Flame Presence Check; Safety Components - Riello RS 190/M Installation, Use And Maintenance Instructions

Flame inspection window
Clean the flame inspection window (Fig. 47).
Burner
Check for excess wear or loose screws in the mechanisms con-
trolling the air damper and the gas butterfly valve.
Also make sure that the screws securing the electrical leads in the
burner connections are fully tightened.
Clean the outside of the burner, taking special care with the linkag-
es joints and cam.
Gas leaks
Make sure that there are no gas leaks on the pipework between the
gas meter and the burner.
Gas filter
Change the gas filter when it is dirty.

Flame presence check

The burner is fitted with an ionisation system which ensures that a
flame is present. The minimum current for plant operation is 3 μA.
The burner provides a much higher current, so that controls are not
normally required.
However, if it is necessary to measure the ionisation current, there
are two methods:
 Flame presence check with RFGO function
– Check the level of the flame detection signal with the "Check
mode" function from the flame control: the LEDs from 2 to 6 in-
dicate the flame signal level, respectively. See "LED indicator
and special function" on page 37.
Check Mode
With burner flame on:
– hold the reset button on the flame control pressed for at least
3 sec.;
– the button colour will change from green to yellow;
– each operating status signalling LED will be compared to 20%
of the maximum brightness;
– press the reset button again (<0.5 sec) to reset the standard
operation of the signalling LEDs.Safety components.
 Flame presence check with microamperometer instru-
ment
– disconnect the plug-socket 24)(Fig. 4, page 11) on the ionisa-
tion probe cable and insert a direct current microamperometer
with a base scale of 100 μA.
Carefully check polarities!
