Important information
Burners
N6 and N7 GL-RZ3/LFL
are designed for the combustion of natural gas and light oil. The design and function of the burners comply with EN676 and EN 267. They are designed for use with systems that are approved for the use of burners in accordance with EN 676 and EN 267.. To use the burner with heat generators in conformity with Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/ EU, special burner components are required (not supplied with standard equipment). Before using the burner with equipment of this type, the equipment characteristics must be checked. Burners that comply with Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EU come with a declaration of conformity to this effect and are labelled on the identi­fication plate. Any other type of applica­tion requires the approval of ELCO. The burner may only be used in accordance with the instructions set out in this docu­mentation and the relevant technical data. If not used properly, it could cause damage to property and the environ­ment and personal injury. Furthermore, the burner would no longer be CE com­pliant. Installation, commissioning and maintenance may only be carried out by authorised specialists and all applicable guidelines and regulations must be complied with.
Burner description

Installation
Boiler lining for GL-RZ3/LFL burner
Boiler lining
The burner lining must be installed right­angled to the burner tube. Possible trimming work (bevelling, rounding) as required for reverse boilers, for example, should done at a diameter not below 70% of the combustion chamber diameter. The space between the flame tube of the burner and the boiler lining should be lined with heat resistant material, such as Cerafelt.
This space is not allowed to be lined with brickwork
Sealed area must cover the entire circumference
Seal corners with sealing tape
Warning!
Owing to the fibre diameter, the mineral fibre tightness thermocord may cause reversible mechanical irritation to the eyes and skin. In the event of high dust concentrations, the upper respiratory tract may suffer mechanical irritation. When working with the tightness ther­mocord, the operator should wear loose­fitting, long-sleeved clothing. In the event of high fibre dust concentrations, the operator should wear an FFP1 mask and well-sealed protective goggles (when carrying out overhead work too).

Installation Gas train
Gas train description
Gas train installation
To install the gas train supplied in the burner, the unions and seals intended for this must be used (supplied with the product).
Warning: in order to prevent injury, heavy gas train components should only be fitted using suitable aids and lifting equipment (crane, cable slings, assembly supports). The max. tightening torques must be complied with (see chapter on Installation/ tightening torques). The unions must be tightened crosswise and evenly. The union must be checked to ensure that it is tight. For further information, please refer to the chapter on commissioning the gas connec­tion.
Gas valve group selection
The gas trains must be dimensioned to suit the throughput required and the available gas pressure. The gas valve group is defined on a system-specific basis. The following must be taken into consider­ation:
• Burner output,
• Combustion chamber counterpressure,
• Gas pressure loss in the burner head,
• Gas pressure losses in the gas fittings.
The total drop in gas pressure must always be lower than the available gas flow pressure.
The burner's scope of delivery may include a gas train. In this case, the burner and the gas train are issued with a CE Declaration of Con­formity. If the gas train is not delivered with the burner, the conformity of the burner is valid only if the gas fittings and the design of the gas train satisfy the burner test specified by EN 676 and meet the Pressure Equipment Directive. Individual testing will be necessary where this is not the case. The gas train delivered has its own documentation including operating instructions and a spare parts list. There follows a general description of the gas train.
Gas trains with a double gas valve are intended for the supply, main shut-off, gas fil­tration, gas pressure regulation and monitor­ing of the gas supply. They are compatible for use with gases conforming to the specifica­tions of the gas fittings. The design complies with EN 676. All function parts have been individually tested and awarded the CE mark and number of the notified body. The prefitted gas train is subjected to a leak test at the manufacturer's works.
Low- and high-pressure gas trains
If the outlet side of the regulator, i.e. individual fittings and instruments downstream of the gas pressure regulator, has not been designed to be compatible with the maximum supply pressure that occurs in the event of a fault, the gas train must be equipped with a safety shut-off valve (SSOV) and a safety relief valve (SRV) in accordance with EN 676. This equipment is generally required for maximum supply pressures of >360 mbar and > 500 mbar respectively. These are known as high-pressure gas trains. If all fittings and instruments of the gas train have been designed/approved for the maximum supply pressure that occurs in the event of a fault, the gas train is known as a low-pressure gas train. This is the case, depending on component selection, for maximum supply pressures of 360 and 500 mbar.

Low and high-pressure gas trains
If the outlet side of the regulator, i.e. individual fittings and instruments down­stream of the gas pressure regulator, has not been designed to be compatible with the maximum supply pressure that occurs in the event of a fault, the gas train must be equipped with a safety shut-off valve (SSOV) and a safety relief valve (SRV) in accordance with EN 676. This equipment is generally required for maximum supply pressures of >360 mbar and > 500 mbar respec­tively. These are known as high­pressure gas trains. If all gas train fittings and equipment have been designed and/or approved for the maximum supply pressure that occurs in the event of a fault, the gas train is known as a low-pressure gas train. This is the case, depending on component selection, for maximum supply pressures of 360 and 500 mbar.
Gas valve group
The gas valve group is defined on a system-specific basis.
The following must be taken into consid­eration:
• Burner output
• Furnace counterpressure
• Gas pressure loss in the burner head
• Gas pressure losses in the gas fittings
The total drop in gas pressure must always be lower than the available gas flow pressure.
The section of the pipings must be cal­culated so that the loss of load doesn’t exceed 5% of the supply pressure.
Warning!
With burners that have the CE mark, only the use of gas fittings that have been approved on the basis of burner type-testing is permitted. If alternative gas fittings are used, the burner must undergo individual testing by the relevant testing body.

Determining the differential pre­flushing pressure and adjusting the differential pressure switch
• Burner in the pre-aeration phase.
• Measure pressure on test connection (2).
• Measure vacuum on test connection (3).
• Add the measured pressures.
• Set the scale to 90% of the calculated value.
Switch function test
• Test buttons are provided to check the switch functions for proper operation (with safety cut-out and interlock). The burner is normally run in part-load condition when testing the safety func­tions. On pressing button (4) the vacuum will be removed which causes the differential pressure to drop below the required level. If it is necessary to test the pressure switch functions under full-load conditions this may be done by pressing button (1).

Gas pressure switch GW...A5/A6
The gas pressure switch is designed to monitor the gas flow pressure. It can be used for monitoring either falling pressure (minimum) or rising pressure (maximum, specified for equipment according to TRD 604). The types GW...A5/A6 may be used as pressure switches of a specific construc­tion according to VdTÜV leaflet "Pressure 100/1" for application in furnaces complying with TRD 604. The setpoint (switching point) may be selected by means of a setting disk with vessel.
Air pressure switch
The air pressure switch is provided for monitoring the pressure of the combustion air fan. Pressure switch LGW... is suitable for switching an electrical circuit or for switching it on or off if the actual pressure values are changing vis-a-vis the setpoint. The pressure switch LGW... can be used as overpressure, vacuum or differential pressure switch for air and non-aggressive gases but not for gases according to DVGW Worksheet G 260/l.
Certification
The pressure switch has been tested in accordance with EN1854 and is CE/DIN-
DVGW-registered. It has been registered in other important gas consumption coun­tries.
N.B.(Gas and air pressure switches) The pressure switches must be set in accordance with the specifications. Furthermore, each time they are set, a function test must be carried out. Non­compliance could result in personal injury or damage to property! Once the pressure switches have been set, they must be protected to prevent settings from being altered. For example, this can be done by placing a spot of varnish on at least one of the screws on the equipment's protective cover.
Setting the min. gas pressure switch
Remove the protective cover. At the rated output, measure the gas flow pressure and calculate the switch-off pressure by reducing by approximately 20%. Adjust the graduated disc to the desired switch-off pressure opposite the arrow (the graduations are approximate values). Operate the burner at minimum power. Close the gas shut-off valve slowly to obtain the desired switch-off pressure. Turn the graduated disc until the burner switches off. Refit and screw down the protective cover.
Max. gas pressure switch
Remove the protective cover. At the rated output, measure the gas flow pressure and calculate the switch-off pressure by increasing by approximately 20% (no more than 30% under any cir­cumstances). Adjust the graduated disc to the desired switch-off pressure opposite the arrow (the graduations are approximate values). Operate the burner at minimum power. If the max. gas pressure switch switches off the burner, increase the adjustment value but not to more than 130% of the flow pressure at the rated output.

Leakage controller VPS 504 S02 Working principle :
Prior to each burner start-up, the control­ler checks for possible leaks between safety and main valves by increasing supply pressure. Electrically, the leakage controller is serially connected between the thermo­static circuit and burner control and safety unit. Installation : Directly on valve.
Program stages :
On stoppage, safety and main valves are closed. On thermostat stoppage, the leakage controller is turned on and booster increases supply pressure by 20 mbar. After no more than 30 seconds operation :
- the leakage test has been passed; the
yellow light comes on and current is released to feed the burner’s control and safety unit, which then starts its program cycle.
- If the leakage test is not passed; the
red light comes on and the power supply to the control and safety unit for the burner is not released. Control cycles have to be restarted manually. Change valve if fault persists.
Setting :
The controller requires no on-site setting. Working test : While controller is working :
• Open pa pressure switch. The precip-
itated leak prevents superpressure from building up and safety unit locks.
• Reclose pa pressure switch.
• Release controller safety by pressing
red indicator light. The leakage test is restarted; after 30 seconds, yellow indicator lights up and powers up the burner's control and safety unit, which then starts its program cycle.
Test burner
Depending on the country-specific requirements, when installing steam boilers it may be necessary to fit a test burner to the gas train (e.g. in line with directive TRD 412). This is used to vent the gas pipes. The gas supply is switched on by pressing the button (1). The flow of gas brings in the required amount of com­bustion air via the hole in the burner tube (3). The gas/air mixture is routed towards the burner head (4) and ignited manually at its opening. Gas is supplied for as long as the button is pressed and cut off when it is released.
Technical data:
• Type of gas: gases in accordance with DVGW worksheet G 260/1, gas families 1, 2, 3
• Ambient temp.: -15°C to +70°C
• Installation position: vertical, facing upwards

Fuel oil pressure switch
Fuel oil pressure switch
Fuel oil pressure switches are used to monitor burners to ensure that they do not exceed or fall below specific fuel oil pressures. Depending on the burner variant, pressure switches may be specified for backflow only or for backflow and the supply line. The shut-off pressure in question is set depending on the system parameters (ring line pressure, fuel oil nozzle etc.).
Fuel oil pressure damping
To reduce fluctuations in fuel oil pressure, a throttle screw (2) or a capillary tube may be screwed into the connection nozzle.
Adjustment of switching pressure
To adjust the switching pressure, the adjustment button (1) can be pulled upward and reinserted the opposite way around.
Setting the fuel oil pressure switch min.:
The shut-off pressure is the fuel oil supply pressure at full load, minus approx. 20%.
Setting the fuel oil pressure switch max. (only for burners with a return nozzle):
The shut-off pressure is the ring line pressure with a full load plus approx.
2...3 bar. The set shut-off pressure should also take cognisance of the set switch differ­ence. When the setting procedure is complete, the setting button must be returned to its original orientation for safety. A seal must be applied to the pressure switch to secure the setting (Item 4).
Switching difference
The switching difference may be set at the limits of the pressure switch in accordance with the values in the table. To do this, the set screw must be rotated in the adjusting screw (3) for the switching point. 1 turn modifies the switching difference by approx. 20% of the total switching difference range.

General information regarding fuel oil system
Fuel oil connection
Hoses are used to make a connection to the fuel oil tubes or the gate valves. To prevent kinks and therefore any risk of rupture, the hoses must be fed correctly (no tension or distortion). When install­ing the fuel oil tubes or the gate valves, care must be taken to ensure that the lines terminate as close to the burner as possible and that they are positioned in such a way that the boiler door and the burner can be swivelled out without obstruction.
Gate valve
In the fuel supply feed line, manual gate valves must be fitted before the burner (supply line and backflow). These must be installed in such a way that they are easily accessible. The manual gate valves are not included in the scope of delivery.
Gas and air separators
Air or gas In the fuel supply line could cause noise and operational problems. In order to avoid this, a suitable gas air separator must be fitted in the fuel supply line.
Fuel oil filter
To protect the oil pressure pump and the hydraulic system, a filter must be installed before the pump. A filter with 200 µm is recommended.
Installation options
• Two-line installation (separate supply line and return line with no delivery pump)
• Ring line system (with delivery pump and gas-air separator)
Fuel oil pressure regulator (supply line)
The supply pressure is regulated by the pressure regulator fitted in the pump and, depending on the burner output and make of nozzle, it is set to 10­15 bar. The pressure regulator is actuated by rotating screw 3. Before commissioning, the pump must be filled with fuel oil.
Venting
With the ring line, if any, in operation, open the supply line and return gate valves. Reduce the oil pressure on the pressure regulation valve. Switch on the pump by depressing the contactor. Check whether the direction of rotation is correct, the pump is supplying fuel oil and the fuel oil hydraulics system is leak-proof. Vent the pump, e.g. at the pressure gauge connector. When com­missioning the burner, the oil pressure must be increased slowly until it reaches the operating value.
Pressure regulation (fuel oil intake pressure)
The maximum possible vacuum is
0.2 bar. If the vacuum pressure is greater than this, gas emissions are produced from the fuel oil and this could cause problems. In the case of ring line operation, the oil pressure at the pump must not exceed the maximum permissible pressure. For the maximum pressure, please refer to the technical data.
Connecting test devices
Before setting the burner, test pressure gauges must be fitted to determine supply pressure 1 and possibly intake pressure 2.
N.B.:
When commissioning is complete, the pressure gauges must be removed and the connections must be duly sealed. If the pressure gauges are left on the burner, they must all be shut off with shut-off valves.

Pump type J7
Areas of application
- Light, medium-grade oil
- Two-line system.
- Generally connected to the solenoid valve in the nozzle line
Description of Functions
The gearbox draws the fuel oil from the tank through the built-in filter and supplies it under pressure to the valve which controls the oil pressure for the nozzle line. In the case of two-line installations, fuel oil which exceeds the nozzle capacity flows back to the tank through the valve via the return opening. Description of how the integrated valve works: a flat section on the pressure reg­ulation piston assists drainage of the fuel oil*. If rotation of the gearbox is increased when pumping commences, all the fuel oil flows to the backflow via the flat section and the hydraulic valve remains closed. It is only when a specific rotational gearbox speed is reached that the fuel oil can no longer be returned via the flat section. The pressure before the control piston increases rapidly and opens the valve as soon as it is higher than the force of the valve springs. When switched off, the valve closes as soon as the gearbox capacity is lower than the outflow via the flat section on the piston on account of the lower rota­tional speed. Opening and closing of the valve depends on the size of the gearbox and the set pump pressure.
Venting
In the two-line system, venting is carried out automatically. However, venting can be speeded up by opening the pressure connection.
*In the J 1002 models, the bypass hole in the nozzle plug prevents shut-off. For shut-off, a separate solenoid valve must be installed in the nozzle line.

Nozzle line, 3-stage
3-stage nozzle line
The nozzle line consists of three pipes each of which carries the fuel oil to a nozzle. The flow of the fuel oil is control­led by the upstream fuel oil safety valves. These are normally closed. Each of the three valves controls a nozzle in the fuel line. When the valves are engaged, load stages 1, 2 and 3 are implemented. In load stage 3, i.e. at maximum burner output, all the valves are open and all the nozzles are operating simultaneously. To the front of the nozzle line there is a nozzle plate designed to hold the nozzles. The table (see below) lists the standard
fuel oil nozzles for the lowest and highest output range. Intermediate gra­dations are possible. The nozzle config­uration selected must ensure that the burner output falls within the specified working field (see technical data). It must not fall below or exceed this. It is essential to have stable, hygienic and reliable combustion. The fuel oil pressure set must be taken into account when selecting the nozzle.
Valve block
The valve block collects the oil and dis­tributes it to the three fuel oil valves fitted directly onto the block. The fuel oil is supplied through the fuel oil pump on the burner. Before it reaches the fuel oil block, the fuel oil first passes through the first fuel oil safety valve. The valve block is fixed to the rear of the nozzle line with two screws. In this way, the entire burner head can be dis­mounted along with the nozzle line and valve block.
The connections to be unscrewed have been kept to a minimum.
The nozzles for the 3-stage nozzle line are selected so as to meet the maximum performance requirements of the boiler with the best possible control range and high combustion quality overall. This means that in selecting the nozzles, not only is the nominal capacity of the relevant boiler crucial, so is the minimum performance and the quality of combus­tion during each load stage. The nozzle for the first stage must be selected in such a way that it is within the range of the permissible working field of the burner. For the working field and the minimum permissible outputs, please refer to the technical data.

Description
The "SQM" servomotor is designed for use in fuel oil, gas or two-stage burners that operate in accordance with the sliding or modulating principle. The reversible servomotor comes with a syn­chronous motor which drives a shaft via a gearbox. The shaft end carries a coupling to drive the fuel and combus­tion air actuator.
The SQM servomotor has been designed for dual-wire control by con­troller or switching units with change­over contacts. Suitable potentiometers can be fitted for a very wide range of applications. The 60 Hz frequency will reduce the running times by approx. 17 %.
Limit switch factory setting
The limit and auxiliary switches are set by means of manually adjustable latching cam plates. Scales are fitted between the disks to facilitate the selection of the switching points. The cam plates are provided with a small pointer for indicating the switching point of a scale between the setting ranges. An additional scale fitted to the end of the cam roller serves to indicate the position of the servomotor.
The drive unit may be disengaged from the controlling element by changing over a rocker arm mounted to the gearbox. This will allow any desired position of the controller plate to be selected by hand. Drive and output will be coupled in the vertical position of the rocker arm.
The fuel-air curve must be set over the entire adjustment range of the cam disk so that safe operation can still be guar­anteed even if the limit switch is over­ridden.

Flame monitor Probe current measurement
Using a UV probe for flame monitor­ing
For the monitoring method, the UV radiation from hot flame gases is used to create the flame signal. A radiation detector is a UV-sensitive tube with two electrodes to which voltage is constantly applied. When illuminated with light from the 190...270 nm range of the spectrum, it fires and applies current to the flame signal amplifier. The UV tube does not react to the after-glow of fireclay in the furnace, sunlight, daylight or the lighting used to illuminate the boiler room. The tubes have a service life of approx. 10,000 hours at ambient temperatures
of up to 50°C; higher ambient tempera­tures reduce the service life considera­bly.
Burners used for constant or intermittent operation for more than 24 hours without a break (e.g. boiler sequence control) or burners used in conjunction with steam boilers must be fitted with control and safety unit LGK 16... and the self-moni­toring flame monitoring circuit (QRA
5...).
UV current measurement with QRA 5
In order to carry out accurate UV current measurement, we recommend the use of test device KF 8832. For UV current measurements with normal test equipment (microammeter) we recommend that the measurement be carried out as shown in the diagram. A suitable capacitor must be integrated into the test circuit (for details see the table entitled "Probe currents and test devices"). Connect the test device between the control and safety unit and the UV flame probe QRA 5... (terminals 22 (-) and 5 (+)). Flame probe current test device KF8832 must not be left in constant use because self-monitoring is not guaranteed during the test process.
Ensure that the polarity is correct! Flame probe current test device KF8832 must not be left in constant use because self-monitoring is not guaranteed during the test process.
Alignment of UV probe QRA 5...
The movable connecting flange on the probe tube facilitates precise alignment of the probe window with the direction of incidence of UV radiation.
Please note!
The terminal (22) must always be earthed.
Cleaning the probe
The UV probe window must be regularly inspected for dirt and cleaned. The probe window must be kept free of dust. If this measure proves unsuccessful, the tubes must be replaced.

• A standard-compliant measuring point must be available, the exhaust gas duct up to the measuring point must be free of leaks to prevent anomalies in the measurement results.
All electrical installation and connec­tion work must only be carried out by a suitably qualified electrician. The applicable guidelines and direc-
tives must be observed, as well as the electrical circuit diagram supplied with the burner!
Before connecting the burner, it is essential to ensure that the entire burner has reached the ambient tem­perature. Otherwise, there is a risk that condensation will form on elec­tronic components resulting in damage to property and personal injury!
Gas train connection
The connectors on the burner must be used for connecting the gas train. Cogni­sance must be taken of the equipment labelling and the electrical circuit diagram.
Electrical connection
The electrical connections, i.e. the installation materials and all the connec­tors and earth/ground connections, must be installed in compliance with the spec­ifications. The electrical installation of the burner must be carried out in accordance with the circuit diagram drawn up for the
furnace. The electrical connection of the burner may only be performed by authorised professionals.
Please note:
When installing the connection cable, the cable loops selected must be large enough to allow the boiler door to swivel open. When electrical connection work is complete, the wiring for the burner electrics must be checked. This includes checking the direction of rotation of the fan or the fuel oil pump motor.

Gas connection
Gas connection
The gas lines and valve groups should be installed and taken into operation in accordance with the applicable engi­neering standards and regulations.
The connection between the gas distri­bution network and the gas ramp must be done by authorised persons.
All the gas ramp components must be fitted and installed without bending or distortion or any other form of mechani­cal stress.
The section of the pipings must be cal­culated so that the loss of load doesn’t exceed 5% of the supply pressure.
A quarter turn manual valve (not supplied) must be provided for upstream of the gas ramp and the filter.
The max. operating pressure for the shut-off device must be 1.5 times the max. connection pressure. Ease of access must be guaranteed. Precau­tions must be taken to prevent uninten­tional actuation. The operating position of the gate valve must be quite obvious. The manually operated valve should have fixed stops in the "OPEN" and "SHUT" positions.
The filter must be installed on a horizon­tal nozzle with the cover in the vertical position to enable cleaning.
Depending on the current specification, a thermally triggered gate valve must be provided for on site (not supplied).
All the gas ramp components must be protected against condensation and if necessary, a condensate trap (not supplied) must be provided for on site.
The threaded unions used must be in conformity with present standards (tapered male thread, straight female thread with sealing provided in the thread).
Sufficient space must be provided for setting and maintaining the gas ramp components (gas pressure switch, valves, pressure regulator, gas filter, test burner etc.) (see technical data).
Gas properties
Prior to any installation work make sure to obtain the following data from the gas supply company:
1. Type of gas
2. Calorific value Hu
n
= kWh/m3 (kJ/m3)
3. Max. CO
2
content of exhaust gas
4. Gas connection pressure and rest pressure
Type of gas test
Prior to mounting the burner to the gas feed line check the available type of gas and burner type against the data given on the burner nameplate (attached to burner). Be sure the description of the burner and the type of gas are the same as indicated on the nameplate.
Gas connection pressure
A minimum connection pressure must be available upstream of the burner gas valve to ensure the proper functioning of the burner. For the installation of the valves and instruments group take care to observe the mounting instructions supplied by their manufacturers (these are packed with the equipment). The gas line installed to the burner must be dimen­sioned in accordance with the through­put rate and the available pressure.
For selecting the nominal bore "DN" of the gas valve group care should be
taken to observe the flue resistance of the boiler and the gas pressure loss of the burner and valve group.
Warning!
The absence of impurities and foreign bodies must be checked before installa­tion and commissioning of the gas ramp, the lever valves and unions.
Gas valve group
The gas valve group can be connected directly to the gas feed line. Take care
to observe the correct order of instal­lation and direction of flow (arrow on housing).
Check the valves and instruments and connection pieces for absence of dirt particles and foreign matter before installation and initial operation. To
provide effective conditions for start­up make sure the distance between the burner and the gas stop valve is as short as possible.
Leak test
The gas line upstream of the burner gas valve group must be installed in accord­ance with the applicable regulations, checked for absence of leaks, vented and certified accordingly by the gas installation company. The screwed unions and flanged joints must be checked for proper tightness (by making a pressure test). The leak test must be made under pressure using approved foaming agents which do not cause cor­rosion. For steam boiler furnaces the result of the leak test must be duly certi­fied.
Venting Please note!
Prior to taking the burner into operation or after any repair work make sure to vent the complete gas feed line and the gas valve group into the open atmos­phere (e.g. by means of a hose) taking care to avoid any hazards.
In no case should the gas line be vented into the heating or furnace chambers.
Make use of a test burner to check the gas-carrying spaces are free from an inflammable gas mixture.
Support
The valve group must be supported with a telescopic jacking member or similar during and after installation (e.g. on filter and valve).
Joint
It is recommended to provide an easy­to-disconnect joint (with planar sealing faces) to facilitate repair work on the boiler (furnace) and allow the boiler door to be swivelled out if required.

Fuel-air coupler control
Fuel-air coupler control
This finely tuned coupler control system allows the relevant fuel-air ratio to be set across the entire control range. For use in gas mode, fuel and air are evenly varied in sliding mode. For use in fuel oil mode, 3 output stages are available. The output stages are switched on or off depending on the air supply.
With the sliding, two-stage regulator, part and full load are available within the regulation range. These two load points are started up in sliding mode depending on the heat request. Large volumes of fuel are not switched on or off suddenly. In continuously adjustable regulation mode, the system starts up at any point within the control range depending on the heat requirement. The only difference between the sliding two-stage burners and the stepless burners is the burner's electrical control system. There are no mechanical differ­ences. The 3-stage regulator has 3 distinct output stages which are started up depending on the system's heat require­ment (temperature or pressure level). The fuel volumes of the stages are switched on or off once. As with the other regulators, the mechanics remain the same.
Mechanical coupler
When using the 3-stage fuel oil system, only the air flap is moved via the drive. Depending on the drive or air flap setting, the output stages can be switched on or off via the limit switch on the servomotor. In order to ensure optimum matching of air and fuel over the entire control range, the air flap can be set using the adjusta­ble set screw on the coupler control.
N.B.:
The air curve is first set in gas mode. With the same air curve setting, oil mode is set up via the limit switch on the servo­motor.

Commissioning of the burner
General warnings:
The drive can be disengaged both from the camshaft and the drive shaft (see chapter on servomotor). The camshaft can be disengaged to move the drive display to where it can be seen. Normally, however, this should not be necessary since the settings have already been made at the factory. Warning: if the camshaft is moved, this also modifies all the switching positions of the limit switch. Therefore, each time a change is made, the switching positions must be checked and may need to be reset; the burner may also need to be checked to ensure it is working properly! If this warning is ignored, the possibility of dangerous operating conditions and faulty combus­tion cannot be ruled out! This may result in damage to property and the environ­ment and personal injury. Therefore, the camshaft should only be set before the system is commissioned for the first time. During commissioning, only the drive shaft may be disengaged to facilitate a manual coupler control pro­cedure! The camshaft and drive shaft must not be disengaged at the same time.
Note on setting the ignition position:
The ignition position must be set so as to ensure that the burner ignites evenly and noiselessly. The ignition power should not exceed a max. of 33% of the maximum possible burner power (see technical data)
1. Commissioning, gas
• Set the Local-0-Remote switch (S057) on the switch cabinet to local (manually).
• Set limit switches [1], [2] and [3] to the setpoints (empirical or standard values). Set limit switch [3] for the ignition position just above limit switch [2] (~ +2°). The standard settings for the limit switch are shown in the table below.
• Set the fuel selection via remote control (S064) to gas .
• Switch on the burner, set the burner switch (S051) to 1. The burner program begins and following ignition, the basic load position is started up. Set the air pressure switch in accordance with the chapter on commissioning the gas pressure switch/ air pressure switch.
• Adjustment of the air rate (O2 value) in basic load. The combustion air rate is set by rotating the set screw (item 1). Clockwise: less air (O2). Counter­clockwise: more air (O2).
• With switch""+/-"" (S061) or with the servomotor disengaged [A], gradually raise the system to full load while pre­setting the air rate using the set screw
(item 1); check combustion! N.B.: For satisfactory regulation, the curve characteristic must be set in such a way that where possible, the entire adjustment range of the curve characteristic, from part load to full load, can be utilised. Warning: Be careful when disengag­ing the drive: it is spring-loaded! Only disengage the drive shaft!"
• Adjusting the full load by adjusting the air rate (O2 value) and matching the gas pressure (burner output). Resetting the full load limit switch. The burner output must not be higher than the equivalent of the maximum com­bustion heat output of the heat generator (see chapter on the exhaust gas test). The maximum burner output must come within the permissible working field (see technical data). Set the gas pressure switch in accord­ance with the chapter on commission­ing the gas pressure switch / air pressure switch
• Use the "+/-" switch (S061) to gradually increase to basic load while adjusting the air rate precisely in line with the change in gas pressure.
• The most important data (flow, output, gas pressure, burner air pressure, emission rates, ...) must be logged in at least three output items (low load, medium load, full load)*
• Set limit switch [2] for basic load (minimum combustion heat output) to the desired minimum load

Dual fuel load regulator (fuel oil)
2. Fuel oil commissioning
• Set limit switches [4], [5], [6], [7] and [8] to the setpoints (empirical or standard values). N.B.: The limit switch positions [4], [6] and [8] for the three load stages are approximately located at the points at which the same output is produced in gas mode. For switching the oil stage, limit switches [5] and [7] are located between the positions for [4] and [6] or [6] and [8]. The standard setting values for the limit switch are shown in the table below.
• Set the fuel selection via remote control (S064) to fuel oil .
• Set the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063) to 1.
• Switch on the burner, set the burner switch (S051) to 1.
• The burner program starts up. When the burner pump starts up, check the fuel oil supply pressure and pre-set it (see chapter on fuel oil supply, fuel oil pump). After preventilation, the system ignites in load stage 1.
• Adjustment of air rate and fuel oil output in stage 1. The fuel oil output is preset by the fuel oil pressure regula­tion valve (see chapter on fuel oil supply, fuel oil pump). The combus­tion air rate is set via the position of limit switch [4]. The curve characteris­tic for the air flap is not adjusted.
O2 rate too low: gradually move the limit switch to a higher position until the required rate is reached. O2 rate too high: disengage the servo­motor [A] and move forwards until the required O2 rate is reached; set the limit switches [4] to the new position. Check whether the new limit switch position starts up correctly. Warning: Be careful when disengag­ing the drive: it is spring-loaded! Only disengage the drive shaft! The output release of the output stages does not depend on the output stage set at the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063). In the case of the manual drive procedure, limit switches [5] and [7] may be started up for fuel release for load stages 2 and 3. When these limit switches are started up, the fuel oil valve, and consequently the output of the corresponding stage, are released! In order to avoid early switching, limit switches [5] and [7] must be set correspondingly high.
• Set the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063) to 2.
• Adjustment of the air rate in stage 2. The combustion air rate for the 2nd stage is set using the limit switch [6] in the same way as for stage 1.
• Set the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063) to 1 and check the perform­ance of the burner at the switching point for stage 2 fuel release. If neces­sary, readjust the limit switch [5] and check it again by changing the load stage between stages 1 and 2. The switching point must be selected so as to ensure that there is adequate stability in stage 1 at precisely the switching point and that acceptable characteristic emission rates (soot) are achieved at stage 2. An O2 rate of
approx. 7....9 % at the switching point
has been proven reliable (O2 rate shortly before switching to the next highest stage). In order to set the switching point for the next load stage change, it can be approximated from the next lowest stage. From the next lowest load stage, the drive is gradually increased (disengage ser­vomotor [A], note the spring tension!) until the desired O2 rate is reached (7 ...9 % O2 or possibly higher). The flame should still be sufficiently steady. The limit switch [5] switching position is set to this point. When switching to the next load stage, the characteristic combustion values must be checked. It may be necessary to readjust the limit switch [5] at the switching point. N.B.: If switching occurs before the desired O2 rate is reached, limit switch [5] must be set higher.
• Set the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063) to 3
• Air rate adjustment in stage 3. The combustion air rate for the 3rd stage is
set using the limit switch [8] in the same way as for stages 1 and 2 The burner output must not be higher than the equivalent of the maximum combustion heat output of the heat generator (see chapter on the exhaust gas test) The maximum burner output must come within the permissible working field (see technical data) Set the fuel oil pressure switch min. in accordance with the chapter on com­missioning the fuel oil pressure switch.
• Check the burner's combustion per­formance at the switching point for stage 3 combustion release. The procedure is in line with that applied in stages 2 and 1.
• The most important data (flow, output, gas pressure, burner air pressure, emission rates, ...) must be logged for the 3 load stages*
• Set the timed fuel oil circuit breaker (S063) to 1
• Switch off the burner
• Set the Local-0-Remote switch ( S057) to remote (automatic)
* The following values must be recorded at a minimum:
- Type of fuel, type of gas
- Wobbe index (heat value); calorific value
- Volumetric gas flow, fuel oil mass flow
- Lowest and highest combustion effi­ciency; also 1 to 2 intermediate values
- Gas, fuel oil and air pressures (gas connection, gas regulator, burner head, setting pressure, fan pressure, furnace pressure, fuel oil pressures)
- Exhaust gas emissions (NOx, O2, CO, CO2, soot) as a percentage/ ppm
- Temperature and humidity of the com­bustion air

Before commissioning the system for the first time, the following controls must be carried out:
• Observe the operating instructions of the boiler manufacturer. The boiler must be fitted and ready to operate
• The heating system must be filled with sufficient water
• The entire system must be checked to ensure that the electrical wiring of all the system components is correct
• Check the direction of rotation of the burner motor
• Ensure that the temperature or pressure regulator, the limiter, the safety switches and electrical limit switches are set correctly
• Check the gas connection pressure
• Check for leaks in the gas supply elements
• Check venting of the fuel supply lines (no trapped air)
• Is there fuel oil in the tank, in the lines and the fuel oil pump, has the correct fuel oil nozzle been installed?
• Check the fuel oil hydraulics for leaks
• Are exhaust gas ducts open and is there an adequate supply of fresh air?
• Is the burner in the start position: air flap in the "CLOSED" position?
• The control and safety unit for the elec­tronic coupler is unlocked and in the starting position
Before the first fuel release, a function test must be carried out on the burner program sequence.
Fuel oil system:
• Open the fuel oil gate valve
• First disable the fuel oil solenoid valve (see burner/hydraulics diagram)
• Start the burner and monitor the program sequence to ensure that the correct start-up sequence is followed:
1. Fan on
2. Preventilation of air flaps
3. Air pressure regulation
4. Part load of air flap
5. Ignition
6. Valves open (disconnected valve
remains shut)
7. Lockout after safety time expires
(see control and safety unit)
• Valve closes again
• Unlock the control and safety unit for the electronic coupler
Gas system:
• Open the gas shut-off valve on the valve group briefly until there is pressure, then shut it again
• Start the burner and monitor the program sequence to ensure that the correct start-up sequence is followed:
1. Fan
2. Preventilation of air flaps
3. Air pressure regulation
4. Part load of air flap
5. Ignition
6. Open the valves
7. Lockout after safety time expires (see control and safety unit) or system shuts down for a lack of gas
• Unlock the control and safety unit for the electronic coupler.
Gas commissioning
Please note! Adjust the gas section before adjusting the fuel oil section. Set the fuel selection switch via remote control to "gas".
• Connect the test devices for the gas head pressure on the test connection after the gas control butterfly and the air pressure on the test connection for the burner.
• Connect the test devices for measuring the flame monitoring current.
• Open the gas shut-off valve before the gas trains and check the gas pressure from the pressure gauge.
• Set the "Manual-automatic" selector switch to "Manual" or "Manual opera­tion".
If a valve leak test is being carried out, wait until there is a positive result from the leak test. If the valves prove to be leaky, the system does not move on to the control and safety unit. The burner starts up in accordance with the program sequence for the control and safety units for the electronic coupler.
Fuel oil commissioning
Open all the gate valves on the fuel oil supply system.
• Set the fuel selection via remote control to "Fuel oil"
• Fill the pump with fuel oil
• Set the pressure gauge for supply line and possibly for return pressure regu­lation (only in the case of burners with return nozzles)
• Set the pressure gauge for pressure regulation on the intake side of the pump or check the ring line pressure.
Venting
Switch on the burner briefly and check whether the direction of rotation is correct. Vent the fuel oil tube and the fuel oil pump.
Warning!
At the factory, the hydraulic system is filled with test oil. When commissioning the unit for the first time, this may cause ignition problems. When delivered from the factory, the fuel oil pressure regulator is released to protect the pump, i.e. no pressure is set. When commissioning the burner, the fuel oil pressure must be raised slowly to the operating value.

Preventilation
Preventilation:
Care must be taken to ensure that the boiler system is adequately ventilated. The system-specific instructions must be complied with. The burner is designed so that it is preventilated when
the full load setting is selected. The pre­ventilation times depend on the control and safety units and can be referred to in the relevant chapter. Assuming the conditions in the area or the boiler unit are the same for preventi-
lation and standard burner operation (loss of boiler pressure, temperatures), the air rate delivered by the burner for preventilation may be calculated as follows:

Fuel oil start-up mode
As soon as the furnace is required to supply heat, the burner control circuit will close and the program flow started. When the program has come to its end, the burner will be turned on.
When the burner is not shut down, the air flap is at zero (basic load setting for gas).
The control and safety unit controls and monitors start-up. The burner fan starts up and the electrical servomotor opens the air flap to the full load position so the furnace and the exhaust hoods are ven­tilated at the specified air rate. Shortly after the preventilation process has been started the safety device used to detect an absence of air is switched to the operating position within a certain time, i.e. the minimum air pressure setting must be reached and maintained until the burner is shut down. At the end of the specified preventilation time, the air flap is moved to the part load position in a linked control concept with the gas control butterfly. The ignition transformer is activated. Pre-ignition takes place and the fuel oil is then released. The solenoid valves open and supply the fuel oil under pressure to the nozzle. The fuel oil is nebulised, mixed with the combustion air and ignited. A normal, steady flame must be formed within the safety time. When the safety time elapses, a flame signal must be sent to the control and safety unit via the flame monitor and must remain in place until the control system is switched off. The start-up programme for the burner is completed.
Fuel oil operating mode
After the flame has developed the load regulator will be enabled This brings the burner to its operating position. From this point on, the regulation automatically controls the burner between part load and full load. The 3 stage load regulator for fuel oil is implemented with two temperature switches or pressure switches. These are calibrated to two different values for temperature and pressure respectively. The high temperature / pressure switch value controls the transition from the 1st to the 2nd load stage while the low value controls the transition from the 2nd to the 3rd stage. When the system reaches the low tem­perature or pressure value on account of the relevant heat requirement, the 2nd and 3rd output stages are released and the burner starts up the 3rd output stage. Alternatively, the burner may also be fitted with PID regulation for fuel oil oper­ation; in this case, however, the regulator is still 3-stage as before and only the proportional function of the PID regulation is used. Only the proportional function of the reg­ulation is used. The burner is always shut down from the part load setting. As far as possible, the air flap is closed when the burner is shut down (basic gas mode load setting) in order to reduce the flow of cold air through the combustion chamber, heat exchanger and chimney. The interior cooling losses will be greatly minimised.
Warning: If gate valves have been installed in the exhaust gas tract, they must be fully opened during the start-up phase, otherwise there is a risk of a low­speed detonation or an explosion! The open-position of the flue damper can be assured by the integration of the opening contact of the shut-off damper in the safety chain of the heat generator.
General safety functions
In case a flame does not develop when starting the burner (fuel release), the burner controller will shut off at the end of the safety period (lockout).. A lockout will also occur in the case of flame failure during operation, air flow failure during the preventilation phase and pressure failure during the whole period of burner operation. Any flame signal failure that occurs after the safety time elapses, and any signal during preventilation (external light control) will result in a lockout and the control and safety unit is locked. The fault is indicated by the fault signal lamp lighting up. The Control and safety unit can be unlocked immediately after a lockout by pressing the unlocking key. The program unit will return to its starting position and proceed with the restart of the burner. If there is a power failure, the control system is shut down. After voltage recovery, the burner can be automatically restarted unless another interlock is active, e.g. one caused by the safety circuit. The fuel oil supply will always be stopped immediately upon occurrence of any fault. At the same time, the program unit and consequently the fault indicator will stop. The symbols indicate the type of fault.

Gas start-up mode
If the furnace is required to supply heat, the burner control circuit closes and the program sequence com­mences. When the program sequence ends, the burner starts up.
An automatic test is made for the tightness of the gas valves prior to each burner start.
When the burner is shut down, the air flap is at zero (basic load setting for gas).
The electric servomotor opens the air flap to the full load position so that the burner ventilates the furnace and the exhaust hoods at the specified air rate. Shortly after the preventilation process has been started the lack-of-air cut-out must change over to operating position within a certain time, i.e. the minimum air pressure setting must be reached and maintained until the burner is turned off. At the end of the specified preventilation time the air flap is moved to the part load position in a linked control concept with the gas control butterfly. The ignition transformer is activated.
After the pre-ignition time, the main gas valves are open and the gas comes out from injectors where it is mixed in the combustion components with air coming from the fan. The gas-air mixture is ignited by the high-voltage ignition sparks directly. A steady flame must be formed within the safety time. The ignition is stopped before the end of the safety time and the burner operates at its minimum power. The start-up programme is completed.
Gas operating mode
After the flame has developed the load regulator will be enabled This brings the burner to its operating position. From this point on, the regulation automatically controls the burner between part load and full load. Depending on the heat demand, the electric servomotor of the compound control system will be fed with the OPEN or CLOSE command via the regulator and thus increase or decrease the gas and air flow rates. This coupler control is used to set the gas control butterfly and the air flap so that it controls the gas rate in the coupler with the air. For burner regulation, a two-stage sliding system or a suitable continuously adjustable regulator may be used. The continuously adjustable control makes it
possible to operate the burner at any desired stage between its part-load and full-load positions. The burner is always switched off from the Part load setting. As far as possible, the air flap is closed when the burner is shut down (basic gas mode load setting) and this reduces the flow of cold air through the combustion chamber, heat exchanger and chimney. The interior cooling losses will be greatly minimised.
Warning: If gate valves have been installed in the exhaust gas tract, they must be fully opened during the start-up phase, otherwise there is a risk of a low­speed detonation or an explosion! The open-position of the shut-off damper can be assured by the integration of the opening contact of the shut-off damper in the safety chain of the heat generator.

In case a flame does not develop when starting the burner (fuel release), the burner controller will shut off at the end of the safety period (lockout). A lockout will also occur in the case of flame failure during operation, air flow failure during the preventilation phase and pressure failure during the whole period of burner operation. Any failure of the flame signal at the end of the safety period and a flame signal during the pre­ventilation phase (external light control) will result in a lockout with the Control and safety unit being locked.
The fault is indicated by the fault signal lamp lighting up. The Control and safety unit can be unlocked immediately after a lockout by pressing the unlocking key. The program unit will return to its starting position and proceed with the restart of the burner.
A voltage failure will result in a regular shut-off of the burner. After voltage recovery, the burner can be automati­cally restarted unless another interlock is active, e.g. one caused by the safety circuit. The fuel oil supply will always be stopped immediately upon occurrence of any fault. The control unit will stop at the same
time causing also the fault indicator to stop. The symbols will indicate the kind of fault.

Servicing
Maintenance
Burner and boiler servicing must only be carried out by a professionally qualified heating engineer. The system operator is advised to take out a maintenance contract to guarantee regular servicing. Depending on the type of installation, shorter maintenance intervals may be necessary.
Warning:
If maintenance is not carried out properly in accordance with these instructions, system malfunctions and dangerous operating condi­tions could ensue. This may result in a break­down, damage to property and the environment and personal injury. A log must be kept of all maintenance and servicing work. All wear parts must be replaced in accord­ance with the specified cycle times (see table below).
Before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning work on the burner, the following steps must be followed. For maintenance work, the floor of the work area must be free of dirt and slip-resistant. Provision must be made for adequate lighting. When maintaining heavy compo­nents (e.g. the fan motor), suitable lifting equipment must be used.
1. Turn off the power supply and protect the system from accidental start-up
2. Interrupt the supply of fuel
3. Check the system for residual power and ensure that steps 1 and 2 have been effective
4. Before opening the burner casing, ensure that the fan motor has stopped completely.
Failure to observe these instruction may result in severe or fatal injuries and/or damage to property.
• Use original spare parts. If original spare parts are not used, the system may no longer be CE-compliant!
Warning:
Each time maintenance work is carried out, it is essential to ensure that no tools, cleaning cloths or other items are left in the burner body. Any items left behind could affect the functionality of the burner and could result in damage to property or personal injury!
Work recommended as part of annual burner maintenance:
- Burner test run, input measurement in the boiler room
- Clean the combustion components and replace defective parts if necessary
- Clean the fan wheel and the fan
- Clean the gas filter; replace it if necessary
- Visual inspection of the burner's electrical components; eliminate malfunctions if necessary
- Check burner start-up (combustion per­formance, emissions, burner output)
- Leakage test
- Function tests on the burner's safety equip­ment, the safety chain for the boiler system (air pressure, gas pressure and fuel oil pressure switches, the flame monitor, the leak detection device, the safety valves, the safety chain components). The mainte­nance and safety specifications for the boiler system must be complied with.
- Flame monitor and automatic combustion control unit function check
- Checking the gas circulation pressure upstream and downstream of the gas train and checking the static gas pressure
- Check the gas flow
- Correct the adjustment values if necessary
- Draw up a measurement report* * The following values must be recorded at a minimum:
- Type of fuel, type of gas
- Wobbe index (heat value); calorific value
- Volumetric gas flow, fuel oil mass flow
- Lowest and highest useful combustion effi­ciency; also 1 to 2 intermediate values
- Gas, fuel oil and air pressures (gas connec­tion, gas regulator, burner head, setting pressure, fan pressure, furnace pressure, fuel oil pressures)
- Exhaust gas emissions (NOx, O2, CO, CO2, soot) as a percentage/ ppm
- Temperature and humidity of the combus­tion air
- Flue gases temperature
- Atmospheric air pressure
General checks
- Emergency stop button function check
- Visual inspection of gas lines in the boiler room
The list contains the minimum number of switching cycles and the shortest possible service life for wear parts* and safety-related components. The actual service life could be much higher and this depends on the operating conditions. For reasons of opera­tional and functional safety, the recommended periods of use should not be exceeded.

Maintenance Checking / assembling the combustion components
Filter replacement
• The multiblock filter screen (only applies to MBC...) must be checked at least once a year and if it is clogged it must be replaced (see page 13).
• Loosen the screws on the multiblock cover.
• Remove the filter element and clean its housing.
• Do not use any pressurised cleaning products.
• Replace the filter element with a new element.
• Screw the cover back into place.
• Reopen the manual gate valve.
• Check it is airtight.
• Check the combustion values.
Cleaning the cover
• Do not use abrasive products or products containing chlorine.
• Clean the cover with water and a suitable cleaning product.
• Refit the cover.
Important After every operation: check the com­bustion parameters and real operating condition (doors closed, cover fitted etc.). Record the results in the relevant documents.
Important Once the pressure switches have been set, they must be protected to prevent settings from being altered. For example, this can be done by placing a spot of varnish on at least one of the screws on the equipment's protective cover. After the burner is maintained or after safety device equipment settings for the burner have been changed (e.g. pressure switches), the safety equipment for the burner must be checked to ensure it is working properly. After burner maintenance, the boiler safety chain must also be checked to ensure that it is working properly in accordance with the current specifications. This check must be carried out with the user's agreement.
Checking the flue gases temperature
• Check the flue gases temperature at regular intervals.
• Clean the boiler if the flue gases tem­perature is more than 30 °C above the value measured at the time of com­missioning.
• Use a flue gases temperature gauge to make the check easier.
Assembling the combustion components
• Check that the O-Ring J1 is in the correct position in the gas elbow.
• Check the deflector (if it is dirty or sooty, clean it).
• Check the nozzles (if they are clogged, dirty or damaged replace them).
• Check the ignition transformers
• Check the electrode settings
• Check the ignition leads
• Check the quick-action coupling for the fuel oil connection
• Connect the ignition lead to the electrodes and the transformers (warning: do no mix up the connections for the fuel oil and gas)
• Install the connection with the fuel oil supply system (valve block - fuel oil system)
• Connect the electrical lead wire to the solenoid valves
• Insert the combustion components into the flame tube, tighten the mounting screws S3.
• Connect the ionisation cable and the ignition lead to the combustion components
• Connect the ignition lead to the ignition transformer T1.
Important
If the system is converted from natural gas type E to L or LL or vice versa, the burner
must be reset. It is not necessary to modify the combus­tion components in any way.

Air fan setting
The air fan can be stopped at any position on the motor shaft. To achieve a high slipping torque, the surface of all the parts to be inserted into one another must be clean and grease­free.
Removing the air fan
N.B.: Before removing the air fan, a mark must be made on the shaft in order to ensure that the wheel is in the same position after reinstallation. If the wheel position on the shaft is changed axially, efficiency may be reduced and this could result in reduced air output.
To remove the wheels, undo the screws (items 1 and 2); screw one of them into the hole in the bushing to half a thread fitting (item 3) as a lever screw and pull. This loosens the bushing. The loosened disc unit can now be removed by hand without force and without causing damage.
Air fan installation
- Clean all the bare surfaces and degrease them
- Insert the discs and bushings into one another, align the holes.
- Align the screws on opposite sides (items 1 and 2) and tighten them evenly.
The following tightening torques must be complied with:

Exhaust gas test
Exhaust gas test
In order to ensure efficient and fault-free operation, the burner must be adjusted with reference to the specific system. The fuel combustion air coupler controller, which is used to set the burner to clean combustion, is used for this. To do this, exhaust gas tests must be carried out. To determine the effi­ciency and quality of combustion, the per­centage of CO
2
or O2 and the flue gases temperature must be measured. Before the test is carried out, it is essential to ensure that the boiler and/or the exhaust gas system are properly sealed.
False air distorts the measurement
If possible, the exhaust gases should not have any residual oxygen content (O
2
) and/or they should contain as much carbon dioxide (CO2) as possible. In all load stages, the carbon monoxide content of the exhaust gases must be below the limit values specified in the relevant
current specifications. If fuel oil is being used, the permissible smoke spot number in the exhaust gas must not be exceeded.
Calculating the volumetric flow rate for gas
The combustion output (Q
F
) of a boiler is the amount of heat supplied by the gas in a time unit. When commissioning the system, the fuel volume flow must be set in accordance with the nominal heat output of the boiler.

Depending on the cleanliness status of the combustion air, the fan impeller, ignition electrodes, flame probes and air flaps must be cleaned as required.
For burner with mechanical coupler: lubricate ball heads on the adjusting screws for the coupler controller.
The bearing points of the burner moving parts require no maintenance. Damage to ball bearings should be detected and eliminated at an early stage to avoid greater consequential damage. Listen to the motor bearing noise to identify possible irregularities.
4. Nozzle - uneven atomisation
Cause Remedy
Nozzle loose Tighten Bore partially
clogged
Remove and clean or replace
worn as a result of prolonged usage
Replace
- No fuel oil supply: Nozzle clogged Remove
clean Nozzle leak Replace Leak in nozzle
line shut-off
Replace
5. No response to flame by Control and safety unit with flame sensor
Cause Remedy
Dirty flame sensor.
Clean.
Burner fails to start.
Check connec-
tion with the
control and
safety unit Control and
safety unit warning light on; flame fault
Unlock and
search for cause
Ionisation current too weak.
Check combus-
tion setting
Burner starts without flame formation:
solenoid valve not opening
Coil, detector
defective, check
connection
Lack of gas or gas pressure too low.
Check gas
pressure regulator,
gas valve, gas
filter.
Is the equipment
gas cock open?
6. Combustion components (due to poor combustion values) oiled too much internally
or heavy coke deposits
(fuel oil mode)
Cause Remedy
Incorrect settings.
Correct settings.
Incorrect burner head
Replace
Nozzle too big or too small
Replace
Incorrect nozzle spray angle
Replace nozzle
High or low com­bustion air flow rate.
Readjust burner.
Furnace chamber not sufficiently venti­lated.
The boiler room must be ventilated through an unlockable opening with a cross section of at least 50 % of all chimney cross sections in the furnace.
7. Solenoid valve fails to open
Cause Remedy
Defective coil. Replace coil or
valve
Defective Control and safety unit.
Replace Control and safety unit.
Will not close properly: dirt on sealing surfaces
Open valve; remove foreign matter; replace valve if required.

Smell of gas, danger of gas
• Shut down the burner
• Close the gas shut-off valve
• Keep away fire and naked flames
• Switch off the emergency switch
• Ensure there is adequate ventilation
• Notify the gas company and customer services
According to DIN 4788, components
with technical safety-related functions may not be repaired. On the other hand, they may be replaced by original parts or parts of equal quality.
How to proceed in case of danger
• Switch off the emergency switch
• Close fuel valves
• If there is a smell of gas, notify the gas supply company
• Use suitable extinguishing equipment, e.g. fire extinguisher in acc. with DIN 14 406, fire class B,C.
• Servicing work on pressure switches, automatic actuators, limiters and control and safety units or other safety devices may only be carried out by the relevant manufacturer or by service engineers authorised to service the individual items of equipment on their behalf.
• If third parties work on the system, our obli­gations under our warranty become void.
If system faults occur, proceed with checking the basic conditions for proper operation of the system.
Make a check for the following:
1. Is fuel available, is it flowing through the
lines and is the supply pressure adequate?
2. Is power being supplied to the system?
3. Are all the control and safety
instruments, e.g. temperature controller, safety limiter, low water detector, electri-
cal limit switches etc. in proper working order and set correctly? If it is found that none of the above reasons for the fault applies, the burner functions must be thor­oughly checked.
Prevailing conditions:
The burner will be found to be out of operation and in faulty and interlocked position. Identify the cause of the fault and rectify it. Unlock the Control and safety unit by pressing the fault eliminate key and start the burner.
Do not press the fault eliminate key longer than 10 seconds.
The start-up program will be initiated and should be carefully monitored. The possible cause of the fault may be quickly found by reference to the fault indicator of the Control and safety unit and watching the start-up and operating program.

Basically, any type of fault will result in the immediate stop of the fuel supply. At the same time, the program
unit and consequently the fault indicator will stop. The type of fault can be identi­fied by the symbol opposite to the reading mark of the indicator:
Does not start, because the "Off"
limit switch for the "Closed" air flap does not have a signal on terminal (8) or because a contact has not closed between terminals (12) and (4) or (4) and (5); the contacts for all the control and safety units in the control loop have failed to close (e.g. gas or air pressure switch, temperature or pressure switch, temperature or pressure regulator).
Operating stop because the
"OPEN" signal from the "air flap OPEN" limit switch is missing on terminal (8). Control and adjust­ment of the relevant limit switch is required.
Lockout because the air pressure
was not displayed at the start of air pressure regulation. Any air
pressure failure after this time will also lead to a lockout.
Lockoutbecause of a fault in the
flame monitoring circuit.
Operating stop because the
position signal of the "Part load" limit switch (air flap in "Part load" position) is not available on terminal (8). Check and adjust the limit switch concerned.
1 Lockout because a flame signal is
not available on the expiry of the (1st) safety time.
Any failure of the flame signal on the expiry of the safety time will also lead to a lockout.
2 Lockout because the flame signal
has not occurred on the expiry of the (2nd) safety time (flame signal of main flame with burners having an ignition gas valve).
Lockout because the flame signal failed during burner operation or a lack of air has occurred.
Lockout after the control program
ends; caused by external light (e.g. by unextinguished flame, leaking fuel valves) or a faulty flame signal (e.g. fault in flame monitoring circuit or similar); see flame monitor.
If the lockout occurs at any other time between start and pre-ignition that is not identified by a symbol as above, this will normally be due to an early flame signal which is considered to be a faulty flame signal.
The Control and safety unit may be unlocked immediately after a lockout
using the unlock button with integrated fault signal lamp or an external switch. After it has been unlocked (and after a defect with resultant operating stop has been eliminated and after a voltage failure), the program unit will in any case return to its starting position with voltage being only supplied to terminals 7, 9, 10 and 11 as preset by the control program. It is only at this stage that the program of the Control and safety unit will restart the burner.
