COMBUSTION ADJUSTMENT

In conformity with Efficiency Directive 92/42/EEC the application of the burner on the boiler, adjustment
and testing must be carried out observing the instruction manual of the boiler, including verification of
the CO and CO concentration in the flue gases, their temperatures and the average temperature of
2
the water in the boiler.
To suit the required appliance output, choose the proper nozzle and adjust the pump pressure, the
setting of the combustion head, and the air damper opening in accordance with the following schedule.
The values shown in the table are measured on a CEN boiler (as per EN 303).
