This product is designed for installation in heating control systems, to indicate the oil consumption of the
burner. Oil consumption is calculated by measuring the operating time (in h) and the preset oil flow rate (in
kg/h or l/h). The product is suitable for virtually all small and medium-sized heating systems.

REPLACING THE BATTERY
1. Remove the knurled nuts from the oil consumption indicator.
2. Loosen the four screws on the back of the oil consumption indicator.
3. Remove the back cover of the oil consumption indicator. The cover is connected to the front panel with a
cable. Carefully remove the plug.
4. The battery compartment is located on the back of the front panel. Press the retaining bracket down and
remove the button cell battery. Insert a CR2450 button cell battery into the battery compartment. The
positive terminal must point outwards.
5. Reconnect the cover’s plug to the socket on the back of the front panel. Ensure the polarity is correct.
R = Red, B = Black.
6. Check whether the display has turned itself on automatically.
ASSEMBLY
Installation must only be carried out by a qualified specialist.
Disconnect the heating system from the mains prior to installing the oil consumption indicator.
There are usually blind covers on the control panel of the heater that cover cutouts for add-on devices. The
oil consumption indicator can be installed here.
Many heating systems already provide for the option of connecting an hour meter. If that is the case, connect
those leads to the terminal strip on the back of the oil consumption indicator.
If not, cables must be laid to the burner pump. The oil consumption indicator is connected in parallel to the
pump. The polarity of the leads on the terminal strip is of no relevance here.
DISPLAY
The meter has three modes: Normal mode, FL mode (Flow Mode) and oil level mode.
To switch to FL mode, press and hold the MODE button for 3 seconds.
To switch to oil level mode, press and hold the OIL button for 3 seconds.
Direct switching from FL to oil level mode is not possible. It is always necessary to return to normal
mode before activating another mode. To return to normal mode, press and hold the MODE button
for 3 seconds.
Normal mode
a
b
c
d
In normal mode the display will show the following values:
a) Oil consumption / time elapsed (count-up)
c) Unit
b) Oil level / remaining time (count-down)
d) Oil level in percent (count-down)
You can switch between units (c) by using the MODE button. You can call up oil consumption and oil level in
kilogramme (kg) or litre (l). The display can also indicate hours (h) elapsed and remaining.
To set the up counter (a) to zero, press the MODE and RESET button simultaneously.
The (up / down) counters start counting when voltage of 100 - 240 V/AC, 50/60 Hz is supplied. Voltage
is supplied when the burner pump is in operation.
The up counter (a) can count up to 999999.99 h, kg or l.
When the meter reading has reached 999999.99 h, kg or l, the display will flash continuously.
SETTING THE OIL FLOW RATE
Set the oil flow rate of the burner in kilogramme per hour (kg/h) or in litre per hour (l/h). Normally you
should find this value on the burner’s rating plate.
1.
To store the oil flow rate in the oil consumption indicator, press the MODE button repeatedly in normal
mode until the desired unit (l or kg) shows up on the display.
2.
Press and hold the MODE button for 3 seconds to switch to FL mode and set the oil flow rate in the desired
unit (l/h or kg/h) there. When you press and hold the MODE button for 3 seconds while the unit is set to h
in normal mode, the unit in FL mode will become l/h.
3. The display view will switch to FL mode:
