18) The servomotor which regulates the fuel/air delivery starts moving; wait until the disk on which the regula-
ting screws have been fi tted, has reached an angle of about 12° (this corresponds to a space taken up by
three screws), stop the modulation and return the switch to the “O” position. Carry out a visual control of the
fl ame and proceed, if necessary, with regulating the combustion air by operating as described in point 16.
Subsequently, control combustion with the appropriate instruments and modify, if necessary, the previous
regulation carried out by visual control only. The operation described above should be repeated progressi-
vely (by moving forwards the disk by about 12° at a time) and modifying every time, if necessary, the fuel/air
ratio during the entire modulation run. Make sure that the increase in fuel delivery occurs gradually and that
maximum delivery is reached at the end of the modulation run. This is necessary in order to ensure that
modulation functions with good graduality. The positions of the screws that commend the fuel may need to
be modifi ed in order to obtain the graduality required. Maximum delivery is obtained when the return pres-
sure is about 2 ÷ 3 bar less than the delivery pressure (normally 20 ÷ 22 bar). For a correct air/fuel ratio, the
percentage of Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
) should increase with the increase in delivery (at least 10% at minimum
delivery to a maximum of 13% at maximum delivery). We advise against exceeding 13% of CO
2
to avoid
operating with a rather limited excess of air which could cause a considerable increase in smoke opacity
due to unavoidable circumstances (a variation in the atmospheric pressure, presence of dust particles in
the fan’s air ducts, etc.). Smoke opacity depends on the type of fuel utilized (the most recent provisions
indicate that it should not exceed N° 2 of the Bacharach Scale). We advise, if possible, maintaining smoke
opacity below N° 2 of the Bacharach Scale, even if, as a consequence, the CO
2
value is slightly lower. The
lower smoke opacity dirties the boiler less and therefore its average yield is normally high even when the
CO
2
value is slightly inferior. It should be remembered that, in order to regulate properly, the water in the
system should be at the right temperature and the burner should have been operating for at least 15 minutes.
If the appropriate instruments are not available, judgement can be based on the colour of the fl ame.
We advise regulating in such a way as to obtain a fl ame bright orange in colour. Avoid a red fl ame with smoke
in it, or a white fl ame with an exaggerated excess of air. After having checked the air/fuel regulation, tighten
the locking screws of the adjustable screws.
19) Control that the modulation motor functions automatically by putting the AUT - O - MAN switch in the “AUT”
position and the MIN - O - MAX switch in the “O” position. In this way, modulation is activated exclusively
by the automatic command of the boiler’s probe, if the burner is a GI...MM (modulating) version, or on the
command of the thermostat or pressure switch of the 2nd stage, if the burner is a GI...DSPG (two stage pro-
gressive) version. (See instructions “Electronic Potentiality Regulator RWF 40 for the modulating version).
Normally, it is not necessary to alter the internal settings of the Potentiality Regulator RWF 40.
20) Check the effi ciency of the fl ame detection device (photocell UV). The photoresistant cell is a fl ame
control device and, if the fl ame should be extinguished during operations, it must be capable of in-
tervening (this control should be made at least one minute after start up). The burner should be ca-
pable of blocking itself (shut down), and remaining so, if the fl ame does not appear regularly during
the start up phase within the time limit preset on the control box. The shut down causes an immedia-
te interception of the fuel, the burner comes to a standstill and the red warning light comes on.
To check the effi ciency of the photocell UV and of the shut down system, proceed as follows:
a
) Start up the burner
b
) after one minute, extract the photoresistant cell by pulling it out of its seat and simulate fl ame failure with
a dark cloth. The fl ame should be extinguished and the control box will repeat the ignition phase from the
beginning and, immediately after the fl ame appears, it will go to shut down.
c
) The control box can only be unblocked by pressing manually on the appropriate pushbutton
(unblocking). To check the effi ciency of the shut down device, carry out this control at least twice.
21) Check the effi ciency of the boiler’s thermostats or pressure switches
(this operation should stop the burner).
