MINIMUM GAS PRESSURE - OUTPUT
Pressure: detected at the pressure test-point 10) (fig. 1) with nil mbar into the combustion chamber.
Should the combustion chamber be pressurized, the pressure necessary will be that of the graph plus
the pressurization value.
Example: to obtain 350 kW it is necessary a gas pressure of 7 mbar and the combustion head set as indicated
at page 8.
If the combustion chamber is pressurized at 2 mbar, the pressure detected at the test-point 9) is: 7
+ 2 = 9 mbar.
If this value is too high, for very low gas pipework pressures, the gas gear 6) (page 8) could be more
open.
Do not decrease the pressure at the coupling under the values shown in the diagram.
Output: the maximum value is obtainable with gas Pci 8600 kcal/m

BURNER START-UP CYCLE
Air-purge: loosen the screw placed on the minimal gas pressure switch mounted on the gas train .
AIR PRESSURE SWITCH
The air pressure switch setting shall be carried out after having set all other
adjustments of the burner and the air pressure switch shall be at its lowest
set-point.
When the burner is operating, increase the adjustment pressure by turning
- slowly - clockwise the knob till reaching the burner lock-out.
Thereafter, turn the knob anticlockwise for 1 mbar and repeat the burner
start-up for checking the regularity: if lock-out intervenes turn the knob an-
ticlockwise for 0.5 mbar.
CAUTION:
do not turn the ionization probe, maintain the drawing position; should it be close to the ignition electrode, damage
may occur to the control box amplifier.

COMBUSTION HEAD ADJUSTMENT
Two separate adjustments have to be made: air
and gas.
These adjustments can be carried out when the
burner is still open, during the installation (see
page 2 - Fixing to the boiler).
Air setting
Loosen the two screws 1) and move the internal
part of the combustion head 2) so that its rear
edge 3) is coincident with the desired set-point on
the plate 4). Tighten the screws 1).
Gas setting
Loosen the screw 5), move the ring 6) so that the
pointer 7) is coincident with the desired set-point
8). Tighten the screw 5).
Attention:
the set-point number is the same for air and gas setting and is given by the following diagram.
Example:
the burner is installed on a boiler of 270 kW, assuming an efficiency of 90% the burner output should
be 300 kW.
From the diagram it can be seen that the air and gas settings for this rating should be no. 3.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE SERVOMOTOR
The servomotor controls the air damper and the gas
throttle valve.
It is provided with three adjustable cams controlling
the related change-over switches.
1) Red cam
2) Blue cam
3) Orange cam
4) Pointer
5) Servomotor releasing lever
Red cam: it controls the max. stroke, generally it is
positioned on 130°.
Blue cam: it controls the min. stroke and remains
always positioned on 0°, in this way,
when the burner is off the air damper is
totally closed.
Orange cam:it controls the minimal modulating pow-
er. It is set by the factory on 30°: normal-
ly this position is the most suitable for the
first ignition.
Thereafter the installer may vary this set-
ting accordingly with the installation re-
quirements.

COMBUSTION CHECKS
For the combustion adjustment we suggest to proceed in this way:
• Let the burner starts and after the flame ignites at the minimum output, disconnect the servomo-
tor by opening the connection 5)(page 1) placed on the panel.
• Thereafter proceed successively to the adjustment of the maximum, minimal outputs and to the
intermediate output.
MAXIMUM OUTPUT SETTING
Gas
• Disjoin the cam with adjustable profile 6) from the servomotor by re-setting the button 5).
• Turn manually clockwise the cam 6) till to reach the position of 130° (on the edge of the servomo-
tor) in corrispondence of the pointer 4). In this way the gas throttle valve 12) is at the max. open-
ing 90°.
• Join again the cam with adjustable profile 6) to the servomotor by pushing the button 5).
Now set the gas rate by acting on the gas setting valve.
Air
• Move the adjustable profile 7) of the cam by gradually acting on the screws 9).
MINIMAL OUTPUT SETTING
Gas
• Disjoin the cam with adjustable profile 6) by means of the button 5).
• Turn manually anticlockwise the cam till to reach the position of 30°.
• Lock it again and measure the gas rate.
If a different minimal output is desired, set free the cam with adjustable profile and turn it anticlockwise;
for a higher output turn it clockwise. When the minimal value is satisfying, set on the cam 3) the opening
value signed on the pointer 4).
Air
• Vary the profile of the cam 7) by gradually acting on the screws 9).
Be careful to not modify the part of profile controlling the air shutter at the maximum output, previously
set.
INTERMEDIATE OUTPUTS SETTING
Gas
No setting is required.
Air
It is carry out by acting on the screws 9) of the cam profile, being careful to not move those for the
minimum and maximum outputs.
When the combustion setting is ended re-connect the electrical wiring of the servomotor by plugging the
connector 5) (page 1); then lock the screws 9) by means of the cross-screws 8).

RATIO BETWEEN THE MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM OUTPUT
For a better explanation we suppose to have a burner with an adjustable output between the range 25 - 100. The
ratio between the minimum and maximum output is generally included between 1 : 4 (25 - 100) and 1 : 3 (25 - 75);
our burners leave the factory set for these ratio.
If the ratio should be reduced at 1 : 2 (25 - 50 or 50 - 100) it is advisable to re-adjust the tension rods for the air and
gas and the controlling sector of the gas throttle valve.
CONTROL OF THE GAS THROTTLE VALVE
The tension rod 11) moving the control sector of the throttle valve is
positioned - by the factory - on the hole marked 90° (90° is the moving
angle of the throttle valve when the cam with adjustable profile 6)
covers the complete angle of 130°).
When the ratio between the minimum and maximum output is
approximately 1 : 2, the tension rod shall be positioned on the hole
marked 60° (60° is the moving angle of the throttle valve when the cam
covers 130°).
If the ratio 1 : 2 is in the lower outputs range (25 - 50) the change from
90° to 60° of the tension rod will be sufficient. Should this ratio be in
higher range (50 - 100) in this case, further to position the tension rod
on 60° it shall be shortened.
Proceed as follows:
- Disjoint the articulation from the control sector.
- Screw down the tension rod on the extension.
- Reassemble the articulation on the control sector.
In this way the gas throttle valve - servomotor at 0° - is partially open.
The shortening of the tension rod shall permit the gas flow without
setting the 3rd cam of the servomotor too forward, because in this way
the turn of the cam with adjustable profile would be limited.
CONTROL OF THE AIR DAMPER
The lenght of the tension rod 13) adjusting the air damper can be varied
too.
If the air damper is moving, during the operation, into a reduced angle
(ratio 1 : 2 lower outputs range) it is necessary to extend the tension
rod.
In this way the cam profile is not too much bent.
When the burner is off proceed in this way:
- Disjoint the articulation 14) of the tension rod 13) from the lever 15).
- Extend the tension rod.
- Manually position the servomotor on 0°.
- Join the tension rod to the lever.
- Move the cam profile till the pointer placed on the air damper shaft
is at 0°.

COMBUSTION CHECKS
CO2
It is advisable to not exceed 10% of CO
2
(gas with calorific value of 8600 kcal/m
3
), in order to avoid the risk that
small changes of the adjustments due, for instance, at draught variation, may cause combustion with insufficient
air and consequently formation of CO.
CO
For safety reason the value of 0.1% (one thousand p.p.m.) must not be exceeded.
IONIZATION CURRENT
The minimum current necessary for the control box operation is 6 µA.
The burner normally supplies a higher current value, so that no check is needed.
However, if a measurement of the ionization current is required, it is necessary to disconnect the probe lead and
insert a d.c. microamperometer.
Motor lock-out
This is caused by the thermal protector relay, in case of overloading, or by the lacking of the phase.
To clear, pushdown the appropriate knob, after having removed the protective cover.
BURNER START-UP
If during operation the flame shuts off, lock-out occurs within 1 sec.

BURNER STARTING DIFFICULTIES AND THEIR CAUSES
The symbol, visible on the reading disc of the pointer, shows the kind of problem.
◆The control box does not start at the thermostats closing, because of:
- lack of gas;
- the gas pressure switch does not close the contact: bad set;
- the air pressure switch changed over in operation position;
- the control box fuse is broken;
- the servomotor does not totally change over the closing circuit in being between the terminals 11 and 8 of the
control box.
▲Stop at the start-up, because of:
- the servomotor does not change over the max. opening circuit in being between the terminals 9 and 8 of the
control box.
PLock-out
The air pressure switch does not change over, because of:
- defective contact;
- insufficient pressure of the air.
■Lock-out
Unperfect operation of the flame detecting circuit, because of:
- probe to earth;
- defective internal amplifier.
▼Stop during pre-purge phase, because of:
The servomotor does not change over the minimal opening circuit in being between the terminals 10 and 8 of the
control box.
1Lock-out due to flame signal lack; if:
- the ionisation probe is not inside of the flame;
- the probe connection to the control box is disconnected;
- the ionization current is insufficient (min. 6 µA).
❚Lock-out during operation due to:
- flame signal lack;
- no air pressure.
NOTICE
- If lock-out occurs between the start-up and the pre-ignition phase without that a symbol comes out, the cause is
the flame simulation.
- If the burner repeats continuously the start-up cycle without lock-out occurring, this is due to the “oscillation” of
the gas pressure switch caused by a setting very near to the gas network pressure, therefore the pressure
decreasing at the burner start-up is sufficient to actuate the gas pressure switch causing a new start-up.
