For the production serial number, refer to the technical data plate of the boiler.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

• This booklet constitutes an integral and essential part of the product and should be supplied to the installer. Read the instructions contained in this booklet carefully as they give important directions regarding the safety of installation, use and maintenance. Preserve this booklet with care for any further consultation. The installation of the burner must be carried out in compliance with current regulations, according to the instructions of the manufacturer and by qualified personnel. An incorrect installation can cause injury or damage to persons, animals and objects, for which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.

• This appliance should only be used for the purpose it has been designed for. Any other use is to be considered improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be considered responsible for any damages caused by improper, erroneous or unreasonable use.

• Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the appliance from the power supply, by using the main system switch or through the appropriate interception devices.

• In case of failure and/or malfunctioning, switch off the equipment and refrain from trying any repair or direct intervention. Call in qualified personnel only. Any repair must be carried out by a servicing center authorized by the manufacturing
  firm, one using original replacements exclusively. Non-observance of the above could compromise the safety of the appliance. In order to guarantee the efficiency of the appliance and its proper operation it is indispensable to keep to the manufacturer’s directions, by ensuring the periodical servicing of the appliance is carried out by professionally qualified personnel.

• As soon as one decides not to use the appliance further, one should take care to render innocuous those parts liable to be potential sources of danger.

• The transformation from a gas (natural gas or liquid gas) to a gas of another group must be made exclusively by qualified personnel.

• Before starting up the burner ask qualified personnel to check:

  1. that the data on the information plate corresponds to that required by the gas, and electrical supply networks;
  2. that the calibration of the burner is compatible with the boiler output;
  3. that the comb rent air flow and the fumes evacuation take place properly in accordance with the regulations in force.
  4. that correct aeration and maintenance are possible.

• After each reopening of the gas cock wait a few minutes before restarting the burner.

• Before carrying out whatever intervention which foresees the dismantling of the burner or the opening of any of the accesses for inspection, disconnect the electrical current and close off the gas cocks.

• Do not deposit containers of inflammable substances in the location where the burner is situated.

• On noticing the smell of gas do not touch any electrical switch. Open all doors and windows. Shut off the gas cocks. Call qualified personnel.

• The room where the burner is located must have the openings required by local regulations in force. Should you have any doubts as to the circulation of the air in the room, then you should first measure the CO2 value with the burner working at its maximum delivery and with the room ventilated solely by means of the openings that feed air to the burner; a second CO2 measurment should then be taken with the door open. The CO2 value should not vary very much from the first to the second reading. Should there be more than one burner and one fan in the same room, then this test must be carried out with all the appliances working at the same time.

• Never cover up the burner room’s air vents, the burner’s fan’s air-intake openings or any existing air ducts or air gratings, thus avoiding:

  • the formation of poisonous/explosive mixtures of gases in the burner room;
  • combustion with insufficient air, which would be dangerous, costly and cause pollution.

• The burner must at all times be protected from rain, snow and freezing.

• The room where the burner is housed should be kept clean at all times, and there should be no volatile substances in the vicinity, substances which could be sucked into the fan and could block up the internal ducts of the burner or combustion head. Dust can be extremely harmful, particularly when it gets onto the fan blades as this can reduce ventilation and lead to pollution during combustion. Dust can also build up on the rear of the flame stability disk inside the combustion head, leading to a poor air-fuel mixture.

• The burner must be fed with the type of fuel for which it was designed, as indicated on the data plate and in the technical characteristics given in this manual. The fuel feed line must be sealed and must be of the rigid variety, with an interposed metal expansion coupling with either a flange joint or a threaded joint. Furthermore, the feed line must be equipped with all the adjustment and safety devices required by the local regulations in force. Particularly ensure that no foreign bodies get into the feed line during installation.

• Ensure that the electrical power supply used conforms to the technical characteristics indicated on the data plate and in this manual. The burner must be connected to an effective system earthed in accordance with the current regulations. Should there be any doubts, the verification should be made by qualified persons.

• Never exchange neutral and phase wires.

• The burner can be connected up to the mains supply using a plug connection only if the latter is of the kind that does not allow neutral and phase wires to be reversed. Install a main switch for the heating system on the control panel, as required by current regulations.

• The entire electrical system, and in particular cable cross-sections, should conform to the maximum absorbed capacity indicated on the appliance data plate and in this manual.

• Should the burner’s mains cable be found faulty, it must only be replaced by qualified persons.

• Do not touch the burner with parts of the body which are wet or when in bare feet.

• Do not pull (stretch) the mains cables and keep them well away from heat sources.

• The length of the cables used must enable the burner to be opened, as well as the boiler door.

• The electrical connections must be made exclusively by qualified experts and the relative regulations in force must be scrupulously applied.

• After removing the packaging materials, check the content integrity and make sure that no damages have occurred during transportation. In case of doubt, do not use the burner and contact the supplier. The packaging material (wooden cages, cartons, plastic bags, foam, clips, etc…) are potential sources of pollution and danger, if left lying around; they should be collected up and disposed of in the correct way (in a suitable place).

DESCRIPTION

These are forced-draught burners, with gas/air mix at the combustion head, in a single ignition stage.
The burners are com-pletely automatic and equipped with controls assuring maximum safety.
They can be combined with any type of chamber whether in negative or positive pressure, within the foreseen working range.
The burners are supplied without a gas train and must therefore be completed with the train most suitable for the system in which the burner is to be fitted.
The gas train is therefore chosen by consulting the diagram (pages 29-40); this illustrates pressure loss as a function of mains gas pressure, required gas delivery at the appliance and the back-pressure in the combustion chamber.
All the components can be easily inspected without having to disconnect from the main gas supply.
The burners are equipped with a cover which means they are particularly compact, soundproof and safeguarded.

DIMENSIONS mm

• The dimensions refer to a burner with a 20 mbar gas train fitted.

ASSEMBLY ONTO THE BOILER

Fix flange 2 to the boiler using 4 screws 3 interposing the insulation gasket 4 and the possible insulating cord 5. Insert the burner in the flange so that the draught tube penetrates into the combustion chamber by the length suggested by the boiler manufacturer. Tighten screw 1 to lock the burner in position.

FLAME DIMENSIONS

• A Flame diameter
• B Flame length
• C Test tube diameter
• D Test tube length

The dimensions are indicative only being influenced by:

• excessive quantity of air;
• combustion chamber shape;
• development of gas path in the boiler (direct/reverse);
• combustion chamber pressure.

ELECTRODES ADJUSTMENT

Two ignition electrodes and a control electrode have been fitted.
They should be positioned according to the indications supplied in the figure below.

IMPORTANT: the ignition electrodes and the control electrode must never touch the diffuser, the draught tube or other metallic parts.
If this were to happen they would no longer work, thus impairing operation of the burner itself.

The position of the electrodes should always be checked after any work on the combustion head.

GAS CONNECTION
The system must be equipped with all the accessories required by current regulations.
We recommend the following: always include a filter, do not apply mechanical strain to the components and, therefore install a flexible joint as well as a pressure stabilizer and an interception cock at the heating system inlet.
The pipes must be laid using rigid pipes.
Any exile pipes must be type approved.
Also bear in mind the necessary space required for carrying out maintenance operations on the burner and the boiler.
After fitting the valve unit on the burner, check that there are no gas leaks during the first ignition stage.

ADJUSTMENTS

COMBUSTION HEAD ADJUSTMENT EM 16
Adjust the combustion head by acting on the screw A according to the indications shown on the index.

COMBUSTION HEAD ADJUSTMENT EM 26

• Loosen the knobs B.
• Acting on these modifies the position of the draught tube with respect to the combustion head. Lining knobs up with values 1, 2 or 3 gives minimum, medium and maximum burner delivery respectively.
• Once adjustment has been completed tighten the knobs B.

COMBUSTION AIR ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment of combustion air is effected from the outside of the cover. After loosening screw C act on air adjustment screw D refer to the label.
Once adjustment has been completed tighten screw C.

GAS VALVE ADJUSTMENT
The maximum delivery and the start up delivery must be set.

MAXIMUM DELIVERY ADJUSTMENT

• Assemble a gauge to measure the gas pressure at the burner head.
• Open the gas valve to the maximum.
• While the burner is working, act on the stabilizer until the required delivery is reached (read the meter): read the pressure value on the gauge.
• Act on the valve adjustment by turning the valve towards off until the pressure on the gauge just hints at decreasing. At this point the maxi-mum delivery required is set and controlled by both the stabilizer and the gas valve.

2. Delivery adjustment
3. Stabilizer adjustment
4. Locking screw

After loosening screw 4, turn the locknut 2 clockwise to obtain minimum delivery, anticlockwise for maximum delivery.
Once adjustment is completed block screw 4 again.

CHECKING THE QUANTITY OF GAS AT IGNITION
To check the quantity of gas at ignition, apply the following formula:

• Ts x Qs ≤ 100
• where Ts = Safety time in seconds
• Qs = Energy freed in safety time expressed in kW

The Qs value is obtained from:

• where Q1 = delivery expressed in liters freed in no. 10 startups in safety time.
• Ts1 = total safety time of 10 startups
• Qn = Rated output

To obtain Q1 , proceed as follows:

• Detach the lead from the control electrode (ionization electrode).

• Read the gas meter before the test.

• Perform 10 burner startups; these correspond to 10 safety lock-outs. Read the gas meter again; by subtracting the first reading, the Q1 value is obtained.
  Example:

  • First reading 00006,682 liters
  • Final reading 00006,947 liters
  • total Q1 00000,265 liters

• By performing these operations, we can and Ts1 by timing no. 1 startup (safety lock-outs) by the no. of startups.
  Example:

  • Actual safety time = 1”95
  • Ts1 = 1”95 x 10 = 19”5

• If, at the end of this checkup, the value is above 100, regulate the opening speed of the main valve.

CALIBRATION OF AIR PRESSURE SWITCH
The air pressure switch places the burner in safety mode or shuts it down should there be a drop in combustion air pressure. It will be calibrated at a pressure below 1st stage rated-flow on-burner air pressure, checking that CO values do not exceed 10,000 p.p.m..

CALIBRATION OF MINIMUM GAS PRESSURE SWITCH
The minimum gas pressure switch serves to prevent the burner from being started up or to shut it down if the gas pressure falls below the minimum required level. This setting should be 40% lower than the gas pressure obtained with the burner operating at maximum delivery.

PRESSURE SWITCH

• Type: LGW 3 A2
  • LGW 3 A2P
  • LGW 10 A2P
  • GW 150 A2
  • GW 150 A5
• Remove the cover and adjust dial A

CHECKING CONTROL BOX IONIZATION CURRENT
The minimum value of 3 μA should be observed, and large oscillations are to be avoided.

CHECKING COMBUSTION
In order to obtain optimum combustion efficiency and to safeguard the environment, we recommend to check, and regulate combustion using the appropriate instruments.

The most important levels to be checked are:

• CO 2. The level of CO indicates the excess of air during combustion. If the quantity of air is increased, then the CO 2% level decreases, while a decrease in combustion air leads to an increase in CO2. Acceptable values would be: 8.5-10% METHANE, 11-12% B/P.
• CO. This indicates the presence of unburnt gas. CO, as well as lowering the combustion efficiency, is also a danger, being a poisonous gas. The presence of CO is thus an indication of imperfect combustion, and is usually a sign that there is a lack of air during combustion. Maximum acceptable value is CO = 0.1% volume.
• Flue gas temperature. This represents the loss of heat through the chimney. The higher is the temperature, the greater is the loss of heat and the lower is the combustion efficiency. If the temperature is too high, then it is necessary to decrease the amount of gas burnt. Acceptable temperature levels range between 160°C and 220°C.
• NOTE: Certain countries may have different regulations, and thus different admissible levels from those given above.

START UP
Check the position of the ignition electrode tips and the position of the control electrode. Check the correct operation of the gas and air pressure switches. When the thermostatic line and the gas pressure switch close the control box gives consent for the motor to be started. During this period the control box conducts a self-test of its correct working order. If the test is positive then the cycle continues and at the end of the pre-purge period (TPR – combustion chamber purge) the consent is given to the transformer for the spark at the electrodes, and to the solenoid valve for opening.
Within the safety time (TS) flame stabilization should occur, otherwise the system goes in lock-out mode.

PROLONGED SWITCHING OFF
If the burner should remain inactive at length close the gas cock and remove the electrical current from the appliance.

OPERATION WITH DIFFERENT TYPES OF GAS

CONVERSION FROM NATURAL GAS TO B/P
