These “pins” are pressed against their seats by strong springs which are situated at the opposite ends of the rods.
The oil circulates, comes out of the atomizer unit return and arrives at the return pressure regulator. It passes
through this and reaches the pump return and from there it is discharged back into the return. Oil circulation,
as described above, should be carried out at a pressure value slightly higher (by some bar) than the minimum
pressure at which the return pressure regulator has been set (10 ÷ 12 bar). Duration of the pre-ventilation and
oil pre-circulation phase is not as foreseen by the control box, because it is effected when the air shutter is in
an open position.
The pre-ventilation and pre-circulation time is calculated by summing together the times of the following ma-
noeuvres:
- the delivery regulation servomotor’s opening stroke (fuel/air) +
- preventilation time foreseen by the control box +
- the closing stroke of the delivery regulation servomotor (fuel/air) until ignition air position.
Subsequently, the control box continues carrying out the ignition programme by connecting the ignition transfor-
mer which feeds the electrodes with high voltage.
The voltage between the electrodes primes the electric spark for ignition of the fuel/air mixture.
After the insertion spark appears, the control box carries voltage to the magnet which, by means of appropriate
levers, moves backwards the two rods which intercept the fl ow (outward and return) of light oil to the nozzle.
This moving backwards of the rods also determines a closing of the passage (by-pass) inside the atomizer unit.
Consequently, the pump pressure is taken to the normal value of about 20 ÷ 22 bar.
Deviation of the two rods the closing seat, now permits the fuel to enter the nozzle at the pressure at which
the pump has been regulated at (20 ÷ 22 bar), and comes out of the nozzle adequately atomized. The return
pressure, which determines delivery to the furnace, is regulated by the return pressure regulator.
The value of the ignition fl ow rate (minimum delivery) should be about 10 ÷ 12 bar.
The atomized light oil which comes out of the nozzle is mixed with air supplied by the fan and is then ignited by
the spark of the electrodes. Flame presence is detected by the photocell UV.
The programme proceeds and surpasses the “shut down” position, disconnects the ignition transformer and by
this point on the burner is operating at minimum output.
If the boiler thermostat (or pressure switch) of the 2nd stage allows it (regulated at a temperature or pressure
value superior to that existing in the boiler), the servomotor which regulates the delivery starts turning and de-
termines a gradual increase in the fuel delivery and in the relative combustion air until it reaches the maximum
delivery value at which the burner has been regulated.
The increase in fuel delivery is determined by a disk with a varied profi le which, by rotating, can determine a
greater compression of the return pressure regulator spring and thus an increase in the pressure itself.
When the return pressure increases, there is also a corresponding increase in fuel delivery.
There should also be an adequate increase in combustion air to meet the increase in fuel delivery. Adjustment
can be carried out at fi rst regulation by operating the screws which vary the profi le of the commend disk of the
combustion air regulator. Fuel and combustion air delivery both increase at the same time until they reach maxi-
mum value (light oil pressure at the return pressure regulator is equal to about 18 ÷ 20 bar if the pressure at the
pump is at the value of 20 ÷ 22 bar). The burner remains in the maximum delivery position until the temperature
or pressure reaches the limit set for the intervention of the boiler thermostat (or pressure switch) of the 2nd stage
and makes the servomotor regulating fuel/air delivery rotate in the opposite sense of direction, a causing gradual
reduction in fuel delivery and a relative reduction in combustion air until they reach minimum value. Should the
maximum temperature (pressure, if steam boiler), be reached even with fuel and combustion air delivery at a
minimum, the thermostat (pressure switch, if steam boiler) will intervene when the value at which it has been set
is reached, and bring the burner to a standstill. When the temperature (pressure, if steam boiler) drops below
the intervention limit of the “shut down” device, the burner will start up again as previously described.
During normal operations, the boiler thermostat / pressure switch of the 2nd stage fi tted to the boiler detects the
variations requested and automatically proceeds with adapting the fuel and combustion air delivery by inserting
the servomotor which regulates delivery (fuel/air). This will rotate in such a way as to obtain an increase or a de-
crease. In this way, the delivery regulating system (fuel/air) reaches a position of equilibrium which corresponds
to a fuel delivery and a relative combustion air delivery equal to the quantity of heat required by the boiler.
As in indication, it should be kept in mind that the fi eld of variation in output obtainable with good combustion is
from 1 to 1/3 of the maximum output given on the rating plate.
Note:
The air pressure switch must be set when the burner is started up and must be in function with the pres-
sure value verifi ed during operations with the ignition fl ame; otherwise the control box will go to “shut
down”.
