result in shortness of breath and symptoms
of suffocation. These symptoms quickly
disappear if the sufferer breathes in ordinary
air or oxygen. Naturally, it is inadvisable to
inhale either LPG or exhaust fumes. To
make it easier to detect gas leaks, a
substance with a distinctly rank smell has
been added.
Combustion
Complete combustion of LPG only generates
carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapour, just
like the air we exhale. A good supply of air
is essential to ensure complete combustion.
The centre of the flame should be
blue/green. LPG is extremely
environmentally compatible and does not
generate any soot during complete
combustion.
It can be stored in cylinders for an unlimited
time period, without any deterioration of
quality.
Pressure
The LPG burner usually works at a lower
pressure than that in the cylinder. The most
common pressure is a low pressure (0-50
mbar), which is created by allowing the gas
to pass through a reduction valve. There is
also intermediate pressure (50 mbar-2.0 bar)
and, finally, high pressure (over 2.0 bar),
which is unreduced pressure mainly used in
camping equipment. Low pressure and
intermediate pressure are always reduced
pressure.
FAULT FINDING
The boiler does not start
1. No LPG?
2. Is the main tap fully open?
3. If the boiler has not been operated for
some time, or if the gas cylinder has been
changed, it may take longer than normal
to light the boiler.
4. Check that the boiler is connected to the
electricity supply (> 11 V).
5. Check that the fuse (T) for the boiler is
intact.
6. Check whether the overheating protection
has been tripped by unscrewing the black
plastic cap (U) and pressing the reset
button (V).
NB! If the overheating protection has
been tripped it cannot be reset until the
boiler has cooled down by 10-20°C.
Before restarting the boiler, check that it
has been properly bled.
7. Check whether the red LED on the
control panel has gone out. If not, switch
off the boiler. Wait 30 seconds and then
try restarting it.
8. Check that the boiler's electrical
connections are properly attached.
9. If none of these help, please contact a
service company.
The heating cartridge is not working
1. Check that there is an electricity supply
(230 V~) to the heating cartridge.
