Immergas Victrix fault 45
ΔT high
Gas boilerWhat it means
The boiler detects a sudden, unexpected increase in the ΔT between the flow probe and the system return probe.
Likely causes
- Insufficient water circulation in the boiler
- Pump not configured according to system requirements
- Faulty return probe
- No/insufficient water circulation in the boiler
- Return probe malfunction
- Lack of water in the appliance
- Little water circulation in the system
- Blocked pump
- Disconnected PWM signal wire (when boiler is requesting ignition but pump stays in stand-by)
- Disconnection of the PWM control signal between PCB and pump
- Boiler electronics not requesting pump ignition (normal, condition OK)
- Boiler electronics requesting pump ignition but pump not responding (faulty condition, probable disconnection of the PWM signal)
- Blocked pump (Par. 1.29)
- Drain trap not yet filled with condensate on first start-up, allowing combustion products to escape via condensate drain
- Long period of inactivity causing pump/rotor seizure
Where to start
- Make sure there is water circulating in the boiler
- Check that the pump is configured according to system requirements
- Check that the return probe works properly

Safety: Isolate gas and power before you open the case. If you have been into the gas side, do a tightness test, and a combustion and flue check before you hand back. Gas Safe (UK) or RGI (Ireland) work only.
