Operation
New heaters
New heaters need a short cleaning period before they are ready for operation. Fire the heaters for at least 30
minutes on full capacity to burn-off oily and greasy remnants of the production. Make sure that after 30 minutes
all smoke and smell is disappeared.
Ignition of the heater
Warning: after a manual operated heater is extinguished (intentionally or unintentionally) wait always for 3
minutes before (re)ignition. This is a worldwide safety rule and intended to ventilate unburned gases away and
to leave enough time for the thermocouple device to close.
Note: ignition shall always be done in high fire. To do so, the gas pressure shall be adjusted at maximum
(nominal) pressure as indicated on the data plate, solenoid valves shall be in open or high fire position. If desired,
the heat input of the heater can be set to low fire after about 30 seconds after ignition.
Note: If 10 ignition attempts are made in sequence within a short interval (<120 seconds per ignition attempt)
the electronic ignition device will fall into a safety lockout and needs a reset (cool down period) for 20 minutes.
During the reset, leave the power on to feed the internal reset timer.
Manual operated heaters
(All models, except models with
…Ei… or …SEi…)
Ignition of the heater
1) Open all gas taps and turn the gas pressure regulator (if mounted) on nominal pressure, open the solenoid
valve (S)(if mounted) by electricity. (Fig. 2a, 2b). In case the heater has a high/low fire setting, ignite always in
high fire position.
2) Keep a flame of a BBQ lighter (or long match) in the ignition hole of the burner gauze directly above the
ceramic stone. (Fig. 3a).
3) Press the knob of the gas safety device, ignite the burner, and wait for 10-25 seconds after ignition before
releasing the knob. (Fig. 4).
4) The burner will stay on now.
5) Repeat al steps again in case the burner directly extinguishes.
