Maintenance and servicing
7.1 Cleaning
For cleaning, use a moist cloth to wipe the housing from the outside only. For maintenance of
the sight glass, please use a clean and lint free cloth. Do not use any kind of cleaning sprays
or liquids.
7.2 Maintenance interval
There is a maintenance interval of less than 10,000 hours of operation are observed. If the
flame detector operated at temperatures > 50 °C, the maintenance interval is shortened
considerably.
7.3 Safety check
A safety check of flame monitoring must be carried out during every commissioning and
maintenance of the furnace because the UV tube subjects a natural aging and the end of its
life causes problems. Here the following steps should be checked:
Dabei sollten folgende Schritte überprüft werden:
• The attempt to start the burner flame detector is darken -> after the end of the safety time
into lock indicate a fault!
• The attempt to start the burner‘s flame detector with an external UV radiation, eg lighter or
gas flame (ambient lighting is not sufficient) to illuminate - must -> go into lock during the
pre-ventilation mode!
• The operation of the burner flame detector is darken -> depending on type of control box-
rung must either by executing a restart attempt at the end of the safety time or immediately
after darkening the burner indicate a fault!
7.4 Behavior in case of malfunction
In case of malfunctioning of the flame sensor must be replaced, and send back to the ma-
nufacturer for check. Precaution after crossing the tube service life of 10,000 h should the UV
tube be replaced by the manufacturer or by authorized personnel. IFC 10 is a safety compo-
nent and may not be opened!
Do not scratch the glass!
