NTRODUCTION This section is divided into two parts:
• The first part describes the maintenance procedures.
• The second part helps you to identify problems that may occur,
and gives advice on how to solve these problems.
Preventative maintenance is the key to a reliable, safe and efficient
system. The core of any preventive maintenance program is a list of
periodic tasks.
In the paragraphs that follow are suggestions for a monthly list and
a yearly list.
Note:
The monthly list and the yearly list are an average interval. If
your environment is dirty, then the intervals may be shorter.
Caution:
Turn off power before disconnecting or installing sensors, con-
trols or modules.
Monthly Checklist
1 . Inspect flame-sensing devices for good condition and cleanliness.
Keep the glass lens of scanners clean with a soft, damp cloth,
since small amounts of dust will measurably reduce the flame
signal strength. Wash the flame rod electrode and insulator with
soap and water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
2 . Test all the alarm systems for proper signals.
3 . Check ignition spark electrodes and check proper gap.
4 . Test interlock sequence of all safety equipment as described in
Test Procedures: manually make each interlock fail, noting what
related equipment closes or stops as specified by the manufac-
turer.
Test flame safeguard by manually shutting off gas to the burner.
