5 START UP AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE BURNER

The start up and adjustment of the burner must be carried out exclusively by specialized personnel. It is fundamental
that before the first start up the person in charge of service studies in detail all the warnings contained in the
documentation supplied together with the burner, and that all the indications be strictly observed.
In order to start up the burner, position the ignition switch on “I” and wait till the end of the start-up cycle. During
normal operation the ignition switch “I-O” remains with the green light on. In case of anomaly or of burner block the
burner shuts down and the yellow lamp on the reset button goes on (see faults and anomalies section).
BEFORE OPENING THE GAS SHUTOFF VALVE, MAKE SURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY
PRESSURE IS AS EXPECTED. HIGHER PRESSURE COULD DAMAGE OR BREAK THE
DIAPHRAGMS OF THE UNITS DOWNSTREAM.
BEFORE STARTING UP THE BURNER VERIFY EVENTUAL GAS LEAKAGES FROM CONNECTING JOINTS
AND/OR VALVES.

The data shown on the chart in fig 2 are to be considered solely indicative and must be verified as
indicated in chapter 9, par. 2.
5.2 Adjustment of the incoming gas pressure

Before starting the burner, make sure that the spring

supplied with the regulator is suitable for the desired
adjustment range. Remove the cap of the filter regulator
(pos. 5 fig 2.2), set the adjustment screw at the lowest
setting (completely unscrewed), and then start up the
burner and while checking the adjustment pressure, turn
the adjustment screw until the desired pressure is
obtained (within the burner operating range). Upon
completion of the adjustment, put the cap back on the
filter regulator.
5.3 Adjustment of the PILOT FLAME

5.4 Setting of the process air pressure switch
The process air switch reads the differential pressure

between the total pressure and the static pressure in the
point of installation of the burner.
In case of absence or insufficient air flow, it stops the
burner, bringing it to lock out position. Setting is factory
made and sealed at a value of 0.9mbar. The setting may
be modified according to certain specific operating
conditions to values between a minimum of 0.6mbar and a
maximum of 1.2mbar; the installer will then have to
provide to seal the setting again.
5.5 Setting of GAS maximum pressure switch
The gas maximum pressure switch reads the gas pressure

before the main valve; in case of excessive pressure it
intervenes cutting off the burner.
The setting is factory made and sealed at the value of
40mbar
5.6 Setting of GAS minimum pressure switch (OPTIONAL)
The gas minumum pressure switch reads the gas pressure

before the main valve; in case of excessive low pressure it
intervenes cutting off the burner.
The setting is factory made and sealed at the value of
5mbar

5.7 Positioning and Setting of the SAFETY THERMOSTAT
The safety thermostat reads the temperature of the air

heated by the burner; in case of excessively high
temperature it intervenes cutting off the burner.
The setting is carried out by the installer and set at the
value of 125°C
It is to be installed in the connecting duct between the hot

air generator and the area to be heated. It must not be in
direct contact nor in proximity of the burner flame.
5.8 Description of BURNER CONTROLS

5.9 Verification of the ionization current
With the burner off, install a microammeter in min 25µA

direct current (DC) and 0÷100 µA scale.
With the burner on, and correctly adjusted, the value
measured should be stable and never lower than 25
µA.
6 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS DURING USE
6.1 Operating controls
To start the burner turn the switch 0-I to position I; when the green lamp in the switch goes on, the burner is also on.
To reset any block position, indicated by the yellow lamp on the reset button, press the reset button.
6.2 Safety and control devices fitted on the burner
• Flame supervision device: by means of a ionisation probe that through a ionisation current detects the
presence of a flame. Valve reaction time after signal from control device LGB21 is less than 1 second.
• Device for the control of the process air: -by means of a pressure switch (set at 0.6 mbar) which detects
the flow of process air by reading the differential pressure. The pressure switch locks out the burner in case the air
flow becomes lower than a minimum level set at approx. 12000 cu.m/h.
• Gas supply line control: this prevents burner ignition or shuts down the burner as a safety measure if a pre-set
pressure is exceeded. If the high pressure switch signals too high pressure, the unit switches to stand-by, the
valves lock in the closed position and the cycle will not continue
• Device for the control of the air temperature: it prevents the air heated by the burner from reaching
conditions of overheating; it stops the burner in conditions of safety in case a set temperature level is exceeded.
Over the maximum level it intervenes locking out the burner.
WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SWITCHED OFF IT IS ADVISABLE TO CLOSE THE

SHUTOFF VALVE UPSTREAM.
HIGH VOLTAGE: Any work on the electric wiring must be done only by
specialised, authorized personnel, as it is possible to cause serious damage
to the components and to persons.
BEFORE SERVICING CUT OFF THE POWER SUPPLY TO THE BURNER AT
THE MAINS

7 MAINTENANCE
Only qualified personnel who have first studied the procedures in this documentation may service the equipment. These
procedures are aimed at conserving the value, reducing wear and tear and extending the life of machines and
installations. Cleaning will be done in accordance with the provisions of law and following the instructions in the
documentation provided. In order to maintain operating efficiency, it is obligatory to have ARIA-C authorized personnel
do regular servicing at least once a year.
In case of extraordinary maintenance, for example replacement of valves or pipe joints, it is necessary that a leakage test
be carried out. Such operations must be carried out exclusively by authorized and expert personnel. The test must be
carried out with gas pressure no less than 1,5 times the maximum operating pressure in any point, with a minimum level
of 50 mbar.
Adequate methods for this type of leakage test are, for example, foam generating liquids, control of pressure drop, etc.
7.1 Burner body servicing
A) SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM COMPLETELY, CUTTING OFF THE POWER SUPPLY SO THAT NO ACCIDENTAL
IGNITION CAN OCCUR DURING SERVICING.
B) WAIT TILL THE BURNER HAS COOLED DOWN. THE USE OF INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT SUCH
AS GLOVES, PREFERABLY LEATHER, IS ADVISED.
C) CHECK THE BURNER CAREFULLY, INCLUDING THE INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PARTS OF THE MIXING
PLATES AND THE BURNER BODY. USE A STEEL BRUSH TO REMOVE ANY DEPOSITS OR BUILD-UP OF

The verification of the maximum heating power may be carried out in two ways: by checking the amount of
gas consumed by reading the value on the gas meter, or by checking the temperature rise obtained by the
burner.
Verification of gas flow per hour: Verification of the highest possible temperature rise:
In order to carry out the measurement of the gas In order to carry out the verification of the
flow, it is necessary to have a meter (make sure that temperature rise it will be necessary to have two
