Adjusting the air and gas flow rates
To perform the adjustments, unscrew the fixing screws and remove the burner cover.
NOTE: the combustion analysis must be performed with the burner cover fitted!
Startup Output
The start-up heat output shall not exceed 120 kW (single stage burners) or 1/3 of nominal output (double-stage, progressive or fully
modulating burners). In order to comply with these requirements, burners are provided with butterfly valve and/or slow-opening safety
valve.
On double-stage, progressive or modulating burners, the low flame ouptut must be higher than the minimum ouptut quoted in the per-
formance curve (see “Measuring the gas pressure in the combustion head” on page 17).
Adjusting procedure
z
Check the phase and neutral position.
z
Check the proper earthening.
z
(Double-stage burners) Adjust the air and gas flow rates at the maximum output (“high flame”) first, by means of the air damper and
the valves group pressure stabiliser respectively.
z
Check that the combustion parameters are in the suggested limits.
z
Check the flow rate measuring it on the counter or, if it was not possible, verifying the combustion head pressure by means of a dif-
ferential pressure gauge, as described on par. “Measuring the gas pressure in the combustion head” on page 17.
z
(Double-stage burners) Set, now, the low flame output, acting on the low flame actuator microswitch in order to avoid the low flame
output increasing too much or that the flues temperature gets too low to cause condensation in the chimney.
ATTENTION: before starting the burner up, be sure that the manual cutoff valves are open and check that the pres-
sure upstream the gas train complies the value quoted on paragraph “Technical specifications”. Be sure that the
mains switch is closed.
ATTENTION: During commissioning operations, do not let the burner operate with insufficient air flow (danger of
formation of carbon monoxide); if this should happen, make the gas decrease slowly until the normal combustion
values are achieved.
WARNING: NEVER LOOSE THE SEALED SCREWS! OTHERWISE, THE DEVICE WARRANTY WILL BE IMMEDIA-
TELY INVALIDATE!
IMPORTANT! the combustion air excess must be adjusted according to the in the following chart:
