    All fuel hoses should be replaced every 2 years. Use only hoses sourced from STROCO, or hoses approved by STROCO. The heater’s warranty will be void if it is fitted with hoses not approved by STROCO, or if there is no documentation of replacement of fuel hoses with 2 year intervals.
  • Page 16 Check fuel pressure; connect gauge to port ”P”.   Adjust the pressure at port ”P1”; check with pressure gauge STROCO part no. 13.902. Unsteady gauge readings are a sign of air in the intake line.  For fuel pressure, please consult the technical specifications.
  • Page 17: Description Of Functionality - Operation

    DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONALITY - OPERATION The heater can be started using the main switch on the dashboard. Alternatively, a stating clock can function as main switch. The start-up process connects control current from the installation (12V or 24V battery). The main power supply is connected directly to the heater’s control system, which controls the power supply to the heater.

  • Page 23: Combustion Unit

    COMBUSTION UNIT The combustion unit is the heart of the combustion process. It mixes air with fuel vapour, which is ignited by a spark from the coil. The flame is registered by the photoelectric sensor. Correct setting of the combustion unit is important to ensure efficient combustion: Please observe the following: Electrode settings, as per page 24.
  • Page 24: Voltage Control Of Electrodes

    VOLTAGE CONTROL OF ELECTRODES Carried out when checking the ignition coil and ignition oscillator. During ignition control, the solenoid coil connector must be disconnected. Access to the burner unit is obtained by removing the end flange of the burner, unscrewing the three 6 mm nuts, and removing the burner.
  • Page 25: Photoelectric Sensor

    Troubleshoot the photoelectric sensor using STROCO testing device part no. 35.960. The sensor voltage should be 4.9V when the combustion unit is off. When the heater is operational, the voltage should be 0V.
  • Page 26: Under/Overvoltage

    The pump is running when the fan motor is running, but fuel is not released for atomisation in the nozzle until the solenoid valve is activated. It is important that the suction line of the pump is completely tight, and that a fuel filter (Stroco type 2000) has been mounted in the suction line.
  • Page 27: Replacing The Fan Motor

    The air setting affects the fuel combustion. Black smoke = not enough air, blue/grey smoke = too much air. Check the correct air setting using STROCO soot gauge part no. 13.982 or STROCO flue gas tester part no. 13.983 For combustion data, please see technical specifications.
  • Page 28: Checking The Fuel Pump Solenoid Valve

    CHECKING THE FUEL PUMP SOLENOID VALVE The simplest way to check the field coil is using a STROCO test device part no. 35.960. The field coil should draw 0.2A-0.4A power. An audible click from the solenoid valve indicates that the field coil is activated.
  • Page 29: Operating Thermostat Sensor

    Please note: This temperature range can be selected by not connecting cable B2 to chassis earth. The simplest way to check the temperature sensor is using STROCO testing device part no. 35.960. Activate the heater and raise the operating temperature to 22-85°C. The sensor is functional if the test device displays a temperature reading.

  • Page 34: Installation In Boats

    INSTALLATION IN BOATS Fuel lines, fuel filter, melt-fuse valves, etc. Fuel lines must be made of either steel or copper, be permanently laid up and protected from me- chanical loads. Soft soldering is not allowed for any pipe joints. A fuse-melt valve must be inserted in the fuel line as close to the combustion chamber of the device as possible to disconnect the fuel flow if the outside temperature exceeds 80°C.
  • Page 35 INSTALLATION IN BOATS The sections below concern conditions to be given special consideration in connection with installa- tion in boats. General information In boats, the heater must be located as low as possible, and the exhaust must be outside. In all types of installation, the supplied circulation pump must be installed in the return line (cold).
  • Page 36 INSTALLATION IN BOATS Rooms in which fuel-burner heater are installed must be equipped with ventilation in addition to the air required for combustion. All ventilation pipes from the heater must be led separately to a free deck, and the outlet must be kept free of superstructures, ect. The upper part of pipe must be able to take up heat expansion.
  • Page 37: Warranty Conditions

    Warranty conditions for STROCO fuel-burning heaters A full service history with the heater’s number must be available to STROCO in order to settle warranty claims. The warranty may be void if the warranty card has not been properly filled in and returned to STROCO.
