Introduction

In this chapter you will find instructions on how to adjust a
system, start a system and stop a system.
■ Do not bypass any safety features. This can cause
fires and explosions.
■ Obey the safety precautions in the Safety chapter,
and read all of this chapter before starting your
system.
NOTE: Adjustment requires two guides: installation guide
235 and Datasheet 235. This chapter refers to the
component information explained in Design Guide 235.
Read this chapter thoroughly before proceeding with the
system implementation.

Putting into Operation

Preliminary Installation Checks
• Check that the main manual gas valve is closed and
then open it.
• Check that the control board temperature
parameters are correct.
• Check that the gas pressure is correctly regulated.
• Check that the main control panel switch is ON.
• Check that the kiln recirculation blower group(s) is
operating correctly.
• Check that the exhaust blower(s) is operating
correctly.
• Check that the chamber temperature is above
1382ºF (750ºC).

Adjustment Procedure

Follow these steps to adjust the ExtensoHeat system for
the first time:
1. Initial air adjustment
2. Fuel gas adjustment and regulation
3. Air balancing adjustment
4. Settings verification
■ This burner requires continuous monitoring
during the startup process and while the
temperature is below 1382ºF (750ºC). It is always
recommended to operate at higher temperatures.
NOTE: In tunnel kiln installation, start adjusting the
burners located at the beginning of the firing area

Step 1: Initial Air Adjustment

1. Close all manual and automatic gas valves
2. Fully open manual air valves for each burner.
3. Verify that the air balancing valves are 100% open on
all burners.
4. Start the blower.
5. Close the manual balancing valves next to the burner
to get 4 – 6"w.c. (10 – 15 mbar) at the burner body (Tap
A) and to achieve 30-50% of stoichiometric air.
