This occurs when the position of live
and neutral has not been respected
on the terminal block. There is a
break in the wire of the sensing
electrode or the electrode itself is
earthed: the electrode is worn out
and needs replacing.
NOTE:
Should the equipment “lock out”,
first wait at least 20 seconds from
when the warning lamp lights up,
before pressing the push-button
with built-in light; otherwise, the
appliance will not be deblocked.
3.1.2 Ionization circuit
The ionization circuit is to be checked
using a dial-type micro-ammeter, or
preferably a digital micro-ammeter
with a 0 to 50 µA scale.
The micro-ammeter terminals must be
series-connected to the wire of the
sensing electrode.
Under normal operating conditions,
the value oscillates between 6÷12 µA.
The minimum value of the ionization
current for which the equipment can
“lock out” is about 1 µA.
In this case, make sure that there is a
good electrical contact and check the
degree of wear of the end part of the
electrode and the corresponding cera-
mic protection.
3.2 REGULATION THERMOSTAT
“RS” boilers are equipped with a regu-
lating thermostat with a double con-
tact having differentiated setting. This
makes it possible to obtain a reduction
of heat output before the burner goes
out completely, by means of the coil
assembly (fig. 20) installed on the gas
valve regulator.
This step-modulation system affords
the following advantages:
– higher overall boiler efficiency;
– containment within acceptable
values of the increase in temperatu-
re that takes place in the cast-iron
body (heat inertia) when the burner
goes out.
3.3 LAYOUT WITH TWO
OPPOSED BOILERS
Accessories are available on request
to permit an opposed layout of two boi-
lers which will reduce overall dimen-
sions and facilitate connection with the
flue through a single flue gas duct (figu-
res 14 - 15).
Table 2
gives the dimensions of the
two boilers combined and the diameter
of the chimney.
