The electronic combustion controller utilises the physi-
cal correlation between the level of the ionisation cur-
rent and the air ratio
λ
. The maximum ionisation cur-
rent is achieved at an air ratio of 1 for all gas qualities.
The ionisation signal is evaluated by the combustion
controller. The air ratio is regulated to a value between
λ
=1.24 to 1.44. This range provides for an optimum
combustion quality. Thereafter, the electronic gas train
regulates the required gas volume subject to the pre-
vailing gas quality.
To check the combustion quality, the CO
2
content or
the O
2
content of the flue gas is measured. The pre-
vailing air ratio is determined using the actual values.
The correlation between CO
2
or O
2
content and air
ratio
λ
is shown in the following table.

To achieve optimum combustion control, the system
regularly carries out an automatic self-calibration; also
after power failures (shutdown). For this, the combus-
tion is briefly regulated to maximum ionisation current
(corresponding to air ratio
λ
=1). Self-calibration takes
place shortly after the burner start and lasts for about
5 s. During calibration, higher than normal CO emis-
sions may occur briefly.
