10.1  INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

 

SP-32-

NG/PG-

ND

 pilot because of simple design does not require complicated maintenance procedures.

 

Checking and cleaning of air and gas tubes:

 

a) 

 Close the manual gas valve and disconnect the pilot gas line.  

b) 

 Disconnect the ignition rod electric supply cable. 

c)    Unscrew the mounting ring.

 

d) 

Loose the adjusting sleeve locking thumb screw as it may block the stabilizer plate during slide out.  Then 
carefully slide out the gas part assembly from the air tube.

 

e)    Check the ignition rod at least every 12 months. For checking and standard service do not remove the rod 

from the gas part. Follow the igniter User’s Manual. 
Pull out 

the electrical igniter only if it is absolutely necessary e.g. when rod is worn or damaged and has to 

be repaired or replaced.  Before that, loose the ignition rod holding gland and then follow p. 7.2. 

 

Unscrew the rod tip before pulling out rod from the gas part and holding gland for easier slide without any 
jamming. 

f)    Check and clean the bleed and main orifices.  For cleaning use a soft copper wire. 

g) 

To remove heavy dirt use a soft wire brush e.g. copper wire brush. 

h) 

Blow compressed air through the whole gas part assembly.  

i) 

To  check  the  air  tube  condition  loose  the  mounting  tube  clamp  assembly  screws  and  pull  out  air  tube. 
Check for overheating traces and clean it. 

j) 

Assemble all the elements back to obtain the original configuration. 

Checking of ignition device:

 

k) 

C

heck the complete 

ignition device at least every 12 months. Follow instructions in its User's Manual. 

10.2  TROUBLESHOOTING

 

If the gas pilot does not operate correctly check the following:

 

a) 

All manual gas valves on gas supply line were open and there is gas available.

 

b) 

All valves in the supply line are functioning properly. 

c) 

The preset gas pressure is correct.

 

d) 

Is there a significant influence of external conditions on the amount of air supplied to the pilot.

 

e) 

Gas supply lines are clear - check strainers.  

f) 

Bleed and main orifices in orifice-stabilizer assembly are clear

.

 

 

g) 

Electric  ignition  device  is  working  properly  and  its  rod  correctly  positioned  in  gas  part  assembly.  
If it is not working properly - follow the ignition device manual.

 

h) 

The power parameters for ignition device are correct.

 

If the gas lights but the flame is unstable, or goes out when main burner goes into operation, check that:

 

i) 

The gas pressure does not drop during pilot light-off (trial for ignition).  

j) 

There is no significant interference of the air flow around the pilot

 

k) 

The air from the main burner does not blow off the pilot flame or does not move it out of the field of view 
of the flame scanner (if applied). 

l) 

Flame safeguard system works correctly and the flame is not obscured.

 

Improper  operation  of  the  whole  installation  requires  the  detailed  checking  of  the  power  line  and  all 
components, including any temporary use of override switches or jumpers.

 

Be aware of all connections to be later restored to normal state, to allow safe operation. 

 

11.  SPARE PARTS,  WARRANTY CONDITIONS 

11.1
