Operating position
The burner is designed to operate only in
positions 1, 2, 4 and 5 (Fig. 11).
Installation 1 is preferable, as it is the only
WARNING
one that allows the maintenance operations
as described in this manual.
Installations 2, 4 and 5 allow operations to be
performed, but make maintenance and
inspection of the combustion head more diffi-
cult.
All the positions require the installation of the
gas valve with coils facing upwards or hori-
zontally (Fig. 11).

Head length
The length of the head must be selected according to the indica-
tions provided by the manufacturer of the boiler, and in any case
the combustion area must be greater than the thickness of the
boiler door complete with refractory.
The burners cannot be used on flame inversion
boilers.
WARNING
It is possible to insert a protective device made of refractory
material between the combustion head and the boiler refractory.
This protective device must allow the blast tube to be taken out
(Fig. 13).
Do not insert the protection in line with the elec-
trode unit, as this would compromise its good op-
eration.
