4 .5 .4 Burner start-up attempts
Pilot burner
Parameter 10
This indicates the number of possible start-up attempts
of the burner.
In accordance with EN 746-2, three start-ups are per-
mitted in specific cases in the event of flame failure
during start-up, if the safety of the installation is not
impaired. Note the requirements of the Standards!
If no flame is detected during start-up, either a fault
lock-out is performed or further start-up attempts in
accordance with EN 746-2 occur.
Pursuant to NFPA 86, only one start-up attempt is per-
mitted in the event of flame failure during start-up. For
units approved by FM Approval (see type label), it is
only possible to select one start-up attempt.

If several start-up attempts are set and if the PFU de-
tects a flame failure during start-up, it closes valve V1
after the safety time t

has expired and attempts to
start up again. After the last programmed start-up at-
tempt has been completed, the burner control unit con-
ducts a fault lock-out. The display blinks and shows the
cause of the fault.
