DESCRIPTION OF MODULATING OPERATIONS WITH LIGHT OIL (See BT 8714/2)
The burner’s control box (cyclic relay) is connected by operating panel switch ( I ).
Control box specifi cations
The cyclic relay control box carries out the ignition programme by starting up the fan motor and thus the pump
in order to effect the pre-ventilation and light oil pre-circulation phases.
It is necessary that the air pressure supplied by the fan is suffi cient to cause the intervention of the relative
pressure switch, if not, the control box will go to “shut down”.
Oil from the pump reaches the atomizer unit and circulates within it because the passages leading to the outward
and return nozzles are closed. This closure is carried out by “closing pins” applied to the ends of the rods.
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 manoeuvres:
- the delivery regulation servomotor’s opening stroke (fuel/air) +
- pre-ventilation 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 from
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 then
connects the delivery regulation circuit (fuel/air). The servomotor which regulates delivery (fuel/air) commands an
increase in the delivery of fuel and combustion air at the same time. 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 maximum 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).
