13.4 Draught Control Set-Up
13.4.1 Configuration
The draught control servomotor positions, and the stack pressure if using draught control is enabled, is set
during the burner commissioning procedure.
Due to softened error checking, it is recommended to use an industrial UNIC servomotor for the draught
channel; however, a small/large servomotor can be used for smaller applications. The servomotor will need
to be sized according to the torque requirements of the stack damper. If draught control is enabled in
expansion 82, then a Mk8 air pressure sensor is also required, part number MM80005.
For information on installing the draught servomotor and air pressure sensor, please see section 13.1. For
dimensions and technical specification for the draught servomotor, please refer to Autoflame Valves and
Servomotors manual.
The table below shows the MM terminals for the draught servomotor and Mk8 air pressure sensor.

When wiring the air pressure sensor, the screen is connected through the casing of the lead and through the
sensor; therefore, the flying lead should be connected to the MM without a screen. The screen should be
carried through until the connection to the MM; the screen should not be connected to the S terminal.
