MODULATION OPERATION DESCRIPTION
When the burner is ignited at the minimum flow-rate, if the modula -
tion probe allows it (adjusted to a temperature or pressure which is
greater than that present in the boiler) the air adjustment servomotor
begins to operate,
• in a clockwise direction the air flow increases;
• anticlockwise rotation: the air flow decreases.
causing a gradual increase in the combustion air and fuel flow, until it
reaches the maximum flow setting of the burner.
The burner remains in the maximum flow position until the tempera -
ture or pressure is high enough to trip the modulation probe, which
reverses the rotation of the air adjustment servomotor.
Reverse rotation of the servomotor and consequently a reduction in
gas and air flow take place in short time intervals.
With this procedure, the modulation system attempts to balance the
amount of heat supplied to the boiler with respect to the amount the
boiler releases for use.
The modulation probe installed on the boiler measures any request
variation and automatically adjusts fuel and combustion air supply, by
starting the air/gas adjustment servomotor and increasing or reducing
rotation as necessary.
If the threshold value (temperature or pressure), to which the comple-
te shut-down device (thermostat or pressure switch) is set, is reached
even with minimum gas and air output, the burner will be shut down
when the device is triggered.
When temperature or pressure returns below the shut-down device
tripping value, the burner is activated once again according to the
program described in the previous section.
