The following features of the LAL afford a high level of safety: 
  Detector and flame simulation test are restarted on completion of the afterburn time 
«t13». Open or not fully closed fuel valves immediately initiate lockout at the end of 
afterburn time «t13». The test ends on completion of the prepurge time «t1» of the 
next startup sequence 
  The correct functioning of the flame supervision circuit is automatically checked 
during each burner startup sequence 
  The control contacts for the release of fuel are checked to ensure they have not 
welded postpurge time «t6» 
  A built-in unit fuse protects the control contacts against overloads
