  • Page 7 S.p.A. 3.02 Checking and controlling the evacuation of combustion products (total security) The boiler is fitted with a FLUE GAS THERMOSTAT . This thermostat prevents gas from reaching the burner if the flue is not drawing properly, providing greater security and control over the discharge of combustion products.

  • Page 9 S.p.A. Note: If after having closely followed the startup procedure the burners fail to light and the reset button warning light on the electronic control unit is lit, it means that the board has locked out and you should wait about 15 seconds before pressing the reset button. After resetting, the board repeats the startup cycle.

  • Page 12 S.p.A. 5.04 Heat output variability characteristics To adjust furnace heat input, simply regulate the main burner via the gas valve (fig. 6). This in turn varies the heat output to the C.H. water. The diagrams in Fig. 8a and 8b show the variations in heat output to the water in relation to variations in burner working pressure.
