15.5 Adjustment of the gas pressure:

 

•   

Remove the front panel 

of the case. 

•   

Open the gas valve inlet 

pressure test point (20 
in Fig. 15.6) at the valve 
input, connect a 
suitable pressure gauge 
and check the gas 
pressure of the supply 
network. 

•   

Remove the gauge and 

close the pressure test 
point 20. 

•   

Open the gas valve 

outlet pressure test 
point (19 in Fig. 15.6) 
and connect the gauge.

•   

Remove the protection 

cap I (Fig. 15.7) from 
the mechanical 
pressure adjustment 
components levering 
with a flat screwdriver in 
the slots H. 

•   

Start the boiler at its 

maximum power.

Figure 15.7 

•   

Operate the boiler in 

d.h.w. mode or ensure 
that the boiler is not 
range rated if the test is 
carried out in c.h. mode. 

•   

Rotate the maximum 

gas pressure 
adjustment (F in Fig. 
15.6) until you obtain 
the required pressure 
(by rotating clockwise 
the pressure increases). 

•   

Turn the boiler off  and 

disconnect one of the 
two connectors (E in 
Fig. 15.6). 

•   

Start the boiler and 

rotate the minimum gas 
pressure adjustment (G 
in Fig. 15.6) until you 
obtain the required 
pressure (by rotating 
clockwise the pressure 
increases). 

•   

Turn the boiler off and 

re-connect the wire to 
the modulating 
operator. 

•   

Start the boiler and 

check again the 
maximum gas pressure 
setting. 

•   

Turn the boiler off and 

disconnect the gauge. 

Important: after the 
checks all of the test 
points must be sealed. 

 

 

15.6 Checking the ignition device:

 

With the burner on high flame close the gas cock. After three ignition attempts (within about 
three minutes), the lock-out signal lamp must appear (D on Figure 15.4). To reset the boiler turn 
the knob B (figure 15.4) on the 0 position and then press and release the boiler reset button (C 
on Figure 15.4).
