15 Gas conversion adjustments

In order to operate with a gas other than that provided from the

factory, it is necessary to make some adjustments to the gas

valve.

This conversion should only be carried out by a competent person

approved at the time by the Health and Safety Executive.

• During the conversion to Propane, use of a suitable flue gas

analyser is necessary.

The person carrying out a combustion measurement should have

been assessed as competent in the use of a flue gas analyser and

the interpretation of the results.

The flue gas analyser used should be one meeting the

requirements of BS7927 or BS-EN50379-3 and be calibrated in

accordance with the analyser manufacturers’ requirements.

Competence can be demonstrated by satisfactory completion

of the CPA1 ACS assessment, which covers the use of electronic

portable combustion gas analysers in accordance with BS 7967,

parts 1 to 4.
