Maintenance

We recommend a function check every six months. 
If the media are highly contaminated, this interval 
should be reduced.

 DANGER

Maintenance work on the burner must be carried 
out by authorized trained personnel only.

Risk of explosion! 

Please observe the appropriate 

precautions when igniting the burner.

Risk of poisoning! 

Open the gas and air supply 

so that the burner is always operated with excess 
air – otherwise CO will form in the furnace chamber. 
CO is odourless and poisonous! A flue gas analysis 
is to be conducted.

Risk of burning!

 Outflowing flue gases and burner 

components are hot.

 

We recommend that all the seals removed during 

maintenance work be replaced. The appropriate 
seal set is available separately as a spare part.

  

 Check the ionization/ignition cable.

  

 Measure the ionization current.

 

The ionization current must be at least 5 µA and 

must not vary.

 

Read off the ionization signal on the burner con-
trol unit.

  

  Disconnect the system from the electrical power 

supply.

 4 

 Shut off the gas and air supply – do not change 

the restrictor settings.

 5 

 Disconnect the gas line from the gas insert.

 6 

 Disconnect the grounding cable.

Checking the ignition electrode and mixing 

device 

 

The complete gas insert must be removed to 

check the ignition electrode and mixing device.

 CAUTION
