Ferroli fault code F52
Fault code F52 on a Ferroli boiler (including BlueSense 4 and BlueSense 5) means: Water pressure too low (lower than 0.4 bar). Reset the appliance once. If the code comes back, a part is usually faulty. You can check the water pressure and settings yourself; leave work on gas-carrying parts to a certified gas engineer.
After a safety alert (gas, flue gas, combustion), reset no more than once and call in a certified gas engineer. If you smell gas, call your national gas emergency number or 112 immediately.
Cause
Fault code F52 on a Ferroli boiler indicates: Water pressure too low (lower than 0.4 bar).
Fixing fault code F52: step by step
- Read the water pressure on the display or gauge. With the system cold it should be between 1.5 and 2 bar.
- If it is lower, top up to 1.5–2 bar with the filling valve or filling loop, then close the valve again.
- Bleed the radiators with a radiator key, then check the pressure again and top up if needed.
- Reset the appliance once. If the code comes straight back, do not keep resetting it.
- Does the pressure drop again within a few days, or does the code come back? Then there is a leak somewhere (radiator, pipe, pressure relief valve or expansion vessel) or the pressure or flow sensor is faulty.
Applies to
Ferroli BlueSense 4, BlueSense 5, 12/22/32.
