A qualified engineer must ommission the applian e before
handing over to the user.
Ensure that no foreign matter is left in the system as this ould
ause damage to the applian e.
12.1 Che k that the ele tri al supply to the applian e is
swit hed off.
12.2 When ommissioning the applian e after initial installation
follow the pro edure from 12.3, otherwise remove the burner
first as des ribed in se tion 14.3.
12.3 Prepare the heating system
1. After initial installation and he king for leaks, as previously
des ribed, drain down the system suffi iently to add a flushing
agent. Flush the system in a ordan e with BS 7593:1992.
2. Refill the system
12.4 Check the Burner
1. Che k that the nozzle and ele trode settings are orre t for
the relevant burner. (See Figs. 13, 14 and 15).
2. Che k that the nozzle lies entral with the ombustion head hole.
3. Che k for any visible defe ts.
12.5 Replace the burner
1. Conne t the flexible oil supply hose to the isolating valve and
tighten suffi iently to form a good seal. Where a double pipe
system is being used fit the bypass plug, as des ribed in Fig. 6,
and onne t the oil return flexible hose to the return pipe fitting.
2. With the sponge O-ring gasket around the burner blast tube
insert the burner into the housing tube. Push the burner firmly
forward to ompress the gasket and tighten the two lo king
s rews using a 5mm Allen key.
Note: It is important that a good seal is made between the
burner and the boiler to prevent re- ir ulation of the flue gases
from the ombustion hamber to the room.
3. Re- onne t the ele tri al lead plug into the ontrol box.
12.6 Check the installation
1. Che k that the applian e is orre tly wired as des ribed in
Se tion 10.
2. Che k that all baffles are orre tly lo ated and the heat shield
is orre tly mounted (70/90 and 90/110 models only) as
shown in Fig. 16.
3. Che k that the baffle retainer is orre tly mounted (70/90
and 90/110 models only) as shown in Fig. 16.
6. Che k that the ontrol thermostat and auto reset high limit
thermostat phials are orre tly lo ated in the boiler thermostat
po ket positioned in the top front of the boiler.
7. Che k that the manual reset limit thermostat is lo ated in the
steel po ket above the ele tri al box mounting bra ket on the
front fa e of the boiler.
8. Che k that all of the air-ways to the burner are lear of any
obstru tion.
12.7 Fit a pressure gauge and manifold to the burner pump at
the point indi ated in Fig. 6 or the pressure gauge port shown in
Fig. 14 on the 70/90.
12.8 Turn on the ele tri ity to the applian e.
12.9 Blee the burner.
Single Pipe System
Release the fuel bleed port on the manifold and pla e a suitable
re epta le beneath. Turn on the boiler thermostat and allow the
burner to run through to lo kout. Wait two minutes and reset
the burner ontrol box. Repeat the pro edure at least three
times or until a steady stream of oil, without air, is exhausted
from the bleed port. Re-lo k the bleed port.
Two Pipe System
A two pipe system will automati ally vent the air ba k to the oil
tank. Turn on the boiler thermostat and allow the burner to run
through to lo kout. Wait two minutes and reset the burner
ontrol box. Repeat the pro edure until the burner fires and
runs in a steady state. This may take several attempts
depending on the oil pipe length and height.
12.10 Adjust the air shutter and pump pressure to the settings
re ommended in Tables 2 to 4. After a pre-ignition period of
approximately 15 se onds the burner should ignite. Flame
sensing is arried out by means of a photo ell mounted in the
burner body. Should the boiler fail to establish a normal firing
pattern (or should flame failure o ur during running), the
absen e of a flame is sensed and the ontrol box is monitored to
a safe lo kout ondition and the boiler is shut down. The
lo kout indi ator light/reset button in the burner ontrol box
will illuminate indi ating that the burner has gone to lo kout. In
this instan e wait two minutes and press the lo kout reset
button to initiate another start sequen e. Repeat the pro edure
until a flame is established.
Note: Persistent lo kout when running indi ates a fault and a
Servi e Engineer should be onsulted.
12.11 Run the boiler for approximately 3 minutes and swit h
off he king that there is no after-spurting from the nozzle. This
an be dete ted by oil saturation on the blast tube. If after-
spurting o urs remove the burner from the boiler, uns rew the
nozzle, and while holding the burner in a verti al position, fill
the nozzle holder with oil and refit the nozzle. Repla e the
burner and ontinue to run the boiler for three minute periods
until after-spurting stops.
Note: In order that after-spurting is redu ed to a minimum
during the ommissioning period it is re ommended that a
pressure gauge only is fitted on the external pressure gauge
port on the Ele tro Oil B11 (See Fig. 14). Use of a “T” pie e
pressure gauge manifold will in rease the oil line volume and
hen e in rease the degree of after-spurting.
12.12 Run the boiler for a further 15 minute period and then
finally fine tune the air shutter setting to give the CO2level
spe ified in Tables 2 to 4 less 0.5%CO . During this period some
smoke will be emitted due to the burning of the organi binder
in the base insulation board. Smoke readings will therefore be
ina urate at this point.
Note: A flue gas sampling point is lo ated on the boiler top
plate.
12.13 Che k that the smoke reading is in the range 0-1. If this
annot be a hieved then he k that the burner head is set
orre tly and the nozzle is in good ondition.
12.14 Che k that the flue temperature does not ex eed the
value spe ified in Tables 2 to 4. If this is the ase then he k that
the baffles are orre tly lo ated. If the baffles are orre tly
lo ated then redu e the pump pressure sin e nozzle variations
of up to + or – 15% may o ur.
12.15 Remove the oil pressure gauge and manifold and he k
all oil system joints for any signs of leakage.
12.16 Refit the abinet front panel.
12.17 Allow the burner to run for a further five minutes and
then re he k the CO2level and adjust the air setting if
required. With the abinet front panel fitted as 12.16, repeat
the previous test pro edure and Che k that the smoke
number is in the range 0-1. Repeat the fine tuning pro edure
if found ne essary.
12.18 Refit the abinet top and front panels in the reverse
order to that des ribed in Se tion 5.
12.19 When the heating ir uit has rea hed full operating
temperature he k the whole system for any leaks.
