Combustion Analysis Procedure
1. Turn the main power off to the boiler by placing the
“On/Off” switch in the OFF position.
2. Turn the main power on to the boiler by placing the
“On/Off” switch in the ON position.
3. Place the boiler into the active position by pressing the
RIGHT SELECT [ON] key (see page 7).
4. Locate the pinhole button below the RESET button on
the display board (see page 7). Insert a thin wire (such
as a paper clip) into the hole and press the button once
and hold for 5 seconds to place the boiler into Service
Mode. In Service Mode the boiler will fire at ignition
speed and will then modulate up to full fire.
5. Insert the probe from a combustion analyzer into the
end of the flue pipe.
6. Once the boiler has modulated up to full fire, measure
the combustion. The values should be in the range
listed in Table 3-5 above. The CO levels should be less
than 150 ppm for a properly installed unit.
If the combustion is not within the specified range,
reference the chart below for possible causes and
corrective actions.

7. Once the combustion analysis is complete, test the safety
shutoff device by turning the manual shutoff switch to
the OFF position and ensuring that the boiler shuts
down and registers an alarm. Turn the manual shutoff
switch to the ON position, reset the control, and return
to Service Mode.
8. Turn the main power off to the boiler.
9. Place the boiler back into normal operation.
