Cleaning the boiler and burner
The body and burner must not be cleaned with chemical products or wire brushes. Special care must
be taken over all the sealing systems pertaining to the sealed chamber (gaskets, cable clamps, etc.). In
addition, it is necessary to pay attention after performing all these operations to check and carry out all
the phases of ignition and thermostat operation, the gas valve and circulation pump.
After these checks, make sure there are no gas leaks.

Combustion analysis

It is possible to analyse the combustion
through the air and flue sampling points
shown in fig. 25.
To make the measurement, it is neces-
sary to:
1) Open the flue sampling point
2) Insert the probe;
3) Press CH button
1) for 5 seconds to turn on TEST (Maxi-
mum Output) mode;
4) Wait 10 minutes for the boiler to sta-
bilize
5) Take the measurement.
6) Check boiler combustion also on minimum gas rate.
NAT GAS; CO2 Maximum reading should be 8.7 to 9.0% and at CO2 Minimum 8.5%
L.P.G; CO2 Maximum reading should be 9.5 to 10% and on Minimum 9.5%
Readings taken with an unstabilized boiler will cause measurement errors.
