PART III: OPERATION
AIR FLOW AND FUEL ADJUSTMENT
WARNING! During commissioning operations, do not let the burner operate with insufficient air flow (danger of
formation of carbon monoxide); if this should happen, make the fuel decrease slowly until the normal combustion
values are achieved.
WARNING! the combustion air excess must be adjusted according to the values in the following chart.
(First) Start-up preliminary operations - gas supply
Recommended actions to be carried out in sequence:
1
Check the burner and all its components are installed correctly
2
Check that all electrical and mechanical parts are connected correctly
3
Check that there is water or other vector fluids in the generator
4
Check that the ventilation gates/dampers in the plant are open and the stack is free
5
Connect the gauges used to adjust and check pressures on the incoming line and on the head, air and fuel side.
6
Open the thermostatic series and the safety chain
7
Turn the main switch on the panel front with the "MAN/AUTO" selector to position "0".
8
Select the GAS mode with the fuel selector on the front of the panel (if any)
9
Check the phase and neutral position is correct
10 Open the manual shut-off valves slowly, in order to prevent any water hammers that might seriously damage valves and pressure
regulator
11 Check the sense of rotation of the electrical motors
12 Bleed the line, getting rid of all the air in the pipe as far as the main gas valve
13 Ensure the pressure entering the main valves is not excessive due to damage to or wrong adjustment of the line pressure regulator
14 Ensure the gas supply minimum pressure is at least equal to the pressure required by the pressure curves - burnt gas flow
DANGER! Venting the air from the piping must take place in safe conditions, avoiding dangerous concentrations
of fuel in the rooms. You must therefore ventilate the rooms and wait long enough for the gases to dissipate out-
side before switching on.
To ensure the proper operation of the flow sensors, the fuel/air pipes must be free of liquid residues such as oil
or water. Also, make sure that the silencer is installed on the air intake.
(First) Start-up preliminary operations - oil supply
Recommended actions to be carried out in sequence:
1
Check the burner and all its components are installed correctly
2
Check that all electrical and mechanical parts are connected correctly
3
Check that there is water or other fluids in the generator
4
Check that the ventilation gates/dampers in the plant are open and the stack is free
5
Connect the gauges used to adjust and check pressures on the incoming line and on the head, air and fuel side.
6
Open the thermostatic series and the safety chain
7
Turn the main switch on the panel front with the "MAN/AUTO" selector to position "0".
8
Select the fuel using the fuel selector on the front of the panel (if any)
9
Check the phase and neutral position is correct
10 Check the sense of rotation of the electrical motors
11 Ensure the pressure on the oil ring is not excessive for the oil pump and items of the burner.
12 Ensure the oil minimum supply pressure and temperature equal at least the values provided for in the specifications of the installed
pump
13 Run the oil pump using the CP meter (see pictures) to load the circuit, if there is no fuel supply ring. For any advice, see the pump
chapter.
