ESCRIPTION
The Hamwor hy DRL series of ho wa er s orage
hea ers can also be supplied wi h fully au oma ic
con rols. The fully au oma ic con rol provides a
safe ligh -up and shu down programme for he
burner, flame de ec ion being based on he well
known rec ifica ion principle.
When he con rolling hermos a calls for hea a
high energy spark is produced a he spark
elec rode and he compac gas con rol valve
(see Fig 1) is energised o es ablish a gas flame
on he burner bars.
Failure o es ablish and de ec flame during a
s ar -up a emp resul s in lockou af er he expiry
of he nominal 5 seconds igni ion safe y ime.
Flame failure during a `run' resul s in an

Failure o es ablish and de ec flame during a
re-ligh a emp resul s in lockou af er he expiry
of he 5 seconds safe y igni ion ime. A false
flame signal a he s ar poin and during he 13
seconds wai ing ime prior o he in roduc ion of
he spark causes he con rol box o lockou .
These wa er hea ers are very similar o he basic
range of permanen pilo models and for general
informa ion concerning echnical da a, wa er

commissioning ins ruc ions in he main manual
500001001.
The basic differences be ween he permanen
pilo , na ural gas models and he fully au oma ic
versions are as follows:-
1) The Honeywell V4410 sof li e gas con rol
valve is replaced by a Dungs MB DLE 407 B01
compac gas con rol valve on he DR70L and
DR90L (see Fig 1), and a VR4601 compac
valve on he DR35L and DR50L - These valves
incorpora e slow opening o produce a low
