooled burner with low NOx emissions.
The Range
Divacondens D Plus is offered in a single model for heating and instantaneous production of domestic hot water
Characteristics

> Instant production of domestic hot water with dedicated plate exchanger
> Post-recovery of the latent heat of condensation, in function of pre-heating of the primary circuit
> Forced draught sealed chamber boiler, with water-cooled atmospheric burner with low NOx emissions
> Standard automatic hydraulic by-pass
> Minimum polluting emissions (class 6 according to EN 15502-1)

> Can be combined with the modulating remote timer control
> Simple and complete control panel, display user interface, with setting keys
> Robust post-condenser fed by the closed circuit of the primary. The heat exchange with the fumes takes place inside large diameter water passages.
> Generator with simple and rational operation
> ECO function in DHW for greater savings in the period of low use of hot water
> Predisposition for solar systems: prearranged for the production of domestic hot water combined with solar panel systems
> Place of installation: also for outdoors in a partially protected place down to -5°C as standard
> Certified operation also with propane air (50% air - 50% G31) by means of a specific transformation to be requested from the Authorized Assistance Center
> Also works on LPG with the use of a special conversion kit to be requested from the Authorized Assistance Centre
Boiler control
The DIVACONDENS D PLUS control unit consists of an easy-to-use interface with a backlit display. Using the buttons, it is possible to easily adjust the heating flow temperature, the domestic hot water setpoint, switch the generator on/off or activate the comfort function, monitoring the status of the boiler. The control panel is completed by a traditional pressure gauge which can check the system pressure at any time.
The performances
Energy classification DHW load profile (maximum flow rate at the corresponding efficiency declared in DHW) Efficiency in the production of domestic hot water FOR COMBINED BOILERS The "climate-energy 20/20/20" package sets ambitious targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, of energy consumption as well as the increase in the use of renewable energies, corresponding to a percentage of 20% to be reached by 2020. In this context, the European regulation ErP (Energy Related Products) introduces an energy classification also for water generators hot water for space heating and domestic hot water purposes. This classification translates into an energy label which must necessarily accompany all the products affected by the Regulation, introduced on the market from 26 September 2015. The labeling constitutes an easy guide for the consumer, who can choose - through standardized and objective indications - the product more efficient. In this way, the choice will be the most sparing in terms of consumption for the benefit of the user, but also the most virtuous for energy balances and consequently, for the environment. The most significant parameters indicated on the label are the seasonal efficiency index in heating and efficiency in the eventual production of domestic hot water, according to a scale which, in the case of the single boiler product, ranges from A to G*. Furthermore, for combined boilers, a load profile is indicated corresponding to the DHW flow rate of the appliance measured in a series of typical samplings, guaranteeing at least the declared DHW efficiency. This index is identified with a letter/”size” (S, M …XXL).
Solar circuit integration
DIVACONDENS D PLUS boasts electronics that simplify integration with thermal solar systems, both with natural and forced circulation. The microprocessor controls the temperature of the water coming from the solar circuit through the domestic hot water sensor and turns on the burner only if necessary. To reach the desired temperature, SUN EASY allows considerable savings even during the coldest seasons, exploiting and integrating even the smallest solar contribution, otherwise lost. In case of insufficient irradiation and therefore a modest pre-heating of the domestic water, the boiler will contribute with the heat necessary to reach the required set point temperature. If the sun and the solar system fulfill their "duty" no integration by the boiler will be necessary, the hot water will be conveyed to the tap, without the need for additional devices, with the mixing of the thermostatic valves.
Safety and comfort
ANTIFREEZE In the event that the temperature in the boiler drops to 5°C, the burner ignites automatically and the circulator is activated in order to protect the appliance from damage caused by frost. This function is active with the boiler powered by the gas circuit and under electrical voltage.
POST-CIRCULATION This function makes it possible to recover all the heat supplied by thermal inertia of the exchanger and transfer it to the heating system, and consequently to the rooms to be heated. This is a timer function (customizable duration) and is active after the burner goes out in heating mode.
SLIDING TEMPERATURE OPERATION With the installation of the “external probe” kit it is possible to operate the boiler in sliding temperature. This means that without using the system temperature adjustment keys, the boiler will self-regulate according to the variations in external temperatures. All this translates into energy savings while ensuring maximum comfort for the user.
EASY CONTROL The electronic board of DIVACONDENS D PLUS adopts the Opentherm protocol. It allows the integration of other peripheral control units such as, for example, the ROMEO remote timer control. In fact, the Opentherm standard has been specially designed to share the logic and operating algorithms of the boiler with other additional control units. As a digital protocol, it allows total integration between the boiler and the satellite, with full control of the functions from the boiler and similarly from its satellite.
