If during normal operation the current is less than 25 µA, the photocell is probably weak or dirty, the flame is irregular because the combustion head is dirty or the nozzle is blocked. User manual P 40 - P 120 Issue: 10.10... -
Page 26: Ignition System / Orifice
10 Fitting Instructions Page 24 Ignition System The ignition system is a vital part of your oil-fired air heater.
