 Start-up

6. In the programme [Emission Measurement] select the setting

[Base Load]

 (see chapter 15.2),

but do not confirm

.

Make sure the heat can dissipate into the heating network 
during emission measurement.

Ɣ

Use the flue gas analyser to check the burner settings and 
compare them with tab. 5-1 to tab. 5-3.

a) If the O

 concentrations lie within the permissible

values:

Î

No additional measures are required.

b) If the O

2

/CO

2

 concentrations lie outside the permissible

values:

Î

Carry out 100% calibration and adjust the [Drop Io-base] 
in such a way that the setting range is reached (see 
chapter 7.3.4) and repeat the measurement from step 5.

Ɣ

Document the measured values in the "Installation certifi-
cation" and in the operating manual.

7. End programme [Emission Measurement].

8. Set manual mode from the RoCon BF control (see operating

instructions "RoCon BF Control").

9. Check the resistance in the flue gas line (see chapter 4.5).

5.1.4 After start-up

Ɣ

Mount the sound insulation hood (see chapter 4.4.3).

Ɣ

Check all items on the "Checklist after start-up" (see
section 5.2).

Ɣ

Log the test results on the checklist.
Only when it is possible to answer 

all items

 on the checklist

with

Yes

, is it allowed to hand over the ROTEX GCU compact 

to the operator.

CAUTION!

The firing unit is programmed to take into 
account the ageing of the components. 

 

A 100 % calibration of the firing unit can have 
a negative impact on the above even if the 
exhaust setting values (tab. 5-1 to tab. 5-3) are 
adhered to.

Ɣ

Only carry out a calibration of the firing unit
when the exhaust setting values are not
adhered to, or when a mechanical change
was carried out, e.g. by replacing the
component with original ROTEX spare
parts.
