OPERATION 

After installing and completion of pilot start up and tests 

SP-48-NG/PG-ND 

is ready for operation. 

General description of activities performed by the burner/boiler control system or manually by operator: 

 9.1  Preparation the furnace/boiler for firing up. 

 9.2  Opening of air to the burner and pilot. 

 9.3  Preparation of gas installation for operation. 

 9.4   Setting the gas pressure at the right level. 

 9.5  Starting of pilot trial for ignition sequence performed by the controller or in some cases by the operator: 

a)

The correct setting of the main burner combustion air, 

b)

Checking the interlock conditions before firing up, 

c)

Providing power to the ignition source, 

d)

Optionally, carrying out the gas line leakage test, 

e)

Closing the purge valves and opening of gas shut off valves, 

f)

The ignition should take place within the time specified by the standards, which should be confirmed by 
the relay output of the flame detector, 

g)

Electrical  igniter power off  after  confirming  the  presence  of  the pilot  flame,  closing  the pilot  shut off 
valves (in case of continuous pilot operation they stay open), 

h)

In case of the absence of the flame after trial for ignition - the valves are closed and electrical igniter is 
switched off, 

i)

Eventual  repeating  of  trial  for  ignition  sequence  (depends  on  the  application).  Details  of  sequence, 
timing is dependent on application and applicable standards. 

In the case of the manually controlled gas pilot the operator has to close the gas supply to the pilot by himself at the 
right time if the flame is not detected. 

10. 

SERVICE, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS 

To remove the pilot for inspection or repair the gas and electrical supply has to be shut off first. Check that the gas 
shut off valve is closed and that the power for ignition device is disconnected. 

WARNING

DO  NOT  PERFORM  ANY  MODIFICATIONS  TO  THIS  EQUIPMENT 

AND  NEVER  USE  UNAUTHORIZED  SPARE  PARTS AS  THIS WOULD  RESULT  IN 
A  BREACH  OF  THE  ATEX  CERTIFICATES  CONDITIONS  AND  COULD  PROVE 
HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH AND LIFE ! 

WARNING:   

WHEN  THE  HEATER/BOILER  IS  IN  OPERATION,  DURING  SERVICE 

WORKS  ON  BURNER  INSTALLATION,  ALWAYS  USE  PROTECTIVE  CLOTHING, 
GLOVES AND GOGGLES! 

REMARK:  

EVERY 12 MONTHS MAKE AN INSPECTION OF AIR TUBE.  IF YOU SEE 

ANY  TRACES  OF  EXCESSIVE  TEMPERATURE  DURING  OPERATION,  INCREASE 
THE  COOLING-COMBUSTION  AIR  FLOW  OR  RETRACT  THE  GAS  PILOT  A  LITTLE 
FROM  THE  COMBUSTION  CHAMBER.    IF  INCREASING  THE  AMOUNT  OF  AIR, 
REMEMBER THAT IT MAY IMPACT THE FLAME QUALITY.
