The burner conti-
nues to repeat the
start-up cycle,
without lockout
The gas pressure in the gas mains lies
very close to the value to which the mini-
mum gas pressure switch has been set.
The sudden drop in pressure after valve
opening causes temporary opening of the
pressure switch itself, the valve immedia-
tely closes and the burner comes to a halt.
Pressure increases again, the pressure
switch closes again and the ignition cycle
is repeated. And so on
Reduce the minimum gas pres-
sure switch intervention pres-
sure. Replace the gas filter
cartridge.
