FAULTS / SOLUTIONS

Here below you can find some causes and the possible solutions for some problems that could cause a fail-
ure to start or a bad working of the burner. A fault usually makes the lock-out lamp light which is situated
inside the reset button of the control box (9, fig. 1, page 1).
When lock out lamp lights the burner will attempt to light only after pushing the reset button. After this if the burner
functions correctly, the lock-out can be attributed to a temporary fault.
If however the lock out continues the cause must be determined and the solution found.
BURNER STARTING DIFFICULTIES
Signal
2 blinks Once the pre-purging
phase and safety time
have passed, the
burner goes into lock-
out without the appear-
ance of the flame
3 blinks The burner does not
switch on, and the
lockout appears
The burner switches
on, but then stops in
lockout
Lockout during pre-
purging phase
4 pulses The burner switches
on, but then stops in
lockout
Lockout when burner
stops
7 blinks The burner goes into
lockout immediately
following the appear-
ance of the flame
Burner goes into lock-
out during operation
