When heating up for the first time, for example, 
vapours may be emitted from seals or coatings 
which may cause unpleasant odours.

  

  All valves of the installation must be checked for 

tightness before ignition.

Coarse adjustment with the furnace cold

 

Coarse adjustment of the air volumes, see 
page 6 (Preparing commissioning).

  

 Limit the maximum gas volume.

 

Open the restrictor around halfway.

  

 Open the gas supply.

 4 

 Ignite the burner.

 

The safety time of the automatic burner control 

unit starts to elapse.

 5 

 Check and adjust the gas and air pressures.

 6 

  If no flame is formed, reset the automatic burner 

control unit, purge the combustion chamber and 
ignite the burner again.

 

The burner ignites and proceeds to normal op-

eration.

 

 If no flame is formed after repeating steps 

5

 and 

6

 multiple times – see page 13 (Assistance in 

the event of malfunction).

 7 

  Check the differential pressures ∆p

gas

 and ∆p

air

 

and the negative flue gas pressure p

FG

, and set 

them to their desired values.

 

The gas, air and motive air settings affect each 

other. We recommend reading these pressures 
at the same time.

 

Check the settings by conducting a flue gas 
analysis (in the flue gas connector in the case of 
an indirect heating system or in the furnace in the 
case of a direct heating system). Ensure that the 
furnace pressure is positive for a direct heating 
system to avoid falsification of the measurements 
by infiltrated air.

Tightness test

 DANGER

To ensure that there is no danger resulting from a 

leak, check the gas connections on the burner for 
leaks immediately after the burner has been put 
into operation.

8

Fine adjustment with a hot furnace

 

Final adjustment of the burner should be carried 
out at maximum furnace temperature and high 
capacity demand.

 9 

 Heat the furnace. 

 0 

 Watch the furnace pressure and O

2

 value in the 

furnace atmosphere. Avoid negative pressure 
and substoichiometric operation of the burner. If 

necessary, adjust the settings of the combustion 
air and motive air.

  

 Check the differential pressures ∆p

gas

 and ∆p

air

 

and the negative flue gas pressure p

FG

 at max. 

furnace temperature, and adjust them using the 
appropriate restrictor.

Check the settings by conducting a flue gas 
analysis (in the flue gas connector or eductor in 
the case of an indirect heating system or in the 
furnace in the case of a direct heating system). 
Ensure that the furnace pressure is positive for 
a direct heating system to avoid falsification of 
the measurements by infiltrated air.

 DANGER

Risk of explosion and poisoning in case of 
burner adjustment with an air deficiency!

 Ad-

just 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! Conduct a flue gas analysis.

  

 Watch the furnace pressure at high capacity 

demand and various furnace temperatures to 
optimize the motive air setting. 

 

The furnace pressure should be slightly posi-

tive in all operating states (0.1 to 0.3 mbar). 
If the positive pressure exceeds approx. 
0.3  mbar, increase the flue gas extraction 
rate to prevent the burner being damaged. 
If there is a negative pressure in the furnace 
chamber, reduce the flue gas extraction rate to 
avoid infiltrated air.

Blocking and recording the settings
  

 Produce a measurement report.

 4 

 Remove the measuring devices and close off 

the test nipples – tighten the grub screws.

 5 

 Block and seal the adjusting elements.

 6 

  Induce a flame failure, e.g. by pulling the plug off 

the ionization electrode. The flame detector must 
close the gas safety valve and signal a fault.

 7 

  Switch the system on and off several times while 

monitoring the automatic burner control unit.

 8 

 Produce an acceptance report.

 DANGER

An incorrect change of the burner settings may 

change the gas/air ratio and lead to unsafe oper-
ating conditions. Risk of explosion in case of CO 
being formed in the furnace chamber! CO is odour-
less and poisonous!
