INSTRUCTIONS FOR DETERMINING THE CAUSE LEADING TO IRREGULARITIES IN THE OPE-
RATION AND THEIR ELIMINATION
IRREGULARITY
Appliance locks out due to no ame (red light
lit).The fault is in the ame control device.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
- Disturbance to ionization current from
the ignition transformer.
- Flame sensor (ionization probe) inef-
cient.
- Flame sensor (ionisation probe) position
incorrect.
- Ionization probe or relative ground
cable.
- Electrical connection cut-off by ame
sensor.
- Inefcient draught or fumes passage
blocked.
- Flame disk or combustion heads dirty or
worn.
- Equipment fault.
- No ionization.
REMEDY
- Invert the ignition transformer power
supply (230V side) and check using an
analogue micro-ammeter.
- Replace the ame sensor.
- Correct the position of the ame sensor,
and then check its efciency by con-
necting the analogue micro-ammeter.
- Check visually and using the instru-
ment.
- Restore the connection.
- Ensure that the boiler fumes passage
and chimney connection are free.
- Visually check and replace, if neces-
sary.
- Replace it.
- If the “earth” of the equipment is not
efcient, do not check the ionization
current.Check the efciency of the
“earth” at the terminal concerned in the
equipment and at the “earth” connection
of the electric system.
The burner goes into “lock-out”, gas ows,
but there is no ame (red light on).Fault in
ignition circuit.
- Fault in ignition circuit
- Ignition transformer cable discharges to
earth.
- Ignition cable disconnected.
- Ignition transformer is faulty.
- The distance between electrode and
ground is incorrect.
- Insulator dirty, so electrode discharges
to ground.
- Check the ignition transformer power
supply (230V) and high voltage circuit
(electrode to earth or isolator broken
under locking terminal).
- Replace it.
- Connect it.
- Replace it.
- Position it at the correct distance.
- Clean or change the insulator or electro-
de.
The burner goes into “lock-out”, gas ows,
but there is no ame (red light on).
- Air/gas ratio incorrect.
- Gas pipe has not been properly bled of
air (in the case of rst ignition).
- The gas pressure is insufcient or
excessive.
- Air ow between disk and head too
narrow.
- Correct the air/gas ratio (there is pro-
bably too much air or very little gas)
- Bleed the gas pipe again, with due
caution.
- Check the maximum gas pressure value
at the time of ignition (use a water pres-
sure gauge, if possible).
- Adjust the disk/head opening.
