INTRODUCTION:
The “CT” series of counter-top water boilers were launched
in March 2006 to supersede the award winning Hundred/Thousand series
which was manufactured between 1996 and February 2006. The new “CT” series have taken the proven reliability and robust construction
of their predecessors and applied the latest advancements in electrical
design and technology to produce a catering boiler which is the
most advanced of its kind and yet easy to use and built to last.
The “CT”
series are inspected and tested in accordance with the company’s
ISO9001 Quality Management System and ISO14001 Environmental Management
System and conform with the protection requirements of the following
standards and specifications:
EMC W89/336/EEC Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
EN 50-081-2 Generic Emission
EN 50-082-2 Generic Immunity
ROHS
Manufactured in compliance with the requirements of the RoHS Directive
WRAS
Manufactured in compliance with the requirements of the UK Water
Regulations/Bylaws
All models in this range are similar in construction, but vary in
size.
PRINCIPLE
OF OPERATION:
When
switched on, the machine first checks for water at the low-level
(bottom) probe. If no water is sensed at the probe, the solenoid
is energised. If no water is detected after approximately 5 minutes
the solenoid switches off and the LCD display reads “check
water supply”. When water is detected at the bottom probe,
the heating element(s) is switched on to heat the water to the correct
temperature. When the set temperature is reached, the solenoid is
pulsed on and off to allow water into the boiler. The amount allowed
into the boiler is controlled to maintain the temperature. The heating
element stays on during the filling cycle until the normal-operating
probe and specified temperature is reached.
When the boiler has reached the normal-operating probe and the correct
temperature, it goes into ‘idle’ mode. The heating element
is pulsed periodically to maintain temperature.

2.0 THE TANK:
The tank
lid is secured using M4 stainless steel screws. The lid is sealed
with an EPDM rubber gasket. Silicone sealant secures the gasket
to the tank, and the lid is sealed with silicone grease. The tank
body and lid are made from type-304 stainless steel while the internal
baffle plates are made from type-316 stainless steel (type-316 is
more resistant to the corrosive properties and minerals found in
some mains water supplies in specific parts of the UK.
3.0 THE LCD DISPLAY (Digital Program Menu):
The LCD
display informs the user of the boiler’s status (e.g. filling,
heating, ready etc.). The display also informs the user of potential
fault conditions (e.g. no water supply, clean probes, etc.).
The LCD display in conjunction with the On/Off button also gives
access to the program menu which allows various settings to be selected.
To access the program menu:
•
Switch the boiler off and back on again - within a few seconds of
the boiler being switched on again, press and hold the On/Off button
in for approximately 10 seconds, until the display reads “program
mode”.
• Continue to press the On/Off button to proceed through the
15 menu selections until the desired mode is reached.
• To select the mode, hold button in for 3 seconds.
• Program Menu is as follows:
1. TEMP
SET (adjustable: 80-99^Celcius [default: 98^C])
2. SET TIME (use with AQ1 scale-monitor only)
3. EXIT (Exit program mode)
4. USE FILTER (enable-disable)
5. FILTER SIZE (select cartridge size: 3000-25,000 litres)
6. POWER MODE (last-used, always-off, always on)
7. ECO MODE (enable-disable)
8. ELEMENT(S) (select KW rating of boiler: 1.5KW - 18KW)
9. SHOW CLOCK (enable-disable)
10.BRIGHTNESS (Brightness High, Brightness Low)
11.SUPPLY IN (takes a reading of mains supply voltage)
12.TEST MODE (shows which sensors are registering water)
13.ADC VALUES (manufacturers test values)
14.DEFAULTS (returns boiler to factory-set defaults)
15.EXIT (Exit program mode)
PLEASE
NOTE: All new XE870 circuit boards are supplied with default settings
suitable for 3KW models (CT200, CT2000 & CT4000-3).
If a
new PCB is fitted to a CT4000-6, CT6000-6 or a CT6000-9, then the “PROGRAM ELEMENTS” mode will need to be accessed and
the setting adjusted to the appropriate KW rating (6KW for CT4000-6
& CT6000-6 & 9KW for CT6000-9).
4.0
THE SENSING PROBES:
Sensing
probes are used to detect the presence of water within the tank
(5-13 second response time), using a small electrical current to
make a circuit via the water.
They
are made-up from a PTFE insulator with a chrome-plated brass rod
through the centre.
There
are five level sensing probes inside the tank (from bottom to top):
1. Low-level
Sensor - Yellow wire (CLEAN PROBES-1)
2. Eco Sensor - Grey wire (CLEAN PROBES-1)
3. Normal Operating Sensor - Brown wire (CLEAN PROBES-2)
4. De-scale warning Sensor - Orange wire (CLEAN PROBES-2)
5. Overfill detection Sensor - Red wire (CLEAN PROBES-2)
NOTE:
Only the low-level and Normal Operating sensors are used in normal
operation.
Common
problem: Hard-water in some parts of the UK causes a build-up of
lime-scale on the sensing probes, which acts as an insulator (e.g.
the sensor is no-longer able to detect the presence of water). When
a sensor becomes insulated, the water level will switch to a different
sensor and the CLEAN PROBES message will display. This will be followed
by a number 1 or 2 (dependant on which sensor is scaled-up – see above).
5.0 THE THERMISTOR (thermal resistor):
The thermistor
is an electronic device used in place of a thermostat, to measure
the temperature of water. It is constructed using a thermally sensitive
resistor which exhibits changes in electrical resistance with even
a slight change in water temperature, making it extremely accurate
(+/- 1.2 degrees Celsius).
On the “CT” series, the thermistor is stuck to the outside
of the tank-front using metal-set putty.
POSITION:
- IMPORTANT: POSITION OF THERMISTOR ON THE TANK IS BETWEEN THE HEATING
ELEMENT AND LOW-LEVEL SENSOR – ON RIGHT-HAND SIDE OF THE TANK.
Removal/replacement
of thermistor: - To remove the old thermistor, chip it off using
the tip of a screwdriver.
To ensure
that the new thermistor is correctly fitted to the tank, the metal-set
compound must be thoroughly mixed. To do this, fold the compound
between your fingers for at least one minute. Place the thermistor
into the mixed compound and apply the compound onto the cold tank,*
ensuring that the head of the thermistor is completely covered.
The metal-set should completely harden in approximately 5 minutes.
* It
is strongly advised that the tank should be cool before application
of Metal-Set
6.0
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT:
The water
temperature on the “CT” series boilers can be digitally
adjusted between a range of 80 and 99^Celsius in 1^C increments.To
adjust temperature, access the programme menu via the LCD display
(see Section-2). The factory-default temperature setting is 98^Celsius.
NOTE:
For most end-users serving hot drinks, the optimum temperature setting
will be 97-98^Celcius.
7.0 HEATING ELEMENT(S):
The heating
elements are made from Incoloy800 material, which gives them a long
life expectancy. They are sealed into the tank by two blue silicone
rubber washers and secured by two 1/4”BSP brass lock-nuts.
ELEMENT
RATING: 3KW, 230V
RESISTENCE:
Between 19 and 20 OhmsAMPS: The elements will draw between 10 and
11 amps.
If the
element has blown it will have an open circuit. To test this use
a simple PAT test.Boil-dry Protection:
Each
element has a brazed “hot-return” fitting, which accepts
a stud-mount, 120^C thermal cut-out switch. Thelive input to the
element is directed through the thermal cut-out switch. If the element
overheats (boil-dry situation etc,), the thermal switch picks up
the rise in temperature and breaks the live supply to the heater.
If this happens, the thermal switch will need to be reset by pushing
in the small button on the top of the
switch-body.
8.0 THE TRIAC:
The triac
is a device used to switch the heating element on via a control
signal from the P.C.B. The triac generates heat, which has to be
dissipated. This is done by bolting it to the aluminium wiring tray
using heat-sink compound between the surface of the triac and the
aluminium tray.
There
are 2 types of triac used on the “CT” series:
XE851
- all 3kw models and
XE854 - all 6kw models
The CT6000-9(9kw)
model uses 3 x XE851’s, one for each element.
If the
triac fails, in 90% of cases it will fail in the closed position.
This causes the heating element(s) to remain on. If this happens,
the machine will overheat. When steam enters the air-vent pipe,
the over-boil safety cut-out will detect a rise in temperature and
switch off power to the elements.
If the
triac has failed in the closed position there will be continuity
between the live element terminal (PCB) and live into the triac
(GREY wire).
To test
if the triac has failed (closed circuit), re-set thermal cut-out
(if necessary), leave machine plugged in and turn off at the ON/OFF
switch (front panel). If the machine continues to heat when switched
off, the triac is faulty. If not, refer to faultfinding “over-boiling”.
9.0 PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS:
MAIN
P.C.B. (XE870) – ALL “CT” MODELS:
Operating
Voltage: 190V – 265V AC @ 50Hz
Frequency Range: 47-65 Hz
Fuse Rating: 315mA 250V AC
Operating temp: 0–70^C
Located
on the aluminium wiring tray, beneath the tank. This P.C.B. controls
the main functions of the machine, monitoring the water level, water
temperature, water supply etc.
There
are four board-mounted LED’s on the XE870 main PCB as follows:
Continuous
Flashing Amber = Processor is working OK
Green = Mains Supply to PCB
Red = Heating element is on
Amber = Boiler filling with water
The P.C.B.
can be configured for use on either: 3, 6 or 9kw boilers. When supplied
from new, the software default is for 3KW models. To adjust and
configure for use on a 6KW or 9KW boiler, the “PROGRAM ELEMENTS”
mode will need to be accessed and the setting adjusted to the appropriate
KW rating (6KW for CT4000-6 & CT6000-6 & 9KW for CT6000-9)
as described in SECTION-2 “LCD Display”.
This
configuration of the P.C.B. to match the KW rating of the boiler
determines how much water the software tells the inlet valve to
put into the machine in one pulse.
Fault
Diagnostics:
If a
fault is detected, the user is warned via the LCD display. There
are two categories of warnings:
1 - Simple
Warnings:
CHECK WATER
NO WATER
CLEAN PROBES-1
CLEAN PROBES-2
Any of
the above messages may be seen – the display will alternate
between the boiler status (e.g. BOILER READY) and the warning message.
An amber “exclamation mark” may also illuminate in the
display. These warnings are not critical and should be dealt with
when it is convenient to do so. To clear the message, switch the
machine off at the mains supply and switch back on again.
2 - Critical
Warnings:
In the
event of a serious malfunction, the red spanner in the display will
illuminate together with the message “Call Supplier”,
alternating with one of the following messages.
THERMISTOR-O/C
HEAT/THERM FAIL
OVERFILL,
See chart
on Page: 13/14 for details of the warnings and the possible causes.
LCD Display
P.C.B. (XE871) – All “CT” models:
Operating
Voltage: 8-17v DC @ 0.2 Amps max
Display: 16 characters x 2 lines
Inputs: On/Off button, Eco-mode button
The XE871
is purely a display system. The boiler will continue to function
if it is faulty, removed or damaged. The integrity of the system
is reliant on the Main XE870 P.C.B. in terms of failure and safety.
See Section-2 “LCD Display” for details on how to access the program
mode and make adjustment to settings.
3-Phase
P.C.B. (XE855) - CT6000-9 only:
There
is an extra P.C.B. on the CT6000-9 boiler. It is located on the
side of the aluminium wiring tray, to the left of the main P.C.B.
This is the XE855 3-Phase P.C.B. which distributes the power to
the heating elements. All 9kw boilers are 3-phase, Neutral and Earth
as standard.
9KW Contactor:
CT6000-9
boilers also have a 9KW contactor (located at the back of the aluminium
wiring tray) through which the incoming mains supply is routed.
Its function is to operate as part of the over-boil safety protection
system on the 9KW boilers.
A 90^C
thermal cut-out switch, located on the air-vent pipe, is wired through
the contactor. In the event of the boiler overheating, the thermal
cut-out breaks the supply at the contactor thus cutting the power
supply to the boiler.
10.0 - THERMAL CUT-OUTS:
Over-Boil
Protection – (Air-vent)
All machines
have a thermal cut-out switch situated on the air vent. Its function
is to protect in the event of an over-boil situation arising - the
thermal switch will cut power to the heaters. After about 1-hour,
the LCD display will show the message “HEAT/THERM FAIL”.
(Note: Before 1-hour, the display does not indicate any fault –
a normal message e.g. “Boiler Ready” is displayed).
If the over-boil cut-out has activated, switch the boiler off at
the wall and back on again in 10 minutes once the boiler has cooled.
The thermal switch will reset itself and work as normal.
NOTE:
ON 9KW MODELS ONLY (CT6000-9): the over-boil cut-out must be manually
reset following operation - remove front panel and re-set small
button on switch-body.
Boil-Dry
protection - (Element[s])
All heating
elements have individual thermal cut-out switches fitted to them.
If the element overheats (boil-dry situation etc,), the thermal
switch picks up the rise in temperature and breaks the live supply
to the heater. After about 1hour, the LCD display will show the
message “HEAT/THERM FAIL”. If this happens, the thermal
switch will need to be reset by pushing in the small button on the
top of the switch-body.
11.0
THE SOLENOID VALVE:
The cold
water inlet valve can operate between 2 bar and 7 bar (28-100psi)
mains pressure. The only serviceable part on the valve is the coil.
The coil is susceptible to water damage from steam or water leaks.
This can lead to P.C.B. problems, e.g. a blown 315mA fuse or electronic
components.
Disconnect
boiler from electrical supply before replacing the solenoid valve.
NOTE:
Always check 315mA fuse ON P.C.B. when replacing solenoid coil.
Mains
Water Pressure:
MAINS
WATER PRESSURE RANGE: Between 2.0 and 7.0 bar (28 and 96psi)
Incoming mains water pressure can vary wildly from site to site
and can also fluctuate dependent on the time of day (water pressure
often increases at night). In extreme cases, this can take the mains
water pressure outside that at which the boiler can operate. In-coming
mains water pressure of more than 100psi (7.0bar) can bypass the
solenoid valve and cause an overflow situation. In such circumstances,
a pressure reduction valve should be fitted to the pipework (before
the machine), to bring it to a level that the machine can cope with.
Similarly
very low mains water pressure (below 20psi) can also result in the
solenoid valve being bypassed - insufficient water pressure prevents
the valve from seating correctly, although this is much less common.
12.0 - WATER DRAW-OFF TAP:
The tap
washer and/or spring will occasionally require replacement.
To replace
the tap washer: (Part No. TP1001/L)
? Switch
machine off.
? Drain off water.
? Unscrew bonnet and remove the upper tap assembly out of the tap
body.
? Remove the old washer from the tap spindle and firmly push the
new washer onto the spindle.
? Screw the upper assembly back onto the body.
To replace
the tap spring. (Part No. TP1007/L)
? Switch
machine off.
? Drain off water.
? Push the pin out of the tap handle.(the pin has a bend in the
middle)
? Unscrew the plastic bonnet to replace broken spring.(Small diameter
down)? Replace bonnet and handle.
13.0 - DE-SCALING (Including cleaning probes):
Common
problem: Hard-water in some parts of the UK will usually result
in a build-up of lime-scale within the tank. This can lead to a
variety of different problems:
(i) One
of the more common problems is caused by scale deposits coating
one (or more) of the five sensing probes - The scale acts as an
insulator (e.g. the sensor is no-longer able to detect the presence
of water).
(ii)
Heavy scale deposits on the inside of the tank can also affect the
accuracy of the temperature sensing device (thermistor), which is
fixed to the outside of the tank with metal-set putty – The
scale acts an insulator between the water and the stainless steel
tank-body, thus reducing the responsiveness of the thermistor,which
can eventually lead to an over-boil situation arising.
(iii)
A heavy build-up of scale on the heating element(s) can also reduce
their life expectancy.
De-scaling
Instructions:
? Disconnect
the machine from the power supply.
? Remove the lid
? Remove tank lid and internal baffle plates.
? Remove as much loose scale as possible by hand.
? Remove any hard scale coating the level sensing probes and insulators,
using a non-metallic scouring pad.
? Use a good de-scaler such as “Renegite” (Part No.
ACC303) to remove hard scale deposits. Mix 2-3 packets in hot water
and pour into tank. Leave for approximately 20 minutes.
? Flush tank out with copious water, ensuring that all traces of
de-scaler are removed before re-assembly.

- SERVICE WARNING MESSAGES:
SIMPLE
WARNINGS:
MESSAGE
MEANING AND POSSIBLE CAUSES:
CHECK WATER The boiler has not sensed any drop in temperature after
opening the cold-water valve a number of times.
Most
common cause: An interruption of the water supply. Check the stop
valve and make sure there are no kinks in the hose or debris in
the water inlet valve.
The message can also indicate that the incoming water pressure is
low.
Switch boiler off at the mains and back on again to clear message
and reset.
NO WATER Six minutes after the boiler was switched on, the circuit
has not sensed water on the low-level probe. Check that there is
a water supply to the boiler and make sure that there are no kinks
in the hose and no debris in the water inlet valve.
PLEASE NOTE that in hard water areas this message can be caused
by lime-scale (see message CLEAN PROBES below). Once you have rectified
the water supply or cleaned the low-level probe, the boiler must
be switched off at the mains and back on again to reset.
CLEAN PROBES
(+1 or +2) The boiler is fitted with five level sensing probes.
These sensors use a small electric current and a circuit is made
by the water. In some areas hard water acts as an insulator. When
a sensor becomes insulated by lime-scale, it is no-longer able to
detect the presence of water. The water level in the tank then rises
to a different sensor and the CLEAN PROBES message will display.
This will be followed by a number 1 or 2.
CLEAN PROBES-1 indicates that the low-level sensor and possibly
the ECO sensor are coated in scale.
CLEAN PROBES-2 indicates that one of the top three sensors is coated
in scale.
CRITICAL
MESSAGES:
MESSAGE
MEANING AND POSSIBLE CAUSES:
THERMISTOR O/C
The
temperature sensor has been disconnected or is faulty.
HEAT/THERM FAIL This means that either the “over-boil”
or “boil-dry” thermal safety cut-out switch has activated
or the element has failed. Switch the boiler off at the mains and
back on again in 10 minutes. If the “over-boil” cut-out
has operated, the boiler will automatically reset itself and work
as normal.
If the “boil-dry” safety cut-out has activated (check
if reset button is pushed in) or the element has failed, the message
will recur in about 1 hour.
OVERFILL This means that the boiler has sensed water on the fifth
level sensor (highest probe). If a previous “CLEAN PROBES-1”
message had been ignored, eventually the water level would rise
to the “overfill” sensor and bring on the (CLEAN PROBES-2)
message.
Clean the probes as described in Section-13.
If this does not resolve the fault, the boiler has overfilled. This
may be caused by a faulty water inlet valve or very high or low
incoming water pressure.
MAINS PCB COMS. FAIL This means there is an electrical communication
problem between the main PCB and the display PCB.
In 80% of cases, this will be caused by a fault with the flying
wire-lead which connects both circuit boards together. Check that
the wires are tightly pushed into the JST connector plug and that
the JST plug is pushed firmly into the PCB sockets on both circuit
boards.
Switch boiler off at the wall and back-on again to clear fault message.
If this does not clear the error message, the fault must be with
one of the circuit boards.
If the boiler is working correctly (e.g. filling heating etc.),
it is most likely that the fault is on the display PCB.
