Air / fuel adjustment

Air/fuel synchronisation is carried out with the relevant air and
gas servomotors by logging a calibration curve by using the elec-
tronic cam.
It is advisable, to reduce the loss and for a wide calibration field,
to adjust the servomotors to the maximum of the output used, the
nearest possible to the maximum opening (90°).
The choking of the air, taking into account the maximum combus-
tion output, takes place by varying the adjustment of the combus-
tion head (vedi "Combustion head adjustment" a pag. 26.).
On the gas butterfly valve, the fuel step according to the burner
output required, with servomotor completely open, is carried out
by the pressure stabiliser on the gas train.
6.4.1

Air adjustment for maximum output

 Adjust the servomotor to maximum opening (nearly 90°) so
that the air butterfly valves are entirely open 17) Fig. 4 on
pag. 13.
6.4.2 Air/fuel adjustment and output modulation
system
The air/gas regulator and output modulation system equipping
RS/E series burners performs a number of integrated functions to
optimise burner function, in both individual installations and in
combination with other units (e.g. double furnace boiler or multi-
ple heat generators in parallel).
The basic system functions control:
1 The dosage of the air and fuel through positioning using
direct servocommands of the relevant valves eliminating the
possible play in the calibration systems with mechanical
cam lever mechanisms, used on traditional modulating
burners.
2 The modulation of the burner output in accordance with the
load required by the system, with maintenance of the pres-
sure or temperature of the boiler at the operating values set.
3 The sequence (cascade adjustment) of more than one
boiler through the suitable connection of the various units
and the activation of the internal software of the individual
systems (option).
6.4.3

Burner adjustment

The optimum adjustment of the burner requires an analysis of
flue gases at the boiler outlet.
Adjust in sequence:

1 - Output upon ignition

2 - MAX output
3 - MIN output
4 - Intermediate outputs between Min. and Max.
5 - Air pressure switch
6 - Maximum gas pressure switch
7 - Minimum gas pressure switch
6.4.4 Output upon ignition
Ignition must occur at a lower output than the max. operation out-
put. Regulations provide that the ignition output of this burner
must be equal to or less than 1/3 of the MAX operation output.
Example:
MAX operation output of 600 kW.
The ignition output must be equal to or less than 200 kW with ts
= 3s
In order to measure the ignition output:
 disconnect the plug-socket 13)(Fig. 4 on pag. 13) on the ion-
isation probe cable (the burner will fire and then go into lock-
out after the safety time has elapsed);
 perform 10 consecutive ignitions with lockouts;
 on the meter, read the quantity of gas burned:
Start-up, calibration and operation of the burner
This quantity must be equal to, or lower than, the quantity
given by the formula, for ts = 3s:
Qa (max. burner delivery) x n x ts
Vg =
Vg volume supplied in ignitions carried out (Sm
Qa ignition delivery (Sm
n number of ignitions (10)
ts safety time (sec)
Example for gas G20 (9.45 kWh/Sm
ignition output 200 kW corresponding to
200
9.45
After 10 ignitions with their lockouts, the delivery indicated on the
meter must be equal to or less than:
21.16 x 10 x 3
Vg =
3600
Air adjustment
The adjustment of the air is carried out by changing the angle of
the air damper (17) Fig. 4 on pag. 13) changing the degrees of
the air servomotor inside the electronic cam programme.
6.4.5

Maximum output

The MAX output must be set within the firing rate (Fig. 2 on
pag. 11).
Adjustment of gas delivery
Measure the gas delivery on the gas meter.
– If it is necessary to reduce it, lower the output gas pressure
via the pressure adjuster located beneath the gas valve.
– If delivery needs to be increased, increase the adjuster outlet
gas pressure.
Air adjustment
If necessary vary the degrees of the air servomotor.
6.4.6

Minimum output

The MIN output must be set within the firing rate (Fig. 2 on
pag. 11).
