you want to ad just the maximum capaci-

ty  of  the  boiler  to  the  requirements  of

the thermal system, search for the pres-

sure as indicated on the diagram shown

in  fig. 13.

– If  using  LPG  (G30/G31),  the  maximum

pr essur e  nut  (1  f ig.  11/a)  mus t  be

screwed  in  almost  as  far  as  it  will  go  to

turn  off  gas  valve  regulation.  Adjust  the

r egulat or  ups tr eam  of  the  boiler  t o

obtain  the  required  supply  pressure

(point 1.3) and therefore maximum burn-

er pressure. 

– Regulate  the  minimum  pressure  only

after having adjusted the maximum one.

– Turn off the supply power to the modulator.

– Turn  the  screw  (2)  in  order  to  search  for

the minimum pressure indicted in 

Table 3

.

– Turn  the  boiler  on  and  off  several  times

in order to check that the maximum and

minimum  pressure  corresponds  to  the

preset  values;  correct  the  regulations  if

required.

– Adjust,  and  make  sure  that  you  have

restored the power to the modulator.

– Put  the  pipe  back  on  the  valve  VENT

pressure test point.

– Remove  the  manometer,  remembering

to tighten the screw for closing the pres-

sure test point (4 fig. 11).

– Put the plastic cap (3) back on the modu-

lator  and  seal  with  a  drop  of  coloured

sealant if necessary.

CLEANING AND 

MAINTENANCE

Scheduled maintenance of the generator 

is carried out each year by qualified person-

nel. Follow the procedure listed below:

– Clean  the  gaps  of  the  boiler  casing  by

moving  the  relevant  swab  up  and  down

inside the gaps.

– Clean  the  principal  burner  and  wipe  the

scale off from the electrodes.

– Check  t he  combus tion  pr oduct  dis-

charge system.

– Check  appliance  start-up,  shutdown  and

operation.

– After  assembly,  all  the  gas  connections

mus t  be  seal  t es t ed  by  using  soapy

water  or  any  other  suitable  product,

avoiding the use of open flames.

4.5

FAULT FINDING

The principal burner does not start.

– Check if power is supplied to the gas valve

enabling  device;  check  its  operation  and

replace it if required.

–  Check flue gas pressure switch operation.

– The  fan  works  but  with  less  revolutions

and  therefore  it  does  not  enable  the  flue

gas pressure switch, replace it.

The  principal  burner  does  not  burn  prop-

erly: flame too high, yellow flame.

– Make  sure  that  the  gas  pressure  of  the

burner is regular.

–  Make sure that the burners are clean.

The  boiler  works  at  the  maximum  C.H.

output.

– Check the calibration value of the heating

pressure.

– Make  sure  that  the  coil  assembled  on

the  valve  is  not  interrupted,  replace  it  if

required.

The  radiators  heat  up  even  during  the

summer.

– Check  that  the  check  valve  seat  is  free

from impurities.

–  Replace the check valve if faulty.

–  Assemble  a  check  valve  on  the  system

return pipes.

The  radiators  do  not  heat  up  during  the

winter.

– The  room  stat  has  been  regulated  too

low or is faulty and needs to be replaced.

–  The  electrical  connections  of  the  room

stat have not been carried out properly.

–  The  circulation  pump  of  the  system  is

stopped, release it.

The  safety  valve  of  the  boiler  intervenes

too often.

– Check  that  the  cold  system  is  not  filled

up  too  high,  refer  to  the  recommended

values.

–  Check the system valve if it is not-calibrat-

ed replace it.

–  Check  the  expansion  vessel  pre-inflating

pressure.

–  Replace the expansion vessel if needed.

The  boiler  works  but  the  temperature

does not rise.

– Check  that  gas  consumption  is  not  less

than the one foreseen.

–  Make sure that the boiler is clean.

–  Make sure that the capacity of the boiler

is suitable for the system.

The  fan  works  but  the  burner  does  not

start.

– Check  and  if  needed  remove  impurities

and  condensate  from  the  connection

pipes of the flue gas pressure switch.

– Needs  to  be  calibrated  again  or  even  it

will  be  even  better  to  replace  the  flue

gas pressure switch with a new one that

has been calibrated in the factory.

The fan does not start.

– Check  if  the  starting  motor  terminals

are live.

– The  electrical  winding  of  the  starting

motor is burnt and needs to be replaced.
