PART I: INSTALLATION
GENERAL FEATURES
This series of industrial burners is designed for all those applications that require big-sized air fans or air-flue heat exchangers to be
installed in sound-proof areas to reduce noise. They can be provided with built-in or separately-mounted control panel (console or wallmounted).

Gas operation: the gas coming from the supply line, passes through the valves group provided with filter and stabiliser. This one for-
ces the pressure in the utilisation limits. The actuator (2) moves proportionally the air damper and the gas butterfly valve It drives an
adjusting cam (1) with variable shape. This one allows the optimisation of the gas flue values, as to get an efficient combustion.
Light oil operation:the fuel coming from the supply line, is pushed by the pump to the nozzle and then into the combustion chamber,
where the mixture between fuel and air takes place and consequently the flame.
In the burners, the mixture bertween fuel and air, to perform clean and efficient combustion, is activated by atomisation of oil into very
small particles. This process is achieved making pressurised oil passing through the nozzle.
The pump (8) main function is to transfer oil from the tank to the nozzle in the desired quantity and pressure. To adjust this pressure,
pumps are provided with a pressure regulator (except for some models for which a separate regulating valve is provided). Other pumps
are provided with two pressure regulators: one for the high and one for low pressure (in double-stage systems with one nozzle).
The adjustable combustion head can improve the burner performance. The combustion head (11) determines the energetic quality and
the geometry of the flame. Fuel and comburent are routed into separated ways as far as the zone of flame generation (combustion
chamber).

How to choose the burner
To check if the burner is suitable for the boiler to which it must be installled, the following parameters are needed:
zfuel
zfurnace input, in kW or kcal/h (kW = kcal/h / 860);
zboiler type;
zcombustione head type (reverse flame or three phase)’
ztemperature or pressure of the thermal carrier fluid
zComburent air temperature
zAir duct positioning
zPressure in the combustion chamber
zElevation (altitude) of burner installation
zGas train (only for gas burners)
zPumping unit (only for light-oil or heavy-oil burners)
zAir fan
zBilt-in or separated control panel

See the diagram in Fig. 2, as to find the burners that better suite the power range requested in the exmple (9600kW). Once the models
are founded out, the choice regards technical and economical features. Technical features can be summarised in a higher modulation
ratio (fewer start-ups, less consumption, fewer swigings in the generator temperature and pressure values.
Checking the proper gas train size
To check the proper gas train size, it is necessary to know the available gas pressure value upstream the burner’s gas valve. Then
subtract the backpressure. The result is called pgas. Draw a vertical line matching the furnace input value (600kW, in the example),
quoted on the x-axis, as far as intercepitng the network pressure curve, according to the installed gas train (DN65, in the example).
From the interception point, draw an horizontal line as far as matching, on the y-axis, the value of pressure necessary to get the requested furnace input. This value must be lower or equal to the p

Burner model identification
Burners are identified by burner type and model. Burner model identification is described as follows.
Caution: the gas rate value is quoted on the x-axis, the related network pressure is quoted on the y-axis (pressure value in
the combustion chamber is not included). To know the minimum pressure at the gas train inlet, necessary to get the requested gas rate, add the pressure value in the combustion chamber to the value read on the y-axis.

INSTALLATION
Packing
The burners are despatched in wodden crates whose dimensions are:
HTP1030 - HTP1050: 2180 mm x 1180 mm x 1210 mm (L x P x H)
HTP1080: 2180 mm x 1580 mm x 1560 mm (L x P x H)
Packing cases of this type are affected by humidity and are not suitable for stacking.
In each packing case, find:
1burner with gas train detached;
1gasket to be inserted between the burner and the boiler;
2 flexible oil pipes;
1 oil filter;
1envelope containing this manual
To get rid of the burner’s packing, follow the procedures laid down by current laws on disposal of materials.

Handling the burner
ATTENTION! Handling operations must be performed by trained personnel specialised on handling loads. If these
operations are not carried out correctly, the residual risk for the machine to overturn and fall down remains.
To handle the machine, use means suitable to handle requested loads (see par. “Technical specifications”).”
The burner is provided with eye-bolts for lifting.

Fitting the burner to the boiler
1To perform the installation, it is necessary to drill the boiler door as described on paragraph “Overall dimensions”;
2screw the studbolts (5) on the boiler door, according to the drilling plate (see paragraph “Overall dimensions”);
3move the burner towards the boiler: lift the burner by means of the eyebolts placed on its top side;
4remove the balst tube, by loosening the three screws beside the burner flange;
5place the the ceramic fibre plait on the burner flange;
6replace the blast tube: before fastening completely the screws, avoid any misalignement between the blast tube axis and the com-
bustion head axis;
7install the burner to the boiler;
8fix the burner to the stud bolts, by means of the fixing nuts, according to Fig. 4.
9After fitting the burner to the boiler, ensure that the gap between the blast tube and the refractory lining is sealed with appropriate
insulating material (ceramic fibre cord or refractory cement).
Pay attention when designing the air duct: dimensioning must be performed according to the flow rate, the temperature, the distance
between the fan and the burner and according to the fan features as well.
ATTENTION! The bellows unit provided is made of canvas and is provided with blocking spacers to avoid breaking it during
installation: first place the bellows unit between flanges, then remove the spacers. Canvas has to be stretched after the installation, but not stressed.
Matching the burner to the boiler
To correctly match the burner to the boiler verify the necessary input and the pressure in combustion chamber are included in the burner performance curve; otherwise the choice of the burner must be revised consulting the burner manufacturer.
To choose the blast tube lenght follow the instructions of the boiler manufacturer. In absence of these consider the following:
zCast-iron boilers, three pass flue boilers (with the first pass in the rear part): the blast tube must protrude no more than 100 mm into
the combustion chamber.
zPressurised boilers with flame reversal: in this case the blast tube must penetrate at least 50 - 100 mm into combustion chamber in
respect to the tube bundle plate.
The length of the blast tubes does not always allow this requirement to be met, and thus it may be necessary to use a suitably-sized
spacer to move the burner backwards.
GAS TRAIN CONNECTIONS
The diagrams show the components of the gas trai included in the delivery and which must be fitted by the installer.The diagrams are in
compliance with the current laws.
ATTENTION: BEFORE EXECUTING THE CONNECTIONS TO THE GAS PIPE NETWORK, BE SURE THAT THE
MANUAL CUTOFF VALVES ARE CLOSED.

NOTE: the bellow joint, the manual valve and the gaskets are not part of the standard supply.
ATTENTION: once the gas train is mounted according to the diagram on Fig. 6, the gas proving test mus be performed,
according to the procedure set by the laws in force.
The procedures of installation fo the gas valves are showed in the next paragraphs, according to the gas train used:
zflanged gas trains with Multibloc Dungs MBC..SE 1900-3100-5000 or Siemens VGD40.. (flanged valves group)
Siemens VGD20.. and VGD40.. gas valves - with SKP2.. (pressure governor)
Mounting
zWhen mounting the VGD.. double gas valve, two flanges are required (as for VGD20.. model, the flanges are threaded);
zto prevent cuttings from falling inside the valve, first fit the flanges to the piping and then clean the associated parts;
zinstall the valve;
zthe direction of gas flow must be in accordance with the direction of the arrow on the valve body;
zensure that the bolts on the flanges are properly tightened;
zensure that the connections with all components are tight;
zmake certain that the O-rings and gaskets between the flanges and the double gas valve are fitted.
z
Connect the reference gas pipe (TP in figure), to the gas pressure nipples placed on the gas pipe, downstream the gas valves: gas pressure must be measured at a distance that must be at least 5 times the pipe size .
Leave the blowhole free (SA in figure). Should the spring fitted not permit satisfactory regulation, ask one of our service centres for a
suitable replacement.
WARNING: removing the four screws BS causes the device to be unserviceable!
Once the train is installed, electrically connect all its elements: gas valves group, pressure switches, gas proving system.
ATTENTION: once the gas train is mounted according to the diagram on Fig. 6, the gas proving test mus be performed,
according to the procedure set by the laws in force.

The pumps that are used can be installed both into single-pipe and double-pipe systems.
Single-pipe system: a single pipe drives the oil from the tank to the pump’s inlet. Then, from the pump, the pressurised oil is driven to
the nozzle: a part comes out from the nozzle while the othe part goes back to the pump. In this system, the by-pass pulg, if provided,
must be removed and the optional return port, on the pump’s body, must be sealed by steel plug and washer.
Double-pipe system: as for the single pipe system, a pipe that connects the tank to the pump’s inlet is used besides another pipe that
connects the pum’s return port to the tank, as well. The excess of oil goes back to the tank: this installation can be considered self-bleeding. If provided, the inside by-pass plug must be installed to avoid air and fuel passing through the pump.
Burners come out from the factory provided for double-stage systems. They can be suited for single-pipe system (recommended in the
case of gravity feed) as decribed before.To change from a 1-pipe system to a 2-pipe-system, insert the by-pass plug G (as for ccw-rotation- referring to the pump shaft).
Caution: Changing the direction of rotation, all connections on top and side are reversed.

Bleeding in two-pipe operation is automatic : it is assured by a bleed flat on the piston. In one-pipe operation, the plug of a pressure
gauge port must be loosened until the air is evacuated from the system.
About the use of fuel pumps
zMake sure that the by-pass plug is not used in a single pipe installation, because the fuel unit will not function properly and damage
to the pump and burner motor could result.
zDo not use fuel with additives to avoid the possible formation over time of compounds which may deposit between the gear teeth,
thus obstructing them.
zAfter filling the tank, wait before starting the burner. This will give any suspended impurities time to deposit on the bottom of the
tank, thus avoiding the possibility that they might be sucked into the pump.
zOn initial commissioning a "dry" operation is foreseen for a considerable length of time (for example, when there is a long suction
line to bleed). To avoid damages inject some lubrication oil into the vacuum inlet.
zCare must be taken when installing the pump not to force the pump shaft along its axis or laterally to avoid excessive wear on the
joint, noise and overloading the gears.
zPipes should not contain air pockets. Rapid attachment joint should therefore be avoided and threaded or mechanical seal junc-
tions preferred. Junction threads, elbow joints and couplings should be sealed with removable sg component. The number of junctions should be kept to a minimum as they are a possible source of leakage.

z
Do not use PTFE tape on the suction and return line pipes to avoid the possibility that particles enter circulation. These could deposit on the pump filter or the nozzle, reducing efficiency. Always use O-Rings or mechanical seal (copper or aluminium gaskets) junctions if possible.
zAn external filter should always be installed in the suction line upstream of the fuel unit.

Connecting the burner to the light oil pumping unit
Follow the scheme in the picture below to connect the burner to the oil pumping unit. The pump sends the oil coming from the tank to
the burner. The pressure governor makes the oil reach the nozzle at the required pressure, while the excess of oil goes back to the
tank. To change the delivery pressure act on the VRM adjusting screw of the delivery pressure governor.

Electrical connections
Respect the basic safety rules. make sure of the connection to the earthing system. do not reverse the phase and
neutral connections. fit a differential thermal magnet switch adequate for connection to the mains.
ATTENTION: before executing the electrical connections, pay attention to turn the plant’s switch to OFF and be
sure that the burner’s main switch is in 0 position (OFF) too. Read carefully the chapter “WARNINGS”, and the
“Electrical connections” section.
To execute the electrical connections, please refer to the attached electrical wiring diagrams.
To execute the electrical connections, proceed as follows:
1remove the cover from the electrical board, unscrewing the fixing screws;
2 execute the electrical connections to the supply terminal board as shown in the following diagrams,
3check the direction of the fan motor (see next pargraph)
4refit the panel cover.
WARNING: The burner is provided with an electrical bridge between terminals 6 and 7; when connecting the high/
low flame thermostat, remove this bridge before connecting the thermostat.
IMPORTANT: Connecting electrical supply wires to the burner teminal block MA, be sure that the ground wire is
longer than phase and neutral ones.
Rotation of fan motor and pump motor
Once the electrical connection of the burner is executed, remember to check the rotation of the motor. The motor should rotate according to the indication on the body. In the event of wrong rotation, reverse the three-phase supply and check again the rotation of the
motor.

ADJUSTMENTS
ATTENTION: before starting the burner up, be sure that the manual cutoff valves are open and check that the pressure upstream the gas train complies the value quoted on paragraph “Technical specifications”. Be sure that the
mains switch is closed.
ATTENTION: During commissioning operations, do not let the burner operate with insufficient air flow (danger of formation of
carbon monoxide); if this should happen, make the gas decrease slowly until the normal combustion values are achieved.
WARNING: EVER LOOSE THE SEALED SCREWS, OTHERWISE THE DEVICE WARRANTY WILL BE IMMEDIATELY

Curves are referred to pressure = 0mbar in the combustion head!
The curves referred to the gas pressure in the combustion head, depending on the gas flow rate, are referred to the burner properly
adjusted (percentage of residual O
limits). During this stage, the combustion head, the gas butterfly valve and the servocontrol are at the maximum opening. Refer to Fig.

Measuring the gas pressure in the combustion head
In order to measure the pressure in the combustion head, insert the pressure gauge probes: one into the combustion chamber’s pressure outlet (Fig. 16-2) to get the pressure in the combustion chamber and the other one into the butterfly valve’s pressure outlet of the
burner (Fig. 16-3). On the basis of the measured differential pressure, it is possible to get the maximum flow rate: in the pressure - rate
curves (showed on the next paragraph), it is easy to find out the burner’s output in Stm
measured in the combustion head (quoted on the y axis). The data obtained must be considered when adjusting the gas flow rate.
NOTE: THE PRESSURE-RATE CURVES ARE GIVEN AS INFORMATION ONLY; FOR A PROPER SETTING OF THE GAS RATE,
PLEASE REFER TO THE GAS METER READING.

Gas Filter
The gas filters remove the dust particles that are present in the gas, and prevent the elements at risk (e.g.: burner valves, counters and
regulators) from becoming rapidly blocked. The filter is normally installed upstream from all the control and on-off devices.
VPS504 Gas proving system
The VPS504 check the operation of the seal of the gas shut off valves. This check is carried out as soon as the boiler thermostat gives
a start signal to the burner, creating, by means of the diaphragm
pump inside it, a pressure in the test space of 20 mbar higher than
the supply pressure.
When wishing to monitor the test, install a pressure gauge ranged to
that of the pressure supply point PA.
If the test cycle is satisfactory, after a few seconds the consent light
LC (yellow) comes on. In the opposite case the lockout light LB (red)
comes on.
To restart it is necessary to reset the appliance by pressing the illuminated pushbutton LB.

Adjustments - brief description
Adjust the air and gas flow rates at the maximum output (“high flame”) first, by means of the air damper and the adjusting cam respectively.
zCheck that the combustion parameters are in the suggested limits.
zCheck the flow rate measuring it on the counter or, if it was not possible, verifying the combustion head pressure by means of a dif-
ferential pressure gauge, as described on par. “Measuring the gas pressure in the combustion head” on page 22.
zThen, adjust the combustion values corresponding to the points between maximum and minimum: set the shape of the adjusting
cam foil. The adjusting cam sets the air/gas ratio in those points, regulating the opening-closing of the throttle gas valve.
zSet, now, the low flame output, acting on the low flame microswitch of the actuator in order to avoid the low flame output increasing
too much or that the flues temperature gets too low to cause condensation in the chimney.
Now, adjust the burner according to the actuator model provided.
Adjustment procedure
To change the burner setting during the testing in the plant, follow the next procedure.
On the DUNGS MBC..SE gas valves group, set the pressure regulator to 1/3 of its stroke, using a 2.5 allen key.
1turn the burner on by selecting GAS fuel by means of the burner CM switch (it is placed on the burner control panel)
2open the electrical panel to check the fan motor rotation and act directly on the related contactor (see next picture).

3Before starting the burner up, drive the high flame actuator microswitch matching the low flame one (in order to let the burner ope-
rates at the lowest output) to safely achieve the high flame stage.
4Start the burner up by means of the thermostat series and wait until the pre-purge time comes to an end and that the burner starts
up;
5drive the burner to high flame stage, by means fo the thermostat TAB.
6Then move progressively the microswitch to higher values until it reaches the high flame position; always check the combustion
values and eventually adjusting the gas by means of the valves group stabiliser.
7go on adjusting air and gas flow rates: check, continuosly, the flue gas analisys, as to avoid combustion with little air; dose the air
according to the gas flow rate change following the steps quoted below;
8acting on the pressure stabiliser of the valves group, adjust the gas flow rate in the high flame stage as to meet the values
requested by the boiler/utilisation:
- Siemens VGD valves group: remove cap T and act on the VR adjusting screw to increase or decrease the pressure and conse-
quently the gas rate; screwind VR the rate increases, unscrewing it decreases (see next figure).
- Dungs MBC..SE valves group: act on its pressure governor to increase or decrease the pressure and consequently the gas
9To adjust the air flow rate in the high flame stage, loose the RA nut and screw VRA as to get the desired air flow rate: moving
the rod TR towards the air damper shaft, the air damper opens and consequently the air flow rate increases, moving it far from the
shaft the air damper closes and the air flow rate decreases.
Note: once the procedure is perfomed, be sure that the blocking nut RA is fasten. Do not change the position of the air damper
rods.

Calibration of air pressure switch
To calibrate the air pressure switch, proceed as follows:
zRemove the transparent plastic cap.
zOnce air and fuel setting have been accomplished, startup the burner.
zDuring the pre-purge phase o the operation, turn slowly the adjusting ring nut VR in the clockwise direction (to increase the adju-
sting pressure) until the burner lockout, then read the value on the pressure switch scale and set it to a value reduced by 15%.
zRepeat the ignition cycle of the burner and check it runs properly.
zRefit the transparent plastic cover on the pressure switch.
Calibration of low gas pressure switch
As for the gas pressure switch calibration, proceed as follows:
zBe sure that the filter is clean.
zRemove the transparent plastic cap.
zWhile the burner is operating at the maximum output, test the gas pressure on the pressure port of the minimum gas pressure
switch.
zSlowly close the manual cutoff valve (placed upstream the pressure switch, see gas train installation diagram), until the detected
pressure is reduced by 50%. Pay attention that the CO value in the flue gas does not increase: if the CO values are higher than the
limits laid down by law, slowly open the cutoff valve as to get values lower than these limits.
zCheck that the burner is operating correctly.
zClockwise turn the pressure switch adjusting ring nut (as to increase the pressure value) until the burner stops.
zSlowly fully open the manual cutoff valve.
zRefit the transparent plastic cover on the pressure switch.

Fully modulating burners
To adjust the fully-modulating burners, use the CMF switch on the burner control panel (see next picture), instead of the TAB thermostat as described on the previous paragraphs about the progressive burners. Go on adjusting the burner as described before, paying
attention to use the CMF switch intead of TAB.
The CMF position sets the oprating stages: to drive the burner to the high-flame stage, set CMF=1; to drive it to the low-flame stage, set
CMF=2.
To move the adjusting cam set CMF=1 or 2 and then CMF=0.
CMF = 0 stop at the current position
CMF = 1 high flame operation
CMF = 2 low flame operation

Light oil circuitOil circuit
The fuel is pushed into the pump 1 to the nozzle 3 at the delivery pressure set by the pressure governor. The solenoid valve 2 stops the
fuel immission into the combustion chamber. The fuel flow rate that is not burnt goes back to the tank through the return circuit. The
spill-back nozzle is feeded at constant pressure, while the return line pressure is adjusted by means of the pressure governor controlled
by an actuator coupled to an adjusting cam. The fuel amount to be burnt is adjusted by means of the burner actuator according to the
adjustments set (see prevoius paragraph).
THE BURNER IS AN APPLIANCE DESIGNED AND CONSTRUCTED TO OPERATE ONLY AFTER BEING CORRECTLY CONNECTED TO A HEAT GENERATOR (E.G. BOILER, HOT AIR GENERATOR, FURNACE, ETC.), ANY OTHER USE IS TO BE CONSIDERED IMPROPER AND THEREFORE DANGEROUS.
THE USER MUST GUARANTEE THE CORRECT FITTING OF THE APPLIANCE, ENTRUSTING THE INSTALLATION OF IT TO
QUALIFIED PERSONNEL AND HAVING THE FIRST COMMISSIONING OF IT CARRIED OUT BY A SERVICE CENTRE AUTHORISED BY THE COMPANY MANUFACTURING THE BURNER.
A FUNDAMENTAL FACTOR IN THIS RESPECT IS THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE GENERATOR’S CONTROL AND
SAFETY UNITS (CONTROL THERMOSTAT, SAFETY, ETC.) WHICH GUARANTEES CORRECT AND SAFE FUNCTIONING OF
THE BURNER.
THEREFORE, ANY OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE MUST BE PREVENTED WHICH DEPARTS FROM THE INSTALLATION
OPERATIONS OR WHICH HAPPENS AFTER TOTAL OR PARTIAL TAMPERING WITH THESE (E.G. DISCONNECTION, EVEN
PARTIAL, OF THE ELECTRICAL LEADS, OPENING THE GENERATOR DOOR, DISMANTLING OF PART OF THE BURNER).
NEVER OPEN OR DISMANTLE ANY COMPONENT OF THE MACHINE.
OPERATE ONLY THE MAIN SWITCH, WHICH THROUGH ITS EASY ACCESSIBILITY AND RAPIDITY OF OPERATION ALSO
FUNCTIONS AS AN EMERGENCY SWITCH, AND ON THE RESET BUTTON.
IN THE EVENT OF REPEATED LOCKOUTS, DO NOT PERSIST WITH THE RESET BUTTON AND CONTACT QUALIFIED PERSONNEL WHO WILL PROCEED TO ELIMINATE THE MALFUNCTION.
WARNING: DURING NORMAL OPERATION THE PARTS OF THE BURNER NEAREST TO THE GENERATOR (COUPLING
FLANGE) CAN BECOME VERY HOT, AVOID TOUCHING THEM SO AS NOT TO GET BURNT.

OPERATION
ATTENTION: before starting the burner up, be sure that the manual cutoff valves are open and check that the pressure upstream the gas train complies the value quoted on paragraph “Technical specifications”.
zChoose the typer of fuel by turning the burner switch, on the burner control panel.
CAUTION: if the fuel chosen is light oil, be sure the cutoff valves on the feed and return pipes are open.
zCheck the control box is not locked (signalling light on); if so, reset it by means of the reset pushbutton.
zCheck the series of thermostats and pressure switches turn the burner to on.
Gas operation
zCheck the gas feeding pressure is sufficient (signalling lamp on).
Burners provided with gas proving system: the gas proving system test begins; when the test is performed the proving system LED
turns on. At the end of the test, the burner staring cycle begins: in case of leakage in a valve, the gas proving system stops the burner
and the related lamp turns on. Reset it, by means of the reset pushbutton on the device, in burners with VPS504 (pushbutton LB in picture), or by the pushbutton on the burner panel if this one is fitted with LDU11 proving system.

NOTE: if the burner is fitted with Dungs VPS504, the pre-purgue phase starts once the gas proving system is successfully performed.
Since the pre-purgue phase must be carried out with the maximum air rate, the control box drives the actuator opening and when the
maximum opening position is achieved, the pre-purge time counting starts.
zAt the end of the pre-purge time, the actuator drives the complete closing (ignition with gas position) and, as this is achieved the
ignition transformer is energised; the ignitor gas valves and the main gas valves open.
zFew seconds after the valves opening, the transformer is de-energised and lamp L turns off.
zThe burner is now operating, meanwhile the actuator goes to the high flame position and, after some seconds, the two-stage ope-
ration begins; the burner is driven automatically to high flame or low flame, according to the plant requirements.
Operation in high or low flame is signalled by the related lamp on the burner control panel.
Light oil operation
zThe fan motor starts and the pre-purge phase as well. Since the pre-purge phase must be carried out at the maximum air rate, the
control box drives the actuator opening and when the maximum opening position is reached, the pre-purge time counting starts.
zAt the end of the pre-purge time, the actuator is in the light oil ignition position: the ignition transformer is energised (lamp on); the

PART III: MAINTENANCE
At least once a year carry out the maintenance operations listed below. In the case of seasonal servicing, it is recommended to carry
out the maintenance at the end of each heating season; in the case of continuous operation the maintenance is carried out every 6
months.
WARNING: ALL OPERATIONS ON THE BURNER MUST BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE MAINS DISCONNECTED AND
THE FUEL MANAUL CUTOFF VALVES CLOSED!
ATTENTION: READ CAREFULLY THE “WARNINGS” CHAPTER AT THE BEGINNIG OF THIS MANUAL.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
zCheck and clean the gas filter cartridge, if necessary replace it (see next paragraghs);
zCheck and clean the fuel filter cartdrige, replace if necessary.
zCheck and clean the filter inside the light oil pump: filter must be thoroughly cleaned at least once in a season to ensure correct
working of the fuel unit. To remove the filter, unscrew the four screws on the cover. When reassemble, make sure that the filter is
mounted with the feet toward the pump body. If the gasket between cover and pump housing should be damaged, it must be repla-
ced. An external filter should always be installed in the suction line upstream of the fuel unit.
zCheck the fuel hoses for possible leaks.
zRemove, check and clean the combustion head (see page 37);
zCheck ignition electrodes, clean, adjust and, if necessary, replace them (see page 39);
zCheck and carefully clean the UV detector, replace it if necessary; if in doubt, check the detection current, once the burner starts up
(see on page 40).
zRemove and clean the fuel nozzle (Important: cleaning must be performed using solvent, not metal tools!). At the end of
maintenance operations after the burner reassembly, light the flame and check its shape, replacing the nozzle whenever a questio-
nable flame shape appears. Whenever the burner is used intensely, we recommend preventively replacing the nozzle at the start of
each heating season.
zClean and grease sliding and rotating parts.
ATTENTION: when servicing, if it was necessary to disassemble the gas train parts, remember to execute the gas proving
test, once the gas train is reassembled, according to the procedure imposed by the law in force.
Gas filter maintenance
ATTENTION: Before opening the filter, close the manual cutoff valve downstream the filter and bleed the gas; check that
inside the filter there is no pressurised gas.

APPENDIX
SIEMENS LFL 1.3.. CONTROL BOX
Automatic programme in the event of interruption and indication of position when interrupted
By default, in the event of any kind of interruption, the flow of fuel is immediately interrupted. At the same time the programmer stops and this indicates the position at the time of the interruption.
A symbol on the indicator disc shows each time the type of stoppage:
No start-up (for example fault in the CLOSED signal for the
limit contact "Z" at terminal 8 or some other contact between
the terminals 12 and 4 or 4 and 5 is not closed).
Start-up suspended because of a fault in the OPEN signal
for the limit contact "A" at terminal 8.
P
Block due to absence of air pressure signal. From this
moment onwards any absence of air pressure will cause a
block.
Block due to malfunction of the flame detector circuit.
Start-up interrupted because there is a fault in the MINMUM
signal for the auxiliary contact of the damper servo motor at
terminal 8.
1
Block due to absence of flame signal at the end of the 1st
safety period.
From this moment onwards any absence of a flame signal will cause a
block.
2
Blockdue to absence of flame signal at the end of the 2nd
safety period (flame signal of main burner).
Blockdue to absence of flame signal or air pressure during
operation.
Where a block stoppage occurs at any moment between switch on and
pre-ignition without registering any symbol, the cause is normally an
unscheduled flame signal.
a-bStart-up programme
b-b' For time variants:move the programmer on to the automatic stop
after the burner starts up (b' = position of the programmer during normal
burner operation).
b(b')-aPost-ventilation programme after a regulation stop.At the start-up
position "a" the programmer stops automatically.
.Safety time duration for mono-tube burners
..Safety time duration for twin-tube burners
The apparatus can be reset immediately after a block. After resetting (and
after the elimination of any problem causing the stoppage or after a power
failure) the programmer returns to its start-up position. In this event only
the terminals 7, 9, 10 and 11 are live in accordance with the monitoring
programme. Only after this the device programs a new startup.
Operation
The wiring system and also the control system of the programmer "P"
have already been given in this manual. The response signals required
for the active parts and the flame monitor circuit are shown by a hatching.
In the absence of these response signals the mechanism interrupts the
start-up programme; the exact time of the interruption can be identified
from the visual indicator and will cause a block if the safety code requires
it.
A consent to start-up by means of the thermostat or pressostat "R"
A-B start-up program
B-C normal burner operation
C regulation stop caused by "R"
C-D programmer returns to start-up position A.
During the regulation stop only terminals 11 and 12 are live and the dam-
per, through the limit contact "Z" of its servo-motor is in the CLOSED position.The flame detector circuit F is activated (terminals 22 and 23 or 23/4)
for the detector test and the paracitic light test.
Where the burners do not have dampers (or have an independent 00
damper control mechanism) there must be a bridge between terminals 6
and 8, otherwise the mechanism will not start up the burner.
For a burner to start up the following conditions must be met:
z Mechanism not blocked/reset.
z Damper closed.Limit contact switchZ must be in the CLOSED position
and allow current to flow between terminals 11 and 8.
z Any contacts checking that the fuel valve (bv...) is closed, or other con-
tacts with similar functions, must be closed between terminal 12 and
the air pressostat LP.
z The contact for the air pressostat LP must be in the off position (LP
test) so as to feed terminal 4.
z The gas pressostat contacts GP and the safety thermostat and pres-
sostat contacts W must also be closed.
Start-up program
A Start-up
(R closes the start-up control ring between terminals 4 and 5)
The programmer starts up.At the same time the ventilator motor is fed
through terminal 6 ( only for pre-ventilation) and, after t7, the ventilator
motor or the combustion gas exhaust fan is fed through terminal 7 (preventilation and post-ventilation).
At the end of t16, the command opening the damper passes through terminal 9; during the damper opening time the programmer does not move
since terminal 8, through which the programmer is fed, is dead.
Only once the damper is fully open and the limit contact switch A has
switched on, feeding terminal 8, does the programme proceed.
t1Pre-ventilation time with damper fully open (nominal air flow).
Shortly after the beginning of the pre-ventilation time, the air pressostat
should switch off the current between terminals 4 and 13;otherwisethe
apparatus would block (air pressure monitor).
At the same time the terminal 14 should be live since current feeding the
ignition transformer and the fuel valves passes through this circuit.
During pre-ventilation time the flame detector circuit is checked and in the
event of an operational defect the monitor brings about a block.
At the end of the pre-ventilation time the monitor automatically moves the
damper servo-motor, through terminal 10, to the flame ignition position
which is governed by the auxiliary contact "M".
During this period the programmer stops until terminal 8, is again activatedthrough contact "M".
After a few seconds the little programmer motor is directly fed by the
active part of the apparatus.
After this point terminal 8 plays no further part in the burner ignition process.
Mono-tube burner
t3Pre-ignition time waiting the response from the fuel valve at terminal 18.
t2Safety time (start up flame strenght); at the end of the safety time a
flame signal should appear at terminal 22 of the amplifier and it should
stay on until a regulation stop; if this does not happen the mechanism will
block.
t4 Interval; at the end of t4, terminal 19 is live.
t5Interval At the end of t5 terminal 20 is live.At the same time the
monitor outlets from 9 and 11 and terminal 8 into the active part of the
apparatus are kept galvanically separatedso as to protect the monitor
itself from recovery voltage through the capacity regulator circuit.
Page 44
Twin-tube burners (**)
t3 Preignition time until the all clear to the pilot burner valve at
terminal 17.
t2 First safety time (pilot flame strenght); at the end of the safety time
a flame signal should appear at terminal 22 of the amplifier and it should
stay on, until a regulation stop; if it does not, the apparatus will block.
t4 Interval until the consent to the fuel valve at terminal 19, for the first
flame of the main burner.
t9 2nd safety time; at the end of the second safety time the main burner should be lit by means of the pilot. At the end of this period, terminal
17 is dead and therefore the pilot burner will be out.
t5 Interval; at the end of t5 terminal 20 is live. At the same time the
monitor outlets from 9 to 11 and the terminal 8at the input of the active
part of the apparatus are galvanically separated so as to protect the apparatus itself from recovery voltage through the strenght regulator circuit.
When the strenght regulator LR at terminal 20 gives the consent,
the start-up programme for the apparatus comes to an end. Depending on
time variants, the programmer stops either immediately or at the end of a
set time, without effecting the position of the contacts.
BOperational position of the burner
B-C Burner operation (production of heat)
While the burner is working the strnght regulator controls the damper,
according to the demand for heat, by means of the positioning at nominal
load of the auxiliary contact "V" of the damper servocontrol.
CRegulation stop for operation of "R"
When there is a regulation stop the fuel valves immediately close. At the
same time the programmer starts to programme:
t6 Post-ventilation time (post-ventilation with the ventilator "G" at ter-
minal 7).Shortly after beginning of the post-ventilation time terminal 10
becomes live and moves the damper to the "MIN" position. The full closure of the damper only happens towards the end of the post-ventilation
time and is prompted by an automatic signal from terminal 11
t13Admissible post-ignition time
During this time the flame monitor circuit may still receive a flame signal
without the apparatus blocking.
D-A End of automatic programme
At the end of t6, at the point where the programmer and the automatic
contacts have reverted to the starter position, the detection probe test
restarts.
During an operational stop even an unscheduled flame signal lasting a
few seconds can cause a block because during this period an NTC in the
circuit acts as retarder.This means that brief unscheduled influences cannot cause a block.

VALVE PROVING SYSTEM SIEMENS LDU11
The LDU11... gas valve proving system is designed for use in gas-fired
plant equipped with two safety shutoff valves. During each startup cycle,
the control unit automatically programs the valve proving test and, in the
event of a leak, prevents burner startup.
The LDU11… control unit is designed to provide automatic gas valve proving (leakage test) based on the pressure proving principle. It is for use in
gas-fired plant with or without vent pipe to the atmosphere. For plants
without vent pipe, where DIN/DVGW regulations apply, refer to the hints
given on "Connection examples with vent pipe to the
atmosphere".
Gas valve proving is initiated automatically with every burner startup
using one or two standard pressure monitors, either
z prior to burner startup,
z during the pre-purge time, if it lasts at least 60 s,
z immediately after the controlled shutdown, or
z on completion of the burner control's control program, e.g. on comple-
tion of the post-purge time
The valve proving test is based on the two-stage pressure proving principle: first, the valve on the mains side is tested by evacuating the test
space and by monitoring the atmospheric pressure in it. Then, the valve
on the burner side is checked by pressurizing the test space and by monitoring the gas pressure. If the pressure increases excessively during the
Page 47
first test phase (Test 1), or decreases excessively during the second test
phase (Test 2), the control unit inhibits burner startup and goes to lockout.
In that case, the lockout reset button lights up to indicate the fault.
Remote indication of the fault is also possible.
A program indicator, which stops whenever a fault occurs, indicates which
of the two valves is leaking.
Mode of operation
To carry out the first phase of the valve proving test, called "Test 1", there
must be atmospheric pressure in the length of pipe between the two valves to be tested. In plants with a vent to the atmosphere, this pressure is
available if the valve proving test isconducted prior to or during the prepurge time. In plants without a vent pipe, atmospheric pressure is made
available as the control unit opens the valve on the burner side during the
time "t4". If the valve proving test is performed after the operation of the
burner, the valve on the burner side after the controlled shutdown can be
kept open until "t4" has elapsed, thus reducing the pressure in the test
space and making certain its gas content is burnt off in the combustion
chamber during the post-purge time. A prerequisite for this procedure is
an appropriate control program of the burner control as provided by Lan-
dis & Staefa burner controls type LFE..., LFL..., LGK.... or LEC.... The test
space is closed off after it has been evacuated.
During the first test phase (Test 1) which follows immediately, the control
unit checks if the atmospheric pressure in the test space is maintained
using the pressure monitor. If the valve on the mains side is leaking, causing the pressure to rise above the switching point of the pressure monitor, the control unit initiates an alarm and goes to lockout.
The program indicator then stops and indicates "Test 1".
If the pressure does not increase because the valve closes correctly, the
control unit immediately programs the second test phase (Test 2). To do
this, the valve on the mains side is pressurized ("filling" of test space).
During the second test phase, the pressure may not fall below the
switching point of the pressure monitor due to a leak of the valve on the
burner side.
If it does, the control unit goes to lockout again, thus inhibiting burner startup.
On the successful completion of the second test phase, the control unit
closes the internal control loop between terminals 3 and 6 (circuit path:
terminal 3 - contact "ar 2" -terminals 4 and 5 - contact III - terminal 6). This
control loop is usually included in the start control loop of the burner control.
After the control loop has been closed, the programming mechanism of
the control unit returns to its start position where it switches itself off.
During these "idle steps", the position of the control contacts of the programming mechanism remains unchanged.
Program and lockout indicator
When the unit goes to lockout, the programming mechanism stops and
also the position indicator fitted to the spindle of the mechanism. The
symbol that stops above the reading mark not only indicates during which
test phase lockout occurred, but also after how many programming steps
within the test phase (1 step = 2.5 seconds).

Start position = operating position
In plants without a vent valve: evacuation of test space
through opening of the valve on the burner side
Test 1 "Test 1" with atmospheric pressure (valve proving test on
the mains side)
Filling the test space through opening of the valve on the
mains side
Test 2 "Test 2" with gas pressure (valve proving test on the burner
side)
Idle steps until programming mechanism switches itself off
Operating position = start position for the next valve proving
test
In the event of lockout, all terminals receiving voltage from the control unit
are de-energized, except terminal 13, which is used for lockout indication.
After the unit has been reset, the programming mechanism automatically
returns to its
start position and immediately reprograms a new valve proving test.
Note: do not press the reset button for more than 10 seconds.
Control program after a power failure
A power failure prior to evacuating the test space does not cause the program sequence to change.
If a power failure occurs after the evacuation, the valve proving test will
not be continued when power is restored, but the programming mechanism first returns to its start position to reprogram the complete proving
test.
