Warning notes
To avoid injury to persons, damage to property and the environment, the
following warning notes must be observed!
Do not 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, completely isolate the
plant from mains supply (all-polar disconnection). Ensure that the plant cannot be
inadvertently switched on again and that it is indeed dead. If not observed, there is
a risk of electric shock hazard
Ensure protection against electric shock hazard by providing appropriate protection
for the burner control’s connections terminals. If this is not observed, there is a risk
of electric shock
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. If this is not observed, there is a risk of loss of
safety functions and a risk of electric shock
Press the lockout reset button / operating button only manually (applying a force of
no more than 10 N), without using any tools or pointed objects. If this is not
observed, there is a risk of loss of safety functions and a risk of electric shock
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.
If this is not observed, there is a risk of loss of safety functions and a risk of electric
shock
Attention!
Earth the burner in compliance with the relevant regulations; earthing the boiler
alone does not suffice!
Mounting notes
Ensure that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with.
The ionization probe and ignition electrode must be positioned so that the ignition spark
cannot arc over to the ionization probe.

Installation notes
Always run the high-voltage ignition cables separate from the unit and other cables
while observing the greatest possible distances
Make absolutely certain that life and neutral conductors are correctly connected to
terminals 1 and 2 of the burner control; otherwise, no flame signal will be generated
Ensure that the maximum permissible current load for the connecting terminals is
not exceeded (refer to Technical data)
Install switches, fuses, earthing, etc., in compliance with local regulations
The connection diagrams shown apply to burner controls with earthed neutral
conductor. In the case of ionization current supervision in networks with
nonearthed neutral conductor, terminal 2 must be connected to the earth conductor
via an RC unit (part no. ARC 4 668 9066 0). In that case, it must be made certain
that the relevant national safety regulations are complied with (e.g. electric shock
hazard protection), since AC 230 V / 50 Hz mains voltage results in a leakage
current of 2.7 mA
Make certain that the maximum permissible current rating of the connection
terminals 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 LGA… must not
be connected
To isolate the burner control from the mains supply, use an all-polar switch with a
contact gap of at least 3 mm
Secure the earthing lug in the terminal base with a metric screw and a lockwasher
or similar
Switches, fuses, earthing, etc., must be in compliance with local regulations;
primary fuse max. 10 A slow
Connect the gas pressure switch and controller, whose contacts must be closed
from startup to controlled shutdown, in series with control thermostat or
pressurestat (R) and limit thermostat or pressure switch (W)
For safety reasons, feed the neutral conductor to the neutral distributor in the plug-
in base, or to terminal 2. Connect the burner components (fan, ignition transformer
and gas valves) as represented in the figure 7435a14, to the neutral distributor as
shown below. The connection between neutral conductor and terminal 2 is
prewired in the terminal base

Correct wiring of neutral conductors!
If the fully closed position of the main valve «BV2» shall be checked on burner
startup, the closed position contact must be included in the loop between terminals
9 and 3. In addition, the connecting links between terminals 9 and 11 and 8 and 3
must be fitted
During the startup sequence, terminal 6 carries voltage and must not be used as
an auxiliary terminal
The auxiliary contact of a gas valve for checking the fully closed position must be
included in the loop between terminals 9 and 3
During the startup sequence, terminals 9 and 6 carry voltage and must not be used
as auxiliary terminals
Connect the load controller of 2-stage burners to terminal 5 in series with «BV2»

Electrical connection of ionization probe
It is important to achieve practically disturbance- and loss-free signal transmission:
Never run the detector cable together with other cables
– Line capacitance reduces the magnitude of the flame signal
– Use a separate cable
Observe the permissible length of the detector cable (refer to «Technical data»)
The ionization probe and the ignition electrode are not protected against electric
shock hazard
Locate the 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
With ionization current supervision, the cable length for flame detection must not
exceed 20 m
Insulation resistance
- Must be a minimum of 50 Mbetween ionization probe and ground even after a
large number of operating hours
- Prerequisite for this is not only high quality heat-resistant insulation of the
electrode cable, but also of the ionization probe itself (ceramic holder!)
– Soiled detector holders reduce the insulation resistance, thus supporting
creepage currents
The burner (as the counter-electrode) must be correctly earthed, or else no
ionization current will flow
Since the burner bars form the earthed counter-electrode, the burner must be
adjusted so that the flame is hot and stable and in firm contact with the burner bars.
With pulsating flames or yellow-burning flames resulting from lack of air, a very low
or even no ionization current is generated so that the burner enters malfunction
Commissioning notes
When commissioning the plant or when doing maintenance work, make the following
safety checks:
Safety check to be carried out Anticipated response
a) Burner startup with no flame signal; for that purpose, open the
connection between burner control and ionization probe prior
to burner startup and maintain that status
Lockout at the end of «TSA»
b) Burner operation with simulated loss of flame during
operation; for that purpose, open the connection between
burner control and ionization probe during burner operation
and maintain that status
Restart, followed by lockout at the end of «TSA»
c) No air pressure signal during «t1» (only with LGA52... /
LGA63... with auxiliary fan)
No startup
d) Air pressure failure during operation (only with LGA52... /
LGA63... with auxiliary fan)

Mechanical design
The gas burner controls are of plug-in design, suitable for installation in any position on
burners, in control cabinets or on control panels.
The housing is made of impact-proof, heat resistant and flame-retarding plastic.
It is of plug-in design (measuring 91 x 62 x 63 mm, including the plug-in base) and
engages audibly in the plug-in base.
The color of plastic material of burner controls LGA are executed in black.
The housing accommodates the ...
- ... the thermal sequencing device (ambient temperature-compensated) acting on a
multiple snap action switching system,
- ... flame signal amplifier with the flame relay
- ... lockout reset button with its integrated signal lamp (splash-proof)
In the event mains voltage drops below about AC 165 V, an electronic circuit ensures
that the gas burner control will prevent burner startup or – without releasing fuel –
lockout will be initiated.
Undervoltage threshold: AC 178 V ±10 V
«TSA»: Smaller tolerance band
Flame signal amplifier: Higher sensitivity, for typical applications with pilot flames

Min. 50 M
The conductivity and rectifying effect of hot flame gases are used for flame supervision.
For that purpose, AC voltage is applied to the heat-resistant ionization probe which
projects into the flame. The current that flows in the presence of a flame (ionization
current) generates the flame signal which is fed to the input of the flame signal
amplifier. The amplifier is designed so that it only responds to the DC current
component of the flame signal, thereby ensuring that a short-circuit between ionization
probe and ground cannot simulate a flame signal (since AC current would flow in this
case).
Since the ionization current with AC 110 V burner controls is only around half of those
operating on AC 230 V, the detector voltage must be increased with a transformer in
certain cases.
Capacity of transformer: Min. 2 VA
Transforming ratio: Approx. 1.1...1.5

Function
The relevant function diagram shows the required or permissible input signals to the
control section and to the flame supervision circuit hatched (refer to Connection
diagrams).
If these input signals are not present, the burner control will stop the startup sequence to
trigger lockout where required by safety regulations.
Burner control reset
The contacts of the gas pressure switch (GP), the limit thermostat / pressure switch
(W), the control thermostat / pressurestat (R) and safety limit thermostat (SB) must
be closed, heat request
Fan motor (M) connected
Air pressure switch (LP) is in idle position
No undervoltage
Flame detector darkened, no extraneous light
An additional electronic circuit ensures that, if the mains voltage drops below
approximately AC 165 V, the burner startup will be prevented or a lockout will be
triggered.
If the connections of live conductor (terminal 12) and neutral conductor (terminal 2) have
been mixed up, the burner control will initiate lockout at the end of the safety time (TSA).
