FLAME FAILURE & SEQUENCE CONTROL – Satronic TMO 720-4 Burner Control 

 

  
The unit is designed to provide control and supervision for atomising oil burners of medium to large 
capacity. 
For safety reasons, at least one controlled shutdown must be provided within each 24-hour period of 
continuous operation. 
 

TMO 720

 

Loss of flame during operation results in immediate cancellation of fuel release, followed by direct lockout 
or repeat of start sequence if jumper 11 has been cut. 
Start without flame establishment causes cancellation of fuel release within 5 seconds of its initial release. 
Fuel is supplied only when all parts of the unit are functioning correctly.  All safety circuits are 
automatically checked before fuel is released. 
Failure of the mains supply always results in a normal start sequence on restoration of power.  if the control 
box is at lockout, failure of the mains supply does not cause it to reset. 
Stray light during the pre-purge phase leads to shutdown and lockout.

When a burner failure is encountered the box goes into lockout mode.  This is indicated by a red light, 
which displays within the lockout window of the control and is repeated at the lockout lamp on the panel 
facia. 
If a lockout situation occurs, the burner will not start until it is manually reset by pressing the lockout 
window on the control.  (The control can also be reset by the off/on/reset switch situated on the control 
panel facia). 
If the burner fails to fire and persists in locking out, 

no more than three attempts should be made

.  To do 

so may create a 

dangerous situation

When lockout occurs, the control can be reset immediately.  After the resetting (and also after the 
correction of a fault which resulted in a controlled shutdown, or after a mains failure) the sequence switch 
always runs through to  the start position, whereby 

only

 selected terminals receive voltage in accordance 

with the control program.  it is only then that the control unit programs a fresh burner start-up. 

Note:

  Do not press the lockout reset button (or remote reset switch) for more than 10 seconds. 

 
PLEASE NOTE

 

When the control box goes to lockout it is generally performing the function it is designed for.
