Competency to carry out the check of

combustion performance

i

IMPORTANT:

BS 6798: 2009 Specification for installation and

maintenance of gas-fired boilers of rated input not

exceeding 70kW net advises that:

- The person carrying out a combustion measurement must be

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.

• Ensure that the gas analyser is set to the correct fuel setting.

• Select the “ + ”, constant central heating with DHW

function by pressing the “

” button repeatedly, refer to

commissioning section. The boiler should fire automatically.

i

IMPORTANT:

Safe combustion can only be verified by measuring CO/

CO

2

ratio. This must not exceed the value shown in the

table opposite.

Preliminaries

Prior to, during servicing and after any maintenance or changed

parts, the following inspection must be carried out.

• The integrity of the flue system and flue seals.

Maximum rate check and adjustment

i

IMPORTANT:

To verify the maximum gas rate CO2 setting the

appliance must be checked at the maximum rate.

• Activate the test mode "P.01" and set the value to HI in order to

force the burner at P. max. See chapter "Specific adjustment >

Appliance technical settings and parameter list > Test modes".

• Wait approximately 5 minutes to read a stabilised CO

2

value.

• Check that the value is within the range specified in table in

the “check” column.
