Table 6: Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible reason
Repair
Heavy oil foam in
the float chamber
due to excessive
amounts of air
sucked in (in excess
of the possible sep-
aration capacity of
> 4 l/h).
Suction line not tight
Perform a tightness test of
the suction line (vacuum test
or pressure test).
Screw connections at the
suction side not tight
Seal the screw connections
Initial commissioning with-
out separate suction pump
Use suction pump
Suction line rating too great
Observe DIN 4755-2: Flow
rate 0.2-0.5 m/s
Burner switches off
at irregular intervals
due to malfunctions
Air accumulations in the
suction line because pipe
cross section is too great.
When the anti-siphon valve
opens after the pre-
aeration time of the burner,
a greater bubble may pass
through which causes the
burner to switch off.
