Determines how long the full air flow will be supplied to
the combustion chamber before burner start.
Pre-purge removes non-combusted gases from the
combustion chamber.
The pre-purge time t
PV
starts once the actuator has sig-
nalled the Open position and the air pressure switch DL
contact has closed.
If “Pre-purge on each start-up” is deactivated (param-
eter 06 = 0), pre-purge is omitted on burner start after a
controlled shut-down within the last 24 hours.
If the pre-purge time t
PV
is set to 0 s, pre-purge is al-
ways omitted, e.g. even on restart after a safety shut-
down. The BCU carries out a quick start on each burner
start. The butterfly valve is moved to the Ignition posi-
tion via the Open position after controlled shut-down.
If tightness control is activated (BCU..D3, parameter
24 = 3), the pre-purge time t
PV
must be set to at least
the value of the test period (parameter 26).
The pre-purge time t
PV
is to be set on the basis of the
relevant application standard (e.g. EN 676, EN 746-2,
NFPA 85 or NFPA 86).
