4.0 Servicing
Warning
It is a requirement that only qualified
personnel are allowed to carry out
installation commissioning or servicing.
In addition only spare parts recommended
by the manufacturer may be fitted, and the
installer should provide a list of
recommended spare parts that are available
through the manufacturer or his agent (see
section 8).
Before commencing any maintenance or
servicing work the heater must be shut
down and allowed to cool, and have the gas
and electric supplies to it turned off at the
supply cock and isolator respectively.
Always test for gas soundness after
completing any service work particularly
if this has necessitated the removal and /
or replacement of gas carrying
components.
It is advisable that routine inspections are
carried out on a frequent basis, servicing
must also be carried out regularly, and in
accordance with the manufacturers
recommendations i.e. at a maximum interval
of one year. In certain applications the
frequency of servicing will have to be
increased, this to a large extent is governed
by the working environment, and both the
manufacturer and the installer will be able to
offer further advice.
Clean all accessible surfaces including the
outside of the tubular heat exchanger by
removal of the rear panel.
Check for panel damage and that all
fasteners are present and secure.
Visually check all electrical wiring for signs
of damage, possibly through contact with
hot surfaces, check conduit for signs of
chaffing and for security . Check all
terminals are secure and free from
escaped / stray conductor strands.
4.1 Servicing procedure - major
component parts
Heat exchanger
Remove rear panel and carry out visual
inspection of the tubular heat exchanger
using an inspection lamp and mirror.
Check seams and joints for perforations.
Check for severe corrosion and splits in the
heat exchanger.
Check that there are no blockages and that
there is not an excessive build up of soot
within the heat exchanger tubes.
If required remove the burner manifold
allowing access for cleaning, with a flexible
flue brush and vacuum cleaner.
Warning
If the heat exchanger is found to
be perforated the heater must not be fired
until a replacement heat exchanger has
been fitted
Injectors and Manifold
Undo the gas pipe connection.
Remove the manifold fixing screws.
Remove the manifold and injector assembly
from the right hand side of the heater.
Check that the manifold is straight, the
injectors are correctly aligned, and that they
are clean, and that there are no
contaminates restricting the orifices, if
necessary clean carefully with compressed
air and or lint free cloth and acetone.
Caution
The injector orifice is precision machined to
fine tolerances, do not clean with hard sharp
or abrasive instruments. If the injectors have
been removed from the manifold, when they
are replaced, and care should be taken not
to over tighten.
Ensure all joints are gas tight.
Fan and Limit Thermostats
Open the front door, so as to gain access.
Remove securing screw from cover, remove
