COMMISSIONING
Reference should be made to the
BurnerGasControlsandAdjustment
sectionofthismanualforidentification
and location of the following
adjustments.
None of these adjustments should
be made in isolation. One
adjustment will have an effect on
another.It is thereforeessential that
the combustion quality and gas
throughput are monitored during the
commissioning procedure

Turn anticlockwise to increase and
clockwise to decrease rate.

the pilot bypass to operate.
MAIN GAS GOVERNOR
Withascrewdriverturnthe adjusting
screw to its minimum position then
turn back four complete revolutions.
Thiswill givea reduced gasflow rate
to enable further adjustments to
commence.
Note: Should the burner lockout
when establishing start and main
flames then the probable cause is
air or inert gas in the gas line. This
can be removed by purging the line
through the pressure test points
located on the gas MultiBloc.
Alternatively, there may be
insufficient pressure on the gas
governor.
SETTINGMAINFLAMEGASRATE
Switch the burner on and allow it to
establishmain flame.
Checkthe gas throughputwith agas
meter or with other approved
measuring instrument.
With a screwdriver slowly adjust the
gas governor to increase the gas
volumethroughtheburnertotherate
requiredforthe appliance.
Ensure that other appliances served
bythesamemeterareisolated when
gasthroughputs are beingadjusted.
Withthegasflowrateformainflame
setandtheburnerrunningwith stable
flame, the flue gases can now be
checkedforCO2andO2withsuitable
combustion testing instruments.
Figures of 9-10% CO2and 3-5% O2
areacceptable. Forreasons ofsafety
theCO(carbonmonoxide)shouldbe
checkedand shouldnot exceed100
ppm.
To achieve good combustion
efficiency or if the CO content is
exceeded,adjustmentsto theairand
gassettings can nowbe madewhile
theburner is runningon main flame.
ADJUSTING THE MAIN VALVE
FAST INITIAL LIFT.
B01 VALVE - The adjuster actsas a
dampertothemainvalve, controlling
therateofopeningafterinitiallift.This
adjustment is used to reduce the
volume of gas that the valve passes
during the ignition safety phase.
Switch off and restart the burner.
Notethequality ofthelight upduring
the ignition stage. If the light up is
weak, then increase the amount of
fast initial lift by turning the adjuster
anticlockwise. Turn the adjuster
clockwise if a heavy light up is
encountered. Repeat until a
satisfactory setting is achieved.
B07 VALVE - The adjuster acts to
control the rate of change between
highandlowposition.Turnthe valve
clockwise to slow down the rate and
anticlockwiseto increase therate of
change.
SETTINGLOWFLAMERATE
HIGH/LOWBURNER
(MB-ZRDLEVALVESONLY)
Low flame gas rate is achieved by
adjusting the low gas setting of the
twopositionsolenoidvalveonthegas
MultiBloc.
Turn the low gas rate adjusting ring
on the gas MultiBloc to achieve low
flame throughput (refer to Gas
Controls and Adjustments). Care
must be taken so as not to exceed
the turndown ratio for the burner
modelbeing commissioned.
AIR PRESSURE SWITCH
Located on the right side of the
burner casing viewed from the rear,
it is required to prove adequate air
flow throughout the burner operating
cycle. Flow failure at any stage fol-
lowing the first few seconds of pre-
purge will lockout the burner
To set the Air Pressure Switch :-
Switchoff the electricalsupply to the
burner.
Remove the air pressure switch
cover. Fit a manometer to the pres-
sure switch to check the actual air
pressureagainst the pressure switch
dial setting.
Switch on the electrical supply and
allow two stage burners to establish
low flame and single stage burners
to establish main flame.
Slowly turn the adjusting dial clock-
wise until the flame is extinguished.
The burner will go to lockout.
Turn the dial one division
anticlockwise and reset burner

If the burner goes to lockout repeat
theprocedure onceper burnercycle
until the start rate flame is
established.

Switchoff the electricalsupply to the
burner, replace the air pressure
switch cover and remove the
manometer.
CHECK FLAME SIGNAL
With the burner isolated, connect in
series with the ionisation probe and
the gas burner control a DC
Ammeter. Switch on the burner.
Once the flame is established, the
microammeter will record the signal
strength. (Check high and low flame
ifapplicable).Aminimumreading of
1.5µA will give reliable operating
conditions.
Readingsbelowthisfiguremay arise
from poor burner adjustment. Check
andreset if foundto be necessaryor
refer to the section inFault Finding.
Switch off the power to the burner,
remove the microammeter, and
reconnect the ionisation probe.
Checkthat allcovers tocomponents
and locking devices are properly
secured.
Check that the appliance control
instruments are set to safe limits.
Commissioning is now complete.
