DOMINA OASI F 24 - 30 E FERELLA BOIL F 24 - 30 MEL KEA AIR COMPACT E 2.4 Burner unit Operation The burner unit comprises a manifold and 12/16 nozzles (depending on the capacity), the burner mount, electrodes and the burner assembly. Manifold - nozzles The valve sends gas at a suitable pressure to the manifold, which homogeneously distributes the gas to the single burner stages at the nozzles.
DOMINA OASI F 24 - 30 E FERELLA BOIL F 24 - 30 MEL KEA AIR COMPACT E Detection electrode Made of the same material as the ignition electrode, it is set 11 mm from the burner head. Combustion causes the flame atmosphere to ionize, making it conductive.
DOMINA OASI F 24 - 30 E FERELLA BOIL F 24 - 30 MEL KEA AIR COMPACT E 2.5 Fume circuit Fume deflector and manifold All forced-flow boilers have a fume deflector above the exchanger whose main task is to make the secondary air crossing the burners uniform, making the flame homogeneous and stable.
DOMINA OASI F 24 - 30 E FERELLA BOIL F 24 - 30 MEL KEA AIR COMPACT E Air pressure switch This is used to check whether the fumes are adequately evacuated. The pressure switch compares the static and dynamic signals coming from the pressure test points on the fan according to the figure. The pressure switch is connected to the card and is normally open (see diagram).
The current standards and local regulations must be observed. This C-type unit must be installed using the fume exhaust and suction ducts supplied by FERROLI S.p.A. in accordance with UNI-CIG 7129/92. Failure to use them automatically forfeits all warranty and liability of FERROLI S.p.A.
