CHECKING IONIZATION CURRENT
The minimum value of 30 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
. The level of CO

is increased, then the CO
in CO . Acceptable values would be between 8.5 and 10% NATURAL GAS , 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 tempera-
ture is too high, then it is necessary to decrease the amount of gas burnt. Acceptable temperature
levels range between 160° and 220°C.
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.
N.B. When the burner is started up, ensure that there are no leaks from the gas circuit.
NOTE: Certain countries may have different regulations, and thus different admissible
levels from those given above.
PROLONGED SWITCHING OFF
If the burner should remain inactive at length close the gas cock and remove the electrical current from the
appliance.
