3.2.7 Checking combustion efficiency
In order to check combustion efciency, turn no. 5 knob fully clockwise and completely open one or two domestic hot water taps so
that the boiler will operate at max. output.
3.2.7.1 Coaxial pipe system
In order to verify combustion performance the following measurements must be implemented:
- Measure air temperature (from no. 1 opening shown in pic. 16A for sealed chamber boilers with prearranged openings).
- Measure ue gas temperature and CO
2
concentration (from no. 2 opening shown in pic. 16A for sealed chamber boilers with prear-
ranged openings).
Perform measurements while the boiler is operating at working temperature.
Once the above procedure is completed, close the domestic hot water taps and position no. 5 knob (pic. 1) to the desired setting.
3.2.7.2. Split pipe system
In order to determine combustion performance the following measurements must be implemented:
- Measure air temperature (from no. 2 opening shown in pic. 16B for sealed chamber boilers with prearranged openings).
- Measure ue gas temperature and CO
2
concentration (from no. 1 opening shown in pic. 16B for sealed chamber boilers with prear-
ranged openings).
Perform measurements while the boiler is operating at working temperature.
Once the above procedure is completed, close the domestic hot water taps and position no. 5 knob (pic. 1) to the desired setting.
