7 - COMMISSIONING
IMPORTANT NOTE:
A combustion test point is provided on the front cleaning
door.
This test point is not suitable for measuring the final CO
2
level, smoke number, boiler efficiency or conventional
flue draught.
At this test point on the cleaning cover the flue gas
temperature reading will be higher than that measured in
the flue thus resulting in an inaccurate efficiency reading.
To obtain an accurate flue gas CO
2
level, smoke number,
temperature and efficiency, the reading can only be
measured at the low level flue terminal or the test point
on the conventional flue starter elbow where fitted with
all the casing panels fitted.
