Gas Burner Controls LME...
Gas burner controls for the supervision of 1- or 2-stage gas burners of small to
medium capacity (typically up to 350 kW), in intermittent operation.
The LME… and this Data Sheet are intended for use by OEMs which integrate the
burner controls in their products.
Use, features LME… burner controls are used for the startup and supervision of 1- or 2-stage gas
burners in intermittent operation. The flame is supervised by an ionization probe or
flame detector QRA… with ancillary unit AGQ3… or blue–burning flames with blue-
flame detectors QRC...
In terms of housing dimensions, the LME... are identical with the LGB… and LMG…
burner controls (refer to «Type summary»).
- Burner controls conforming to EN 298
- For gas burners with fans conforming to EN 676
- Undervoltage detection
- Air pressure supervision with functional check of the air pressure switch during
startup and operation
- Electrical remote reset facility
- Multicolor indication of fault status and operational status messages
- Limitation of the number of repetitions
- Accurate control sequence thanks to digital signal handling
- Controlled intermittent operation after 24 hours of continuous operation

Warning notes
To avoid injury to persons, damage to property or the environment, the following
warning notes should be observed!
Do not to open, interfere with or modify the unit!
•All activities (mounting, installation and service work, etc.) must be performed by
qualified staff
•Before making any wiring changes in the connection area of the LME…, completely
isolate the burner control from the mains supply (all-polar disconnection)
•Ensure protection against electric shock hazard by providing adequate protection
for the burner control’s connection terminals
•Check the connecting lines of the air pressure switch for short-circuits (connection
terminals 3, 6 and 11)
•Press the lockout reset button / operation button only manually (applying a force of
no more than 10 N) without using any tools or pointed objects
•Fall or shock can adversely affect the safety functions. Such units must not be put
into operation, even if they do not exhibit any damage
•Each time work has been carried out (mounting, installation, service work, etc.),
check to ensure that wiring is in an orderly state and make the safety checks as
described in «Commissioning notes»
Engineering notes
•When used in connection with actuators, there is no position feedback signal from
the actuator to the burner control
•When used in connection with actuators, the requirements of EN 676 must be ob-
served
•The running times of the actuators must match the burner control’s program. An
additional safety check of the burner control together with the actuators is required
•When substituting burner controls type LGB… or LMG… by LME…, the AGQ1… or
AGQ2… ancillary unit must be replaced by the AGQ3…
Mounting notes
•Ensure that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with

Installation notes
•Always run the ignition cables separate from the unit and other cables while ob-
serving the greatest possible distance
•Do not mix up live and neutral conductors
•Install switches, fuses, earthing, etc., in compliance with local regulations
•The connection diagrams show the burner controls with earthed neutral conductor.
In networks with nonearthed neutral conductor and ionization current supervision,
terminal 2 must be connected to the earth conductor via an RC unit (type reference
ARC 4 668 9066 0). It must be made certain that local regulations are complied
with (e.g. protection against electric shock hazard) since AC 230 V / 50 Hz mains
voltage produces peak leakage currents of 2.7 mA
•Make certain that the maximum permissible current rating of the connection termi-
nals will not be exceeded
•Do not feed external mains voltage to the control outputs of the unit. When testing
the devices controlled by the burner control (fuel valves, etc.), the LME… must not
be connected
•In the case of burners with no fan motor, an AGK25 must be connected to terminal
3 of the unit, or else the burner cannot reliably be started up
•For safety reasons, feed the neutral conductor to terminal 2. Connect the burner
components (fan, ignition transformer and gas valves) to the neutral distributor as
shown below in figure 7101a05. The connection between neutral conductor and
terminal 2 is prewired in the base

Wiring of neutral conductors!
Electrical connection of flame detectors
It is important to achieve practically disturbance- and loss-free signal transmission:
•Never run detector cables together with other cables
– Line capacitance reduces the magnitude of the flame signal
– Use a separate cable
•Observe the permissible length of the detector cables (refer to «Technical data»)
•The ionization probe is not protected against electric shock hazard
•Locate the high-voltage ignition electrode and the ionization probe such that the
ignition spark cannot arc over to the ionization probe (risk of electrical overloads)
and that it cannot adversely affect the supervision of ionization
•Insulation resistance
– Must be a minimum of 50 MΩbetween ionization probe and ground
– Soiled detector holders reduce the insulation resistance, thus supporting cree-
page currents
•Earth the burner in compliance with the relevant regulations; earthing the boiler
alone does not suffice

Commissioning notes
•When commissioning the plant for the first time or when doing maintenance work,
make the following safety checks:
Safety check to be carried out Anticipated response

Flame supervision with ionization is accomplished by making use of the conductivity
and rectifying effect of the flame. The flame signal amplifier only responds to the DC
current component of the flame signal. A short-circuit between ionization probe and
ground causes the burner to initiate lockout.
