7.1.1 To Start the VCLUS Heater
1. First ensure that the gas supply to each
heater is turned on by opening the main
gas shut off valve.
2. Ensure that the setting of any time clock
and thermostat are such that the heating
system will be required to operate.
3. Switch on the electricity supply to the
heater. The fan will start, the ‘power on’
light on the burner will illuminate and
ignition commence.
4. Ignition will occur.
5. If ignition is unsuccessful the gas valve will
close and the spark ignition de-energize
after approximately 15 seconds. For
approximately 30 seconds the fan will
purge the system then re-ignition will be
attempted. After 3 attempts at ignition the
control unit will ‘lock-out’, the ‘power on’
lamp will remain illuminated and the fan will
continue to run for 120 seconds then stop.
To reset after ‘lockout’, switch off the
power supply to the heater and wait 5
minutes. Then turn the power on. If
repeated ‘lockout’ occurs investigate the
cause.
