3 Function description
3.5
Control pause
After the temperature set on the control element has been
reached the heat output is reduced.The speed of the heat-
ing and combustion air blower and the delivery rate of the
metering pump are reduced.
If, at minimum heat output, the intake temperature set on
the control element is exceeded, the metering pump is
shut down and the combustion process ended.To burn off
the flame properly the blower speed falls after 20 seconds
to low-fire rate speed and then returns to the initial speed
after 15 seconds, after which it falls to the control pause
speed in 3 minutes, where it remains for the entire control
pause.
The control pause speed is 0 if an external temperature
sensor is used.
If the temperature set on the control element is exceeded
at the temperature sensor, the heater will restart.
Changes to the setting on the control element are
implemented by the control unit and heater after a delay.
3.6

Switch off

When the heater is switched off the ON control LED on the
control element goes out. If no fuel has been transported
or if the heater is in the control pause, the heater is
switched off immediately without a slow down time.
If the fuel transport has been started it is ended when the
heater is switched off.The heater is switched off using the
same method as the transition from control mode to
control pause.The heater is then switched off
automatically.
The heater may be switched on again during the slow
down time. In this case the slow down time is completed
and the heater is then restarted.
