DIGITAL  IGNITION  AND  FLAME  CONTROL 
SYSTEMS FOR HOT AIR GENERATORS (TYPE 
TC340A  –  TC340P)  AND  FOR  MODULATING 
PREMIX BURNERS (TYPE TC340P1) 

 

 

 
 
 
DESCRIPTION 
These  systems  are  specifically  designed  for  safety  cycle  control 
and  temperature  adjustment  in  hot  air  generators  equipped  with 
automatic-ignition  fan-assisted  gas  burners  and  in  modulating 
premix burners. 
 
GENERAL FEATURES 
The systems are provided with the following important features:

automatic gas burner control and flame monitoring systems); 

− 

CE approval according to Gas Appliance Directive 90/396/EEC 
and following amendments (Directive 93/68/EEC); 

− 

suitable for both phase-phase and phase-neutral power supply 
systems; 

− 

non-polarized  flame  signal  amplifier  (the  power  supply  polarity 
may  not  be  respected  even  in  case  of  a  phase-phase  power 
supply network); 

−

phase-cut driver; 

− 

control of the burner motor by means of a phase-cut driver (for

(for premix gas burner appliances equipped with brushless fan 
with integrated management electronics); 

− 

two  independent  safety  contacts  for  driving  the  EV1  main 
solenoid gas valve;

assisted appliances); 

− 

output  for  the  control  of  an  auxiliary  electronic  ignition 
transformer; 

− 

prearranged  for  the  control  of  the  EV2  second  valve  stage  by 
means  of  two  independent  contacts  taking  the  power  supply 
from  the  EV1  first  valve  stage  (version  for  fan-assisted 
appliances); 

− 

burner  power  modulation  by  means  of  a  current  modulator 
(version  for  fan-assisted  appliances)  or  through  a  PWM  signal 
(version for premix appliances); 

− 

possible  interfacing  with  a  BRAHMA  digital  chronothermostat 
type  ENCRONO  GA1  through  OpenTherm™  communication 
protocol, or with a power-free contact room thermostat; 

− 

possible  interfacing  with  additional  TC340  devices  for 
“cascade" 

applications 

(OpenTherm™ 

communication 

protocol); 

− 

summer  ventilation  function  (only  in  connection  with  BRAHMA 
chronothermostat type ENCRONO GA1); 

− 

control  of  a  BRAHMA  double  NTC  temperature  probe  type 
ST16  with  outlet  air  temperature  adjustment  and  safety 
functions; 

− 

control  of  a  BRAHMA  double  NTC  temperature  probe  type 
ST08 with outlet air temperature adjustment functions; 

− 

possible control of a safety thermostat; 

− 

prearranged  to  control  a  BRAHMA  NTC  temperature  probe 
type  ST07  with  room  or  outside  temperature  adjustment 
functions; 

− 

possible connection to a fire damper contact (optional); 

− 

possible  application  in  modulating  premix  burners  equipped 
with three-point adjuster or adjustment thermostat; 

− 

possible  application  in  appliances  provided  with  0÷10V 
analogue signal adjustment (e.g. PLC); 

− 

on-board manual reset push-button; 

− 

operation status and failure signalling by a two-colour LED;
