3.
Use the air analysis point
(1)
to check for flue gas recir-
culation.
4.
Use a flue gas analyser.
5.
If you discover CO or CO
2
in the supply air, search for
the leak in the flue gas installation or for signs of flue
gas recirculation.
6.
Eliminate the damage properly.
7.
Check again whether the supply air contains any CO or
CO

.
8.
If you cannot eliminate the damage, do not start up the
product.
7.14.3 Checking the gas flow rate
The boiler is fitted with a multifunctional automatic gas valve
which ensures that the precise air/gas ratio is provided under
all operating conditions.
The gas flow rate has been set during production and does
not require adjustment. With the front casing fitted check the
gas flow rate of the boiler as follows:
▶
Start up the product with the check programme
P.01
.
▶
Ensure that maximum heat can be dissipated into the
heating system by turning up the room thermostat.
▶
Wait at least 5 minutes until the boiler has reached its
operating temperature.
▶
Ensure that all other gas appliances in the property are
turned off.
▶
Measure the gas flow rate at the gas meter.
▶
Compare the measured values with the corresponding
values in the table.

Condition
: Gas flow rate not in the permissible range
▶
Check all of the piping and ensure that the gas flow rates
are correct.
▶
Only put the product into operation once the gas flow
rates have been corrected.
Condition
: Gas flow rate in the permissible range
▶
End the check programme
P.01
.
▶
Allow the boiler to cool down by allowing pump overrun to
operate for a minimum of 2 minutes.
▶
Record the boiler maximum gas flow rate onto the
Benchmark gas boiler commissioning checklist.
