Worcester Bosch Insulation Top 200/240 87161083240

The Worcester Bosch 87161083240 is the top insulation panel used on the 200/240 variants of the Camray 5 oil boiler range. It is a shaped thermal insulation component that sits at the upper end of the appliance, where it limits heat loss from the boiler casing and keeps surface temperatures at the top of the unit under control. Insulation panels of this type degrade over years of heat cycling, so they are a routine replacement item during servicing or repair work.

• The panel is cracked, brittle or crumbling when handled during a service
• Visible heat damage, scorching or heavy discolouration across the insulation surface
• The panel no longer sits flush in its location, leaving gaps at the top of the casing
• The top of the boiler casing runs noticeably hotter than expected in normal operation
• The panel has broken up or dropped out of position after the casing has been removed and refitted

• Confirm the appliance is a Camray 5 200/240 model before ordering, as this panel is specific to that range
• Check the part number on the existing panel or in the appliance parts list to confirm the match
• Note the alternative number 1021187 when cross-referencing suppliers or older documentation
• Inspect the surrounding casing seals and fixings at the same time, as these are often disturbed when the top panel is removed
