4.1 - DETECTION LIMIT
The device must be capable of detecting a leakage rate of at least 50 dm
3
/h or 0.1% of the burner thermal output. Otherwise,
it must prevent ignition and opening of the burner valves.
4.2 - CALCULATING THE LEAKAGE RATE
The leakage rate can be calculated by using the following formulas:
System with 1 Pressure switch calibrated to P
i
/2:
• Valve leakage rate:
(P
i
– P
set
) x V
p
x 3600
V

=
P

System with 2 Pressure switches:
• Valve V

: Test time [s]
The test time is a fixed value set on the control board and is equal to 20”.
4.3 - TYPES OF OPERATION
The device can operate in three modes:
The type of operation is selected with the cursors of the deep-switch (3) on the side of the terminal board.
