stops
Short operating stop
If operation of the Elmaflame is stopped for a short period of
time the burner hand piece can be hooked into the holder
(delivered with the unit) with burning flame. Ensure that the
burner flame cannot ignite any flammable substances even if
the position of the burner tip changes. It may be safer to
extinguish the flame and to shut the burner valve at the hand
piece.
Always extinguish the flame and shut the burner hand piece
valve for prolonged operating stops. Switch off the gas
production at the key
Prolonged operating
stop
at the operating panel.
The unit now automatically switches into stand-by mode. In this
operating mode, the ventilation device cools down the principal
components reactor, rectifier and main transformer at reduced
speed, so that there is no risk of overheating. When the unit has
sufficiently cooled down, the control system automatically
switches off the ventilation device.
In stand-by operating mode with cooled-down unit the current
consumption is reduced to a minimum.
The unit must be switched off at the mains switch only for
prolonged operating stops (overnight, over the weekend, over
holiday periods).
Operating finished
If the unit is switched off at the mains switch after a prolonged
operating period, damages to the unit due to overheating are
possible.
NOTE
6.8
Extinction of the flame at the burner hand piece
When the gas pressure is adjusted correctly, the burner flame
does not touch the nozzle, there is a distance of several tenths
of millimetre between nozzle and flame. The nozzle tip remains
cold and in perfect condition.
When extinguishing the burner flame ensure that the flame
does not touch the nozzle. This may burn out and damage the
nozzle.
Reduce the flame at the burner hand piece valve; ensure that
the flame does not touch the nozzle tip. Blow out the flame.
Procedure A
Immerse the flame up to the burner tip into a glass of water for
a short period of time.
Procedure B
When the flame is extinguished shut the burner hand piece
valve!
