DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE

The Morco EUP6 and EUP11 are an open flued 6 and 11 litre
instantaneous gas water heater.
The air for combustion comes from the external vents in the
cupboard that the heater is placed in and hence very careful atten-
tion must be paid to providing sufficient ventilation.
See section Room Ventilation.
The appliance is suitable for use in dedicated boiler cupboards in
caravan holiday homes.
The appliance relies on a pilot flame to ignite the main burner
once a hot tap is opened.
The appliance does not store hot water.
The flow of the water through the appliance can be adjusted from
3 to 6 litres per minute (EUP6 model) and 5.5 to 11 litres per mi-
nute (EUP11 model) and this corresponds to the temperature of
the incoming water being increased by 50°C or 25°C respectively.
This adjustment is made via the water temperature adjustment
knob and during winter months it is advisable to move the knob
fully clockwise to ensure hot water of an acceptable temperature.

INSTALLATION

Regulations

The use of gas devices is controlled by precise regulations.
Installation of liquid petroleum gas (L.P.G) must comply with all the ma-
nufacturer's requirements and those of the regulations.

Wall mounting

Warning
Do not install this device in an area that contains dust, greasy vapour and/
or corrosive elements.
- The device must be installed on a suitable wall surface that allows the
fitting of a vertical exhaust gas flue
- It is vital to leave the minimal distances around the device as shown in
fig 2 (pag. 33) to allow for maintenance operations to take place.
Location
The water heater requires a plentiful supply of fresh air for correct ope-
ration. Fixed ventilators or air inlets should not be obstructed.
Do not install the water heater in a location where incomplete combu-
stion is foreseeable such as bathrooms or bedrooms unless specifically
allowed by national legislation.
The minimum low and high level free ventilation areas are stated on this
page and must be observed.
The water heater must be fixed to a load bearing wall in a vertical
plane.

Room ventilation

The installation of the water heater must comply with regulations in for-
ce including any updates (see page 4).
Warning: This device can only be installed in venues that are permanently
ventilated according to regulation in force.
• COMBUSTION GAS REMOVAL
A single wall vertical flue pipe of Ø90 (for EUP6) and Ø110mm (for
EUP11) must be used and when it passes through combustible materials,
a metal sleeve of Ø170mm must be used to allow an air gap of 25 mm.
Part codes FTFCT (for EUP6) and FTFCTRIMG101 (for EUP11).
Flue pipes and terminals should comply with BS 715. Terminals shall not
be sited within 300 mm. of a ventilator or open window. In the U.K. full
details of flueing requirements are given in BS EN 1949.
The overall length of the flue must be 600mm from the bottom of the
terminal louvres to the top of the water heater. At least 250mm of this
length must be external to the roof through which it is fitted.
• AIR SUPPLY FOR COMBUSTION
Air requirements: Reference is made to BS EN 1949 and EN 721 covering
ventilation requirements for permanent dwellings, caravans and boats.
Fixed ventilation should be provided to avoid draughts as far as possible
without impairing the free area of ventilation, even in ad- verse weather
conditions. If the heater is positioned in location which may be subjected
to strong draughts i.e. close to a window or opening then strong draughts
or gusts of wind may extinguish the pilot.
All permanent openings for ventilation should be designed to pre- vent
the entry of vermin. Where screens are provided, they should not have
apertures of less than 6 mm. or greater than 9 mm. in any direction, and
they should be accessible for cleaning. Fine mesh screens shall be avoided
as they are liable to become blocked with dust.
The location of vents and the method of cleaning them should be stated
in the Owners Handbook (Caravans and Boats).
