Boiler won't fire up red light on flame symbol with line across

The E.C.A. Fortius boiler won't fire up when the red light on the flame symbol is on with a line across because this indicates a lockout condition. Lockout conditions, such as no flame, false flame, over-temperature failure, or APS (Air Pressure Switch) faults, disable heat demands. To clear the lockout, the reset push-button must be held for 2 seconds. If the problem persists, a qualified service technician should be contacted.

MICROCONTROLLER BOARD (MAIN BOARD) The main board operates on 230 VAC, 50 Hz and drives gas valve, fan, pump and (in monothermic types) 3 way electric valve. Dynamic air pressure test takes place before every ignition cycle. Limit thermostat ensures extra safety level. Flame in the burner is checked regularly. The main board provides all the functionality and safety of the boiler.

fig. 2 Gas Valve BURNER The gas coming from the gas valve is fired in the burner. 13 blade burners are used in 24 kW boilers while 15 blade burners are used in 28 kW boilers. Some of the common specifications of these two burners are shown in the table below.
HEAT EXCHANGER Heat exchanger is the component which enables transferring the energy produced by the burning of the gas to the water circuit. Different heat exchangers are used in bithermic (24 kW) and monothermic (24 / 28 kW) models. In bithermic heat exchangers which have two water inlets and two water outlets, both central heating and domestic hot water circuits are heated.
Page 16
fig. 4b Monothermic Heat Exchanger HYDROBLOCK Two different types of hydroblocks are used in bithermic and monothermic types. Hydroblock consists of different components depending on the boiler model. The bithermic hydroblock has pump, pressure relief valve (3 bar), discharge tap, filling tap, water pressure switch and water flow sensor on it.

Page 19
PUMP Pump enables the central heating water circulation in monothermic and bithermic types. Also in monothermic types, it enables heating the domestic water passing through the plate heat-exchanger by causing the central heating water short circuit circulation. Pump is located on the hydroblock and has 3 speed stages. The pump has expansion vessel and termomanometer connections and also an automatic air vent on it.
Page 20
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE (3 BAR) Pressure relief valve (3 bar) protects the central heating circuit and the appliance against increasing pressure. When the pressure in the central heating circuit is over 3 bars, the relief valve functions and decreases the pressure (the outlet tap of the 3 bar relief valve should be connected to the drain line with a plastic hose).
fig. 9 Water Pressure Switch PLATE HEAT-EXCHANGER Plate heat-exchanger is the secondary heat-exchanger used in monothermic types for heating the domestic water. In need of domestic hot water, the 3 way electric valve sends the central heating water from the primary heat-exchanger to the plate heat-exchanger. Heat of the central heating water is transferred to the domestic water in the plate heat-exchanger.
Page 22
fig. 11 Water Flow Sensor CENTRAL HEATING AND DOMESTIC HOT WATER (NTC) TEMPERATURE SENSORS The central heating and domestic hot water temperature sensors are NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) type. In NTC sensor, temperature and sensor resistance are inversely proportional; the sensor resistance decrease as temperature increases and vice versa.

LIMIT THERMOSTAT The limit thermostat used is bimetal type. When water CH from the heat-exchanger exceeds 105°C, the limit thermostat opens and cuts the signal sent to the main board and ensures safety. When the water temperature is below 75 °C, the limit thermostat closes enabling the boiler to operate again after the reset.
Page 25
DIFFERENTIAL AIR PRESSSURE SWITCH (APS) Differential air pressure switch is used in room sealed fan assisted models. It controls the air flow by measuring the pressure differences of the clean air required for burning and flue gas. In case of problems like blockage in the air/flue kit or a strong outer air flow, the air pressure switch shuts down the boiler.

Fan enables taking the clean air required for combustion to the combustion chamber and disposing of flue gas in room sealed fan assisted boilers. Table 18 Fan Maximum Power Interior diameter of silicon hose connected to APS 5 mm fig. 18 Fan TERMOMANOMETER Termomanometer displays the water temperature and water pressure of the central heating circuit.
MODES OF OPERATION a) Stand-by Mode: when there is no heat demand for central heating or domestic hot water. b) Domestic Hot Water (DHW) Mode: when there is need for DHW (hot water tap is opened), the hall effect sensor on the water flow sensor detects the water flow and signals the main board for DHW delivery.
Page 29
- Domestic hot water can be obtained between 35°C and 60°C. - Domestic hot water safety temperature is 75°C. If the temperature detected by DHW sensor is above 75°C, DHW operation will stop (burner goes off). - DHW operation is possible even if CH anti-cycling time is active. - During DHW operation, min.-max.
Page 30
- When there is CH demand, ignition starts and ignition state continues until flame is present. - When the ignition state is over, the boiler will operate in normal modulation and reach the set point within the time defined with slope (°C/min). After that, modulation continues. - If the central heating water temperature exceeds 95°C in CH mode, over temperature error (electronic limit) occurs and the boiler will remain in this error mode till water temperature drops to a safe level (80°C).
Page 31
- Bithermic & Winter Mode: pump runs for the defined over run time (3sec). This is for transferring the remaining energy to the CH circuit. - Bithermic & Summer Mode: if the temperature detected by the CH temperature sensor is more then 75°C, the pump will run for 1 sec., otherwise it will not run.
GAS TYPE CONVERSION : Gas type conversion from LPG to natural gas or from natural gas toLPG must be carried out only by qualified person. - Gas type conversion can be divided in 3 sections: gas pressure adjustments, replacement of the burner injectors and jumper adjusment.
Page 33
fig. 19 Replacement Of The Burner Injectors WARNING:Keep the gas valve on the boiler and electricity supply closed during replacement of the burner injectors. - Shut off the boiler by turning the ON/OFF switch to OFF position and turn off the gas valve on the boiler.
WARNING: In case of gas leak, fire or explosion hazard, property damage, severe injury or death can happen. Therefore, gas leak test must be performed by qualified person after gas type conversion. GAS LEAK TEST Apply a rich soap and water solution to the surface of all pipe connections. Bubbles indicate a gas leak In case of gas leak, tighten the pipe connection.
