EOLO MAIOR @

  - CHANGING TYPE OF GAS

Adaptation to a type of gas different to that for which the boiler is intended are standard and can be done
by using the special kits 

(natural gas or LPG).

The changeover consists in replacing the burner nozzles and in switching to the modulation board of the
“NATURAL GAS- LPG” (S1) bridge.
The minimum and maximum pressures are then set on the gas valve in the way described above.
Adjustment of the minimum and maximum output (

version 27 only

) during the heating phase and of

burner ignition pressure (

see table below

) can be done by means of the respective trimmers mounted on

the modulation board 

(see modulation board operation).
